Add checkpoint parameters (together with corresponding serialization
and unserialization) for VMA list of class MemState into a separate
section named 'vmalist'.
Without these VMA list parameters, a page table fault will occur when
running with --restore-simpoint-checkpoint, because of an empty VMA
list. For example:
$ ./build/RISCV/gem5.debug --debug-flags=Exec configs/example/se.py \
-c tests/test-progs/hello/bin/riscv/linux/hello \
--cpu-type=NonCachingSimpleCPU --restore-simpoint-checkpoint \
--checkpoint-dir m5out/ -r 2
...
2404000: system.switch_cpus: T0 : @_int_malloc+3392 : sd a5, 8(a0) \
: MemWrite : D=0x000000000001ed21 A=0x862e8
panic: Page table fault when accessing virtual address 0x862e8
...
Example checkpoint output:
[system.cpu.workload.vmalist]
size=3
[system.cpu.workload.vmalist.Vma0]
name=stack
addrRangeStart=...
addrRangeEnd=...
[system.cpu.workload.vmalist.Vma1]
name=heap
addrRangeStart=...
addrRangeEnd=...
[system.cpu.workload.vmalist.Vma2]
...

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.
