Aug. 15, 2006: m5_2.0_beta
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Major update to M5 including:
|
|
- New CPU model
|
|
- New memory system
|
|
- More extensive python integration
|
|
- Preliminary syscall emulation support for MIPS and SPARC
|
|
This is a *beta* release, meaning that some features are not complete,
|
|
and some features from M5 1.X aren't currently supported (e.g., MP
|
|
coherence). We are working to address these limitations and hope to
|
|
have a complete 2.0 release soon.
