Dear Hossein,

The error that you are seeing appears to be caused by the kernel trying to 
access devices which are not at the expected location in the memory map. If a 
device cannot be found, gem5 with throw the error you have below. Therefore, 
you should see this error by running the command without WA. For example, try 
running the following:


./build/ARM/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py 
--kernel=/home/hossein/gem5_images/binaries/vmlinux-android 
--disk-image=/home/hossein/gem5_images/disks/android_image.img 
--cpu-type=AtomicSimpleCPU --frame-capture -n 1 --caches --l2cache 
--l1d_size=16kB --l1i_size=16kB --l2_assoc=16 --l2_size=2MB --mem-size=256MB 
--mem-type=LPDDR3_1600_x32 --os-type=android-kitkat

I would expect you to see the same error message as when you are running with 
WA.

I notice that you are not specifying a DTB when running the simulation. The DTB 
informs the kernel about the devices present, and their locations in the memory 
map. You should be able to specify a "--dtb-filename=<path/to/dtb>" argument. 
Please try this outside of WA first to see if you can get it to work there. You 
should be able to generate a DTB from the kernel sources. Please see 
http://gem5.org/ARM_Linux_Kernel#32_bit_kernel_.28AArch32.29 for more 
information.

Please let me know if you get this working, or if you have further issues.

Regards,
Sascha

Subject: [gem5-users] Android boot problem with workload automation

Dear gem5 maintainers,

I'm having difficulty booting Android Kitkat on gem5 and using ARM workload 
automation tool.

I'm going to completely explain my problem here, so excuse me for this long 
message.

I have prepared the Android file system and compiled the kernel according to 
the instructions on this page:
http://www.gem5.org/Android_KitKat
(I've done all the things up to the 'Android Runtime Configuration' section 
completely, but since the instructions in the mentioned section is somewhat 
vague, I didn't have an idea how to follow them).

According to these pages:
http://www.gem5.org/WA-gem5
http://www.mail-archive.com/gem5-users@gem5.org/msg13218.html
I prepared the gem5 stuff for integration with ARM workload automation and 
prepared the following agenda file (my_agenda.yaml):

config:
    device: gem5_android
    device_config:
        gem5_binary: "./build/ARM/gem5.opt"
        gem5_args: "configs/example/fs.py
            --kernel=/home/hossein/gem5_images/binaries/vmlinux-android
            --disk-image=/home/hossein/gem5_images/disks/android_image.img
            --cpu-type=AtomicSimpleCPU --frame-capture -n 1
            --caches --l2cache --l1d_size=16kB --l1i_size=16kB --l2_assoc=16 
--l2_size=2MB
            --mem-size=256MB --mem-type=LPDDR3_1600_x32
            --os-type=android-kitkat"
        gem5_vio_args: "--workload-automation-vio={}"
        temp_dir: "/tmp"
        checkpoint: True
        run_delay: 10
        core_names: ['a15']
    reboot_policy: never
    result_processors: [~sqlite]
    instrumentation: [~cpufreq]

workloads:
  - id: dhrystone
    workload_name: dhrystone
    iterations: 1

Note that 'vmlinux-android' and 'android_image.img' are the files that I 
generated according to the instructions.

Then, in the gem5 installation root directory, I executed the workload. Here's 
what happened in the command line:

It seems that the source of my problem can be understood from this error 
message:
fatal: Unable to find destination for addr 0x1c030000 on system.iobus
 @ tick 101175788500
[findPort:build/ARM/mem/xbar.cc, line 358]

I've spent so much time to reach this point because the gem5 documentation for 
Android and ARM WA is not clear enough. I'd appreciate it if you help me on 
this issue.
