30# Script to simplify using rundiff on trace outputs from two
31# invocations of m5.
32#
33# Note that you need to enable some trace flags in the args in order
34# to do anything useful!
35#
36# If you want to pass different arguments to the two instances of m5,
37# you can embed them in the simulator arguments like this:
38#
39# % tracediff "m5.opt --foo:bar=1" "m5.opt --foo:bar=2" [common args]
40#
41
42if (@ARGV < 2) {
43    die "Usage: tracediff sim1 sim2 [--trace:flags=X args...]\n";
44}
45
46# First two args are the two simulator binaries to compare
47$sim1 = shift;
48$sim2 = shift;
49
50# Everything else on the command line is taken to be an m5 argument to
51# be given to both invocations
52$simargs = '"' . join('" "', @ARGV) . '"';
53
54# Redirect config output to cout so that gets diffed too (in case
55# that's the source of the problem).
56$simargs .= " --root:config_output_file=cout";
57
58$cmd1 = "$sim1 $simargs --stats:text_file=tracediff-$$-1.stats 2>&1 |";
59$cmd2 = "$sim2 $simargs --stats:text_file=tracediff-$$-2.stats 2>&1 |";
60
61# This only works if you have rundiff in your path.  I just edit it
62# with an explicit path if necessary.
63$fullcmd = "rundiff '$cmd1' '$cmd2' 2>&1 > tracediff-$$.out";
64
65print "Executing $fullcmd\n";
66system($fullcmd);
