This BSP supports the SuperH simulator included in GDB.  This BSP can be built to support the SH1 mode (shsim and simsh7032) or SH2 simulation in GDB.  The SuperH simulator in GDB does not support real devices or interrupts so the BSP has the following devices:

 *  console is implemented by printing via a trap to the simulator
 *  clock is implemented as a special idle task which calls rtems_clock_tick when it is executed.

NOTE: Because of the clock driver implementation this BSP is incapable of correctly executing tests which assume preemption from an interrupt.

This BSP was implemented many years ago but bitrotted and was restored to operational status after the 4.9 branch was cut.  This BSP is primarily used for tool testing purposes although it does prove some RTEMS functionality.  

The following illustrates a session using this simulator:
