Breakpoint
A location in the program. If execution reaches this location, the debugger halts
execution of the code image.
See also
Watchpoint.
CISC
See
Complex Instruction Set Computer.
Complex Instruction Set Computer
A microprocessor that recognizes a large number of instructions.
See also
Reduced Instruction Set Computer.
CPSR
See
Program Status Register.
Control bits
The bottom eight bits of a program status register. The control bits change when an
exception arises and can be altered by software only when the processor is in a
privileged mode.
Current Program Status Register
See
Program Status Register.
DCC
Debug Communications Channel.
Debug state
A condition that allows the monitoring and control of the execution of a processor.
Usually used to find errors in the application program flow.
Debugger
A debugging system which includes a program, used to detect, locate, and correct
software faults, together with custom hardware that supports software debugging.
EmbeddedICE
The EmbeddedICE Logic is controlled via the JTAG test access port, using a protocol
converter such as MultiICE: an extra piece of hardware that allows software tools to
debug code running on a target processor.
See also
ICE and JTAG.
EmbeddedICE-RT
A version of EmbeddedICE logic that has improved support for real-time debugging.
Exception modes
Privileged modes that are entered when specific exceptions occur.
Exception
Handles an event. For example, an exception could handle an external interrupt or an
undefined instruction.
External abort
An abort that is generated by the external memory system.
FIQ
Fast interrupt.
ICE
See
In-circuit emulator.
Idempotent
A mathematical quantity that when applied to itself under a given binary operation
equals itself.
