Re: [gem5-dev] Bug: Bug reporting site is not working

I'd also like to express my support for moving to GitHub. Our team is already using the gem5 GitHub mirror as the upstream for our internal development. Officially moving to GitHub would simplify all aspects of the development process as it relates to everything other than simply keeping in sync

vim will show a highlight for the first ~50 characters (I'm not sure why 50) and line break automatically around 70 characters on the first line of git commit messages. This can be adjusted easily with a line in vimrc: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11023194/git-vim-automatically-wrap-long-c

[gem5-dev] Merging the TLM/SystemC examples?

2017-07-06 Thread Paul Rosenfeld (prosenfeld)
Hello all, I've been looking at the SystemC example (util/systemc) and the TLM examples (util/tlm) and trying to figure out if both examples are actually needed. As far as I can tell, the TLM example is basically a more well-structured and recently updated clone of the SystemC example. However,

Hello all, I have recently been running a workload in full system mode that attempts to figure out some information about the system by accessing various nodes in /sys. The issue occurs when the library tries to access the PCI device config of the IDE controller through sysfs. The kernel attemp

Even without the complexities of setting up SystemC+gem5 it's pretty painful to "unit" test SystemC because the SystemC runtime has a lot of global state that comes along with it (for example: you can't "uncall" sc_start() to go back and re-do elaboration with different modules). The only (not v

Hello all, I recently tried to build gem5 on RHEL5 (I know, I know) and it complained about missing the fallocate() system call added in https://gem5.googlesource.com/public/gem5/+/cc84eb81 The current hardcoded assumption is that Linux will have access to this system call ( https://gem5.goog
