Every SID component has an associate text file that documents the component according to a standard template. The template is meant to include enough information for you to use the component in a simulation run. It includes a basic functional description and detailed low-level configuration information.
The component documentation does not attempt to describe an application programmer's view of a hardware-oriented component, so it is not a programming manual. You should refer to the hardware manufacturer's data books for this kind of information.
To search for and display installed component documentation files that match a given substring, use the siddoc command.
Usage:
siddoc [-l] name ... |
where
is a substring of the desired component type name
specifies that you only want matching component types to be listed, instead of the actual documentation. Without -l, each matching documentation file will be displayed on the screen by running the more program.The default more may be overridden by setting the PAGER environment variable.
Examples:
will show hw-cpu-arm7t hw-cpu-m32r/d and any other CPU-type components that have documentation files.
will display the documentation files of both hw-memory-flash-* components, then the hw-uart-* components.
