Many of the parameters controlling the simulation and the simulated configuration are passed to RSIM on the command line. Command line arguments to the application being simulated are given after a double-dash. For example, to simulate the application program sort with an active list of size 64 and with the application parameters -n 1024 -p8, one would use the command line:
rsim -a64 -f sort -- -n1024 -p8
The remainder of this section describes the command line parameters of RSIM. In each case, num specifies a non-negative integer and file represents a filename on the host file system (may be relatively or absolutely specified). Other option specifiers are explained as needed below.
