Debugging

There are some debugging aids built in to x-Sim . If you type

xsim -h

x-Sim will print the following help documentation:

Help for debugging xsim:

  xsim  -xsimdbg  E:<Event codes>  S:<Simulator codes>  T:<Test codes>

    where code strings are 2-letter, event specific codes

         Event codes:
           IQ  show event queue inserts
           RQ  show event queue removals
           SE  show stub executions
           ES  show evSchedule calls
           CI  show clock interupt handler execution
           SQ  show full queue in IQ and RQ
           FN  use function names when listing
           AL  equivalent to all Event codes

         Simulator codes:
           ED  show ethd stuff
           L0  show very detailed simulator stuff
           L1  show detailed simulator stuff
           L2  show coarse simulator stuff
           PC  show packet collision stuff
           AL  equivalent to all Simulator codes

         Test codes:
           ET  show ethtest stuff
           MG  show megtest stuff
           TR  show traffic stuff
           AL  equivalent to all Test codes

 Examples:     xsim -xsimdbg E:ESCIFN S:AL T:MG
           or  xsim -xsimdbg E:ES,CI,FN S:AL T:MG
