4.14 ARMulator configuration files
This section contains the following subsections:
• Predefined tags on page 4-64
• Processors on page 4-64
• Changing the cache or TCM size of a synthesizable processor on page 4-66.
ARMulator configuration files (
.ami files) are ToolConf files. See ToolConf on
page 4-68.
Depending on your system, these are located in one of:
•
install_directory\Bin
• install_directory/linux/bin
• install_directory/solaris/bin
• install_directory/hpux/bin .
You can make copies of
.ami files, and edit them. Make a suitable directory for your new
.ami files, and add its path to the ARMCONF environment variable. Ensure that your
directory appears before the
bin directory in ARMCONF .
By default, there are the following
.ami files, all in the Bin directory:
•
bustypes.ami
• default.ami
• example1.ami
• peripherals.ami
• processors.ami
• vfp.ami
ARMulator loads all .ami files it finds on any of the paths it finds in the environment
variable
ARMCONF . This is initially set up to point to install_directory\Bin or
install_directory/arch/bin .
If a configuration is specified differently in two files, the first specification is used. If
there are several directories in
ARMCONF , ARMulator loads .ami files from directories in
the order that they appear in the list. ARMulator loads
.ami files from within each
directory in an unpredictable order.
