Contents
Highest priority
- Flesh out and debug 64-bit modern ISA (what's needed by users)
- FS-mode core timing issues
- Debug TimingSimpleCPU issues?
- In-order pipeline core model support
- Out-of-order core model (O3) support
- Multiprocessor timing support: need to enforce atomicity of locked mem ops in timing cache models
- Ruby and M5 classic?
- Performance correlation
- With real hardware and/or existing correlated simulator
- Micro-op counts for functional implementation
- Timing for out-of-order core (requires O3 support)
- Complete x87 support
- AVX support
Useful but not strictly necessary
- Split up ISA output for faster compiling
- Improve ISA description language support for x86
To do eventually but not right away
- ACPI support
- KVM-based fast functional CPU model
- Virtualization extensions support (AMD SVM, etc.)
Could be done but might never happen
- other OS support (OSX, Windows, ??)
- complete real mode support
