This file documents how to build and install simulavr on a unix-like system
|
|
using the provided configure script.
|
|
|
|
Although it is not required, you should have already built and installed
|
|
binutils for avr, avr-gcc, uisp and possibly avr-gdb. In order to build and
|
|
use the test programs in test_asm/ and test_c/ directories, you must have
|
|
avr gcc and avr binutils properly installed and in your PATH. If you don't
|
|
have them installed, you should pass configure the "--disable-tests" option.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use simulavr as a backend to gdb, see the README.gdb file in
|
|
the simulavr source.
|
|
|
|
To build simulavr, run this command in the top level directory:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
|
|
This will configure simulavr to be installed in the default "/usr/local/"
|
|
location. If you wish to install it in another location, use the
|
|
"--prefix=<dir>" option to configure. It is posible to install in your home
|
|
directory if you don't have root access to the "/usr/local/". For instance, I
|
|
like to install software like this:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local/simulavr
|
|
|
|
In this case, if you think that simulavr is crappy software, you can easily
|
|
remove it by removing the "$HOME/local/simulavr" directory. If you wish to
|
|
keep it, you might need to add "$HOME/local/simulavr/bin" to your PATH
|
|
environment variable so that you can run it by just typing `simulavr` instead
|
|
of the full path. Theoretically, you should be able to uninstall the installed
|
|
files using the 'make uninstall' command.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to include more agressive build optimizations, do this:
|
|
|
|
$ my_CFLAGS='-g -O2 -Wall -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions \
|
|
> -march=i686 -mcpu=i686"
|
|
$ CFLAGS=$my_CFLAGS ./configure
|
|
|
|
I have seen significant speedups using the above optimizations on my Pentium
|
|
Pro development system. You may have better luck with other CFLAGS values. See
|
|
`man gcc` for other compiler flags. Of course, if you aren't using gcc, your
|
|
CFLAGS choices may be quite different.
|
|
|
|
Once you have run the configure script, you can build and install the
|
|
simulator.
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
If the build fails while trying to build the programs in the test_c directory
|
|
complaining about not being able to find the avr libc header files, you will
|
|
have to tell the build system where those files are located. This is done by
|
|
passing an option to configure:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --with-avr-include=<your path to avr include files>
|
|
|
|
To view all the available configure options, use the "--help" configure
|
|
option:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --help
|
|
|
|
If you wish to verify that your build of the simulator works, run the
|
|
regression tests like this:
|
|
|
|
$ make check
|
|
|
|
This will automatically build simulavr if needed. The regression test engine
|
|
automatically starts up an instance of simulavr to run the tests. If any test
|
|
fails, I want to hear about it, so send me an email.
