Item Description
-si-revision
#|none|any
The -si-revision {#|none|any} switch provides a silicon revision
of the specified processor.
The switch parameter represents a silicon revision of the processor
specified by the -proc processor switch. The parameter takes one of
three forms:
The none value indicates that the VisualDSP++ ignores silicon
errata.
The # value indicates one or more decimal digits, followed by
a point, followed by one or two decimal digits. Examples of
revisions are: 0.0; 1.12; 23.1. Revision 0.1 is distinct from
and “lower” than revision 0.10. The digits to the left of the
point specify the chip tapeout number; the digits to the right
of the point identify the metal mask revision number. The
number to the right of the point cannot exceed decimal 255.
The any value indicates that VisualDSP++ produces an output
file that can be run at any silicon revision.
The switch generates either a warning about any potential anomalous
conditions or an error if any anomalous conditions occur.
In the absence of the silicon revision switch, the loader selects the
greatest silicon revision it is aware of, if any.
� In
the absence of the switch parameter (a valid revision
value)—-si-revision alone or with an invalid value—
the loader generates an error.
-version Directs the splitter utility to show its version information.
