SWIG version 2.0.9 uses fully qualified module names despite of the
importing module being in the same package as the imported
module. This has the unfortunate consequence of causing the following
error when importing m5.internal.event:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "src/python/importer.py", line 75, in load_module
exec code in mod.__dict__
File "src/python/m5/__init__.py", line 35, in <module>
import internal
File "src/python/importer.py", line 75, in load_module
exec code in mod.__dict__
File "src/python/m5/internal/__init__.py", line 32, in <module>
import event
File "src/python/importer.py", line 75, in load_module
exec code in mod.__dict__
File "build/X86/python/swig/event.py", line 107, in <module>
class Event(m5.internal.serialize.Serializable):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'internal'
When 'event' is loaded, it triggers 'serialize' to be loaded. However,
it seems like the dictionary of 'm5' isn't updated until after
__init__.py terminates, which means that 'event' never sees the
'internal' attribute on 'm5'. Older versions of SWIG didn't include
the fully qualified module name if the modules were in the same
package.

This is the gem5 simulator.

Short version:
External tools and required versions
To build gem5, you will need the following software:
g++ version 4.3 or newer.
Python, version 2.4 - 2.7 (we don't support Python 3.X). gem5 links in the
Python interpreter, so you need the Python header files and shared
library (e.g., /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so) in addition to the interpreter
executable. These may or may not be installed by default. For example,
on Debian/Ubuntu, you need the "python-dev" package in addition to the
"python" package. If you need a newer or different Python installation
but can't or don't want to upgrade the default Python on your system,
see http://www.gem5.org/Using_a_non-default_Python_installation
SCons, version 0.98.1 or newer. SCons is a powerful replacement for make.
If you don't have administrator privileges on your machine, you can use the
"scons-local" package to install scons in your m5 directory, or install SCons
in your home directory using the '--prefix=' option.
SWIG, version 1.3.34 or newer
zlib, any recent version. For Debian/Ubuntu, you will need the "zlib-dev" or
"zlib1g-dev" package to get the zlib.h header file as well as the library
itself.
m4, the macro processor.
4. In this directory, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one
of ALPHA, ARM, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version
of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture.
If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org
WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT)
-------------------------
The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
- gem5:
- 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.
