LongModeAddressSize was used by kernel 2.6.28.4 for physical address
validation, if not properly implemented, PCI resource allocation may
failed because of ioremap failed:
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:27-30
27 static inline int phys_addr_valid(unsigned long addr)
28 {
29 return addr < (1UL << boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits);
30 }
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:475-482
475 #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
476 if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x80000008) {
477 u32 eax = cpuid_eax(0x80000008);
478
479 c->x86_virt_bits = (eax >> 8) & 0xff;
480 c->x86_phys_bits = eax & 0xff;
481 }
482 #endif
- linux-2.6.28.4/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:209-214
209 if (!phys_addr_valid(phys_addr)) {
210 printk(KERN_WARNING "ioremap: invalid physical address %llx\n",
211 (unsigned long long)phys_addr);
212 WARN_ON_ONCE(1);
213 return NULL;
214 }
This patch return 0x0000ffff for LongModeAddressSize, which guarantee phys_addr_valid never failed.

This is the gem5 simulator. The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/Introduction, and for more information about building the simulator and getting started please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials. To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang, Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4, and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools. Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options. With the simulator built, have a look at http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use gem5. The basic source release includes these subdirectories: - configs: example simulation configuration scripts - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5 - src: source code of the gem5 simulator - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems - tests: regression tests - util: useful utility programs and files To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware (console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at http://www.gem5.org/Download If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
