Semihosting in Caches

[AwaisYousaf]

Dear Sir,

In the examples provided in CpuManager Guide (transparentMMC, fullMMC,cascadedTransparentMMC):

const char *semihosting = icmGetVlnvString(vlnvRoot,"ovpworld.org","semihosting","or1kNewlib","1.0","model");

If third and fourth arguments are replaced as:

const char *semihosting = icmGetVlnvString(vlnvRoot,"ovpworld.org","modelSupport","imperasExit","1.0","model");

Why does simulation halt during execution?

Thanks,
Awais Yousaf

Please have a look at Section 6.3.1 "Elegant Test Termination using Semihosting" in the document OVP_Processor_Modeling_Guide.pdf
