[ixp1200] IXP-SA simulator

[Heaton, Eric D]

Raj,

There is no new simulator for the SA Core from Intel.. and as far as I know
there are no plans to create one.  THe Developer's Workbench has always come
with a cycle accurate simulator for the Core (in addtion to the Microengine
simulator -Transactor), but practically, it is way too slow and hence, is
turned off by default.. look at the "Configuration" tab under
"Simulation->Options.." in the Workbench to enable the model and specify the
SA image to run.

Alternatively there are other simulators which you may find useful in your
development, like the ARMulator, however, these tools are totally separate
from the IXA SDK and Intel.

hello all: I might be completely misinformed but I remember some news items
/ talk a little while back about the availability of a IXP1200 StrongArm
simulator different from the ucode simulators with the IXP1200 SDK.

Any pointers will be appreciated.
