x86 linux boot is a component of the '--length long' regression.
You need the kernel and disk image that are installed when the regression
is run.
command line:
./build/X86/gem5.opt ./tests/gem5/x86-boot-tests/run_exit.py --kernel
boot-test/vmlinux-4.19.83 --disk boot-test/base.img --cpu-type
I'm planning to give this a shot, but is there a simple command line for
this? It would take a lot of time to set up a system and all that, and it
would be much nicer to just fire off, for instance, a linux boot test if we
already have something lying around.

I think Linux boot is pretty reasonable. Or, Linux boot + some
multithreaded tests (parsec is available for x86 in gem5-resources). If
there isn't much performance impact there, I think that would be strong
evidence for little performance impact, generally.
Cheers,
