Attribute List
address_width
Pseudo class attribute; read-only access; type: unknown type.

(phys-bits, virt-bits) Number of bits in physical and virtual addresses.

aprof_views
Session attribute; read/write access; type: [[o,i]*].

((address profiler, view)*) Address profiler views selected for this processor. Affects only the display of profiling information, and has nothing to do with collecting it.

This attribute should contain a list of lists: one list for each address profiler view you want to select (in the order they are to appear), each containing first the address profiler object, then the index of the desired view.

architecture
Pseudo class attribute; read-only access; type: unknown type.

Implemented architecture (msp430)

big_endian
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; type: b.

This attribute is TRUE if the processor uses big-endian byte order and FALSE if it uses little-endian.

branch_prof_support
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; type: b.

True if this processor supports branch profiling in -stall mode, false otherwise.

cpu_group
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Object or Nil.

The group that this processor belongs to. A cpu group is a collection if cpus that may share memory and/or send interrupts between them. The group must implement the "cpu_group"interface.

current_context
Session attribute; read/write access; type: Object.

Current context object.

cycle_fractions
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Modeling parameter related to processor scheduling.

cycles
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Time measured in cycles from machine start.

do_reissue
Session attribute; write-only access; type: Integer.

Obsolete attribute that was used to keep information about the current memory transaction if is_stalling is set.

enabled_flag
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: b.

TRUE if the processor is enabled. If FALSE, it will see time (cycles) pass but not execute steps.

environment
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Object.

Object representing the environment

event_desc
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; ; integer indexed; indexed type: [[o|n,s,i]*].

((object, description, time)*). All events in queue with a human-readable description. The attribute is indexed by queue (Sim_Queue_Step/Time).

freq_mhz
Required attribute; read/write access; type: i|f.

Processor clock frequency in MHz.

gprs
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: [i{16}]; integer indexed; indexed type: Integer.

(pc, sp, sr, cg2, r4, ..., r15) General purpose registers

instruction_fetch_line_size
Session attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Instruction fetch line size for this processor.

instruction_fetch_mode
Session attribute; read/write access; type: String.

Instruction fetch mode

interrupt_lines
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: [i{16}].

Not for manual use

interrupt_sources
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: [o|n{16}].

Interrupt sources

is_stalling
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: b.

TRUE if the processor is currently stalling by request of a timing-model.

lock_granularity
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Lock granularity of atomic instructions

lower_interrupt
Pseudo attribute; write-only access; type: Integer.

Lower interrupt

lsq_enabled
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

When non-zero, the internal load/store queue is enabled. Only applicable if ooo-mode is "micro-architecture"

mai_debug
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: String.

(internal) Set debug file for MAI

memory_profilers
Session attribute; read/write access; type: [o|n*]; integer indexed; indexed type: Object or Nil.

Memory read/write profilers.

memory_profiling_granularity_log2
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; type: Integer.

Base 2 logarithm of memory profiling granularity.

min_cacheline_size
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; type: Integer.

The minimum size (in bytes) of a cache line that can be represented by Simics (when connecting a cache memhier).

mode_counters
Pseudo attribute; read-only access; type: [[sii]*].

((name, user-value, supervisor-value), ...) List of per-mode counters.

ooo_mode
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: String.

"in-order" or "micro-architecture".

pc
Pseudo attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Program counter

pending_interrupts
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

Not for manual use

physical_memory
Required attribute; read/write access; type: Object.

Physical memory space. Must implement both the memory-space and the breakpoint interface.

processor_number
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: Integer.

stalling_info
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: [iii].

If is_stalling is set, this contains information about the current memory operation.

step_per_cycle_mode
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: String.

"constant" indicates a constant finite step/cycle factor; "infinite" means that steps are run without advancing time.

step_queue
Optional attribute; read/write access; type: [[o|n,a,s,i]*].

((object, value, slot, step)*). Pending step queue events. object must implement the event_poster interface.

step_rate
