Debug Commands

BM Command
This command series changes the base for output to decimal and displays the
contents of R0 again.
215,05,00069-BASE D O; D R0
*REG* #01279
This command series changes the base for output to the standard value, which is octal
for the TNS state, and displays the contents of R0 again.
215,05,00069-BASE S O; D R0
*REG* %002377
For more examples of the BASE command, see Appendix F, Sample Debug Sessions.
BM Command
The BM command sets memory-access breakpoints. The BM command has four
functions:
•
Set unconditional memory-access breakpoint
•
Set conditional memory-access breakpoint
•
Set trace memory-access breakpoint
•
Set execute memory-access breakpoint
Each function is defined by a unique syntax. Each function and its syntax is described
on the following pages.
Set Unconditional Memory-Access Breakpoint
The BM command can set an unconditional memory-access breakpoint. An
unconditional memory-access breakpoint causes the process to enter the debug state
each time the breakpoint location is accessed in the specified manner (reading, writing,
or changing). The unconditional form of the BM command is:
address
is the address where the breakpoint is to occur. For more information, see Address
Syntax on page 3-12.
