Open Source Linux Debuggers

The "Open On-Chip Debugger" provides JTAG/SWD access from GDB (or directly with TCL scripts) to processors with ARM and MIPS based cores. See website for full list of supported targets.

USBDM BDM Interface for Freescale Microcontrollers USBDM consists of two components: Hardware interfaces for various target devices This includes interfaces ranging from very simple hardware to more complete and capable hardware. Software to support these interfaces This includes: - Plugins to work with Freescale's Codewarrior software under Windows - Plugins to extend the usabilty of Eclipse with USBDM and Codesourcery & ARM toolchains. This includes GDB sprites providing a complete open source development toolchain. - A set of stand-alone programmer applications. These support programming of RS08, HCS08, HCS12, Coldfire and Kinetis devices. Where applicable, the software is available for Windows and Linux.

gpsim is an open sourced simulator for Microchip's PIC microcontrollers. It supports all three families of PICs: 12-bit, 14-bit, and 16-bit cores. See also gputils http://gputils.sourceforge.net/

A gdb-like debugger for bash

TilEm is an emulator for the Z80 series of Texas Instruments graphing calculators. It supports all of the existing models in this series (TI-73, TI-76.fr, TI-81, TI-82, TI-83, TI-83 Plus, TI-84 Plus, TI-85, and TI-86.) TilEm features detailed emulation of all aspects of the calculator hardware, and includes a debugger for writing assembly programs.

This emulator is capable of providing a faithful replication of the HP48. It also has a debugger for the saturn processor.

HT is a file editor/viewer/analyzer for executables. The goal is to combine the low-level functionality of a debugger and the usability of IDEs. We plan to implement all (hex-)editing features and support of the most important file formats.

NB: Development has been moved to Github: https://github.com/avrdudes/avarice AVaRICE is a program for interfacing the Atmel JTAG ICE to GDB to allow users to debug their embedded AVR target.

Virtual T is a TRS-80 Model 100/102/200 emulator that runs on Windows, Linux, and Macintosh. The goal of Virtual T is to provide 100% hardware emulation so any existing programs will run. It also adds powerful development and debugging tools.

Udis86 is an easy-to-use minimalistic disassembler library for the x86 and x86-64 instruction set architectures. The primary intent of the design and development of udis86 is to aid software development projects that entail binary code analysis.

Portable emulator for Pokémon-Mini. Last version: 0.60 (16 June 2015) Check Wiki for platform dependencies and other information.

serialconsole (sc) is a minimal terminal program allowing to use one machine to access the serial console of another machine.

A retargettable micro-controller and embedded system emulator architecture, providing common supports to emulate various types of micro-processors & devices on an x86 PC. Development of emulation for Arduino and various shields is just about to be launched in 2012.

SkyEye is a very fast full system simulator which takes llvm as IR of dynmic compiled framework.. It can simulate series ARM, Coldfire,Mips, Powerpc, Sparc, x86, TI DSP and Blackfin DSP Processor. Also can simulate multicore system by the multicore of host. The commercial support is provided by DigiProto Co. (http://www.digiproto.com)

The Virtual USB Analyzer is a graphical tool for browsing traces of captured USB data. It supports logs generated by Ellisys hardware analyzers and VMware's software analyzer, and Linux's usbmon.

Find and debug your most painful performance issues across code, infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines. Let you tag your data on the dimensions important for your organization. Allows you to store large volumes of high cardinality profiling data cheaply and efficiently. FlameQL enables custom queries to select and aggregate profiles quickly and efficiently for easy analysis. Analyze application performance profiles using our suite of profiling tools. Understand usage of CPU and memory resources at any point in time and identify performance issue before your customer do. Collect, store, and analyze profiles from various external profiling tools in one central location. Link to your Open Telemetry tracing data and get request-specific or span-specific profiles to enhance other observability data like traces and logs.

GXemul is a full-system computer emulator, emulating processors (ARM, MIPS, M88K, PowerPC, and SuperH) and surrounding peripherals, in some cases well enough to let unmodified guest operating systems run as if they were running on real hardware.

Serial line sniffer (slsnif). slsnif is a serial port logging utility. It listens to the specified serial port and logs all data going through this port in both directions.

Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

The MSX emulator that aims for perfection. NOTE: this project moved to GitHub. The content of this project page is frozen and will not be updated. The project is alive and kicking, though! Check out our website for the new project pages.

Software Graphical 8051 Emulator, based on Allegro.

A Zilog Z80 simulator, debugger and profiler tailored for ZX Spectrum development (but generic enough to be used with other platforms)

Entex Adventure Vision emulator with debugging capabilities. Latest version: 1.0 (March 16, 2013) For now the emulator is hardcoded with Qt, in future this will be changed to make the project more portable. Short F.A.Q. ------------------ Q: Emulator can't reach 100% emulation with sound enabled! A: Fiddle with the Sound buffer size inside "Options..."

This is a very simple simulator for the Microchip PIC16C71. I've used it for various small projects. It has an option video display feature to simulate a software-generated video output, which I used to debug PIC-Pong.

Bash made easier: A simple IDE / Debugger for writing, debugging, and executing single commands and short scripts. If you are a struggling occasional user of Bash, or would be a user if it weren't so difficult to get started, then this program will help. Runs on Linux or Windows Subsystem for Linux.
