Chapter 5. Debug Support

Programming Model
Bytes are displayed in least-to-most-significant order. The processor captures only those
target addresses associated with taken branches which use a variant addressing mode, that
is, RTE and RTS instructions, JMP and JSR instructions using address register indirect or
indexed addressing modes, and all exception vectors.
The simplest example of a branch instruction using a variant address is the compiled code
for a C language case statement. Typically, the evaluation of this statement uses the variable
of an expression as an index into a table of offsets, where each offset points to a unique case
within the structure. For such change-of-flow operations, the MCF5272 uses the debug pins
to output the following sequence of information on successive processor clock cycles:
1. Use PST (0x5) to identify that a taken branch was executed.
2. Using the PST pins, optionally signal the target address to be displayed sequentially
on the DDATA pins. Encodings 0x9–0xB identify the number of bytes displayed.
3. The new target address is optionally available on subsequent cycles using the
DDATA port. The number of bytes of the target address displayed on this port is
configurable (2, 3, or 4 bytes).
Another example of a variant branch instruction would be a JMP (A0) instruction.
Figure 5-3 shows when the PST and DDATA outputs that indicate when a JMP (A0)
executed, assuming the CSR was programmed to display the lower 2 bytes of an address.
Figure 5-3. Example JMP Instruction Output on PST/DDATA
PST of 0x5 indicates a taken branch and the marker value 0x9 indicates a 2-byte address.
Thus, the subsequent 4 nibbles of DDATA display the lower 2 bytes of address register A0
in least-to-most-significant nibble order. The PST output after the JMP instruction
completes depends on the target instruction. The PST can continue with the next instruction
before the address has completely displayed on DDATA because of the DDATA FIFO. If
the FIFO is full and the next instruction has captured values to display on DDATA, the
pipeline stalls (PST = 0x0) until space is available in the FIFO.
5.4 Programming Model
In addition to the existing BDM commands that provide access to the processor’s registers
and the memory subsystem, the debug module contains nine registers to support the
required functionality. These registers are also accessible from the processor’s supervisor
programming model by executing the WDEBUG instruction (write only). Thus, the
breakpoint hardware in the debug module can be read or written by the external
