Hi Everyone, I've just posted a set of patches that allow ARM Realview systems to boot Linux with Ruby.
The major change in these patches is the added support for address ranges in the Directory. Systems like ARM that don't assume a continuous memory range starting from 0 used to be a problem for the Ruby Directory. This change addresses this issue and adds more flexibility in the address range of a Directory. We still support interleaving and now we can specify hashing too. There is also a small patch that fixes an issue with the LL/SC memory requests and finally changes that add regressions for arm-ruby systems. This set of changes allows a basic ARM system to boot Linux with Ruby but your mileage may vary. I am looking forward to your reviews and thoughts. For anyone interested you the changes are here: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%2522arm-ruby%2522+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged) Thanks, Nikos IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
