Command-line Interface

Ripes v.2.2.5 adds support for a command line interface. Through this, programs can be assembled/compiled and simulated on any of the available processor models.

An example execution could be:

./Ripes 
  --mode cli            \ # Enable command line interface
  --src foo.s           \ # Input file
  -t asm                \ # Input file type
  --proc "RV32_5S"      \ # Processor model
  --isaexts M,C         \ # ISA extensions to enable in the assembler/processor  
  --ipc                 \ # show IPC
  --cycles              \ # show # of cycles executed
  --pipeline              # Show pipeline state during execution

Options

See ./Ripes --help for further information.
