This is release 2.0 of the M5 simulator. For information about building the simulator and getting started please refer to: http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/ Specific Pages of Interest are: http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/wiki/index.php/Compiling_M5 http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/wiki/index.php/Running_M5 If you have questions, please send mail to m5sim-users@lists.sourceforge.net. WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT) ------------------------- The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - m5: - src: source code of the m5 simulator - test: regression tests - ext: less-common external packages needed to build m5 - system/alpha: source for Alpha console and PALcode To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled console, PALcode, and kernel binaries and one or more disk images. These files are collected in a separate archive, m5_system_2.0.tar.bz2. This file is included on the CD release, or you can download it separately from Sourceforge. M5 supports Linux 2.4/2.6, FreeBSD, and the proprietary Compaq/HP Tru64 version of Unix. We are able to distribute Linux and FreeBSD bootdisks, but we are unable to distribute bootable disk images of Tru64 Unix. If you have a Tru64 license and are interested in obtaining disk images, contact us at m5-dev@eecs.umich.edu. The CD release includes a few extra goodies, such as a tar file containing doxygen-generated HTML documentation (html-docs.tar.gz), a set of Linux source patches (linux_m5-2.6.8.1.diff), and the scons program needed to build M5. If you do not have the CD, the same HTML documentation is available online at http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/docs, the Linux source patches are available at http://m5.eecs.umich.edu/dist/linux_m5-2.6.8.1.diff, the scons program is available from http://www.scons.org, and swig is available from http://www.swig.org.
