ok... thanks for your answer. I don't have RVDEBUG yet, but having a look at the parameters if the cpu core in Maxsim, there is 2 options relevant to Semihosting: - enable Semihosting - Use RealView Semihosting i/o
You're speaking about the second one, right ? Since I don't have an RVDS licence yet, I'm using the standard console emulation of Maxsim...
How does it work, by the way? if there's no support for the semihosting SWI in your code ? Do you know if there is a documentation about that issue ?
Best regards, nicolas

For sure this code is very low level, but I want to use some special IO features that Arm provided in a version of Newlib. Those special features are mainly used for Semihosting, or platform emulation when you emulate an Arm based hardware using the standard IO of the host to communicate.
For semihosting it is not necessary to include support in u-boot. The rvdebug application does that automatically regardless of the binary being aware of it or not. You need to alter the CPU/connection definition. It has an boolean called Semihosting, toggle this to True and all your output will appear in RVDS application.
