Hi Javier,
I see. The biggest problem at our side is that we have spent time trying
to boot a new x86 OS on simics with no luck. Just want to ask: Did you
install a new Solaris OS on simics 3.0?
Thanks,
Binh

Hi Binh,
All our booted machines are Sparc. The OS we use is Solaris 10 u9. Therefore, I
cannot help you with the x86 Simics problem although there is an official
Windriver forum where you can ask for help. Regarding your installation
problems, I successfully installed llvm-2.9 in these environments:
2.6.35-28-generic (Ubuntu)
gcc 4.4.5
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.20.51-system.20100908
GNU assembler version 2.20.51 (x86_64-linux-gnu) using BFD version (GNU
Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.20.51-system.20100908
2.6.32-131.2.1.el6.x86_64 (Scientific Linux)
gcc 4.1.2& gcc 4.6.1
GNU ld version 2.20.51.0.2-5.11.el6 20091009
GNU assembler version 2.20.51.0.2 (x86_64-redhat-linux) using BFD version
version 2.20.51.0.2-5.11.el6 20091009
My advice is to install llvm on real hardware and then copy the files to a
Simics machine. Note that the booted and real machine should have the same OS
installed.
Regards,
Javier

Hi Javier,
I have been trying to follow your instructions, but I have encountered
some problems:
1. I remember I have tried to install a new OS on simics, but the
installation always crashed. This happened for ubuntu, fedora, and
gentoo on Simics 3.0. Are you using the same Simics version as mine?
Also, what OS are you using?
2. Because of 1, I decided to install gcc 4.6.1 on the old OS, and I got
the following error:
relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against 'simple_object_set_big_16' can not be
used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Did the gcc that you are using come with the OS you have on simics? Or
did you install it from source?
Thank you,
Binh

Dear Binh,
You need to use a new version of OS as well as install a new version of gcc (we
use 4.6.1).
In order to import a workload to Simics, you can follow this procedure:
a) On a real machine, install the OS of your interest
b) Install the workload on the same machine
c) Boot a Simics machine using the same OS that you used on the real machine
d) Copy all the workload files (e.g., libraries, workload binaries, etc) to the
Simics machine
e) Run and tune the workload inside the Simics machine
Regards,
Javier

Subject: Internal compiler errors: Segmentation fault
Hi everyone,
I am trying to set up Cloudsuite on a x86-64 simulated machine running
on Simics. The first benchmark I am working on is Software Testing.
While building the LLVM, I got a weird error saying that:
APInt.cpp: 1960: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
The compiler version is: gcc 4.1.0
Operating system version: Fedora Core 5, kernel 2.6.15, x86_64. (This is
very old, but this is inside the OS image provided by Simics).
Could anyone suggest me what I should do in this case?
Thank you very much,
Binh
