 ## Going Beyond
 
-The core has been developed with a full licensed version of QuestaSim. If you happen to have this simulator available yourself here is how you could run the core with it.
-
-To specify the test to run use (e.g.: you want to run `rv64ui-p-sraw` inside the `tmp/risc-tests/build/isa` folder:
-```
-make sim elf-bin=path/to/rv64ui-p-sraw
-```
-
-If you call `sim` with `batch-mode=1` it will run without the GUI. QuestaSim uses `riscv-fesvr` for communication as well.
-
-### CI Testsuites and Randomized Constrained Testing with Torture
-
-We provide two CI configuration files for Travis CI and GitLab CI that run the RISCV assembly tests, the RISCV benchmarks and a randomized RISCV Torture test. The difference between the two is that Travis CI runs these tests only on Verilator, whereas GitLab CI runs the same tests on QuestaSim and Verilator.
-
-If you would like to run the CI test suites locally on your machine, follow any of the two scripts `ci/travis-ci-emul.sh` and `ci/travis-ci-emul.sh` (depending on whether you have QuestaSim or not). In particular, you have to get the required packages for your system, the paths in `ci/path-setup.sh` to match your setup, and run the installation and build scripts prior to running any of the tests suites.
-
-Once everything is set up and installed, you can run the tests suites as follows (using Verilator):
-
-```
-make verilate
-make run-asm-tests-verilator
-make run-benchmarks-verilator
-```
-
-In order to run randomized Torture tests, you first have to generate the randomized program prior to running the simulation:
-
-```
-./ci/get-torture.sh
-make torture-gen
-make torture-rtest-verilator
-```
-This runs the randomized program on Spike and on the RTL target, and checks whether the two signatures match. The random instruction mix can be configured in the `./tmp/riscv-torture/config/default.config` file.
-
-CVA6 can dump a trace-log in Questa which can be easily diffed against Spike with commit log enabled. In `include/ariane_pkg.sv` set:
-
-```verilog
-localparam bit ENABLE_SPIKE_COMMIT_LOG = 1'b1;
-```
-This runs the randomized program on Spike and on the RTL target, and checks whether the two signatures match. The random instruction mix can be configured in the `./tmp/riscv-torture/config/default.config` file.
-This will dump a file called `trace_hart_*_*_commit.log`.
-
-This can be helpful for debugging long traces (e.g.: torture traces). To compile Spike with the commit log feature do:
-
-```
-apt-get install device-tree-compiler
-mkdir build
-cd build
-../configure --prefix=$RISCV --with-fesvr=$RISCV --enable-commitlog
-make
-make install
-```
-
-### Memory Preloading
-
-In standard configuration the debug module will take care of loading the memory content. It will also handle communication with `riscv-fesvr`.
-Depending on the scenario this might not be diserable (e.g.: preloading of a large elf or linux boot in simulation). You can use the preload elf flag to specify the path
-to a binary which will be preloaded.
-
-> You will loose all `riscv-fesvr` communcation like sytemcalls and eoc capabilities.
-
-```
-make sim preload=elf
-```
-
-<!-- ### Tandem Verification with Spike
-
-```
-$ make sim preload=/home/zarubaf/Downloads/riscv-tests/build/benchmarks/dhrystone.riscv tandem=1
-```
-There are a couple of caveats:
-
-- Memories should be initialized to zero. Random or `x` are not supported.
-- UART needs to be replaced by a mock UART which exhibits always ready behavior.
-- There is no end of test signaling at the moment. You are supposed to kill the simulation when sufficiently long run.
-- You need to use the modified Spike version in the `tb` subdirectory.
-- The RTC clock needs to be sufficiently slow (e.g.: 32 kHz seems to work). This is needed as otherwise there will be a difference when reading the `mtime` register as the RTL simulation takes more time to propagate the information through the system.
-- All traps except memory traps need to zero the `tval` register. There is a switch you can set in `ariane_pkg`.
-- `mcycle` needs to be incremented with `instret` to be similar to the performance counters found in Spike (IPC = 1)

 ### Re-generating the Bootcode (ZSBL)
 
 The zero stage bootloader (ZSBL) for RTL simulation lives in `bootrom/` while the bootcode for the FPGA is in `fpga/src/bootrom`. The RTL bootcode simply jumps to the base of the DRAM where the FSBL takes over. For the FPGA the ZSBL performs additional housekeeping. Both bootloader pass the hartid as well as address to the device tree in argumen register `a0` and `a1` respectively.
