.TH SIMAVR "1" "April 2018" "AVR simulator" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
simavr \- lean and mean AVR simulator
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B simavr
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIFILE\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Execute AVR firmware, produce VCD waveform files and/or run a debugging
session. Specify simulation parameters directly in the emulated code using .elf
section or by passing command line arguments.
.PP
For more complex virtual circuitry prototyping and simulation see AVR simulator
development examples and documentation.
.SH OPTIONS
FILE is an elf or ihex formatted executable firmware, assuming filename
extension .hex for ihex files.
.TP
\fB\-\-list-cores\fR
List all supported AVR cores and exit
.TP
\fB\-m\fR CORE, \fB\-\-mcu\fR CORE
Run simulation on CORE
.TP
\fB\-f\fR FREQ, \fB\-\-freq\fR FREQ
Set core speed in HZ
.TP
\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-trace\fR
Run full scale decoder trace
.TP
\fB\-ti\fR VECTOR
Add traces for IRQ vector
.TP
\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-gdb\fR
Listen for gdb connection on port 1234
.TP
\fB\-ff\fR
Load next .hex file as flash
.TP
\fB\-ee\fR
Load next .hex file as eeprom
.TP
\fB\-i\fR INPUT, \fB\-\-input\fR INPUT
Read input signals from a .vcd file
.TP
\fB\-v\fR
Raise verbosity level (can be passed more than once)
.TP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
Display usage message and exit
.SH EXAMPLES
AVR GDB DEBUGGING
.PP
Run the AVR firmware simulation:
.IP
simavr \fB\-g \-m\fR atmega328p \fB\-f\fR 16000000 firmware.elf
.PP
start avr-gdb and optionally enable tui for better source code readability:
.IP
avr-gdb
(gdb) tui enable
.PP
load the elf formatted firmware and connect to the running simulation:
.IP
(gdb) file firmware.elf
(gdb) target remote :1234
.PP
set a break point and go ahead, debug:
.IP
(gdb) break main
(gdb) continue
(gdb) next
(gdb) next
