# Ghidra SVD
[](https://github.com/antoniovazquezblanco/GhidraSVD/actions/workflows/main.yml)
[](https://github.com/antoniovazquezblanco/GhidraSVD/actions/workflows/codeql.yml)
Import CMSIS SVD information onto your Ghidra memory map. This is usefull when reversing firmware from devices that publish SVD files. This is a re-write of another [Ghidra SVD Loader](https://github.com/leveldown-security/SVD-Loader-Ghidra) plugin.
This is the preferred way to generate memory maps, but if no SVD files are available for your device you may want to try the [Ghidra DeviceTreeBlob plugin](https://github.com/antoniovazquezblanco/GhidraDeviceTreeBlob).
## Installing
This extension is available for installation via the [Ghidra Extension Manager](https://github.com/antoniovazquezblanco/GhidraExtensionManager).
You may also install this extension by going to the [releases page](https://github.com/antoniovazquezblanco/GhidraSVD/releases) and downloading the latest version for your Ghidra distribution. In order to install from the release, in Ghidra main window go to `File` > `Install extensions...`. In the new window press the `+` icon to import the downloaded zip.
## Usage
In a CodeBrowser window press `File` > `Import SVD...`.
A file dialog will allow you to select your SVD file and import it. Memory map will automatically be updated.
You may find SVD file sources in the following table:
