h-chal's fork of ChampSim

This is a fork of a fork of ChampSim.

KatyT12 forked ChampSim to allow branch predictors to be written in Bluespec SystemVerilog.

I have forked that work to make it work on my machine. In the future I may copy her approach to allow other ChampSim functionality to be modelled with BSV, e.g. prefetching.

All of my branches start with h-chal/.

The README for ChampSim can be found here.

Instructions

• Install bsc (which I believe includes bluesim)
• Use vcpkg

git submodule update --init
vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
vcpkg/vcpkg install

• Download a trace e.g. wget -P ~/diss/traces/DPC-3 https://dpc3.compas.cs.stonybrook.edu/champsim-traces/speccpu/600.perlbench_s-210B.champsimtrace.xz
• make
• bin/champsim --warmup_instructions 2000000 --simulation_instructions 5000000 ~/diss/traces/DPC-3/600.perlbench_s-210B.champsimtrace.xz
