Debugger General Information
Overview
This chapter describes the basic features of the debugger used on the
MVME162LX Embedded Controller. The firmware is known as the
"
MVME162Bug
" or simply the "
162Bug
". It
includes diagnostics for testing
and configuring Industry Pack (IP) modules.
Description of 162Bug
The162Bug is a powerful evaluation and debugging tool for systems built
around the MVME162LX CISC-based microcomputers. Facilities are
available for loading and executing user programs under complete
operator control for system evaluation. The 162Bug includes commands
for display and modification of memory, breakpoint and tracing
capabilities, a powerful assembler/disassembler useful for patching
programs, and a power-up self test which verifies the integrity of the
system. Various 162Bug routines that handle I/O, data conversion, and
string functions are available to user programs through the TRAP #15
system calls.
The 162Bug consists of three parts:
1. A command-driven user-interactive software debugger (referred to
as the "debugger"). Its usage is described in Chapter 4.
2. A command-driven diagnostic package for the MVME162LX
controller (referred to as the "diagnostics"). This is described in the
MVME162Bug Diagnostics Manual.
3. A user interface which accepts commands from the system console
terminal.
When using the 162Bug, you can operate out of the debugger directory or
the diagnostic directory. If you are operating in the debugger directory, the
debugger prompt
162-Bug>
is displayed and you have all of the debugger
commands at your disposal.
