参考：https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/server-and-hpc/arm-architecture-tools/arm-instruction-emulator/installing-arm-instruction-emulator
运行环境：Qemu+arm64版本的ubuntu16.04
前面一篇博客使用Qemu运行Ubuntu文件系统 —— 搭建SVE学习环境（2）中才Qemu上运行了一个ubuntu16.04的系统，然后再在其中安装了ArmIE，来模拟SVE指令的执行。下面简单介绍一下ArmIE的安装方法，关于ArmIE的详细介绍，请参考ARM官网：Arm Instruction Emulator
第一步，安装module软件包（链接）
sudo apt-get install environment-modules
第二步、下载ArmIE安装包（链接）
可以到这里下载ArmIE安装包，这里下载 ARM-Instruction-Emulator_19.2_AArch64_Ubuntu_16.04_aarch64.tar.gz
第三步、解压安装ArmIE
tar -xvf ARM-Instruction-Emulator_19.2_AArch64_Ubuntu_16.04_aarch64.tar.gz
cd ARM-Instruction-Emulator_19.2_AArch64_Ubuntu_16.04_aarch64
sudo ./arm-instruction-emulator-19.2_Generic-AArch64_Ubuntu-16.04_aarch64-linux-deb.sh
默认会安装到/opt/arm下，也可以通过参数-i换成别的安装路径
第四步、设置环境变量MODULEPATH
export MODULEPATH=$MODULEPATH:/opt/arm/modulefiles/
第五步、重新登录系统，使用module查看哪些模块，并加载ArmIE模块
pengdl@firefly:~$ module avail
-------------------------------------------------------------- /opt/arm/modulefiles --------------------------------------------------------------
Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/arm-instruction-emulator/19.2 Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/gcc_runtimes/8.2.0
---------------------------------------------------------- /usr/share/modules/versions -----------------------------------------------------------
3.2.10
--------------------------------------------------------- /usr/share/modules/modulefiles ---------------------------------------------------------
dot module-git module-info modules null use.own
------------------------------------------------------------- /opt/arm/modulefiles/ --------------------------------------------------------------
Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/arm-instruction-emulator/19.2 Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/gcc_runtimes/8.2.0
pengdl@firefly:~$ module load Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/arm-instruction-emulator/19.2
pengdl@firefly:~$ echo $PATH
/opt/arm/arm-instruction-emulator-19.2_Generic-AArch64_Ubuntu-16.04_aarch64-linux/bin64:/home/pengdl/bin:/home/pengdl/.local/bin:/home/pengdl/sve_acle_cross/bin:/opt/gstreamer/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
pengdl@firefly:~$
为了实现以后每次开机都可以直接使用ArmIE，可以将 module load Generic-AArch64/Ubuntu/16.04/arm-instruction-emulator/19.2 加到.bashrc中。
第六步、测试
pengdl@firefly:~$ armie
Execute binaries containing SVE instructions on Armv8-A hardware
Usage:
armie [emulation parameters] --
Examples:
armie -msve-vector-bits=256 -- ./sve_program
armie -msve-vector-bits=2048 --iclient libinscount.so -- ./sve_program --opt foo
armie -e libmemtrace_sve_512.so -i libmemtrace_simple.so -- ./sve_program
Flags:
-m<string> Architecture specific options. Supported options:
-msve-vector-bits=<uint> Vector length to use. Must be a multiple of 128 bits up to 2048 bits
-mlist-vector-lengths List all valid vector lengths
-e, --eclient An emulation client based on the DynamoRIO API
If this is not specified, the default SVE client is used
-i, --iclient An instrumentation client based on the DynamoRIO API
-x, --unsafe-ldstex Enables a workaround which avoids an exclusive load/store bug on certain AArch64 hardware
(See 'Known Issues' in RELEASE_NOTES.txt for details)
-s, --show-drrun-cmd Writes the full DynamoRIO drrun command used to execute ArmIE to stderr
This can be useful when debugging or developing clients
-h, --help Prints this help message
-V, --version Prints the version
完。
