+The sim pseudo board emulation provides an environment similiar

+
+The following options are specific to the Xtensa emulation:
+
+@table @option
+
+@item -semihosting
+Enable semihosting syscall emulation.
+
+Xtensa semihosting provides basic file IO calls, such as open/read/write/seek/select.
+Tensilica baremetal libc for ISS and linux platform "sim" use this interface.
+
+Note that this allows guest direct access to the host filesystem,
+so should only be used with trusted guest OS.
