Shan,
Are you thinking of _running_ Simics+Gems on a sparc machine with Linux
as the OS, or are you thinking of _simulating_ a sparc/linux machine
with Simics+Gems running on some other host machine?
As far as _running_ Simics+Gems on sparc/linux, Gems's functionality
will be determined by the host's ability to compile ANSI C++. So, if you
have a recent version of g++ available on your sparc/linux host, Gems
should work without any problems. However, you may want to check that
Simics itself supports running on a sparc/linux platform, if you haven't
already.
With regards to _simulating_ a sparc/linux with Simics+Gems, we have
only had significant experience with sparc targets running Solaris,
though, in theory, running simulated Linux (on sparc) should not change
the functionality of Gems.
Regards,
Dan
