[PTLsim-devel] self-modifying code

Mon Jun 25 09:51:42 EDT 2007

Hello Matt,

I'm still looking for a solution. In the meantime, I'll post the  
output of the logfile:

?Self-modifying code at rip 0x80578a1 detected: mfn was dirty  
(invalidate and retry)

...

As you can see, the simulator keeps retrying for some reason. I have  
to dig in the code a little bit further it seems...

Kind regards,
Luk.
