RSDP PTR in x86 FS simulation : A valid RSDP was not found Hello,
I am very new to gem5. I am trying to run x86 FS simulation with a
linux kernel(v2.6.28.4)compiled with ACPI "enabled". I am seeing the
following error:
/"ACPI Error (tbxfroot-0219): A valid RSDP was not found [20080926]"/
The kernel is not able to locate the "RSD PTR " signature. I can see
some RSDP-related code in /src/arch/x86/bios directory in gem5, which
I am "guessing" takes care of setting up ACPI desriptor tables. Could
someone explain me some details here:
1. What does linux kernel expect from Gem5 related to ACPI set up and
init?
2. What kind of ACPI related set up (including taking care of RSDP
desriptor tables) is actually done by Gem5?
3. Most importantly, how to fix the above mentioned error?
I have attached log files for reference and the .config file I used
while compiling linux kernel. Pardon me if I have explained something
unclearly/incorrectly.
Thanks and Regards

Hey,
Could anyone help me out here?
My ultimate aim is to enable support for DVFS for linux kernel in x86
arch on gem5. And this is the first step. Kindly provide some insight.
