Hi George,

I merely wanted to point out that booting Linux with the atomic CPU should 
definitely not take days (if even hours). Once that is done just take a 
checkpoint and run from there with the detailed CPU (Minor or O3).

Subject: [gem5-users] PARSEC in Syscall

Hi everyone!

   I've been trying to run as many PARSEC benchmarks as I can in sys call 
emulation mode with proper compilation and with m5threads and --static. There 
are some peculiarities in specific benchmarks that I was hoping some people in 
here have faced already :-) I couldn't really find any answers in mail archives.

I'm hoping to use sys call emulation mode because full system takes a few days 
to boot up the linux kernel... I am not sure if this is normal but this is what 
I am experiencing with gem5-dev right now.

Blacksholes, Fluidanimate, freqmine, steamcluster, x264 all run well. 
Bodytrack, Vips and ray trace have some static library dependency issues in my 
machines. However:



Canneal: Terminates with:
warn: mmap length argument 0x7ffff7000 is unreasonably large.
fatal: Out of memory, please increase size of physical memory.
(this is similar to swaptions. Does this refer to the host OS (i.e. gem5 needs 
more memory), or does it mean I need to make the simulated DRAM larger?

Facesim. Runs but terminates with:
warn: This sys_clone implementation assumes flags 
CLONE_VM|CLONE_FS|CLONE_FILES|CLONE_SIGHAND|CLONE_THREAD (0x10f00), and may not 
work correctly with given flags 0x100011
panic: Tried to write unmapped address 0x168.
The closest I could find is some old emails saying that it's because the host 
architecture is 64-bit but I can't really compile it as 32bit due to other 
library dependencies.

Ferret: Terminates with:
panic: Tried to read unmapped address 0x20.
 @ tick 2064240

Swaptions: fatal: Out of memory, please increase size of physical memory.
 @ tick 2090024
[allocPhysPages:build/X86_MESI_Two_Level/sim/system.cc, line 323]
Memory Usage: 2090024 KBytes


Thanks in advance!
