MIDAS documentation/creating diagnostics

I'd like to be able to write my own multithreaded diagnostics using the T1 verification suite, but am having trouble figuring out what all of the midas args are and what exactly their purpose is. For example, looking at cmp8_basic.diaglist, the entry for dram_mt_32th_loads uses -midas_args for DTHREAD_COUNT, DCREGS_L2_CTL_REG_ASSOCDIS, and DSYNC_THREADS. While the meaning of DTHREAD_COUNT is pretty straight forward to guess the meaning of, I haven't been able to derive the meaning of these variables while grepping around in the tools and verif directories, nor have I been able to find any documentation. Any ideas on where to look for more information would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Jason

After a bit more digging and looking at the sims.log file, I realized that the -DTHREAD_COUNT and the other flags being passed to midas are actually just defines being passed to cpp. I should have picked up on this sooner before posting...
