Hi Luming, When you compile PARSEC statically, you still run the workloads in FS mode inside the kernel rather than in SE, suppose FS in your case from what you described? and I'm not quite sure why you were referring to src/arch/x86/linux/syscalls.cc, is this just for SE?
You can enable debug flags in gem5, and also insert printfs in your kernel code, to help with your kernel boot debug.
