Re: [Gems-users] Ruby module loading failed

[Dan Gibson <degibson@xxxxxxxx>]

Yuho,

The error message you are seeing originates from 
$GEMS/ruby/module/ruby.c -- when Ruby is loaded, it attempts to install 
itself as the timing model for the "phys_mem0" object. When "phys_mem0" 
does not exist, indicated by a NULL return from SIM_get_object(), Ruby 
presents the error message.
Try the following:
simics> read-configuration <valid_configuration>
simics> phys_mem0.[tab]

That is, type "phys_mem0." and hit [tab] to expand the options. If 
simics doesn't expand the "phys_mem0." input, then phys_mem0 doesn't 
(yet) exist.
Check your configuration file to see if it contains an object called 
"phys_mem0". It may be named something else on abisko... it usually is 
something similar to phys_mem. Our local Simics 3.X checkpoints use the 
"sarek" configuration rather than "abisko" -- we suggest "sarek" be used 
in all cases.
Regards,
Dan
