How to enable ARM semihosting in gem5?

问题

I tried to run a semihosting exit instruction that worked on QEMU:

mov r0, #0x18
ldr r1, =#0x20026
svc 0x00123456

but gem5 seemed to not process it properly and crashed.

As of 7bfb7f3a43f382eb49853f47b140bfd6caad0fb8 (Sep 2018) for fs.py apply the patch:

diff --git a/configs/example/fs.py b/configs/example/fs.py

+from m5.objects import ArmSemihosting

Should be analogous for any other script, you just have to connect this new SimObject.
