2.2 addon-manager

SYNOPSIS

addon-manager [options] [-u path] [-s path] [-d path]

DESCRIPTION

Configure Simics add-on packages to work with the Simics installation. When run without any option, this script will list the current add-on packages configuration. If any package listed is invalid (for example, if the package has been deleted), the script will propose to update the configuration to remove the invalid packages.

OPTIONS

-b, --batch

The script will act according to the command-line arguments without asking any questions.

-c, --create-empty

Create an empty package list in the project. This will cause the project to ignore any package associations of the main Simics installation. Only valid when operating on a project or together with the -f parameter.

-C, --copy-from-simics-base

Create a new package list in a project, by copying the package list from the main Simics installation. Only valid when operating on a project or together with the -f parameter. Roughly equivalent to -u simics_dir.

-d, --deselect PATH

Remove the package in PATH from the add-on package list. Note that listed packages that do not exist anymore will be removed automatically whenever this script runs.

-f, --package-list

Specify the file containing the package list. This is an alternative to the default (storing the list in the main Simics installation) or running addon-manager in a project.

-s, --select PATH

Add the package in PATH to the add-on package list.

-u, --upgrade [PATH|FILE]

Re-use the add-on package list found as FILE or present in PATH. The current list is backed-up as with a .backup extension.

-v, --version

Print the version of the script and the major version of Simics that it can be used with.

-p, --project PATH

Handle the package associations of the project path instead of the base package. This can also be done by running the addon-manager script located in path/bin.
