Hi,
I've just started to use M5, and am trying to get the sparc simulation
tools to work. I have successfully built the SPARC_SE and SPARC_FS m5
binaries. I ran the SPARC_SE hello world example. Now I am trying to
get SPARC_FS to work and am running into some issues. I followed a
previous mailing list thread (
http://m5sim.org/cgi-bin/mailman/private/m5-users/2010-February/005466.html
) which got me far, but not far enough.
I am running on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala: Linux version 2.6.31-21-generic
gcc version 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu9)
Python 2.6.4
SCons v1.2.0.r3842
SWIG Version 1.3.36
and have zlib and m4 installed.
I have copied the OpenSparc binaries to /dist/m5/system/binaries/ and
renamed reset.bin, q.bin, and openboot.bin to the _new binaries
expected by the m5 sparc FS scripts. I also copied nvram1 to the
binaries directory, but did not change it at all. I have copied the
disk.s10hw2 to /dist/m5/system/disks/ as well.
I run the following ($ indicates command line prompt):
---------
$ build/SPARC_FS/m5.debug -d /tmp/output configs/example/fs.py

I'm not sure what the info and warn messages indicate.
However, there is output:
---------
$ cat /tmp/output/system.t1000.pterm

ok
---------
It appears that it is waiting for a boot command. So I try to connect
to give interactive commands,
---------
$ telnet localhost 3456
Trying ::1...
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
==== m5 slave terminal: Terminal 0 ====
---------
The telnet client just sits. In the m5 console I see this:
---------
53772125000: system.t1000.hterm: attach terminal 0
---------
However, there is no change to system.t1000.pterm. Also
system.t1000.hterm remains an empty file.
If anyone has any pointers for how I can proceed with getting the base
solaris image to boot, I would be very grateful. I prefer automatic
rather than interactive, but anything that works is a good start for
me.
Sincerely,
Gedare
