I want to ask if there such kinds of traces and scripts

[Gary Lee]

I want to do some research about caching with low locality(means large reuse distance), but I didn't find such nice traces.

So I want to ask if there such kinds of traces in this project? Or any scripts to get L2 traces by doing L1 filtering?

Thank you for your time.

Hi Gary,

     The following clusters have large inter-arrival gap, cluster4, cluster11, cluster19, cluster34, cluster48, cluster50, cluster54. I have attached the inter-arrival gap distribution.

In terms of scripts to generate a L2 trace, sorry, I just realize that my scripts are for a different format and have some dependencies. But I have attached a code snippet of L1 (FIFO) for you to get start. You can develop a more complete solution using PyMimircache or libCacheSim.

fifo_list = deque()

fifo_set = set()

for req in trace:

    if req in fifo_dict:

        continue 

    fifo_set.add(req)

    fifo_list.append(req)

    if len(fifo_list) > L1_size:

        evict = fifo_list.popleft()

        fifo_set.remove(evict)
