What motivated PSIM?
|
|

As an idea, psim was first discussed seriously during mid

1994. At that time its main objectives were:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
o good performance
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Many simulators loose out by only providing
|
|
||||||
a binary interface to the internals. This
|
|
||||||
inteface eventually becomming a bottle neck
|
|
||||||
in the simulators performance.
|
|

|
|

It was intended that PSIM would avoid this
|
|
||||||
problem by giving the user access to the
|
|
||||||
full source code.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Further, by exploiting the power of modern
|
|
||||||
compilers it was hoped that PSIM would achieve
|
|
||||||
good performance with out having to compromize
|
|
||||||
its internal design.

o practical portability

Rather than try to be portable to every

that PSIM would restrict its self to suporting

|

It was intended that PSIM would avoid this

|

that PSIM would restrict its self to suporting

|

|
|
||||||

|

|
|

|

A model that allowed the simulation of

SMP platforms with out the large overhead
|

often encountered with such models.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PSIM achieves each of these objectives.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Is PSIM PowerPC Platform (PPCP) (nee CHRP) Compliant?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
No.
|
No.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
However, PSIM does include all the hooks that are needed to
|
Among other things it does not have an Apple ROM socket.
|
||||||
construct a model of a CHRP compliant platform.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That is:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
o OpenBoot client software
|
Can PSIM be configured so that it models a CHRP machine?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
o OpenPIC interrupt controller
|
Yes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
o Hooks to implement a RTAS interface
|
PSIM has been designed with the CHRP spec in mind. To model
|
||||||
|
a CHRP desktop a user would need to add the following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
o the ability to add a model of each of the
|
o An apple rom socket :-)
|
||||||
hardware devices required by a CHRP compliant
|
|
||||||
desktop.
|
o Model of each of the desktop IO devices
|
||||||
|
(some may already be implemented).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
o An OpenPIC (Open Programmable Interrupt
|
||||||
|
Controller) device. (it may by now be
|
||||||
|
implemented).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
o RTAS (Run Time Abstraction Services).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
o A fully populated device tree.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Is the source code available?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Yes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The source code to PSIM is available under the terms of
|
||||||
|
the GNU Public Licence. This allows you to distribute

the source code for free but with certain conditions.

In addition, I'm slowly building up a set of useful patches

command to be used when connecting to a

simulator.
