====== Compiling the Simplescalar Simulators ======

I tried these on my windows machine with cygwin32, but it should work on a linux machine too.

Get the modified Simplescalar sources, myss.tbz from here: [[http://www.eecg.toronto.edu/~moshovos/ACA/SStools|SStools]].

Unpack it (I assume you already installed the toolchain, created a subdirectory ACA, and a compiled a test binary named hello):

''cd ~/ACA;\\
bunzip2 -c myss.tbz | tar xvf -
''

The simulator is already configured to use the PISA instruction set. Let's compile the OOO core simulator:

''make sim-outorder''


Let's test it:

''sim-outorder ../hello >& out''

Open the out file and look for the  following lines:

''sim: \*\* starting performance simulation \*\*\\
Hello!
''

There will be oodles of statistics following that line. 

Congrats all is working :) Or it seems that it is...
