Hi Muzamil,

A memory size of 8GB seems very large to me. The test parameter set should run with max 2 GB and the larger parameter sets are not really feasible if you want bearable runtimes.

Issue (i) seems to be the same problem I had with gromacs. Most architectures use downward growing mmap regions, but the mremap function, which is called by gromacs, does not respect this. I have submitted my fix at https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/#/c/public/gem5/+/4700/ .

Hi All,

I have a question regarding relationship (if any) that exists between host
memory size and memory range assigned using option --mem-size=MEM_SIZE. If
memory size of my host machine is 4GB(RAM), can I assign --mem-size=8GB in
gem5 simulator se mode? If yes, what is the origin of these type of errors
that encountered when assigning different SPEC2006 benchmarks as workloads.

(i)
warn: mremapping to new vaddr 0x7ffff79c8000-0x7ffff7a09000, adding 65536
warn: returning 0x7ffff79c8000 as start
fatal: FuncPageTable::allocate: addr 0x7ffff79e8000 already mapped
Memory Usage: 8869576 KBytes

(ii)
panic: Tried to write unmapped address 0x7ffffa9ed740.
Memory Usage: 8714168 KBytes
Program aborted at tick 3243857330565

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks
Muzamil
