2005-09-05Regression tests now run under scons!Steve Reinhardt
For example, 'scons ALPHA_SE/test/opt/quick' will build ALPHA_SE/m5.opt if necessary and run all the self-identified "quick" tests on it. Other possibilities: - Run just test1: scons ALPHA_SE/test/opt/test1 - Run all tests: scons ALPHA_SE/test/opt - Run all tests on debug build: scons ALPHA_SE/test/debug - Update test1 reference outputs in m5-test: scons update_ref=y ALPHA_SE/test/opt/test1 The proper tests will be selected based on the setting of FULL_SYSTEM, ALPHA_TLASER, etc. README: Update directions to use scons-based test invocation. SConscript: Return list of generated build environments to SConstruct so it can associate tests with each of them. Set 'M5Binary' attribute on each env to record name of generated binary to be tested. build/SConstruct: - Support invoking m5-test tests via scons. - Add new non-sticky option category, for 'update_ref'. - Move existing "sticky" option definitions out of build_dir loop. Someday we can generate help text from these. - Make 'CC' and 'CXX' sticky options; use environment vars as defaults if available. - Make config builder more scons-y. python/m5/__init__.py: Make AddToPath() correctly handle relative path arguments. Assumes that sys.path[0] has the directory where the current Python file lives; new m5execfile() function sets this up properly for exec'd files. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : 48896688592e210d8e63f96c34e57474853d0e66
2005-08-19A few minor fixes to get things to build on Cygwin.Steve Reinhardt
README: Clarify cygwin EIO error explanation. build/SConstruct: Cygwin header files cause uninitialized var warnings. dev/ide_ctrl.cc: Get rid of unnecessary byte-swap calls, some of which were too ambiguous for cygwin (or gcc 3.4.4). dev/pcidev.cc: Disambiguate arg for overloaded byte swap operation (and fix it to be the correct one). --HG-- extra : convert_revision : be37c6315aacbec6332b1d09e726b39b4aa18dce
