This document likely reproduces some information found in the simulator's documentation for Xenomai, which is itself somehow a copy of the documentation found in the original simulator called "CarbonKernel" (www.gna.org/projects/carbonkernel/), which does provide these functionalities, but for a different simulation system. The CarbonKernel simulator has been adapted to use the Xenomai real-time core instead of its own RTOS simulation models written in C++, so that its event-driven engine could be used as a virtual hw architecture for running the Xenomai nucleus in a simulation environment. However, due to lack of time, a few bits have not been ported from CarbonKernel to the Xenomai simulator, including the syscall tracer and some Tcl snippets that present a graphical interface for manipulating the active RTOS objects while the simulation is running. The core support for these features is already available in the Xenomai simulator codebase since it's part of the event-driven simulation core, but the outer interfaces have not been plugged in. -- Philippe.
