Hi All, I am trying to simulate an ALPHA 8-core processor with 8GB DRAM memory in the FS mode. The program is aborted while booting up linux. It shows that the assertion in /build/ALPHA/dev/storage/ide_disk.cc failed, which is assert(cmdBytesLeft <= MAX_DMA_SIZE). I checked the value of cmdBytesLeft and it has two values before the failure: 8K and almost 4G. The 4G caused the assertion failure, since MAX_DMA_SIZE is 128K in default.
I wonder why this happens? It is fine when I reduce the memory size to 512MB. Thanks. Fisher _______________________________________________ gem5-users mailing list [email protected] http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gem5-users
