Detailed Description

Specialization for accessing a copy-on-write disk image layer.

A copy-on-write(COW) layer must be stacked on top of another disk image layer this layer can be another CowDiskImage, or a RawDiskImage.

This object is designed to provide a mechanism for persistant changes to a main disk image, or to provide a place for temporary changes to the image to take place that later may be thrown away.

◆ notifyFork()

void gem5::CowDiskImage::notifyFork ( )

overridevirtual

Notify a child process of a fork.

SimObjects are told that the process is going to be forked.

Forking is a process of splitting a process in to two processes, which is then used for multiprocessing.

When calling fork in gem5, we need to ensure that resources shared between the parent and the child are consistent. This method is intended to be overloaded to handle that. For example, an object could use this method to re-open input files to get a separate file description with a private file offset.

This method is only called in the child of the fork. The call takes place in a drained system.

Reimplemented from gem5::Drainable.
