Changeset 8974:bc9705db542b --------------------------- Syscalls: panic when the length argument to mmap is excessive. If the length argument to mmap is larger than the arbitrary but reasonable limit of 4GB, there's a good chance that the value is nonsense and not intentional. Rather than attempting to satisfy the mmap anyway, this change makes gem5 panic to make it more apparent what's going wrong.
