SPIM Resources



The SPIM software is available from the University of Wisconsin at Madison ftp server. Here are some instructions on where to find SPIM SAL. We have binaries for SPIM and SPIM SAL in the cmpe12c course locker. SPIM and SPIM SAL are available on both the sparc (am, si, ese) and NetBSD (angus, Oakes lab) machines. To use these programs, use the bind_locker command:

% bind_locker cmpe12c

You will also need to bind to the cmpe12c homework locker to submit your programs:

% bind_locker cmpe12c.hwk

You'll need to logout and log in again for the changes to take affect.

To run a SPIM SAL program from a NetBSD machine, use the following command:

% xspimsal -file filename

where filename is the name of the file containing your SAL program.
