Specious2000 - A SPEC CPU2000 Benchmark Suite CMake Harness

Introduction

This is a CMake build harness for the SPEC CPU200 benchmarks.

The actual source files for each benchmark are not included, but use [this][2] instead.

Building of all C and C++ programs of the suite
Out-of-source builds thanks to cmake
Capability to create LLVM bitcode files thanks to llvm-ir-cmake-utils and LLVM opt pass pipelines (see the config/pipelines subdirectory).
Capability to configure and build any desired subset of the programs by using the corresponding configuration (see the suite_* files in the config subdirectory).

git clone --recursive this repo and git clone the benchmark source [repo][2].
Create symlinks to the src subdirectory of each benchmark program. This can be automated with the relevant script found in the utils/scripts/source_tree subdirectory of this repo, for example:

create-symlink-bmk-subdir.sh -c suite_all.txt -s [path-to]/CPU2000/ -t [path-to]/CPU2000/ -l src
Create a directory for an out-of-source build and cd into it.
Run cmake and cmake --build . with that appropriate options. For examples on the various options have a look at the build scripts (provided for convenience) located in the utils/scripts/source_tree subdirectory.
Optionally, you can install the benchmarks by

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=[path-to-install] -P cmake_install.cmake

Omitting CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX will use the ../install/ directory relative to the build directory.
