Description Anthony Green 2002-03-18 21:58:01 UTC 
[Converted from Gnats 433]

xscale-elf-gdb's "target sim" command should accept command 
line args, just like xscale-elf-run.  So, for instance,
"target sim -m 8000000" should work just like "xscale-elf-run
-m 8000000".  The documentation suggests that this is the
case.

Release:
latest trunk sources

Environment:
Red Hat Linux 7.2 host

How-To-Repeat:
Build and debug an xscale-elf executable and try "target sim -m
 -m 8000000".  A good hint that this worked is that your
stack will live in a completely different spot then before the
"-m" option was used.

Comment 2 Mike Frysinger 2011-11-06 07:15:29 UTC 
the arm sim needs quite a bit of updating to the common infrastructure
Comment 3 Mike Frysinger 2015-03-30 17:16:00 UTC 
should be fixed now with the conversion to nrun in the latest tree
