[Gems-users] Problem building GEMS 1.4 w/Simics 3.0.17 on amd64

[Marius Grannæs <grannas@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am trying to build Gems 1.4 w/ Simics 3.0.17 on an amd64 machine 
running Ubuntu Edgy.

I have followed the instructions on:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/gems/doc/wiki/moin.cgi/Setup_for_Simics_3.0.X
and 
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/gems/doc/wiki/moin.cgi/QuickStart

to get Ruby to compile. 
Most of the problems where related to SIMICS_VERSION not being defined
in some Makefiles (even though I have defined it in 
common/Makefile.simics_version), also the host seems to not be detected
properly in some makefiles. 

However, I've gotten as far as this:

cd /home/grannas/src/gems/simics; make ruby
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace'
=== Building module "ruby" ===
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/amd64-linux/obj/modules/ruby'
Using the Simics 3.0 API for ruby module
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/amd64-linux/obj/modules/ruby'
make[1]: *** [ruby] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace'
make: *** [all] Error 2

This doesn't say much, so I did a --dry-run. It seems to fail on this:

make -C "/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/amd64-linux/obj/modules/ruby" \
 -f "/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/modules/ruby/Makefile" \
 MOD_MAKEFILE="/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/modules/ruby/Makefile" \
 HOST_TYPE=amd64-linux \
 SRC_BASE="/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/modules" \
 MODULE_MAKEFILE="/home/grannas/bilbo/.version/simics-3.0.17/config/module.mk" \
 TARGET=ruby

So I issued it manually, and added PROTOCOL=MOESI_CMP_directory to the commandline. The output then becomes:

make: Entering directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/amd64-linux/obj/modules/ruby'
/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/modules/../../ruby/amd64-linux/generated/MOESI_CMP_directory/obj/AbstractCacheEntry.o:1: warning: NUL character seen; rest of line ignored
/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/modules/../../ruby/amd64-linux/generated/MOESI_CMP_directory/obj/AbstractCacheEntry.o:1: *** missing separator.  Stop.
make: Leaving directory `/home/grannas/src/gems/simics_3_workspace/amd64-linux/obj/modules/ruby'

Any ideas about what's wrong?
