run-cycles

Synopsis

run-cycles [count]

Description

Starts or continues executing cycles. If a count argument is provided, Simics will execute count number of cycles on the currently selected frontend processor and then stop. Running count cycles may or may not be equivalent to running count instructions depending on the processor configuration.

Unlike other commands, the run and run-cycles commands will not block the command line when run interactively.

In script branches, the command will not block the script execution when run without the count argument. It will instead continue executing the next command as soon as the simulation has been started. When run with the count argument, the command will block until reaching the specified point in time.
