Hi all, After a few years away, I'm back to gem5. I have to say a lot of things have changed, for the better, thank you all!
I'm trying to assess what is the current state of gem5 regarding simulating configurations with multiples cores in a full system environment with the different cpu models. Especially with the Arm architecture and the classic memory model in a full system simulation using the O3CPU model. And what happens if you add SMT on top of that. I've looked at this page: https://www.gem5.org/documentation/benchmark_status/, but from what I can infer, those results are only valid for X86. I've tried for example to boot linux (using the kernel provided here: http://dist.gem5.org/dist/current/arm/aarch-system-201901106.tar.bz2 and the disk image here: http://dist.gem5.org/dist/current/arm/disks/aarch64-ubuntu-trusty-headless.img.bz2) but without success. But I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if I'm trying to do something that is unsupported for the moment. I'm using gem5 version v20.0.0.2 and here is my command line: $ build/ARM/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py --kernel=binaries/vmlinux.arm64 --machine-type=VExpress_GEM5_V2 --dtb-file=system/arm/dt/armv8_gem5_v2_4cpu.dtb --disk-image=aarch64-ubuntu-trusty-headless.img --cpu-type=O3_ARM_v7a_3 --caches --l2cache -n 4 I get the following error: Assertion `reqLookupResult.it->first == line_addr' failed. Global frequency set at 1000000000000 ticks per second warn: DRAM device capacity (8192 Mbytes) does not match the address range assigned (512 Mbytes) info: kernel located at: binaries/vmlinux.arm64 warn: Highest ARM exception-level set to AArch32 but the workload is for AArch64.

Program aborted at tick 12946004000 I get the same error using only one core (-n 1). I've also tried with the current state of the develop branch (commit v20.0.0.3-290-gcef72adab) and I get the same error. Thanks, Nathanael
