Basic Alpha SRM Console Command Descriptions

Description

The deposit command writes data to the specified address, such as a memory location, register, device, or file. The defaults for address space, data size, and address are the last specified values. After initialization, the default for address space is physical memory; for data size, the default is a quadword; and for address, the default is zero.

An address or device can be specified by concatenating the device name with the address. For example, use pmem:0 and specify the size of the address space to be written. If a conflicting device, address, or data size is specified, the console ignores the command and issues an error response.

>>>d -n 1ff pmem:0 0

Clears the first 512 bytes of physical

 

 

memory.

>>>d -l -n 3

pmem:1234 5

Writes the value 5 into four longwords,

 

 

starting at physical memory address 1234.

>>>d -n 8 r0

ffffffff

Loads GPRs R0 through R8 with -1.

>>>d -l -n 10 -s 200 pmem:0 8

Writes the value 8 in the first longword of

 

 

the first 17 pages in physical memory.
