I got an app to compile fine for v8 FM with gcc, but I notice that
seg-faults hang the simulator.  Using raise() properly exits FM,
but I can't seem to trap the seg-fault with signal() or do anything
intelligent to know about the seg-fault.  Normal execution works well.

    int
  main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
    * (unsigned int *) (0) = 0; // seg-fault hangs FM
    return(0);
  }

thanks,
Rory

It is possible but not necessarily easy.

Using the binary tools you've downloaded you will want to do something like the 
following:

aarch64-none-elf-gcc -specs=elf-aem-ve.specs ...

The -specs option has to be on all your invocations of GCC and G++.  You should 
also invoke the linker through GCC with this option.

Then you need to invoke the model, given an image called foo.axf:

Foundation_v8 --image foo.axf --semi-host="foo.axf OPT1 OPT2" --quiet

Note that the first option to --semi-host is the name of the image again.

Thanks,

Matt
