3.1. Overview
TSIM can operate in two modes: standalone and attached to gdb. In standalone mode, ERC32 or LEON applications can be loaded and simulated using a command line interface. A number of commands are available to examine data, insert breakpoints and advance simulation. When attached to gdb, TSIM acts as a remote gdb target, and applications are loaded and debugged through gdb (or a gdb front-end such as ddd).
3.2. Starting TSIM
TSIM is started as follows on a command line:
tsim-erc32 [ options ] [ input_files ]

-uartX device
Here X, can be 1 or 2. By default, UART1 is connected to stdin/stdout and UART2 is disconnected. This switch can be used to connect the uarts to other devices. E.g., ‘-uart1 /dev/ptypc’ will attach UART1 to ptypc. On Linux ‘-uart1 /dev/ptmx‘ can be used in which case the pseudo terminal slave’s name to use will be printed. If you use minicom to connect to the uart then use minicom’s -p <pseudo terminal> option. On windows use //./com1, //./com2 etc. to access the serial ports. The serial port settings can be adjusted by doubleclicking the “Ports (COM and LPT)” entry in controlpanel->system->hardware->devicemanager. Use the “Port Setting” tab in the dialogue that pops up.
-ut699
Set parameters to emulate the UT699 device. Must be used when using the UT699 AHB module.

Executable files to be loaded into memory. The input file is loaded into the emulated memory according to the entry point for each segment. Recognized formats are elf32, aout and srecords.
Command line options can also be specified in the file .tsimcfg in the home directory. This file will be read at startup and the contents will be appended to the command line.
3.3. Standalone mode commands
If the file .tsimrc exists in the home directory, it will be used as a batch file and the commands in it will be executed at startup.
Below is a description of commands that are recognized by the simulator when used in standalone mode:
batch file
Execute a batch file of TSIM commands.
+bp, break address
Adds an breakpoint at address .
bp, break
Prints all breakpoints and watchpoints.
-bp, del [ num ]
Deletes breakpoint/watchpoint num . If num is omitted, all breakpoints and watchpoints are deleted.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual bt
Print backtrace.

cont [ count/time ]
Continue execution at present position. See the go [ address ] [ count/time ] command for how
to specify count or time.
coverage <enable | disable | save [ file_name ] | clear | print address [len] >
Code coverage control. Coverage can be enabled, disabled, cleared, saved to a file or printed to the console.
dump file address length
Dumps memory content to file file , in whole aligned words. The address argument can be a symbol.
dis [ addr ] [ count ]
Disassemble [ count ] instructions at address [ addr ]. Default values for count is 16 and addr is the program counter address.
echo string
Print string to the simulator window.
edac [clear | cerr | merr address ]
Insert EDAC errors, or clear EDAC checksums (ERC32 only) event
Print events in the event queue. Only user-inserted events are printed.
flush [all | icache | dcache | addr ]

dcache will flush the respective cache. Specifying addr will flush the corresponding line in both caches.
float
Prints the FPU registers gdb
Listen for gdb connection.
go [ address ] [ count/time ]
The go command will set pc to address and npc to address + 4, and resume execution. No other initialisation will be done. If address is not given, the default load address will be assumed. If a count is specified, execution will stop after the specified number of instructions. If a time is given, execution will continue until time is reached (relative to the current time). The time can be given in micro-seconds, milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours or days by adding ‘us’, ‘ms’, ‘s’, ‘min’, ‘h’ or ‘d’ to the time expression. Example: go 0x40000000 400 ms.
NOTE: For the go command, if the count/time parameter is given, address must be specified.
help
Print a small help menu for the TSIM commands.
hist [ length ]
Enable the instruction trace buffer. The length last executed instructions will be placed in the trace buffer. A hist command without length will display the trace buffer. Specifying a zero trace length
will disable the trace buffer. See the inst [ length ] command for displaying only a part of the in-
struction trace buffer.
icache, dcache
Dumps the contents of tag and data cache memories (LEON only).

version
Prints the TSIM version and build date.
walk address [iswrite|isid|issu]*
If the MMU is enabled printout a table walk for the given address. The flags iswrite, isid and issu are specifying the context: iswrite for a write access (default read), isid for a icache access (default dcache), issu for a supervisor access (default user).
watch address
Adds a watchpoint at address .
wmem, wmemh, wmemb address value
Write a word, half-word or byte directly to simulated memory.
xwmem asi address value
Write a word to simulated memory using ASI= asi . Applicable to LEON3/4.
Typing a ‘Ctrl-C’ will interrupt a running simulator. Short forms of the commands are allowed, e.g c, co, or con, are all interpreted as cont.
3.4. Symbolic debug information
TSIM will automatically extract (.text) symbol information from elf-files. The symbols can be used where an address is expected: tsim> break main breakpoint 3 at 0x020012f0: main tsim> dis strcmp 5
02002c04 84120009 or %o0, %o1, %g2
02002c08 8088a003 andcc %g2, 0x3, %g0
02002c0c 3280001a bne,a 0x02002c74
02002c10 c64a0000 ldsb [%o0], %g3
02002c14 c6020000 ld [%o0], %g3
The sym command can be used to display all symbols, or to read in symbols from an alternate (elf) file: tsim> sym /opt/rtems/src/examples/samples/dhry read 234 symbols tsim> sym
0x02000000 L _text_start
0x02000000 L _trap_table
0x02000000 L text_start
0x02000000 L start
0x0200102c L _window_overflow
0x02001084 L _window_underflow
0x020010dc L _fpdis
0x02001a4c T Proc_3
Reading symbols from alternate files is necessary when debugging self-extracting applications, such as bootproms created with mkprom or linux/uClinux.
3.5. Breakpoints and watchpoints
TSIM supports execution breakpoints and write data watchpoints. In standalone mode, hardware breakpoints are always used and no instrumentation of memory is made. When using the gdb interface, the gdb ‘break’
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 11 command normally uses software breakpoints by overwriting the breakpoint address with a ‘ta 1’ instruction.
Hardware breakpoints can be inserted by using the gdb ‘hbreak’ command or by starting tsim with -hwbp, which will force the use of hardware breakpoints also for the gdb ‘break’ command. Data write watchpoints are inserted using the ‘watch’ command. A watchpoint can only cover one word address, block watchpoints are not available.
3.6. Profiling
The profiling function calculates the amount of execution time spent in each subroutine of the simulated program. This is made without intervention or instrumentation of the code by periodically sample the execution point and the associated call tree. Cycles in the call graph are properly handled, as well as sections of the code where no stack is available (e.g. trap handlers). The profiling information is printed as a list sorted on highest execution time ration. Profiling is enabled through the prof 1 command. The sampling period is by default 1000 clocks which typically provides a good compromise between accuracy and performance.
Other sampling periods can also be set through the prof 1 n command. Profiling can be disabled through the prof 0 command. Below is an example profiling the dhrystone benchmark: bash$tsim-erc32 /opt/rtems/src/examples/samples/dhry tsim> pro 1 profiling enabled, sample period 1000 tsim> go resuming at 0x02000000
Execution starts, 200000 runs through Dhrystone

3.7. Code coverage
To aid software verification, the professional version of TSIM includes support for code coverage. When enabled, code coverage keeps a record for each 32-bit word in the emulated memory and monitors whether the location has been read, written or executed. The coverage function is controlled by the coverage command: coverage enable coverage disable coverage save [filename] coverage print address [len] coverage clear enable coverage disable coverage write coverage data to file (file name optional) print coverage data to console, starting at address reset coverage data
The coverage data for each 32-bit word of memory consists of a 5-bit field, with bit0 (lsb) indicating that the word has been executed, bit1 indicating that the word has been written, and bit2 that the word has been read. Bit3 and bit4 indicates the presence of a branch instruction; if bit3 is set then the branch was taken while bit4 is set if the branch was not taken.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 12
As an example, a coverage data of 0x6 would indicate that the word has been read and written, while 0x1 would indicate that the word has been executed. When the coverage data is printed to the console or save to a file, it is presented for one block of 32 words (128 bytes) per line: tsim> cov print start
02000000 : 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0
02000080 : 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
02000100 : 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
02000180 : 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
When the code coverage is saved to file, only blocks with at least one coverage field set are written to the file. Block that have all the coverage fields set to zero are not saved in order to decrease the file size.
NOTE: Only the internally emulated memory (PROM, SRAM and SDRAM) are subject for code coverage.
Any memory emulated in the user's I/O module must be handled by a user-defined coverage function.
The address ranges that are monitored are based on TSIM's startup parameters. For instance, the range corresponding to the SDRAM for LEON will begin at address 0x40000000 if TSIM was started with nosram or -ram 0, or will begin at 0x60000000 otherwise. Reconfiguration of the memory controller during execution will not be taken into account for monitored address ranges. Coverage information on memory reads will be recorded even for cache hits.
NOTE on MMU and coverage: The monitored ranges are based on physical addresses. The TSIM coverage system does no address translations by default, for performance reasons. To get proper physical address coverage when the MMU is is enabled and not mapping 1-to-1, use the -covtrans option. There is no support for getting virtual address coverage.
When coverage is enabled, disassembly will include an extra column after the address, indicating the coverage data. This makes it easier to analyse which instructions has not been executed: tsim> di start

The coverage data is not saved or restored during check-pointing operations. When enabled, the coverage function reduces the simulation performance of about 30%. When disabled, the coverage function does not impact simulation performance. Individual coverage fields can be read and written using the TSIM function interface using the tsim_coverage()
call (see Section 6.2). Enabling and disabling the coverage func-
tionality from the function interface should be done using tsim_cmd() .
Example scripts for annotating C code using saved coverage information from TSIM can be found in the coverage sub-directory.
3.8. Check-pointing
The professional version of TSIM can save and restore its complete state, allowing to resume simulation from a saved check-point. Saving the state is done with the save command:
tsim> save file_name
The state is saved to file_name.tss
. To restore the state, use the restore command:
tsim> restore file_name
The state will be restored from file_name.tss
. Restore directly at startup can be performed with the
‘ -rest file_name ’ command line switch.
NOTE: TSIM command line options are not stored (such as alternate UART devices, etc.).
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 13
NOTE: AT697, UT699, UT700 and GR712 simulation modules do not support check-pointing.
3.9. Performance
TSIM is highly optimised, and capable of simulating ERC32 systems faster than realtime. On high-end
Athlon processors, TSIM achieves more than 1 MIPS / 100 MHz (CPU frequency of host). Enabling various debugging features such as watchpoints, profiling and code coverage can however reduce the simulation performance with up to 40%.
3.10. Backtrace
The bt command will display the current call backtrace and associated stack pointer: tsim> bt
%pc %sp
#0 0x0200190c 0x023ffcc8 Proc_1 + 0xf0
#1 0x02001520 0x023ffd38 main + 0x230
#2 0x02001208 0x023ffe00 _start + 0x60
#3 0x02001014 0x023ffe40 start + 0x1014
3.11. Connecting to gdb
TSIM can act as a remote target for gdb, allowing symbolic debugging of target applications. To initiate gdb communication, start the simulator with the -gdb switch or use the TSIM gdb command: bash-2.04$ ./tsim -gdb
TSIM/LEON - remote SPARC simulator, build 2001.01.10 (demo version) serial port A on stdin/stdout allocated 4096 K RAM memory allocated 2048 K ROM memory gdb interface: using port 1234
Then, start gdb in a different window and connect to TSIM using the extended-remote protocol: bash-2.04$ sparc-rtems-gdb t4.exe
(gdb) target extended-remote localhost:1234
Remote debugging using localhost:1234
0x0 in ?? ()
(gdb)
To interrupt simulation, Ctrl-C can be typed in both gdb and TSIM windows. The program can be restarted using the gdb run command but a load has first to be executed to reload the program image into the simulator:
(gdb) load
Loading section .text, size 0x14e50 lma 0x40000000
Loading section .data, size 0x640 lma 0x40014e50
Start address 0x40000000 , load size 87184
Transfer rate: 697472 bits/sec, 278 bytes/write.
(gdb) run
The program being debugged has been started already.
Start it from the beginning? (y or n) y
Starting program: /home/jgais/src/gnc/t4.exe
If gdb is detached using the detach command, the simulator returns to the command prompt, and the program can be debugged using the standard TSIM commands. The simulator can also be re-attached to gdb by issuing the gdb command to the simulator (and the target command to gdb). While attached, normal TSIM commands can be executed using the gdb monitor command. Output from the TSIM commands is then displayed in the gdb console.
TSIM translates SPARC traps into (Unix) signals which are properly communicated to gdb. If the application encounters a fatal trap, simulation will be stopped exactly on the failing instruction. The target memory and register values can then be examined in gdb to determine the error cause.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 14
Profiling an application executed from gdb is possible if the symbol table is loaded in TSIM before execution is started. gdb does not download the symbol information to TSIM, so the symbol table should be loaded using the monitor command:
(gdb) monitor sym t4.exe
read 158 symbols
When an application that has been compiled using the gcc -mflat option is debugged through gdb, TSIM should be started with -mflat in order to generate the correct stack frames to gdb.
3.12. Thread support
TSIM has thread support for the RTEMS operating system. Additional OS support will be added to future versions. The GDB interface of TSIM is also thread aware and the related GDB commands are described later.

3.12.2. GDB thread commands
TSIM needs the symbolic information of the image that is being debugged to be able to check for thread information. Therefore the symbols needs to be read from the image using the sym command before issuing the gdb command. When a program running in GDB stops TSIM reports which thread it is in. The command
info threads can be used in GDB to list all known threads.
Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
4. Emulation characteristics
17
4.1. Common behaviour
4.1.1. Timing
The simulator time is maintained and incremented according the IU and FPU instruction timing. The parallel execution between the IU and FPU is modelled, as well as stalls due to operand dependencies. Instruction timing has been modelled after the real devices. Integer instructions have a higher accuracy than floating-point instructions due to the somewhat unpredictable operand-dependent timing of the ERC32 and
LEON MEIKO FPU. Typical usage patterns have higher accuracy than atypical ones, e.g. having vs. not having caches enabled on LEON systems. Tracing using the inst or hist command will display the current simulator time in the left column. This time indicates when the instruction is fetched. Cache misses, waitstates or data dependencies will delay the following fetch according to the incurred delay.
4.1.2. UARTs
If the baudrate register is written by the application software, the UARTs will operate with correct timing.
If the baudrate is left at the default value, or if the -fast_uart switch was used, the UARTs operate at infinite speed. This means that the transmitter holding register always is empty and a transmitter empty interrupt is generated directly after each write to the transmitter data register. The receivers can never overflow or generate errors.
Note that with correct UART timing, it is possible that the last character of a program is not displayed on the console. This can happen if the program forces the processor in error mode, thereby terminating the simulation, before the last character has been shifted out from the transmitter shift register. To avoid this, an application should poll the UART status register and not force the processor in error mode before the transmitter shift registers are empty. The real hardware does not exhibit this problem since the UARTs continue to operate even when the processor is halted.
4.1.3. Floating point unit (FPU)
The simulator maps floating-point operations on the hosts floating point capabilities. This means that accuracy and generation of IEEE exceptions is host dependent and will not always be identical to the actual
ERC32/LEON hardware. The simulator implements (to some extent) data-dependant execution timing as in the real MEKIO FPU (ERC32/LEON2). For LEON3/4, the -grfpu switch will enable emulation of the
GRFPU instruction timing.
4.1.4. Delayed write to special registers
The SPARC architecture defines that a write to the special registers (%psr, %wim, %tbr, %fsr, %y) may have up to 3 delay cycles, meaning that up to 3 of the instructions following a special register write might not ‘see’ the newly written value due to pipeline effects. While ERC32 and LEON have between 2 and 3 delay cycles,
TSIM has 0. This does not affect simulation accuracy or timing as long as the SPARC ABI recommendations are followed that each special register write must always be followed by three NOP. If the three NOP are left out, the software might fail on real hardware while still executing ‘correctly’ on the simulator.
4.1.5. Idle-loop optimisation
To minimise power consumption, LEON and ERC32 applications will typically place the processor in power-down mode when the idle task is scheduled in the operation system. In power-down mode, TSIM increments the event queue without executing any instructions, thereby significantly improving simulation performance. However, some (poorly written) code might use a busy loop (BA 0) instead of triggering power-down mode. The -bopt switch will enable a detection mechanism which will identify such behaviour and optimise the simulation as if the power-down mode was entered.
4.1.6. Custom instruction emulation
TSIM/LEON allows the emulation of custom (non-SPARC) instructions. A handler for non-standard in-
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 18 is called each time an instruction is encountered that would cause an unimplemented instruction trap. The handler is passed the opcode and all processor registers in a pointer, allowing it to decode and emulate a custom instruction, and update the processor state.
The definition for the custom instruction handler is: int myhandler (struct ins_interface *r);
The pointer *r is a structure containing the current instruction opcode and processor state: struct ins_interface {
uint32 psr; /* Processor status registers */
uint32 tbr; /* Trap base register */
uint32 wim; /* Window maks register */
uint32 g[8]; /* Global registers */
uint32 r[128]; /* Windowed register file */
uint32 y; /* Y register */
uint32 pc; /* Program counter *
uint32 npc; /* Next program counter */
uint32 inst; /* Current instruction */
uint32 icnt; /* Clock cycles in curr inst */
uint32 asr17;
uint32 asr18;
};
SPARC uses an overlapping windowed register file, and accessing registers must be done using the current window pointer (%psr[4:0]). To access registers %r8 - %r31 in the current window, use:
cwp = r->psr & 7;
regval = r->r[((cwp << 4) + RS1) % (nwindows * 16)];
Note that global registers (%r0 - %r7) should always be accessed by r->g[RS1] .
The return value of the custom handler indicates which trap the emulated instruction has generated, or 0 if no trap was caused. If the handler could not decode the instruction, 2 should be returned to cause an unimplemented instruction trap.
The number of clocks consumed by the instruction should be returned in r->icnt; This value is by default 1, which corresponds to a fully pipelined instruction without data interlock. The handler should not increment the %pc or %npc registers, as this is done by TSIM.
4.1.7. Chip-specific errata
Incorrect behavior described in errata documents for specific devices are not emulated by TSIM in general.
4.2. ERC32 specific emulation
4.2.1. Processor emulation
TSIM/ERC32 emulates the behaviour of the TSC695 processor from Atmel by default. The parallel execution between the IU and FPU is modelled, as well as stalls due to operand dependencies (IU & FPU). Starting
TSIM with the -tsc691 will enable TSC691 emulation (3-chip ERC32).
4.2.2. MEC emulation

The MEC registers can be displayed with the mec command, or using mem (‘mem 0x1f80000 256’). The registers can also be written using wmem (e.g. ‘wmem 0x1f80000 0x1234’). When written, care has to be taken not to write an unimplemented register bit with ‘1’, or a MEC parity error will occur.
4.2.3. Interrupt controller
Internal interrupts are generated as defined in the MEC specification. All 15 interrupts can be tested via the interrupt force register. External interrupts can be generated through loadable modules.
4.2.4. Watchdog
The watchdog timer operate as defined in the MEC specification. The frequency of the watchdog clock can be specified using the -wdfreq switch. The frequency is specified in MHz.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 20
4.2.5. Power-down mode
The power-down register (0x01f800008) is implemented as in the specification. A Ctrl-C in the simulator window will exit the power-down mode. In power-down mode, the simulator skips time until the next event in the event queue, thereby significantly increasing the simulation speed.
4.2.6. Memory emulation
The amount of simulated memory is configured through the -ram and -rom switches. The RAM size can be between 256 KiB and 32 MiB, the ROM size between 128 KiB and 4 MiB. Access to unimplemented
MEC registers or non-existing memory will result in a memory exception trap.
The memory configuration register is used to decode the simulated memory. The fields RSIZ and PSIZ are used to set RAM and ROM size, the remaining fields are not used.
NOTE: After reset, the MEC is set to decode 128 KiB of ROM and 256 KiB of RAM. The memory configuration register has to be updated to reflect the available memory. The waitstate configuration register is used to generate waitstates. This register must also be updated with the correct configuration after reset.
4.2.7. EDAC operation
The EDAC operation of ERC32 is implemented on the simulated RAM area (0x2000000 - 0x2FFFFFF).
The ERC32 Test Control Register can be used to enable the EDAC test mode and insert EDAC errors to test the operation of the EDAC. The edac command can be used to monitor the number of errors in the memory, to insert new errors, or clear all errors. To see the current memory status, use the edac command without parameters: tsim> edac
RAM error count : 2
0x20000000 : MERR
0x20000040 : CERR
TSIM keeps track of the number of errors currently present, and reports the total error count, the address of each error, and its type. The errors can either be correctable (CERR) or non-correctable (MERR). To insert an error using the edac command, do ‘ edac cerr addr ’ or ‘ edac merr addr ’ : tsim> edac cerr 0x2000000 correctable error at 0x02000000 tsim> edac
RAM error count : 1
0x20000000 : CERR
To remove all injected errors, do edac clear. When accessing a location with an EDAC error, the behaviour of TSIM is identical to the real hardware. A correctable error will trigger interrupt 1, while un-correctable errors will cause a memory exception. The operation of the FSFR and FAR registers are fully implemented.
NOTE: The EDAC operation affect simulator performance when there are inserted errors in the memory. To obtain maximum simulation performance, any diagnostic software should remove all inserted errors after having performed an EDAC test.
4.2.8. Extended RAM and I/O areas
TSIM allows emulation of user defined I/O devices through loadable modules. EDAC emulation of extended
RAM areas is not supported.
4.2.9. SYSAV signal
TSIM emulates changes in the SYSAV output by calling the command() callback in the I/O module with either “sysav 0” or “sysav 1” on each changes of SYSAV.
4.2.10. EXTINTACK signal
TSIM emulates assertion of the EXTINTACK output by calling the command() callback in the I/O module with “extintack” on each assertion. Note that EXTINTACK is only asserted for one external interrupt as programmed in the MEC interrupt shape register.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
4.2.11. IWDE signal
21
The TSC695E processor input signal can be controlled by the -iwde switch at start-up. If the switch is given, the IWDE signal will be high, and the internal watchdog enabled. If -iwde is not given, IWDE will be low and the internal watchdog will be disabled. Note that the simulator must started in TSC695E-mode using the -tsc695e switch, for this option to take effect.
4.3. LEON2 specific emulation
4.3.1. Processor
The LEON2 version of TSIM emulates the behavior of the LEON2 VHDL model. The (optional) MMU can be emulated using the -mmu switch.
4.3.2. Cache memories
TSIM/LEON2 can emulate any permissible cache configuration using the -icsize , -ilsize , -dcsize and -dlsize options. Allowed sizes are 1 - 64 KiB with 16 - 32 bytes/line. The characteristics of the LEON multi-set caches can be emulated using the -isets , -dsets , -irepl , -drelp , -ilock and -dlock options. Diagnostic cache reads/writes are implemented. The simulator commands icache and dcache can be used to display cache contents. Starting TSIM with -at697e will configure that caches according to the Atmel AT697E device.
4.3.3. LEON peripherals registers
The LEON peripherals registers can be displayed with the leon command, or using mem (‘mem 0x80000000
256’). The registers can also be written using wmem (e.g. ‘wmem 0x80000000 0x1234’).
4.3.4. Interrupt controller
External interrupts are not implemented, so the I/O port interrupt register has no function. Internal interrupts are generated as defined in the LEON specification. All 15 interrupts can also be generated from the user defined I/O module using the set_irq() callback.
4.3.5. Power-down mode
The power-down register 0x80000018) is implemented as in the specification. A Ctrl-C in the simulator window will exit the power-down mode. In power-down mode, the simulator skips time until the next event in the event queue, thereby significantly increasing the simulation speed.
4.3.6. Memory emulation
The memory configuration registers 1/2 are used to decode the simulated memory. The memory configuration registers has to be programmed by software to reflect the available memory, and the number and size of the memory banks. The waitstates fields must also be programmed with the correct configuration after reset. Both SRAM and functionally modelled SDRAM (with SRAM timing) can be emulated.
Using the -banks option, it is possible to set over how many RAM banks the external SRAM is divided in. Note that software compiled with BCC/RCC, and not run through mkprom must not use this option. For mkprom encapsulated programs, it is essential that the same RAM size and bank number setting is used for both mkprom and TSIM.
The memory EDAC of LEON2-FT is not implemented.
4.3.7. SPARC V8 MUL/DIV/MAC instructions
TSIM/LEON optionally supports the SPARC V8 multiply, divide and MAC instruction. To correctly emulate LEON systems which do not implement these instructions, use the -nomac to disable the MAC instruction and/or -nov8 to disable multiply and divide instructions.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual

The AHB/APB plug&play information is provided at address 0xFFFFF000 -
0xFFFFFFFF (AHB) and 0x800FF000 - 0x800FFFFF (APB).
4.4.2. Processor
The instruction timing of the emulated LEON3 processor is modelled after LEON3 VHDL model in GRLIB
IP library. The processor can be configured with 2 - 32 register windows using the -nwin switch. The
MMU can be emulated using the -mmu switch. Local scratch pad RAM can be added with the -ilram and -dlram switches.
4.4.3. Cache memories
The evaluation version of TSIM/LEON3 implements 2*4 KiB caches, with 16 bytes per line. The commercial TSIM version can emulate any permissible cache configuration using the -icsize , -ilsize , -dcsize and -dlsize options. Allowed sizes are 1 - 256 KiB with 16 - 32 bytes/line. The characteristics of the LEON multi-way caches can be emulated using the -isets , -dsets , -irepl , -drelp , -ilock and -dlock options. Diagnostic cache reads/writes are implemented. The simulator commands icache and
dcache can be used to display cache contents.
4.4.4. Power-down mode
The LEON3 power-down function is implemented as in the specification. A Ctrl-C in the simulator window will exit the power-down mode. In power-down mode, the simulator skips time until the next event in the event queue, thereby significantly increasing the simulation speed.
4.4.5. LEON3 peripherals registers
The LEON3 peripherals registers can be displayed with the leon command, or using mem (‘mem
0x80000000 256’). The registers can also be written using wmem (e.g. ‘wmem 0x80000000 0x1234’).
4.4.6. Interrupt controller
The IRQMP interrupt controller is fully emulated as described in the GRLIB IP Manual. The IRQMP registers are mapped at address 0x80000200. All 15 interrupts can also be generated from the user-defined I/
O module using the set_irq() callback.
4.4.7. Memory emulation
The LEON2 memory controller is emulated in the LEON3 version of TSIM. The memory configuration registers 1/2 are used to decode the simulated memory. The memory configuration registers has to be programmed by software to reflect the available memory, and the number and size of the memory banks. The waitstates fields must also be programmed with the correct configuration after reset. Both SRAM and functionally modelled SDRAM (with SRAM timing) can be emulated.
Using the -banks option, it is possible to set over how many RAM banks the external SRAM is divided in. Note that software compiled with BCC/RCC, and not run through mkprom must not use this option. For mkprom encapsulated programs, it is essential that the same RAM size and bank number setting is used for both mkprom and TSIM.
The memory EDAC of LEON3-FT is not implemented.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 23
Options regarding memory characteristics are not available in the evaluation version of TSIM/LEON3.
4.4.8. CASA instruction
The SPARCV9 “casa” command is implemented if the -cas switch is given. The “casa” instruction is used in VXWORKS SMP multiprocessing to synchronize using a lock free protocol.
4.4.9. SPARC V8 MUL/DIV/MAC instructions
TSIM/LEON3 optionally supports the SPARC V8 multiply, divide and MAC instruction. To correctly emulate LEON systems which do not implement these instructions, use the -nomac to disable the MAC instruction and/or -nov8 to disable multiply and divide instructions.
4.4.10. DSU and hardware breakpoints
The LEON debug support unit (DSU) and the hardware watchpoints (%asr24 - %asr31) are not emulated.
4.4.11. AHB status registers
When using -ahbstatus or a chip option for a chip that has AHB status registers, AHB status registers are enabled. As TSIM/LEON3 does not emulate FT, the CE bit will never be set. Furthermore, the HMASTER field is set to 0 when the CPU caused the error and 1 when any other master caused the error.
4.5. LEON4 specific emulation
4.5.1. General
The LEON4 version of TSIM emulates the behavior of the LEON4MP template VHDL model distributed in the GRLIB-1.0.x IP library. The system includes the following modules: LEON4 processor, APB bridge,
IRQMP interrupt controller, LEON2 memory controller, L2 cache, GPTIMER timer unit with two 32-bit timers, two APBUART uarts. The AHB/APB plug&play information is provided at address 0xFFFFF000 -
0xFFFFFFFF (AHB) and 0x800FF000 - 0x800FFFFF (APB).
4.5.2. Processor
The instruction timing of the emulated LEON4 processor is modelled after LEON4 VHDL model in GRLIB
IP library. The processor can be configured with 2 - 32 register windows using the -nwin switch. The
MMU can be emulated using the -mmu switch. Local scratch pad RAM can be added with the -ilram and -dlram switches.
4.5.3. L1 Cache memories
TSIM/LEON4 can emulate any permissible cache configuration using the -icsize , -ilsize , -dcsize and -dlsize options. Allowed sizes are 1 - 256 KiB with 16 - 32 bytes/line. The characteristics of the
LEON multi-set caches can be emulated using the -isets , -dsets , -irepl , -drelp , -ilock and
-dlock options. Diagnostic cache reads/writes are implemented. The simulator commands icache and
dcache can be used to display cache contents.
4.5.4. L2 Cache memory
The LEON4 L2 cache is emulated, and placed between the memory controller and AHB bus. Both the PROM and SRAM/SDRAM areas are cached in the L2. The size of the L2 cache is default 64 KiB, but can be configured to any (binary aligned) size using the -l2wsize switch at start-up. Setting the size to 0 will disable the L2 cache. The L2 cache is implemented with one way and 32 bytes/line. The contents of the L2 cache can be displayed with the l2cache command.
4.5.5. Power-down mode
The LEON4 power-down function is implemented as in the specification. A Ctrl-C in the simulator window will exit the power-down mode. In power-down mode, the simulator skips time until the next event in the event queue, thereby significantly increasing the simulation speed.

4.5.11. GRFPU emulation
By default, TSIM-LEON4 emulates the GRFPU-Lite FPU. If the simulator is started with -grfpu , the fully pipelined GRFPU is emulated. Due to the complexity of the GRFPU, the instruction timing is approximated and might show some discrepancies compared to the real hardware.
4.5.12. DSU and hardware breakpoints
The LEON debug support unit (DSU) and the hardware watchpoints (%asr24 - %asr31) are not emulated.
4.5.13. AHB status registers

CE bit will never be set. Furthermore, the HMASTER field is set to 0 when the CPU caused the error and
1 when any other master caused the error.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
5. Loadable modules
25
5.1. TSIM I/O emulation interface
User-defined I/O devices can be loaded into the simulator through the use of loadable modules. As the real processor, the simulator primarily interacts with the emulated device through read and write requests, while the emulated device can optionally generate interrupts and DMA requests. This is implemented through the module interface described below. The interface is made up of two parts; one that is exported by TSIM and defines TSIM functions and data structures that can be used by the I/O device; and one that is exported by the I/O device and allows TSIM to access the I/O device. Address decoding of the I/O devices is straightforward: All access that do not map on the internally emulated memory and control registers are forwarded to the I/O module.
TSIM exports two structures: simif and ioif. The simif structure defines functions and data structures belonging to the simulator core, while ioif defines functions provided by system (ERC32/LEON) emulation.
At startup, TSIM searches for ‘io.so’ in the current directory, but the location of the module can be specified using the -iom switch. Note that the module must be compiled to be position-independent, i.e. with the fPIC switch (gcc). The win32 version of TSIM loads io.dll instead of io.so. See the iomod directory in the
TSIM distribution for an example io.c and how to build the .so and .dll modules. The enviromental variable
TSIM_MODULE_PATH can be set to a ‘:’ separated (‘;’ in WIN32) list of search paths.
5.1.1. simif structure
The simif structure is defined in sim.h: struct sim_options {
int phys_ram;
int phys_sdram;
int phys_rom;
double freq;
double wdfreq;
}; struct sim_interface {
struct sim_options *options; /* tsim command-line options */
uint64 *simtime; /* current simulator time */
void (*event)(void (*cfunc)(), uint32 arg, uint64 offset);
void (*stop_event)(void (*cfunc)());
int *irl; /* interrup request level */
void (*sys_reset)(); /* reset processor */
void (*sim_stop)(); /* stop simulation */
char *args; /* concaterated argv */
void (*stop_event_arg)(void (*cfunc)(),int arg,int op);
/* Restorable events */
unsigned short (*reg_revent)(void (*cfunc) (unsigned long arg));
unsigned short (*reg_revent_prearg)(void (*cfunc) (unsigned long arg),
unsigned long arg);
int (*revent)(unsigned short index, unsigned long arg, uint64 offset);
int (*revent_prearg)(unsigned short index, uint64 offset);
void (*stop_revent)(unsigned short index);
}; struct sim_interface simif; /* exported simulator functions */
The elements in the structure has the following meaning: struct sim_options *options;
Contains some tsim startup options. options.freq defines the clock frequency of the emulated processor and can be used to correlate the simulator time to the real time.
uint64 *simtime;
Contains the current simulator time. Time is counted in clock cycles since start of simulation. To calculate the elapsed real time, divide simtime with options.freq.
void (*event)(void (*cfunc)(), int arg, uint64 offset);
TSIM maintains an event queue to emulate time-dependant functions. The event() function inserts an event in the event queue. An event consists of a function to be called when the event expires, an
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 26 argument with which the function is called, and an offset (relative the current time) defining when the event should expire.
NOTE: The event() function may NOT be called from a signal handler installed by the I/O module, but only from event callbacks or at start of simulation. The event queue can hold a maximum of 2048 events.
NOTE: For save and restore support, restorable events should be used instead.
void (*stop_event)(void (*cfunc)()); stop_event() will remove all events from the event queue which has the calling function equal to cfunc() .
NOTE: The stop_event() function may NOT be called from a signal handler installed by the I/
O module.
int *irl;
Current IU interrupt level. Should not be used by I/O functions unless they explicitly monitor theses lines.
void (*sys_reset)();
Performs a system reset. Should only be used if the I/O device is capable of driving the reset input.
void (*sim_stop)();
Stops current simulation. Can be used for debugging purposes if manual intervention is needed after a certain event.
char *args;
Arguments supplied when starting tsim. The arguments are concatenated as a single string.
void (*stop_event_arg)(void (*cfunc)(),int arg,int op);
Similar to stop_event() but differentiates between 2 events with same cfunc but with different arg given when inserted into the event queue via event() . Used when simulating multiple instances of an entity. Parameter op should be 1 to enable the arg check.
unsigned short (*reg_revent)(void (*cfunc) (unsigned long arg));
Registers a restorable event that will use cfunc as callback. The returned index should be used when calling revent() . The event argument is supplied when calling revent() . The call to reg_revent() should be done once at I/O or AHB module initialization.
unsigned short (*reg_revent_prearg)(void (*cfunc) (unsigned long arg), unsigned long arg);
Registers a restorable event that will use cfunc as callback and arg as argument. This can be used to register an argument that is a pointer to a data structure. The returned index should be used when calling revent_prearg() . The call to reg_revent_prearg() should be done once at I/O or
AHB module initialization.
int (*revent)(unsigned short index, unsigned long arg, uint64 offset);
This inserts an event registered by reg_revent() into the event queue with the registered cfunc for the given index . Multiple events with the same index can be in the event queue at the same time.
The arg and offset arguments are the same as for the event() function.
NOTE: See the description of event() for limitations on number of events and from which contexts events can be added.
int (*revent_prearg)(unsigned short index, uint64 offset);
This inserts an event registered by reg_revent_prearg() into the event queue with the registered cfunc and arg for the given index . Multiple events with the same index can be in the event queue at the same time. The offset argument is the same as for the event() function.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 27
NOTE: See the description of event() for limitations on number of events and from which contexts events can be added.
void (*stop_revent)(unsigned short index);
This removes all events from the event queue that has been entered by revent() or revent_prearg() using the given index .
NOTE: The stop_revent() function may not be called from a signal handler installed by the I/
O module.
5.1.2. ioif structure ioif is defined in sim.h: structio_interface {
void (*set_irq)(int irq, int level);
int (*dma_read)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int num);
int (*dma_write)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int num);
int (*dma_write_sub)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int sz);
}; extern struct io_interface ioif; /* exported processor interface */
The elements of the structure have the following meaning: void (*set_irq)(int irq, int level);
ERC32 use: drive the external MEC interrupt signal. Valid interrupts are 0 - 5 (corresponding to MEC external interrupt 0 - 4, and EWDINT) and valid levels are 0 or 1. Note that the MEC interrupt shape register controls how and when processor interrupts are actually generated. When -nouart has been used, MEC interrupts 4, 5 and 7 can be generated by calling set_irq() with irq 6, 7 and 9 (level is not used in this case.
LEON use: set the interrupt pending bit for interrupt irq. Valid values on irq is 1 - 15. Care should be taken not to set interrupts used by the LEON emulated peripherals. Note that the LEON interrupt control register controls how and when processor interrupts are actually generated. Note that level is not used with LEON.
int (*dma_read)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int num); int (*dma_write)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int num);
Performs DMA transactions to/from the emulated processor memory. Only 32-bit word transfers are allowed, and the address must be word aligned. On bus error, 1 is returned, otherwise 0. For ERC32, the
DMA transfer uses the external DMA interface. For LEON, DMA takes place on the AMBA AHB bus.
int (*dma_write_sub)(uint32 addr, uint32 *data, int sz);
Performs DMA transactions to/from the emulated processor memory on the AMBA AHB bus. Available for LEON only. On bus error, 1 is returned, otherwise 0. Write size is indicated by sz as follows: 0 = byte, 1 = half-word, 2 = word, 3 = double-word.
5.1.3. Structure to be provided by I/O device struct io_subsystem {
void (*io_init)(struct sim_interface sif, struct io_interface iif); /* start-up */
void (*io_exit)(); /* called once on exit */
void (*io_reset)(); /* called on processor reset */
void (*io_restart)(); /* called on simulator restart */
int (*io_read)(unsigned int addr, int *data, int *ws);
int (*io_write)(unsigned int addr, int *data, int *ws, int size);
char *(*get_io_ptr)(unsigned int addr, int size);
void (*command)(char * cmd); /* I/O specific commands */
void (*sigio)();/* called when SIGIO occurs */
void (*save)(char *fname);/* save simulation state */
void (*restore)(char *fname); /* restore simulation state */
}; extern struct io_subsystem *iosystem; /* imported I/O emulation functions */
The elements of the structure have the following meanings:
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 28 void (*io_init)(struct sim_interface sif, struct io_interface iif);
Called once on simulator startup. Set to NULL if unused.
void (*io_exit)();
Called once on simulator exit. Set to NULL if unused.
void (*io_reset)();
Called every time the processor is reset (i.e also startup). Set to NULL if unused.
void (*io_restart)();
Called every time the simulator is restarted (simtime set to zero). Set to NULL if unused.
int (*io_read)(unsigned int addr, int *data, int *ws);
Processor read call. The processor always reads one full 32-bit word from addr. The data should be returned in *data, the number of waitstates should be returned in *ws. If the access would fail (illegal address etc.), 1 should be returned, on success 0.
int (*io_write)(unsigned int addr, int *data, int *ws, int size);
Processor write call. The size of the written data is indicated in size: 0 = byte, 1 = half-word, 2 = word,
3 = doubleword. The address is provided in addr, and is always aligned with respect to the size of the written data. The number of waitstates should be returned in *ws. If the access would fail (illegal address etc.), 1 should be returned, on success 0.
char * (*get_io_ptr)(unsigned int addr, int size);
TSIM can access emulated memory in the I/O device in two ways: either through the io_read / io_write functions or directly through a memory pointer. get_io_ptr() is called with the target address and transfer size (in bytes), and should return a character pointer to the emulated memory array if the address and size is within the range of the emulated memory. If outside the range, -1 should be returned. Set to NULL if not used.
int (*command)(char * cmd);
The I/O module can optionally receive command-line commands. A command is first sent to the AHB and I/O modules, and if not recognised, the to TSIM. command() is called with the full command string in *cmd. Should return 1 if the command is recognized, otherwise 0. TSIM/ERC32 also calls this callback when the SYSAV bit in the ERSR register changes. The commands “sysav 0” and “sysav 1” are then issued. When TSIM commands are issued through the gdb ‘monitor’ command, a return value of 0 or 1 will result in an ‘OK’ response to the gdb command. A return value > 1 will send the value itself as the gdb response. A return value %lt; 1 will truncate the lsb 8 bits and send them back as a gdb error response: ‘E nn ’.
void (*sigio)();
Not used as of tsim-1.2, kept for compatibility reasons.
void (*save)(char *fname);
The save() function is called when save command is issued in the simulator. The I/O module should save any required state which is needed to completely restore the state at a later stage. *fname points to the base file name which is used by TSIM. TSIM saves its internal state to fname.tss. It is suggested that the I/O module save its state to fname.ios. Note that any events placed in the event queue by the
I/O module will be saved (and restored) by TSIM.
void (*restore)(char *fname);
The restore() function is called when restore command is issued in the simulator. The I/O module should restore any required state to resume operation from a saved check-point. *fname points to the base file name which is used by TSIM. TSIM restores its internal state from fname.tss.
5.1.4. Cygwin specific io_init()
Due to problems of resolving cross-referenced symbols in the module loading when using Cygwin, the io_init() routine in the I/O module must initialise a local copy of simif and ioif. This is done by providing the following io_init() routine:
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 29 static void io_init(struct sim_interface sif, struct io_interface iif)
{
#ifdef __CYGWIN32__
/* Do not remove, needed when compiling on Cygwin! */
simif = sif;
ioif = iif;
#endif
/* additional init code goes here */
};
The same method is also used in the AHB and FPU/CP modules.
5.2. LEON AHB emulation interface
In addition to the above described I/O modules, TSIM also allows emulation of the LEON2/3/4 processor core with a completely user-defined memory and I/O architecture. This is in other words not applicable to
ERC32. By loading an AHB module (ahb.so), the internal memory emulation is disabled. The emulated processor core communicates with the AHB module using an interface similar to the AHB master interface in the real LEON VHDL model. The AHB module can then emulate the complete AHB bus and all attached units.
The AHB module interface is made up of two parts; one that is exported by TSIM and defines TSIM functions and data structures that can be used by the AHB module; and one that is exported by the AHB module and allows TSIM to access the emulated AHB devices.
At start-up, TSIM searches for ‘ahb.so’ in the current directory, but the location of the module can be specified using the -ahbm switch. Note that the module must be compiled to be position-independent, i.e. with the -fPIC switch (gcc). The win32 version of TSIM loads ahb.dll instead of ahb.so. See the iomod directory in the TSIM distribution for an example ahb.c and how to build the .so /.dll modules. The enviromental variable TSIM_MODULE_PATH can be set to a ‘:’ separated (‘;’ in WIN32) list of search paths.
5.2.1. procif structure
TSIM exports one structure for AHB emulation: procif. The procif structure defines a few functions giving access to the processor emulation and cache behaviour. The procif structure is defined in tsim.h: struct proc_interface {
void (*set_irl)(int level); /* generate external interrupt */
void (*cache_snoop)(uint32 addr);
void (*cctrl)(uint32 *data, uint32 read);
void (*power_down)();
void (*set_irq_level)(int level, int set);
void (*set_irq)(uint32 irq, uint32 level); /* generate external interrupt */
}; extern struct proc_interface procif;
The elements in the structure have the following meaning: void (*set_irl)(int level);
Set the current interrupt level (iui.irl in VHDL model). Allowed values are 0 - 15, with 0 meaning no pending interrupt. Once the interrupt level is set, it will remain until it is changed by a new call to set_irl() . The modules interrupt callback routine should typically reset the interrupt level to avoid new interrupts.
void (*cache_snoop)(uint32 addr);
The cache_snoop() function can be used to invalidate data cache lines (regardless of whether data cache snooping is enabled or not). The tags to the given address will be checked, and if a match is detected the corresponding cache lines will be flushed (i.e. the tag will be cleared). If an MMU is present and is enabled the argument should be a virtual address. See also the snoop function in struct ahb_interface .
void (*cctrl)(uint32 *data, uint32 read);
Read and write the cache control register (CCR). The CCR is attached to the APB bus in the LEON2
VHDL model, and this function can be called by the AHB module to read and write the register. If read
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 30
= 1, the CCR value is returned in *data , else the value of *data is written to the CCR. The cctrl() function is only needed for LEON2 emulation, since LEON3/4 accesses the cache controller through a separate ASI load/store instruction.
void (*power_down)();
The LEON processor enters power down-mode when called.
void (*set_irq_level)(int level, int set);
Callback set_irq_level can be used to emulate level triggered interrupts. Parameter set should be 1 to activate the interrupt level specified in parameter level or 0 to reset it. The interrupt level will remain active after it is set until it is reset again. Multiple calls can be made with different level parameters in which case the highest level is used.
void (*set_irq)(uint32 irq, uint32 level);
Set the interrupt pending bit for interrupt irq. Valid values on irq is 1 - 15. Care should be taken not to set interrupts used by the LEON emulated peripherals. Note that the LEON interrupt control register controls how and when processor interrupts are actually generated.
5.2.2. Structure to be provided by AHB module tsim.h defines the structure to be provided by the emulated AHB module: struct ahb_access {
uint32 address;
uint32 *data;
uint32 ws;
uint32 rnum;
uint32 wsize;
uint32 cache; /* No longer used */
}; struct pp_amba {
int is_apb;
unsigned int vendor, device, version, irq;
struct {
unsigned int addr, p, c, mask, type;
} bars[4];
}; struct ahb_subsystem {
void (*init)(struct proc_interface procif);/* called once on start-up */
void (*exit)(); /* called once on exit */
void (*reset)(); /* called on processor reset */
void (*restart)(); /* called on simulator restart */
int (*read)(struct ahb_access *access);
int (*write)(struct ahb_access *access);
char *(*get_io_ptr)(unsigned int addr, int size);
int (*command)(char * cmd); /* I/O specific commands */
int (*sigio)(); /* called when SIGIO occurs */
void (*save)(char * fname); /* save state */
void (*restore)(char * fname); /* restore state */
int (*intack)(int level); /* interrupt acknowledge */
int (*plugandplay)(struct pp_amba **); /* LEON3/4: get plug & play information */
void (*intpend)(unsigned int pend); /* LEON3/4 only: interrupt pending change */
int meminit; /* tell tsim weather to initialize mem */
struct sim_interface *simif; /* initialized by tsim */
unsigned char *(*get_mem_ptr_ws)(); /* initialized if meminit was set */
void (*snoop) (unsigned int addr); /* initialized with cache snoop routine */
struct io_interface *io; /* initialized by tsim */
void (*dprint)(char *p); /* initialized by tsim, prints out a debug string */
struct proc_interface *proc; /* initialized by tsim, access to proc_interface */
int (*cacheable)(uint32 addr, uint32 size); /* Cacheability of area */
int (*lprintf)(const char *format, ...); /* initialized by tsim */
int (*vlprintf)(const char *format, va_list ap); /* initialized by tsim */
}; extern struct ahb_subsystem *ahbsystem; /* imported AHB emulation functions */
The elements of the structure have the following meanings: void (*init)(struct proc_interface procif);
Called once on simulator startup. Set to NULL if unused.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 31 void (*exit)();
Called once on simulator exit. Set to NULL if unused.
void (*reset)();
Called every time the processor is reset (i.e. also startup). Set to NULL if unused.
void (*restart)();
Called every time the simulator is restarted (simtime set to zero). Set to NULL if unused.
void int (*read)(struct ahb_access *ahbacc);
Processor AHB read. The processor always reads one or more 32-bit words from the AHB bus. The following fields of ahbacc is used. The ahbacc.addr field contains the read address of the first word to read. The ahbacc.data field points to a buffer that the module can fill in. The module can also change the pointer to point to a different buffer. The ahbacc.ws field should be set by the module to the number of cycles for the complete access. The ahbacc.rnum field contains the number of words to be read. The function should return 0 for a successful access, 1 for failed access and -1 for an area not handled by the module. The ahbacc.wsize field is not used during read cycles. The ahbacc.cache field is no longer in use (use struct ahb_subsystem.cacheable
instead).
int (*write)(struct ahb_access *ahbacc);
Processor AHB write. The processor can write 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes per access. The following fields of ahbacc is used. The ahbacc.addr field contains the address of the write. The ahbacc.data field points to the data to write; either one word for byte, half word or word writes or two words for double-word writes. The ahbacc.wsize field defines write size as follows: 0 = byte, 1 = half-word, 2 = word, 3 = double-word. The function should return 0 for a successful access, 1 for failed access and -1 for an area not handled by the module. The ahbacc.rnum field is not used during write cycles. The ahbacc.cache
field is no longer in use (use struct ahb_subsystem.cacheable
instead).
char * (*get_io_ptr)(unsigned int addr, int size);
During file load operations and displaying of memory contents, TSIM will access emulated memory through a memory pointer. get_io_ptr() is called with the target address and transfer size (in bytes), and should return a character pointer to the emulated memory array if the address and size is within the range of the emulated memory. If outside the range, -1 should be returned. Set to NULL if not used.
int (*command)(char * cmd);
The AHB module can optionally receive command-line commands. A command is first sent to the AHB and I/O modules, and if not recognised, then to TSIM. command() is called with the full command string in *cmd . Should return 1 if the command is recognized, otherwise 0. When TSIM commands are issued through the gdb ‘monitor’ command, a return value of 0 or 1 will result in an ‘OK’ response to the gdb command. A return value > 1 will send the value itself as the gdb response. A return value < 1 will truncate the lsb 8 bits and send them back as a gdb error response: ‘E nn ’.
void (*save)(char *fname);
The save() function is called when save command is issued in the simulator. The AHB module should save any required state which is needed to completely restore the state at a later stage. *fname points to the base file name which is used by TSIM. TSIM save its internal state to fname.tss. It is suggested that the AHB module save its state to fname.ahs. Note that any events placed in the event queue by the
AHB module will be saved (and restored) by TSIM.
void (*restore)(char * fname);
The restore() function is called when restore command is issued in the simulator. The AHB module should restore any required state to resume operation from a saved check-point. *fname points to the base file name which is used by TSIM. TSIM restores its internal state from fname.tss.
int (*intack)(int level); intack() is called when the processor takes an interrupt trap (tt = 0x11 - 0x1f). The level of the taken interrupt is passed in level. This callback can be used to implement interrupt controllers. intack() should return 1 if the interrupt acknowledgement was handled by the AHB module, otherwise 0. If 0 is returned, the default LEON interrupt controller will receive the intack instead.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 32 int (*plugandplay)(struct pp_amba **p);
Leon3/4 only: The plugandplay() function is called at startup. optioplugandplay() should return in p a static pointer to an array with elements of type struct pp_amba and return the number of entries in the array. The callback plugandplay() is used to add entries in the AHB and APB configuration space. Each struct pp_amba entry specifies an entry: If is_apb is set to 1 the entry will appear in the APB configuration space and only member bars[0] will be used. If is_apb is 0 then the entry will appear in the AHB slave configuration space and bars[0-3] will be used. If is_apb is 2 then the entry will appear in the AHB master configuration space and bars[0-3] will be used. The members of the struct resemble the fields in a configuration space entries. The entry is mapped to the first free slot.
void (*intpend)(unsigned int pend);
Leon3/4 only: The intpend() function is called when the set of pending interrupts changes. The pend argument is a bitmask with the bits of pending interrupts set to 1.
int meminit;
If all loaded AHB modules sets meminit to 1, TSIM will initialize and emulate initialize and emulate
SRAM/SDRAM/PROM memory. Thus, the AHB module should initialize meminit with 1 if TSIM
(or another AHB module) should handle memory simulation. Calls to read and write should return -1
(undecoded area) for the memory regions in which case TSIM (or possibly some other AHB module) will handle them. If meminit is set to 0 the AHB module itself should emulate the memory address regions.
struct sim_interface *simif;
Entry simif is initialized by tsim with the global struct sim_interface structure.
unsigned char *(*get_mem_ptr_ws) (unsigned int addr, int size, int *wws, int *rws)
If meminit was set to 1 tsim will initialize get_mem_ptr_ws with a callback that can be used to query a pointer to the host memory emulating the LEON’s memory, along with waitstate information.
Note that the host memory pointer returned is in the hosts byte order (normally little endian on a PC).
The size parameter should be the length of the access (1 for byte, 2 for short, 4 for word and 8 for double word access). The wws and rws parameters will return the calculated write and read waitstates for a possible access. See also snoop below for responsibilities when DMA writes are done via pointers from this function.
void (*snoop) (unsigned int addr)
The callback snoop is initialized by tsim. If data cache snooping is enabled (and functioning, i.e. not ut699) it flushes (i.e. invalidates) data cache lines corresponding to physical address addr (on LEON3/4 even when MMU is enabled). If the AHB module is doing DMA writes directly to memory pointers, it is the responsibility of the AHB module to call this for all changed words for snooping to work correctly.
struct io_interface *io;
Initialized with the I/O interface structure pointer.
void (*dprint)(char *);
Initialized by tsim with a callback pointer to the debug output function. Output ends up in log, when logging is enabled and gets forwarded to gdb when running TSIM via gdb. See lprintf and vlprintf for the formatted couterparts.
struct proc_interface *proc;
Initialized with the procif structure pointer.
int (*cacheable)(uint32 addr, uint32 size)
The cacheable callback is initialized by the module to NULL or a function returning cacheability for a memory area. The function should return 1 if the range [addr,addr+size) is cacheable, 0 if it is uncacheable or -1 if the memory area it is not handled by the module. If all modules return -1 and/or lack the cacheable callback, the area will be considered cacheable for memory areas [0x00000000,0x20000000) and [0x40000000-0x80000000) and non-cacheable for all other areas.
NOTE: For any (correspondingly aligned) area as large as the largest data cache or instruction cache
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 33 line size in the system, the cacheable callback may not return different results for different words in the area.
int (*lprintf)(const char *format, ...)
Initialized by TSIM with a function for formatted loggable debug output. The function interface works like for printf.
int (*vlprintf)(const char *format, va_list ap)
Initialized by TSIM with a function for formatted loggable debug output. The function interface works like for vprintf.
5.2.3. Big versus little endianess
SPARC conforms to the big endian byte ordering. This means that the most significant byte of a (half) word has lowest address. To execute efficiently on little-endian hosts (such as Intel x86 PCs), emulated memory is organised on word basis with the bytes within a word arranged according the endianess of the host. Read cycles can then be performed without any conversion since SPARC always reads a full 32-bit word. During byte and half word writes, care must be taken to insert the written data properly into the emulated memory.
On a byte-write to address 0, the written byte should be inserted at address 3, since this is the most significant byte according to little endian. Similarly, on a half-word write to bytes 0/1, bytes 2/3 should be written. For a complete example, see the prom emulation function in io.c.
5.3. TSIM/LEON co-processor emulation
5.3.1. FPU/CP interface
The professional version of TSIM/LEON can emulate a user-defined floating-point unit (FPU) and co-processor (CP). The FPU and CP are included into the simulator using loadable modules. To access the module, use the structure ‘cp_interface’ defined in io.h. The structure contains a number of functions and variables that must be provided by the emulated FPU/CP:
/* structure of function to be provided by an external co-processor */ struct cp_interface {
void (*cp_init)(); /* called once on start-up */
void (*cp_exit)(); /* called once on exit */
void (*cp_reset)(); /* calledon processor reset */
void (*cp_restart)(); /* called on simulator restart */
uint32 (*cp_reg)(int reg, uint32 data, int read);
int (*cp_load)(int reg, uint32 data, int *hold);
int (*cp_store)(int reg, uint32 *data, int *hold);
int (*cp_exec)(uint32 pc, uint32 inst, int *hold);
int (*cp_cc)(int *cc, int *hold); /* get condition codes */
int *cp_status; /* unit status */
void (*cp_print)(); /* print registers */
int (*command)(char * cmd); /* CP specific commands */
int set_fsr(uint32 fsr); /* initialized by tsim */
}; extern struct cp_interface *cp; /* imported co-processor emulation functions */
5.3.2. Structure elements void (*cp_init)(struct sim_interface sif, struct io_interface iif);
Called once on simulator startup. Set to NULL if not used.
void (*cp_exit)();
Called once on simulator exit. Set to NULL if not used.
void (*cp_reset)();
Called every time the processor is reset. Set to NULL if not used.
void (*cp_restart)();
Called every time the simulator is restarted. Set to NULL if not used.
uint32 (*cp_reg)(int reg, uint32 data, int read);
Used by the simulator to perform diagnostics read and write to the FPU/CP registers. Calling cp_reg() should not have any side-effects on the FPU/CP status. reg indicates which register to
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 34 access: 0-31 indicates %f0-%f31/%c0- %31, 34 indicates %fsr/%csr. read indicates read or write access: read==0 indicates write access, read!=0 indicates read access. Written data is passed in data , the return value contains the read value on read accesses.
int (*cp_exec)(uint32 pc, uint32 inst, int *hold);
Execute FPU/CP instruction. The %pc is passed in pc and the instruction opcode in inst . If data dependency is emulated, the number of stall cycles should be return in *hold . The return value should be zero if no trap occurred or the trap number if a trap did occur (0x8 for the FPU, 0x28 for CP). A trap can occur if the FPU/CP is in exception_pending mode when a new FPU/CP instruction is executed.
int (*cp_cc)(int *cc, int *hold); /* get condition codes */
Read condition codes. Used by FBCC/CBCC instructions. The condition codes (0 - 3) should be returned in *cc . If data dependency is emulated, the number of stall cycles should be return in *hold . The return value should be zero if no trap occurred or the trap number if a trap did occur (0x8 for the FPU,
0x28 for CP). A trap can occur if the FPU/CP is in exception_pending mode when a FBCC/CBCC instruction is executed.
int *cp_status;/* unit status */
Should contain the FPU/CP execution status: 0 = execute_mode, 1 = exception_pending, 2 = exception_mode.
void (*cp_print)();/* print registers */
Should print the FPU/CP registers to stdio.
int (*command)(char * cmd); /* CP specific commands */
User defined FPU/CP control commands. NOT YET IMPLEMENTED.
int (*set_fsr)(char * cmd); /* initialized by tsim */
This callback is initialized by tsim and can be called to set the FPU status register.
5.3.3. Attaching the FPU and CP
At startup the simulator tries to load two dynamic link libraries containing an external FPU or CP. The simulator looks for the file fp.so and cp.so in the current directory and in the search path defined by ldconfig.
The location of the modules can also be defined using -cpm and -fpm switches. The enviromental variable
TSIM_MODULE_PATH can be set to a ‘:’ separated (‘;’ in WIN32) list of search paths. Each library is searched for a pointer ‘cp’ that points to a cp_interface structure describing the co-processor. Below is an example from fp.c: struct cp_interface test_fpu = {
cp_init, /* cp_init */
NULL, /* cp_exit */
cp_init, /* cp_reset */
cp_init, /* cp_restart */
cp_reg, /* cp_reg */
cp_load, /* cp_load */
cp_store, /* cp_store */
fpmeiko, /* cp_exec */
cp_cc, /* cp_cc */
&fpregs.fpstate, /* cp_status */
cp_print, /* cp_print */
NULL /* cp_command */
}; struct cp_interface *cp = &test_fpu; /* Attach pointer!! */
5.3.4. Big versus little endianess
SPARC is conforms to the big-endian byte ordering. This means that the most significant byte of a (half) word has lowest address. To execute efficiently on little-endian hosts (such as Intel x86 PCs), emulated register-file is organised on word basis with the bytes within a word arranged according the endianess of the host. Double words are also in host order, and the read/write register functions must therefore invert the lsb of the register address when performing word access on little-endian hosts. See the file fp.c for examples
( cp_load() , cp_store() ).

5.3.6. Example FPU
The file fp.c contains a complete SPARC FPU using the co-processor interface. It can be used as a template for implementation of other co-processors. Note that data-dependency checking for correct timing is not implemented in this version (it is however implemented in the built-in version of TSIM).
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
6. TSIM library (TLIB)
36
6.1. Introduction
The professional version of TSIM is also available as a library, allowing the simulator to be integrated in a larger simulation frame-work. The various TSIM commands and options are accessible through a simple function interface. I/O functions can be added, and use a similar interface to the loadable I/O modules described earlier.
6.2. Function interface
The following functions are provided to access TSIM features: int tsim_init (char *option);/* initialise tsim with optional params. */
Initialize TSIM - must be called before any other TSIM function (except tsim_set_diag() ) are used. The options string can contain any valid TSIM startup option (as used for the standalone simulator), with the exception that no filenames for files to be loaded into memory may be given.
tsim_init() may only be called once, use the TSIM reset command to reset the simulator without exiting. tsim_init() will return 1 on success or 0 on failure.
int tsim_cmd (char *cmd);/* execute tsim command */
Execute TSIM command. Any valid TSIM command-line command may be given. The following return values are defined:
SIGINT
SIGHUP
SIGTRAP
SIGSEGV
SIGTERM
Simulation stopped due to interrupt
Simulation stopped normally
Simulation stopped due to breakpoint hit
Simulation stopped due to processor in error mode
Simulation stopped due to program termination void tsim_exit (int val);
Should be called to cleanup TSIM internal state before main program exits.
void tsim_get_regs (unsigned int *regs);
Get SPARC registers. regs is a pointer to an array of integers, see tsim.h for how the various registers are indexed.
void tsim_set_regs (unsigned int *regs);
Set SPARC registers. *regs is a pointer to an array of integers, see tsim.h for how the various registers are indexed.
void tsim_disas(unsigned int addr, int num);
Disassemble memory. addr indicates which address to disassemble, num indicates how many instructions.
void tsim_set_diag (void (*cfunc)(char *));
Set console output function. By default, TSIM writes all diagnostics and console messages on stdout.
tsim_set_diag() can be used to direct all output to a user defined routine. The user function is called with a single string parameter containing the message to be written.
void tsim_set_callback (void (*cfunc)(void));
Set the debug callback function. Calling tsim_set_callback() with a function pointer will cause
TSIM to call the callback function just before each executed instruction, when the history is enabled.
At this point the instruction to be executed can be seen as the last entry in the history. History can be enabled with the tsim_cmd() function.
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 37 void tsim_gdb (unsigned char (*inchar)(), void (*outchar)(unsigned char c));
Controls the simulator using the gdb ‘extended-remote’ protocol. The inchar parameter is a pointer to a function that when called, returns next character from the gdb link. The outchar parameter is a pointer to a function that sends one character to the gdb link.
void tsim_read(unsigned int addr, unsigned int *data);
Performs a read from addr , returning the value in *data . Only for diagnostic use.
void tsim_write(unsigned int addr, unsigned int data);
Performs a write to addr , with value data . Only for diagnostic use.
void tsim_stop_event(void (*cfunc)(), int arg, int op); tsim_stop_event() can remove certain event depending on the setting of arg and op . If op = 0, all instance of the callback function cfunc will be removed. If op = 1, events with the argument = arg will be removed. If op = 2, only the first (earliest) of the events with the argument = arg will be removed.
NOTE: The stop_event() function may NOT be called from a signal handler installed by the I/O module.
void tsim_inc_time(uint64); tsim_inc_time() will increment the simulator time without executing any instructions. The event queue is evaluated during the advancement of time and the event callbacks are properly called. Can not be called from event handlers.
int tsim_trap(int (*trap)(int tt), void (*rett)()); tsim_trap() is used to install callback functions that are called every time the processor takes a trap or returns from a trap (RETT instruction). The trap() function is called with one argument ( tt ) that contains the SPARC trap number. If tsim_trap() returns with 0, execution will continue. A non-zero return value will stop simulation with the program counter pointing to the instruction that will cause the trap. The rett() function is called when the program counter points to the RETT instruction but before the instruction is executed. The callbacks are removed by calling tsim_trap() with a
NULL arguments.
int tsim_cov_get(int start, int end, char *ptr); tsim_cov_get() will return the coverage data for the address range >= start and < end . The coverage data will be written to a char array pointed to by *ptr , starting at ptr[0]. One character per
32-bit word in the address range will be written. The user must assure that the char array is large enough to hold the coverage data.
int tsim_cov_set(int start, int end, char val); tsim_cov_set() will fill the coverage data in the address range limited by start and end (see above for definition) with the value of val .
int tsim_ext_ins (int (*func) (struct ins_interface *r)); tsim_ext_ins() installs a handler for custom instructions. func is a pointer to an instruction emu-
lation function as described in Section 4.1.6. Calling
tsim_ext_ins() with a NULL pointer will remove the handler.
int tsim_lastbp (int *addr)
When simulation stopped due to breakpoint or watchpoint hit (SIGTRAP), this function will return the address of the break/watchpoint in *addr . The function return value indicates the break cause; 0 = breakpoint, 1 = watchpoint.
6.3. AHB modules
AHB modules can be loaded by adding the “ -ahbm <name> ” switch to the tsim_init() string when
starting. See Section 5.2 for further information.
6.4. I/O interface
The TSIM library uses the same I/O interface as the standalone simulator. Instead of loading a shared library containing the I/O module, the I/O module is linked with the main program. The I/O functions (and the
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 38 main program) has the same access to the exported simulator interface (simif and ioif) as described in the loadable module interface. The TSIM library imports the I/O structure pointer, iosystem, which must be defined in the main program.
An example I/O module is provided in tlib/<platform>/io.c , which shows how to add a prom.
A second example I/O module is provided in simple_io.c This module provides a simpler interface to attach
I/O functions. The following interface is provided: void tsim_set_ioread (void (*cfunc)(int address, int *data, int *ws));
This function is used to pass a pointer to a user function which is to be called by TSIM when an I/O
read access is made. The user function is called with the address of the access, a pointer to where the read data should be returned, and a pointer to a waitstate variable that should be set to the number of waitstates that the access took.
void tsim_set_iowrite (void (*cfunc)(int address, int *data, int *ws, int size));
This function is used to pass a pointer to a user function which is to be called by TSIM when an I/O
write access is made. The user function is called with the address of the access, a pointer to the data to be written, a pointer to a waitstate variable that should be set to the number of waitstates that the access took, and the size of the access (0=byte, 1=half-word, 2=word, 3=double-word).
6.5. UART handling
By default, the library is using the same UART handling as the standalone simulator. This means that the
UARTs can be connected to the console, or any Unix device (pseudo-ttys, pipes, fifos). If the UARTs are to be handled by the user’s I/O emulation routines, >tsim_init() should be called with ‘ -nouart ’, which will disable all internal UART emulation. Any access to the UART register by an application will then be routed to the I/O module read/write functions.
6.6. Linking a TLIB application
Three sample application are provided, one that uses the simplified I/O interface (app1.c), and two that uses the standard loadable module interface (app2 and app3). They are built by doing a ‘make all’ in the tlib directory. The win32 version of TSIM provides the library as a DLL, for all other platform a static library is provided (.a). Support for dynamic libraries on Linux or Solaris is not available.
6.7. Limitations
On Windows/Cygwin hosts TSIM is not capable of reading UART A/B from the console, only writing is possible. If reading of UART A/B is necessary, the simulator should be started with -nouart, and emulation of the UARTs should be handled by the I/O module.

7. Cobham UT699/UT699e AHB module
7.1. Overview
This chapter describes the UT699 loadable AHB module for the TSIM2 simulator. The AHB module provides simulation models for the Ethernet, SpaceWire, PCI, GPIO and CAN cores in the UT699 processor.
For more information about this chip see the Cobham UT699 user manual.
The interfaces are modelled at packet/transaction/message level and provides an easy way to connect the simulated UT699 to a larger simulation framework.

7.2. Loading the module
The module is loaded using the TSIM2 option -ahbm . All core specific options described in the following sections need to be surrounded by the options -designinput and -designinputend , e.g:
On Linux: tsim-leon3 -ut699 -ahbm ./ut699/linux/ut699.so
-designinput ./ut699/examples/input/pci.so -designinputend
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
On Windows:
40 tsim-leon3 -ut699 -ahbm ut699/win32/ut699.dll
-designinput ./ut699/examples/input/pci.dll -designinputend
The option -ut699 needs to be given to TSIM to enable the UT699 processor configuration. Note that when -ut699 is given, snooping will be set as non-functional.
7.3. UT699e
To enable the UT699e version of the UT699 replace ut699.[so|dll] with ut699e.[so|dll] and option -ut699 with -ut699e . This:
• Enables snooping opposed to the non-functional snooping of the -ut699
• Sets UT699e build-id
• Changes MMU status/ctrl registers layout
• Contains GRSPW2 cores instead of GRSPW cores (the TSIM command, flag and packet interface is the same however)
7.4. Debugging
To enable printout of debug information the -ut699_dbgon flag switch can be used. Alternatively one can issue the ut699_dbgon flag command on the TSIM2 command line. The debug flags that are available are described for each core in the following sections and can be listed by ut699_dbgon help.
7.5. 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Media Access Controller interface
The Ethernet core simulation model is designed to functionally model the 10/100 Ethernet MAC available in the UT699. For core details and register specification please see the UT699 manual.
The following features are supported:
• Direct Memory Access
• Interrupts

7.5.4. Ethernet packet server
The simulation model relies on a packet server to receive and transmit the Ethernet packets. The packet server should open a TCP socket which the module can connect to. The Ethernet core is connected to a packet server using the -grethconnect start-up parameter or using the greth_connect command.
An example implementation of a packet server, named greth_config , is included in TSIM distribution.
It uses the TUN/TAP interface in Linux, or the WinPcap library on Windows, to connect the GRETH core to a physical Ethernet LAN. This makes it easy to connect the simulated GRETH core to real hardware. It can provide a throughput in the order of magnitude of 500 to 1000 KiB/sec. See its distributed README for usage instructions.
7.5.5. Ethernet packet server protocol
Ethernet data packets have the following format. Note that each packet is prepended with a one word length field indicating the length of the packet to come (including its header).

7.7. PCI initiator/target and GPIO interface
The UT699 AHB module models the GPIO and PCI core available in the UT699 ASIC. For core details and register specification please see the UT699 manual.
The GPIO/PCI emulation is implemented by a two stage model:
1. The TSIM AHB module ut699.dll implements the GPIO and PCI core itself
2. A user supplied dynamic library models the devices on the PCI bus and the GPIO pins.
To load a user supplied dynamic library use the following command line switch:
-designinput <pciexample> <switches> -designinputend
This will load a user supplied dynamic library “pciexample”. In addition the switches between -designinput and -designinputend are local switches only propagated to the user dynamic library “pciexample”.

PCI Commands pci_status
Print status for the PCI core

7.7.3. User supplied dynamic library
The user supplied dynamic library should expose a public symbol ut699inputsystem of type struct ut699_subsystem * . The struct ut699_subsystem is defined as:
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 46 struct ut699_subsystem {
void (*ut699_inp_setup) (int id, struct ut699_inp_layout *l,
char **argv, int argc);
void (*ut699_inp_restart) (int id, struct ut699_inp_layout *l);
struct sim_interface *simif;
};
At initialization the callback ut699_inp_setup will be called once, supplied with a pointer to a structure of type struct ut699_inp_layout .
struct ut699_inp_layout {
struct grpci_input grpci;
struct gpio_input gpio;
};
The callback ut699_inp_restart will be called every time the simulator restarts and the PCI user module can access the global TSIM struct sim_interface structure through the simif
for more details.
The user supplied dynamic library should claim the ut699_inp_layout.grpci
member of the structure by using the INPUT_CLAIM(l->grpci) macro (see the example below). A struct grpci_input
consists of callbacks that model the PCI bus (see Section 7.7.4).
A typical user supplied dynamic library would look like this:
#include "tsim.h"
#include "inputprovider.h" int pci_acc(struct grpci_input *ctrl, int cmd, unsigned int addr, unsigned int wsize,
unsigned int *data, unsigned int *abort, unsigned int *ws) {
... BUS access implementation ...
} static void ut699_inp_setup (int id, struct ut699_inp_layout *l, char **argv, int argc)
{
printf("Entered PCI setup\n");
if (INPUT_ISCLAIMED(l->grpci)) {
printf("module user for PCI already allocated \n");
return;
}
for(i = 0; i < argc; i++) {
... do argument processing ...
}
l->grpci.acc = pci_acc;
... do module setup ...
printf("ut699_inp_setup: Claiming %s\n", l->grpci._b.name);
INPUT_CLAIM(l->grpci);
return;
} static struct ut699_subsystem ut699_pci = {
ut699_inp_setup,0,0
}; struct ut699_subsystem *ut699inputsystem = &ut699_pci;
A typical Makefile that would create a user supplied dynamic library pci.(dll|so) from pci.c would look like this:
M_DLL_FIX = $(if $(strip $(shell uname | grep MINGW32)),dll,so)
M_LIB = $(if $(strip $(shell uname | grep MINGW32)),-lws2_32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -
lwinmm,) all:pci.$(M_DLL_FIX) pci.$(M_DLL_FIX) : pci.o
$(CC) -shared -g pci.o -o pci.$(M_DLL_FIX) $(M_LIB) pci.o: pci.c \ inputprovider.h
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
$(CC) -fPIC -c -g -O0 pci.c -o pci.o
clean:
-rm -f *.o *.so
47
7.7.4. PCI bus model API
The structure struct grpci_input models the PCI bus. It is defined as:
/* ut699 pci input provider */ struct grpci_input {
struct input_inp _b;
int (*acc)(struct grpci_input *ctrl, int cmd, unsigned int addr,
unsigned int *data, unsigned int *abort, unsigned int *ws);
int (*target_acc)(struct grpci_input *ctrl, int cmd, unsigned int addr,
unsigned int *data, unsigned int *mexc);
};
The acc callback should be set by the PCI user module at startup. It is called by the UT699 module whenever it reads/writes as a PCI bus master.
Table 7.6. acc callback parameters
Parameter cmd addr data wsize ws abort
Description
Command to execute, see Section 7.7.1 details
PCI address
Data buffer, fill for read commands, read for write commands
0: 8-bit access 1: 16-bit access, 2: 32-bit access, 3: 64-bit access. 64 bit is only used to model STD instructions to the GRPCI AHB slave
Number of PCI clocks it shall to complete the transaction
Set to 1 to generate target abort, 0 otherwise
The return value of acc determines if the transaction terminates successfully (1) or with master abort (0).
The callback target_acc is installed by the UT699 AHB module. The PCI user dynamic library can call this function to initiate an access to the UT699 PCI target.
Table 7.7. target_acc parameters
Parameter cmd addr data wsize mexc
Description
Command to execute, see Section 7.7.1 for details. I/O cycles are not
supported by the UT699 target.
PCI address
Data buffer, returned data for read commands, supply data for write commands
0: 8-bit access 1: 16-bit access, 2: 32-bit access
0 if access is successful, 1 in case of target abort
If the address matched MEMBAR0, MEMBAR1 or CONFIG target_acc will return 1 otherwise 0.
7.7.5. GPIO model API
The structure struct gpio_input models the GPIO pins. It is defined as:
/* GPIO input provider */ struct gpio_input {
struct input_inp _b;
int (*gpioout)(struct gpio_input *ctrl, unsigned int out);
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 48
int (*gpioin) (struct gpio_input *ctrl, unsigned int in);
};
The gpioout callback should be set by the user module at startup. The gpioin callback is set by the
U699 AHB module. The gpioout callback is called by the UT699 module whenever a GPIO output pin changes. The gpioin callback is called by the user module when the input pins should change. Typically the user module would register an event handler at a certain time offset and call gpioin from within the event handler.

8. Cobham UT700 AHB module
51
8.1. Overview
The UT700 AHB module is very similar to the UT699 AHB module described in the previous chapter.
The differences between the UT700 and the UT699 models is the added SPI model that is only present in the UT700 AHB module and that it has GRSPW2 cores instead of GRSPW cores and that the debug flag toggling command is ut700_dbgon,
For information on the CAN, Spacewire, PCI and GPIO interfaces of the UT700 module, see the UT699
documentation in Chapter 7. The TSIM command, flag and packet interface is the same for both GRSPW
and GRSPW2.
The following files are delivered with the UT700 TSIM module:

9.2. Loading the module
The module is loaded using the TSIM2 option -ahbm . All core specific options described in the following sections need to be surrounded by the options -designinput and -designinputend , e.g:
On Linux: tsim-leon -gr712rc -ahbm ./gr712/linux/gr712.so
-designinput ./gr712/examples/input/spi.so -designinputend
On Windows: tsim-leon -gr712rc -ahbm ./gr712/win32/gr712.dll
-designinput ./gr712/examples/input/spi.dll -designinputend
The option -gr712rc needs to be given to TSIM to enable the GR712 processor configuration. The above line loads the GR712 AHB module ./gr712.so which in turn loads the SPI user module ./spi.so.
The SPI user module ./spi.so communicates with ./gr712.so using the user module interface described in gr712inputprovider.h,, while ./gr712.so communicates with TSIM via the AHB interface.
9.3. Debugging
To enable printout of debug information the -gr712_dbgon flag switch can be used. Alternatively one can issue the gr712_dbgon flag command on the TSIM2 command line. The debug flags that are available are described for each core in the following sections and can be listed by gr712_dbgon help.
9.4. CAN interface
The GR712 AHB module contains 2 CAN_OC cores which models the CAN_OC cores available in the
GR712. For core details and register specification please see the GR712 manual.
9.4.1. Start up options

9.5.4. Ethernet packet server
The simulation model relies on a packet server to receive and transmit the Ethernet packets. The packet server should open a TCP socket which the module can connect to. The Ethernet core is connected to a packet server using the -grethconnect start-up parameter or using the greth_connect command.
An example implementation of a packet server, named greth_config , is included in TSIM distribution.
It uses the TUN/TAP interface in Linux, or the WinPcap library on Windows, to connect the GRETH core to a physical Ethernet LAN. This makes it easy to connect the simulated GRETH core to real hardware. It can provide a throughput in the order of magnitude of 500 to 1000 KiB/sec. See its distributed README for usage instructions.
9.5.5. Ethernet packet server protocol
Ethernet data packets have the following format. Note that each packet is prepended with a one word length field indicating the length of the packet to come (including its header).

9.7. SPI and GPIO user modules
The user supplied dynamic library should expose a public symbol gr712inputsystem of type struct gr712_subsystem * . The struct gr712_subsystem is defined in gr712inputprovider.h as: struct gr712_subsystem {
void (*gr712_inp_setup) (int id,
struct gr712_inp_layout * l,
char **argv, int argc);
void (*gr712_inp_restart) (int id,
struct gr712_inp_layout * l);
struct sim_interface *simif;
};
The callback gr712_inp_restart will be called every time the simulator restarts. At initialization the callback gr712_inp_setup will be called once, supplied with a pointer to structure struct gr712_inp_layout
defined in gr712inputprovider.h (see Section 9.7.1 and Section 9.7.2 for details):
struct gr712_inp_layout {
struct gpio_input gpio[2];
struct spi_input spi;
};
The user module can access the global TSIM struct sim_interface structure through the simif
member. See Chapter 5 for more details.
The user supplied dynamic library should claim the gr712_inp_layout.gpio or gr712_inp_layout. spi members by using the INPUT_CLAIM macro, i.e. INPUT_CLAIM(l->gpio) (see the example below).
A typical user supplied dynamic library would look like this:
/* simple gpio user module that toggles all input bits */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "tsim.h"
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 62
#include "gr712inputprovider.h" extern struct gr712_subsystem *gr712inputsystem; static struct gr712_inp_layout *lay = 0; static void Change(struct gpio_input *ctrl) {
...
} int gpioout(struct gpio_input *ctrl, unsigned int out) {
...
} static void gr712_inp_setup (int id,
struct gr712_inp_layout * l,
char **argv, int argc) {
lay = l;
printf("User-dll: gr712_inp_setup:Claiming %s\n", l->gpio[0]._b.name);
INPUT_CLAIM(l->gpio[0]);
l->gpio[0].gpioout = gpioout;
gr712inputsystem->simif->event(Change,(unsigned long)&l->gpio[0],10000000);
} static struct gr712_subsystem gr712_gpio = {
gr712_inp_setup,0,0
}; struct gr712_subsystem *gr712inputsystem = &gr712_gpio;
A typical Makefile that would create a user supplied dynamic library gpio.(dll|so) would look like this:
M_DLL_FIX=$(if $(strip $(shell uname|grep MINGW32)),dll,so)
M_LIB=$(if $(strip $(shell uname|grep MINGW32)),-lws2_32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -lwinmm,)
all:gpio.$(M_DLL_FIX)
pci.$(M_DLL_FIX) : gpio.o
$(CC) -shared -g gpio.o -o gpio.$(M_DLL_FIX) $(M_LIB)
gpio.o: gpio.c
$(CC) -fPIC -c -g -O0 gpio.c -o gpio.o
clean:
-rm -f *.o *.so
The user can then specify the user module to be loaded by the gr712.so AHB module using the -designinput and -designinputend command line options:
-designinput ./gr712/examples/input/gpio.so -designinputend
These switches are interpreted by gr712.so.
9.7.1. SPI bus model API
The structure struct spi_input models the SPI bus. It is defined as:
/* Spi input provider */ struct spi_input {
struct input_inp _b;
int (*spishift)(struct spi_input *ctrl, uint32 select, uint32 bitcnt,
uint32 out, uint32 *in);
};
The spishift callback should be set by the SPI user module at startup. It is called by the GR712 module whenever it shifts a word through the SPI bus.
Table 9.7. spishift callback parameters
Parameter select bitcnt out
Description
Slave select bits (in case of GR712 these should be ignored and GPIO used instead)
Number of bits set in the MODE register, if bitcnt is -1 then the operation is not a shift and the call is to indicate a select change, i.e. if the core is disabled.
Shift out (tx) data
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual
Parameter in
Description
Shift in (rx) data
63
The return value of spishift is ignored.
9.7.2. GPIO model API
The structure struct gpio_input models the GPIO pins. It is defined as:
/* GPIO input provider */ struct gpio_input {
struct input_inp _b;
int (*gpioout)(struct gpio_input *ctrl, unsigned int out);
int (*gpioin) (struct gpio_input *ctrl, unsigned int in);
};
The gpioout callback should be set by the user module at startup. The gpioin callback is set by the GR712
AHB module. The gpioout callback is called by the GR712 module whenever a GPIO output pin changes.
The gpioin callback is called by the user module when the input pins should change. Typically the user module would register an event handler at a certain time offset and call gpioin from within the event handler.

Parameter out
Description
The values of the output pins
Table 9.9. gpioin callback parameters
Parameter in
Description
The input pin values
The return value of gpioin/gpioout is ignored.
9.8. UART interfaces
The GR712 module adds five extra UARTS in addition to the one built in UART (the second built in UART is is disabled by the -gr712rc option). The extra UARTS are numbered 2 through 6.
9.8.1. Start up options
-uartX device
Works like the ordinary -uartX device option but for X in the range 2-6, with the extra possibility
to set the UART to use stdin and stdout by using -uartX stdio .
9.8.2. Commands
uartX_connect device
Has the same effect as -uartX device above but can as a command.
uartX_status
Shows the status of the UART.
uartX_dbg < flag | list | help | clean >
Toggle, show, disable or show help for debug options for the given UART.
X in the above commands is in the range 2-6.

10. Atmel AT697 PCI emulation
64
10.1. Overview
The PCI emulation is implemented as a AT697 AHB module that will process all accesses to memory region
0xa0000000 - 0xf0000000 (AHB slave mode) and the APB registers starting at 0x80000100. The AT697
AHB module implements all registers of the PCI core. It will in turn load the PCI user modules that will implement the devices. The AT697 AHB module is supposed to be the PCI host. Both PCI Initiator and
PCI Target mode are supported. The interface to the PCI user modules is implemented on bus level. Two callbacks model the PCI bus.
The following files are delivered with the AT697 TSIM module:

10.2. Loading the module
The module is loaded using the TSIM2 option -ahbm . All core specific options described in the following sections need to be surrounded by the options -designinput and -designinputend , e.g:
On Linux: tsim-leon -ahbm ./at697/linux/at697.so
-designinput ./at697/examples/input/pci.so -designinputend
On Windows: tsim-leon -ahbm ./at697/win32/at697.dll
-designinput ./at697/examples/input/pci.dll -designinputend
This loads the AT697 AHB module ./at697.so which in turn loads the PCI user module ./pci.so. The PCI user module ./pci.so communicates with ./at697.so using the PCI user module interface, while ./at697.so
communicates with TSIM via the AHB interface.
10.3. AT697 initiator mode
The PCI user module should supply one callback function acc() . The AT697 AHB module will call this function to emulate AHB slave mode accesses or DMA accesses that are forwarded via acc() . The cmd
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 65 parameter determines which command to use. Configuration cycles have to be handled by the PCI user module.
10.4. AT697 target mode
The AT697 AHB module supplies one callback target_acc() to the PCI user modules to implement target mode accesses from the PCI bus to the AHB bus. The PCI user module should trigger access events itself by inserting itself into the event queue.

This function should be set by the PCI user module: int (*acc)(struct esa_pci_input *ctrl, int cmd, unsigned int addr, unsigned int *data,
unsigned int *abort, unsigned int *ws);
If set, the function is called by the AT697 AHB module whenever the PCI interface initiates a transaction.
The function is called for AHB-slave mapped accesses as well as AHB-Master/APB DMA.The parameter cmd
specifies the command to execute, see Section 10.5.1. Parameter
addr specifies the address. The user module should return the read data in *data for a read command or write the *data on a write command and return the time to completion in *ws as PCI clocks. A possible target abort should be returned in *abort . The return value should be: 0: taken, 1: not taken (master abort)
10.7. Read/write function installed by AT697 module
The following function is installed by the AT697 AHB module: int (*target_acc)(struct esa_pci_input *ctrl, int cmd, unsigned int addr, unsigned int
*data, unsigned int *mexc);
The PCI user module can call this function to emulate a PCI target mode access to the AT697 AHB module.
Parameter cmd
specifies the command to execute, see Section 10.5.1. The AT697 module is supposed to
TSIM2 Simulator User's Manual 66 be the host and accesses to the configuration space is not supported. Parameter addr specifies the address.
Parameter *data should point to a memory location where to return the read data on a read command or point to the write data on a write command. Parameter *mexc should point to a memory location where to return a possible error. If the call was hit by MEMBAR0, MEMBAR1 or IOBAR, target_read() will return 1 otherwise 0.
