Hello, I first started using the Ruby Model in M5 about a week or so ago, and was able to boot in FS mode (up to 64 cores once applying the BigTsunami patches).
In order to keep up with the changes in the Ruby code, I have started fetching recent updates from the devrepo. However, in fetching the updates to the recent changesets (from the last 2 days) Ruby FS does not boot. I tried both MESI_CMP_directory and MOESI_CMP_directory. If running 2 cores or less I get this at the terminal screen after letting it run for some time: hda: M5 IDE Disk, ATA DISK drive hdb: M5 IDE Disk, ATA DISK drive hda: UDMA/33 mode selected hdb: UDMA/33 mode selected ide0 at 0x8410-0x8417,0x8422 on irq 31 ide1 at 0x8418-0x841f,0x8426 on irq 31 ide_generic: please use "probe_mask=0x3f" module parameter for probing all legacy ISA IDE ports ide2 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14 ide3 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 hda: max request size: 128KiB hda: 101808 sectors (52 MB), CHS=101/16/63 hda:<4>hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x65 <------------------------------------------------------- problem When running 3 or more cores, I get the following assertion failure: info: kernel located at: /home/musleh/M5/m5_system_2.0b3/binaries/vmlinux Listening for system connection on port 3456 0: system.tsunami.io.rtc: Real-time clock set to Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 2009 0: system.remote_gdb.listener: listening for remote gdb #0 on port 7000 0: system.remote_gdb.listener: listening for remote gdb #1 on port 7001 0: system.remote_gdb.listener: listening for remote gdb #2 on port 7002 0: system.remote_gdb.listener: listening for remote gdb #3 on port 7003 **** REAL SIMULATION **** info: Entering event queue @ 0.
