Are you an existing Development Studio user?

Arm Development Studio is used by many developers throughout the development cycle. We are very interested to learn how you use Development Studio, and of your experience with it. We would appreciate a few moments of your time to reply to this anonymous survey.

Neoverse V2

Arm Development Studio 2023.0 is the first public release to support the Neoverse V2 processor. Support is provided throughout the package:

  • Arm Compiler for Embedded support
  • Arm DS Debugger
  • Fixed Virtual Platforms

Example projects are also provided.

A matrix multiplication example utilizing the SME2 Scalable Matrix Extension is also provided.

SME2 support in Arm DS Debugger

Trace collection from multiple ETR components

The Arm DS Debugger is always evolving to support the requirements of the most complex Arm-based SoCs. When used with DSTREAM-XT, you can now collect trace simultaneously from up to 16 on-chip CoreSight ETR components.

PCIe trace architecture (single ETR)

As illustrated by the above diagram (taken from here), trace data from ETR is routed to the PCIe Root Port, and collected in the 16GB buffer in the DSTREAM-XT probe.

PCIe provides the bandwidth to enable multiple ETRs to send their data simultaneously. The DSTREAM-XT trace buffer is divided into 16/N GB blocks for each of the N ETRs present in the system.

Multiple ETRs with DSTREAM-XT

Each store can be independently controlled. You can start capturing from all ETRs, then manually stop one and dump the trace from its store while the others continue to capture. Similarly the stores can stop-on-trace-trigger independently of each other.
