Hi Tyler,

Yes, everything is stock. The error has a little bit different behaviour
after I switched back to the master branch. Please see below.

$ scons c=1 debug=2
$ ./qemu/qemu-system-x86_64 -version
QEMU emulator version 0.14.1, Copyright (c) 2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard

And the way to reproduce the issue is as follows

(1) $ ./qemu/qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4096 -hda ../qemu-disks/android-64.img
-usbdevice mouse -usbdevice keyboard

I am using a customized Android-x86 image (I am willing to provide the
image file if necessary). After entering the debug mode (without graphics),
here is the kernel info of this image:

# uname -a
Linux (none) 3.0.36-android-x86-eeepc+ #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 27 21:27:01
EDT 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

(2) I want to simulate this command:

# am start -a android.intent.action.Main -n
com.android.calculator2/.Calculator

If there is GUI, then after this command, the Calculator app would be
launched. Without graphics, nothing will happen. So now we add start_sim
before this command and try to simulate it.

Switch to the qemu terminal (Ctrl+Alt+2), and type
(qemu) simconfig -machine single_core

Then switch back to the Android terminal  (Ctrl+Alt+1), type
# ./start_sim ;  am start -a android.intent.action.Main
-com.android.calculator2/.Calculator ; ./kill_sim

(I compiled start_sim/kill_sim statically from the source code provided on
Marss website. )

(3) The simulation starts:
Switching to simulation

And in my original terminal I can see the Completed Cycles scrolling down...

After a while, the simulation gets stuck and my original terminal's output
stops on this line:
...
Completed      24021000 cycles,       1774788 commits:     54459 Hz,
51483
Completed      24034000 cycles,       1786064 commits:     59305 Hz,
51441
Completed      24045000 cycles,       1797644 commits:     51526 Hz,
54243insns/sec: rip ffffffff81026c57

And then after a while qemu exits:
...
Completed      24021000 cycles,       1774788 commits:     54459 Hz,
51483
Completed      24034000 cycles,       1786064 commits:     59305 Hz,
51441
Completed      24045000 cycles,       1797644 commits:     51526 Hz,
54243
qemu-system-x86_64: ptlsim/build/core/ooo-core/ooo.cpp:929: bool
ooo::OooCore::runcycle(void*): Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted

If we look at the code ooo.cpp:929, we can see that the issue is still
caused by "the pipeline could be deadlocked" but this information was not
printed out to the terminal.

Should I just go ahead and post the above text on to github issues (
https://github.com/avadhpatel/marss/issues?page=1&state=open) ?

Thanks again for your help!!
