x command
Default Values
The defaulting rules for arguments to the x command enable you to easily display
successive memory ranges using the same formatting:
•
Default address—if you do not specify an address, the x command displays
memory following the last address examined, or 0 if no address was previously
examined.
•
Default format—if you do not specify format, the x command uses the format
specifications (format, size, and number) that you most recently specified with the
x command.
These defaults (the last address examined, and the format specification) are set by a
number of commands—the x command, the info breakpoints command, the info line
command, and the print command when you use it to display memory.
Convenience Variables $_ and $__
The convenience variables $_ and $__ store information about the most recent x
command. The convenience variable $_ is automatically set by the x command to the
last address examined, and $__ stores the contents of that address formatted as
specified in the command.
Repeating the Last x Command
After you enter an x command, you can repeat it by pressing the Enter key at the next
Native Inspect prompt. The effect is the same as if you had entered another x
command with no parameters: listing continues with the address following the last one
listed. This ability to repeat continues until you enter any other Native Inspect
command.
Examples
To display memory at address 0x70000fc0 and then display three machine
instructions starting at that address:
(eInspect 7,464):x 0x70000fc0
0x70000fc0:0 <func_1+416>: 0x0900cc68
(eInspect 7,464):x /3i 0x70000fc0
0x70000fc0:0 <func_1+416>: [MMI] st4 [r52]=r51
0x70000fc0:1 <func_1+422>: addl r53=192,r1
0x70000fc0:2 <func_1+428>: nop.i 0x0;;
