Hi there

I'm trying to design a virtual system on chip platform to do post-silicon verification, to do that, I need to monitor the signal trace and analyse it. I just started using this software, so I'm not sure if it can monitor the messages sent between IP blocks and if the protocol of the virtual platform is visible for me.

Currently I'm trying to create a model with 2 arm cores, with its own full caches, connected by bus to another shared memory. I already tried soclib and ovp and qemu is my last hope, please help, any advice will be nice.

QEMU emulates functional behavior, it is not a simulator.  For example,
it doesn't model the CPU cache or timings.

Maybe take a look at gem5? http://gem5.org/Main_Page
