Hi Joao,

I believe you also need to instantiate a stage2 mmu. You can have a look at how 
we do it for the Arm cores in src/cpu/BaseCPU.py. There you will find the param
dstage2_mmu = Param.ArmStage2MMU(ArmStage2DMMU(), "Stage 2 trans").
You need something along the same line for your accelerator.

Subject: Re: [gem5-users] ArmTLB - Table walker must have a valid stage-2 MMU

Hello Nikos,

Many thanks for your reply.

After reading a bit, I also came to that conclusion, however I must confess 
that I am somehow clueless about how to do that with the configuration that I 
am using. The diagram of the system I am trying to mount is the following:

[cid:25b06f0a-9792-4314-b9b4-43ae80ce9f16@eurprd08.prod.outlook.com]

As I am accessing the main memory directly from the accelerator, I need to 
perform address translation. For that purpose, I am instantiating an ArmTLB and 
connecting it with the accelerator. When I try to run the system, I get the 
error:

fatal: fatal condition !stage2Mmu occurred: Table walker must have a valid 
stage-2 MMU

To make it easier, I attach the python wrapper of the accelerator 
(CacheComputeUnit.py) and configuration file (run-ccs.py) that I am using.

Again, many thanks for your help! 😊

Best,
João Vieira

Hi Joao,

I can't really tell where the problem is but when you configure your system you 
have to make sure that the cores have a stage 2 MMU for both the data 
(dstage2_mmu) and the instruction side (istage2_mmu).

   Hi guys,

   In SE mode, I have a memory mapped accelerator and I have to perform virtual 
to physical address translation to access the data in memory. I took as 
inspiration the work of powerjg, (thank you a lot for sharing your code, by the 
way). However I am using the ARM model, instead of the x86, which means that I 
should use the ArmTLB instead of the X86TLB. I instantiate it and pass it as 
parameter to my accelerator. When I use the X86 model (and consequently the 
X86TLB) everything goes fine, but when I try to instantiate the ArmTLB, I 
simply get: fatal: fatal condition !stage2Mmu occurred: Table walker must have 
a valid stage-2 MMU.

   Does someone came across with this problem and can give me a hint about how 
to solve it?

   Thank you very much in advance.

   Best,
   João Vieira
