Simulator support for starvation counter queues

Hi,

I made a small example project in CCS5.0.3 to test the function of the starvation counter.

For me with "C6670 Device Cycle Accurate Simulator" the starvation counter doesn't work.

If I pop a descriptor from the empty starvation counter queue the starvation count is not incremented.

So my question:

Must the starvation counter queues functionality be enabled or

is there no support for starvation counters in the simulator yet? 

Here the example code:

        (...)

       if ((txFreeQueHnd = Qmss_queueOpen(
                        Qmss_QueueType_STARVATION_COUNTER_QUEUE,
                        736, &isAllocated)) < 0) {
                    System_printf(
                            "Error Core %d : Opening Transmit free descriptor queue\n",
                            coreNum);
                    return;
                } else
                    System_printf("Core %d : Transmit Free Queue Number : %d opened\n",
                            coreNum, txFreeQueHnd);

        int i;
        for( i=0;i<100;i++){
            System_printf("-----------------------------------------\n");System_flush();
            System_printf("Starvation counter queue %d entry count : %d \n", txFreeQueHnd, Qmss_getQueueEntryCount(txFreeQueHnd));System_flush();
            System_printf("Popped descriptor 0x%08x\n", Qmss_queuePop(txFreeQueHnd) );System_flush();
            System_printf ("Starvation count: %d \n", Qmss_getStarvationCount(738));System_flush();
        }

      (...)

The output:

[TMS320C66x_0] -----------------------------------------
[TMS320C66x_0] Tx Free Queue 736 Entry Count : 0
[TMS320C66x_0] Popped descriptor 0x       0
[TMS320C66x_0] Starvation Count : 0
