Hi,

I was just trying to understand how to pass a dtb file to the kernel via Gem5.

I would like some guidance if possible on how to run newer kernels on Gem5.

A few questions that I have not been able to find answers for

1) Most kernel trees seem to lack support for the Cortex-A15 tile
        - I say this because the ct-ca15x4.c file is missing in
arch/arm/mach-vexpress directory

2) I'm not sure whether the 'Extended Memory Map' is supported in
later kernels. If it is, is it auto-enabled? If not, how do I enable
this?

3) Kernel v3.9 has the following DTS file 'vexpress-v2p-ca15-tc1.dts'
with which I built a DTB.
        - Is this what I should be using?
        - If so, how do I feed this as a parameter from Gem5

My goal in running newer kernels is to try and get a fully functional
Android Jelly Bean image on Gem5..

Another minor issue that I was facing was that Gem5 complains about
missing __udelay..but I'm pretty sure I can resolve this myself.

Any help would be greatly appreciated


Regards
Guru
