Rewrite the SCons script responsible for launching tests to use the new test framework. The biggest visible change after this changeset is that SCons no longer produces a "status" file in test build directories. Instead, it creates a status.pickle file. That file can be inspected using the new tests.py script. Another visible change is that timed out tests are now reported as failed rather than a using a separate summary message. Since the pickle file will remain in the build directory after running tests, it's now possible to convert the test results into other formats. For example: ./tests/tests.py show --format junit -o junit.xml \ `find build/ -name status.pickle` To better facilitate running outside of scons, there is now a set of targets that generate test listings that can be used by the test script. There are currently three targets, quick.list, long.list, and all.list. For example: scons build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list for F in `cat build/ARM/tests/opt/all.list`; do ./tests/tests.py run build/ARM/gem5.opt $F done Change-Id: I2c0f8ca0080d7af737362e198eda4cb3a72e6c36 Signed-off-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Curtis Dunham <curtis.dunham@arm.com> |

This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/Introduction, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options. With the simulator built, have a look at http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use gem5. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at http://www.gem5.org/Download If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
