Hello,
I am a researcher at the Technion working on Revizor (https://microsoft.github.io/sca-fuzzer).
For my research, I need a microarchitectural branch predictor simulator for AArch64.
Ideally, I am looking for an accurate microarchitectural simulation, but even a realistic approximation of a production-grade BPU would be extremely valuable.
I was wondering whether Fast Models can help me? And if so, how can I get a license for it.
Hi Gal Kaptsenel,Fast Models won't suite your use case because Fast Models are not designed to be cycle accurate e.g. RISC pipelining is not modelled. Please check the link below to know what FM can do and cannot do:https://developer.arm.com/documentation/100964/1130/About-the-models/Model-capabilities
Thanks,Toshi
