Abstract

In selecting and building a processor configuration, a user creates a new set of user-defined instructions, places them in a file directory, and invokes a tool that processes the user instructions and transforms them into a form usable by the software development tools. The user then invokes the software development tools, telling the tools to dynamically use the instructions created in the new directory. In this way, the user may customize a processor configuration by adding new instructions and within minutes, be able to evaluate that feature. The user is able to keep multiple sets of potential instructions and easily switch between them when evaluating their application.
