RISC emulator and programming tools

An implementation of an emulator for an abstract RISC instruction set,
and a toolchain consisting of an assembler and a linker that can
compile the specified assembly language and produce a binary file,
ready to be loaded and executed in the emulator.

Specification

Read the full specification of the project, in Serbian: ETF_SS

The specification also contains detailed explanation of the solution.

Quick build

In order to compile the entire toolchain, execute the following commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/cicovic-andrija/risc-runtime.git
$ mkdir -p ~/bin/
$ make

Build each tool separately

It is possible to compile each tool separately, using an appropriate
make rule:

$ git clone https://github.com/cicovic-andrija/risc-runtime.git
$ mkdir -p ~/bin/
$ make assembler
$ make linker
$ make emulator

This can also be accomplished by executing make command from
within each tool’s directory. For example, to build a linker, execute:

$ git clone https://github.com/cicovic-andrija/risc-runtime.git
$ cd linker/
$ make

Assembler usage

$ ass [-o file] [-t file] [-l file] [-a addr] [-h] input_file

Option	Explanation
-o file	Specify relocatable object output binary file
-t file	Specify relocatable object output text file
-l file	Specify log file
-a addr	Define load address for sections
-h	Print help message and exit

Linker usage

$ lnk [-o file] [-t file] [-l file] [-i] [-h] object_file...

Option	Explanation
-o file	Specify executable output binary file
-t file	Specify executable output text file
-l file	Specify log file
-i	Ignore section load addresses predefined in input files
-h	Print help message and exit

Emulator usage

$ emu [exec_file]

accompanying Makefiles for building with the toolchain, can be found
