Hello,

The M5 team would like to announce the availability of the second beta
for m5 2.0.  This release is a major bugfix release over the previous beta
and should hopefully fix many of the problems that people have been
experiencing.

Some highlights:

  • Many cache issues resolved
  • Uni-coherence fixes in full-system
  • Proper LL/SC Support
  • Draining/Switchover
  • Functional Accesses
  • Bus now has real timing
  • Single config file for all SpecCPU2000 benchmarks
  • Several other minor bug fixes and enhancements

Outstanding issues for 2.0 release:

  • Multiprocessor linux boot using the detailed O3 CPU model

You can get the beta on the download page:

Please give us feedback so we can get a solid 2.0 release.

Thanks!
