User Manual 32

3.2.3 Part [HOST]

The part [HOST] defines some host specific values.

IP ipaddress

The IP address of the host.

 

ipaddress

the IP address in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

 

Example:

IP 151.120.25.100

FILE filename

The default name of the file that is loaded into RAM using the Telnet ’load’

 

command. This name is used to access the file via TFTP. If the filename

 

starts with a $, this $ is replace with the path of the configuration file name.

 

filename

the filename including the full path or $ for relative path.

 

Example:

FILE

F:\gnu\demo\arm\test.elf

 

 

FILE

$test.elf

FORMAT format [offset]

The format of the image file and an optional load address offset. If the im-

 

age is already stored in ROM on the target, select ROM as the format. The

 

optional parameter "offset" is added to any load address read from the im-

 

age file.

 

 

 

format

SREC, BIN, AOUT, ELF, COFF or ROM

 

Example:

FORMAT ELF

 

 

FORMAT ELF 0x10000

LOAD mode

In Agent mode, this parameters defines if the code is loaded automatically

 

after every reset.

 

 

 

mode

AUTO, MANUAL

 

Example:

LOAD MANUAL

START address

The address where to start the program file. If this value is not defined and

 

the core is not in ROM, the address is taken from the code file. If this value

 

is not defined and the core is already in ROM, the PC will not be set before

 

starting the target. This means, the program starts at the normal reset ad-

 

dress (0x00000000).

 

 

address

the address where to start the program file

 

Example:

START 0x10000

DEBUGPORT port [RECONNECT]

The TCP port GDB uses to access the target. If the RECONNECT param- eter is present, an open TCP/IP connection (Telnet/GDB) will be closed if there is a connect request from the same host (same IP address).

port

the TCP port number (default = 2001)

Example:

DEBUGPORT 2001
