Hi Daniel,<div><br></div><div>I did the arm_gem5 port as part of my bachelor's thesis. It's different from the other arm port(s) in that it targets ARMv7 whereas the other ports target ARMv5, so depending on what you want to do this might be an important criteria. </div>
<div>Multi-core isn't supported by any ARM port yet, but I'm currently working on it for the arm_gem5 port. However I can not guarantee that I'm able to finish it. A lot of changes are currently made to arm_gem5 so expect it to change a lot in the next 1-2 months (they aren't pushed to the public repo since I'm actively working on it locally).</div>
<div>May be we can give you better advice if you tell us what you intend to do with your work.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Samuel<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 4:39 PM, Kornilios Kourtis <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kornilios.kourtis@inf.ethz.ch" target="_blank">kornilios.kourtis@inf.ethz.ch</a>></span> wrote:<br>

arm_gem5 targets an ARMv7-a simulated by Gem5.<br>

Without knowing the goals of your work, this is a somewhat difficult<br>
question to answer. Note, however, that arm_gem5 is very much work in<br>
progress and is in many ways incomplete (e.g., booting multiple cores is<br>
currently not supported AFAIK).<br>

I haven't tried that.<br>
