Does TENET support L1 and L2 cache size?
MAESTRO returns warning messages for invalid cache sizes. I set the cache sizes for TENET to different values, but the result is still the same even if I set it to -1.

To reproduce this problem, you could change L1/L2 cache size in ./dataflow_example/pe_array.p to -1, rerun the command, and compare the results with the original output.
Command from the tutorial:

bin/tenet --m ./dataflow_example/KC_systolic_dataflow.m --p ./dataflow_example/pe_array.p --s ./dataflow_example/conv.s --o test.csv --all

Could you provide a feature for detecting invalid cache sizes?

Hi, @semiwaker @wangyuyue

Ref.: TENET tutorial

Could you explain why you map the loop index to PE[k%8, c%8]?
It assumes you can do many MACs in a PE per cycle.
Did I miss something? Thank you!

The systolic access pattern requires the inner-most time-stamp to be:
{S{k,c,ox,oy,rx,ry} → T[k%8 + c%8 + ox]}
Map the outer loop index to the time stamp：
{S{k,c,ox,oy,rx,ry} → T[floor(k/8), floor(c/8), oy, k%8 + c%8 + ox]}

For T[0, 0, 0, 0], I get

Only PE[0, 0] is used.

For T[0, 0, 0, 1], I get

Only PE[0, 0] is used.

For T[0, 0, 0, 2], I get

Only PE[0, 0] is used.

Hi, @wangyuyue @semiwaker what is your g++ version for TENET?
Could you provide detailed information about the environment where you build TENET and run all experiments?
I update my g++ to g++-8 to fix filesystem: No such file or directory but still get terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' after running bin/alexnet.

I cloned and built the project according to the tutorial, but this construction failed at this

./configure --prefix=$EXTERNAL_LIB --with-ntl-prefix=$EXTERNAL_LIB --enable-shared-barvinok > /dev/null

the error shows "./configure:no such file or directory"
Is there anything in the project that I need to modify for building this project?

I think I have found what's wrong with the process.We should use apt to install some dependent library required first before compiling barvinok.

sudo apt install autoconf automake libtool
