Hi Jason,

Last email was incomplete sorry for that.

I am running following system,

./build/ARM/gem5.debug --debug-flags ProtocolTrace   configs/example/fs.py
--l1d_size=32kB --l1i_size=32kB --num-l2caches 4  --l2_size=1MB
--cacheline_size=64 --machine-type=VExpress_GEM5_V1  --kernel

--dtb-filename /home/khilji/gem5/m5/system/dtb/armv7_gem5_v1_4cpu.dtb
--num-cpus 4  --cpu-type ex5_big  --ruby --num-dirs=4 --network=garnet2.0
--topology Mesh_XY --mesh-rows 2 --mem-size 1G

I am facing following problem,

panic: Possible Deadlock detected. Aborting! version: 3 request.paddr:
0x801578d8 m_readRequestTable: 1 current time: 3244524422000 issue_time:
3244269289000 difference: 255133000

Memory Usage: 1581920 Kbytes

This was in the gem5.fast simulation and when I repeated it in the debug
with ProtocolTrace on I got following results

gem5.debug: build/ARM/mem/ruby/network/MessageBuffer.cc:220: Tick
MessageBuffer::dequeue(Tick, bool): Assertion `isReady(current_time)'
failed.

Program aborted at tick 547724021000

The directory controller does many DMA reads but after the read at tick
547724018500 the assertion in message buffer of network fails.

I am using MESI_Two_Level protocol and this protocol did not support
multiple DMA controllers. I have added the support for the multiple DMA
controllers in this protocol. If that is the issue. I am facing this issue
with ex5_big and DerivO3CPU. Simulation with TimingSimpleCPU is fine.
Kindly, if you can suggest any thing in this issue. Thanks!

best regards,

Muhammad
