Hi Pierre and Sharjeel, I think there might still be some functionality in Anastasia’s GIT repo that hasn’t been merged. The patches I posted a few months ago were mainly addressing the configuration problem.
At the moment, I don’t think Ruby will work at all if you try to use it with ARM. The reason is that the directory controllers in in Ruby assume a flat DRAM address space starting at address zero. This is a bit problematic for the ARM-based platforms gem5 simulate since DRAM typically starts at a the 2 GiB boundary. You could try to apply [1] to the latest version of gem5 to get to a state that is similar to that of Anastasia’s repo. As far as I know, there are still quite few outstanding issues that prevents Ruby from properly simulating an ARM guest. Some of these are outlined in my original email.

See this email [1] from Andreas Sandberg sent on 22th July, one month after the final update on the git repository. Then, I think you should use the latest version available at https://github.com/gem5/gem5 . Andreas, could you confirm that ? Best.
