Troubleshooting
#1

Hi everyone, I’m working with tvm-v0.10.0/apps/microtvm/cmsisnn:

When I ran run_demo.sh, I got an Error:
“stack setup failed: failed to allocate stack memory”

I guess there are something wrong with arm FVP simulation environment, because I am sure that the arm executable file “demo” is generated successfully.

My tvm version is 0.10.0, Ubuntu version is 18.04 (WSL).
I’ve installed all the dependency that is mentioned in cmsisnn/README.md, including:

Prerequisites
-------------
If the demo is not run in the ci_cpu Docker container, then you will need the following:
- Software required to build and run the demo (These can all be installed by running
  tvm/docker/install/ubuntu_install_ethosu_driver_stack.sh.)
  - [Fixed Virtual Platform (FVP) based on Arm(R) Corstone(TM)-300 software](https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/arm-platforms-software/arm-ecosystem-fvps)
  - [cmake 3.19.5](https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/)
  - [GCC toolchain from Arm(R)](https://developer.arm.com/-/media/Files/downloads/gnu-rm/10-2020q4/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10-2020-q4-major-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2)
  - [Arm(R) Ethos(TM)-U NPU driver stack](https://review.mlplatform.org)
  - [CMSIS](https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5)

I try to remove the FVP and install it again, still got the Error.
Any advice will be helpful.

Hello @denis ,

Did you find any solution to this? I am facing the same issue.

@swaraj Sorry, I have no idea yet. Please tell me if you know.

#4

@swaraj By the way, what’s your Linux and tvm version?

#5

Since the demo is part of CI where it works, it looks like some problem of memory running out for some reason on local system. Don’t have much input here, but see if this discussion helps in anyway: c++ - Accellera SystemC error with a large number of SC_THREAD - Stack Overflow

@ashutosh-arm The problem is not solved :face_with_thermometer:, thanks for you reply anyway.

Hi @denis, it seems to be a problem with the FVP on WSL1.

Please, can you raise the issue with Arm by sending an email to support@arm.com?

Meanwhile, try running the simulation using WSL2, it should work.
