Jason,
Thanks for the explanation and the super-fast fix below – definitely a more insightful message I was tracking the hierarchy diagrams and missed the abstract qualification – but I see it now & I’ll be more aware going forward. Thanks for your leadership in this space Raghu From: Jason Lowe-Power via gem5-users <gem5-users@gem5.org> Sent: Friday, April 22, 2022 11:16 AM To: gem5 users mailing list <gem5-users@gem5.org> Cc: rshank...@austin.rr.com; Jason Lowe-Power <ja...@lowepower.com> Subject: [gem5-users] Re: Adding PioDevice leads to TypeError: No constructor defined I just pushed a change that will make this error message better. "fatal: Cannot instantiate an abstract SimObject (system.dev <http://system.dev> )" is what the error now says :). See https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/59049 Cheers, Jason On Fri, Apr 22, 2022 at 8:57 AM Jason Lowe-Power <ja...@lowepower.com <mailto:ja...@lowepower.com> > wrote: Hello, I believe the problem is that gem5 tries to do too much automatically for you! gem5 automatically creates a lot of the constructor/destructor codes. Given all of this hidden/automatic code generation, it's difficult to know exactly what's going wrong (for both you and for us). That said, I think the problem is that `PioDevice` is an abstract SimObject, not a concrete SimObject. This may work if you instead use the `DmaDevice`.
