'master' version conforms to specification changes up to 3 June 2020 and is regularly updated to track the evolving specification.) - RISCV Extension B (Bit Manipulation) - Run command: riscvOVPsim.exe --override riscvOVPsim/cpu/add_Extensions=B --showoverrides - When B extension is active, parameter 'bitmanip_version' can be used to specify the required version. About riscvOVPsim --- The **riscvOVPsim** simulator implements the full and complete functionality of the RISC-V Foundation's public User and Privilege specifications. The simulator is command line configurable to enable/disable all current optional and processor specific options. The simulator is developed, licensed and maintained by [Imperas Software](http://www.imperas.com/riscv) and it is fully compliant to the OVP open standard APIs. As a member of the RISC-V Foundation community of software and hardware innovators collaboratively driving RISC-V adoption, Imperas has developed the riscvOVPsim simulator to assist RISC-V adopters to become compliant to the RISC-V specifications. The latest RISC-V compliance test suite and framework can be downloaded from https://www.github.com/riscv/riscv-compliance . riscvOVPsim includes an industrial quality model and simulator of RISC-V processors for use for compliance and test development. It has been developed for personal, academic, or commercial use, and the model is provided as open source under the Apache 2.0 license. The simulator is provided under the Open Virtual Platforms (OVP) Fixed Platform Kits license that enables download and usage. riscvOVPsim and Imperas RISC-V support is actively maintained and enhanced. To ensure you make use of the current version of riscvOVPsim this initial release will expire. Please download the latest version. Runtime configurable settings for all RISC-V specification options makes it very easy to compare run time results with any RTL implementations. Full commercial features including variant selection, comprehensive trace, GDB/Eclipse graphical source code debug, semihosting, and RISC-V foundation signature dump facility for compliance testing. More information: [riscvOVPsim user guide](doc/riscvOVPsim_User_Guide.pdf) Model Source: [source](source) Examples: [examples](examples) ![](riscvOVPsim.jpg) riscvOVPsim is a fixed function simulation of one configurable processor model in a fixed platform. Full extendable platform simulations of reference designs booting FreeRTOS, Linux, SMP Linux etc. are available as open source and are available from [www.IMPERAS.com](http://www.imperas.com), [www.OVPworld.org](http://www.OVPworld.org). Debugging using GDB / Eclipse --- The same fixed platform can be used to debug the application using GDB and Eclipse. For GDB debug add the command line argument _-gdbconsole_, this will start the GDB debugger and connect to the virtual platform. For Eclipse debug, using CDT, a configuration to attach to an external remote application for debug should be made. The port to attach to is opened on the running virtual platform by adding the command line argument _-port _ when starting the virtual platform. Please see the [riscvOVPsim user guide](doc/riscvOVPsim_User_Guide.pdf) for full details. Using riscvOVPsim --- To use the simulator, just download the files, go into one of the example directories, and execute the provided run scripts.
