Olympia is a Performance Model written in C++ for the RISC-V community as an example of an Out-of-Order RISC-V CPU Performance Model based on the Sparta Modeling Framework.
Olympia's intent is to provide a basis for RISC-V CPU development enabling the community to build upon Olympia, extending its functionality in areas like branch prediction, prefetching/caching concepts, application profiling, middle-core design, etc.
Currently, Olympia is a trace-driven simulator running instructions streams provided in either JSON format or STF. However, extending Olympia with a functional back-end to run applications natively is under development.
- Download and build Sparta. Follow the directions on the Sparta README
- Make sure you have the required libraries for the STF toolsuite installed
- Clone olympia
git clone --recursive [email protected]:riscv-software-src/riscv-perf-model.git - Build Olympia
