If you find that +your program won't run at all, make certain that GDB and your +program's endianness match. + + +The most important thing is that before you can run the simulator you +must enable it. For the simulator, gdb is started like any program: + + $ powerpc-unknown-eabi-gdb psim-test/uea/envp.be + +Next the simulator is enabled. The command `target sim' accepts the +same options as can be specified on the PSIM command line. + + (gdb) target sim + +To trace the communication between psim and gdb specify `target sim -t +gdb'. Once enabled, the binary needs to be loaded, any breakpoints of +interest set, and the program run: + + (gdb) load + (gdb) break main + (gdb) run + . + . + . + +In addition, if you are wanting to run a program described by a device +tree you can `attach' to the simulation using (I assume that you have +applied the attach patch): + + $ cd psim-test/tree + $ powerpc-unknown-eabi-gdb + (gdb) target sim + (gdb) attach device-tree + (gdb) run + +Here GDB takes the programs initial state from the attached +device-tree instead of forcing initialisation. + + + ---------------------------------------------------------------------- + + +PROFILING: + + +PSIM includes a number of performance monitoring (profiling) +facilities: + + o instruction frequency counting + + o execution unit modeling (records + effective usage of units). + + o instruction cache performance + +As discussed in the file INSTALL, each can be configured to individual +requirements. + + + -i Enable instruction counting. + + The frequency of all instructions is tabulated.

This structure, created at run-time, intentionally +resembles the device tree used by OpenBoot firmware to describe a +machines hardware configuration. + +PSIM can either create its device tree using a builtin emulation or +from one read in from a file. + +During startup, the device tree is created using the following steps: + + o Initial empty tree is created + + o Any tree entry options specified on the + command line are merged in (the -o <entry> + option is used). + + It should be pointed out that most of the + command line options (eg -r, -e, -m, -t + are all just short hand for corresponding + -o options). + + o If the specified program is a device tree spec, that + is loaded. + + If the specified program is a text file it is assumed + that that file contains a further specification of the + simulators device tree. That tree is loaded and + merged with the current tree options. + + o The selected emulation fills out any remaining details. + + By this stage the emulation environment that the program + needs will either be specified in the device tree + (through the -e option) or determined from the + characteristics of the binary. + + The selected emulation will then fill out any missing + nodes in the device tree. + +Most importantly earlier additions to the tree are not overridden by +later additions. Thus, command line options override information +found in the program file and both override any builtin emulation +entries. + +The following is a summary of the most useful runtime configuration +options: + + -e <os-emul> + -o '/openprom/options/os-emul <os-emul>' + + Run program using the <emulation> run-time + environment. + + -r <ram-size> + -o '/openprom/options/oea-memory-size <ram-size>' + + Set the size of the first bank of memory + (RAM from address 0 up). + + -t print-device-tree + -o '/openprom/trace/print-device-tree 1' + + -t dump-device-tree + -o '/openprom/trace/dump-device-tree 1' + + Print out the device tree once it has been fully + populated. For dump-device-tree, exit simulator after + dumping the tree. + + PSIM is able to reload the dumped device tree. + + The format of the dumped tree is under development. + + -o '/openprom/options/smp <N>' + + Enable <N> processors for the simulation run. + See the directory psim-test/oea for an example. + + -o '/openprom/options/alignment <N>' + + Where <N> is 1 - nonstrict or 2 - strict. + Specify if the missaligned access are allowed + (non-strict) or result in an alignment exception + (strict). + +Devices (if included in the file device_table.c) can also be specified +in a similar way. For instance, to add a second serial port, a +command like: + + -o '/iobus@0x400000/console@0x000010' + +would create a `console' device at offset 0x10 within the `iobus' at +memory address 0x400000. + +For more detailed information on device specifiers see the notes on +the function dump_device_tree in the file device.c (found in the +source code). + + + ---------------------------------------------------------------------- + + +BUILDING A BUG/OEA DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT + + +Background: + + +Included in many PowerPC systems is Motorola's BUG monitor. This +monitor includes, for client programs, a set of services that allow +that program to interact with hardware devices such as the console using +a simple system call interface. + +PSIM is able to emulate a number of the services (including the +console IO calls). If additional services are needed they can easily +be added. + +Cygnus support's newlib library includes includes an interface to the +MOTO BUG services. The notes below discuss how I both built and run +programs compiled using this library on PSIM. + +The only confusing part about building a development environment based +around newlib/binutils/gcc is a chicken/egg problem with include +files: + + For GCC to build, a fairly complete set of include + files must be installed but newlib won't install its + include files until it has been built with gcc ... + +I get around this by installing the problematic include files by hand. + + +Preparation: + + +The following files are needed: + +From your favorite FTP site, the sources to gas/ld and gcc - mine +happens to be archie.au : + + ftp://archie.au/gnu/binutils-2.6.tar.gz + ftp://archie.au/gnu/gcc-2.7.2.tar.gz + +From ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/newlib the source code to a library: + + ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/newlib/newlib-1.7.0.tar.gz + +From ftp://ftp.ci.com.au/pub/psim some minor patches and updates to +the above library: + + ftp://ftp.ci.com.au/pub/psim/newlib-1.7.0+float+ppc-asm.tar.gz + ftp://ftp.ci.com.au/pub/psim/newlib-1.7.0+ppc-fix.diff.gz + ftp://ftp.ci.com.au/pub/psim/binutils-2.6+note.diff.gz + +In addition you'll need to decide where you will be installing the +development environment.
