This reverts commit a3f85217ab,
https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/48384
The reason for reverting this commit is it causes the Nightly build to
timeout: https://www.mail-archive.com/gem5-dev@gem5.org/msg40344.html
The exact cause of this failure was a stalling with the O3 processor on
ARM. The simulation reaches the following error and repeats until
timeout:
```
build/ARM/arch/arm/isa.cc:2634: warn: context 0: 2136500000 consecutive store conditional failures
```
The "realview-o3-ARM-x86_64-opt" test can replicate this:
```
./main.py run -j8 --uid
SuiteUID:tests/gem5/fs/linux/arm/test.py:realview-o3-ARM-x86_64-opt
```

This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/about, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and options. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
