    More complex settings involving new classes however require patching the config files, although it is easy to hack this up. See for example: patches/manual/gem5-semihost.patch.

    The m5out/config.dot file contains a graphviz .dot file that provides a simplified graphical view of a subset of the gem5 config.ini.

    This file gets automatically converted to .svg and .pdf, which you can view after running gem5 with:

    27.6. Baremetal C++

    TODO not working as of 8825222579767f2ee7e46ffd8204b9e509440759 + 1. Not yet properly researched / reported upstream yet.

    Should not be hard in theory since libstdc++ is just part of GCC, as shown at: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21872229/how-to-edit-and-re-build-the-gcc-libstdc-c-standard-library-source/51946224#51946224

    To test it out, I first hack common.py to enable C++:

    -
    -
    -
    -
    consts['baremetal_build_in_exts'] = consts['build_in_exts']
    -
    -
    -
    -

    and then I hack userland/arch/aarch64/inline_asm/multiline.cpp to consist only of an empty main:

    -
    -
    -
    -
    int main() {}
    -
    -
    -
    -

    then for example:

    -
    -
    -
    -
    ./build-baremetal --arch aarch64
-./run --arch aarch64 --baremetal userland/arch/aarch64/inline_asm/multiline.cpp
    -
    -
    -

    fails with:

    and the gem5 build fails completely:

    ./build-baremetal --arch aarch64 --emulator gem5 userland/arch/aarch64/inline_asm/multiline.cpp
