HP IA-64, Ski Simulator manual Missing ELF header

Ski IA-64 Simulator Reference Manual 1.0L

Missing ELF header

See “File size > Memory size” on page D-3.

Missing file version number

You are trying to restore a saved simulator state and the first non-blank, non-comment line of the file doesn’t begin with “ file_ver”, the file version string. Is the file a Ski simulator state save file? See “Saving and Restoring the Simulator State” on page 8-8.

missing value for option %s

You specified a command line option that requires an argument. See “Command Line Flags” on page 2-4.

More than %d characters in expression: %s

You gave Ski an expression that is too long for it to parse. Try a shorter expression. See “Expressions” on page 4-2.

Nesting overflow

You invoked a command file from within another command file, and another command file from within there, and again and again... and you did it too much. Do you have an recursive loop, where a command file invokes itself? See Chapter 9, “Command Files”.

No breakpoints set

You tried to list all breakpoints with the bl command but there aren’t any. See “Listing Program Breakpoints” on page 8-5.

No breakpoints to delete

You tried to delete all breakpoints with the bD command but there aren’t any. See “Deleting Program Breakpoints” on page 8-5.

No previous command

You tried to re-run the previous command in ski but you haven’t executed any commands yet– there is nothing to re- run. See “The ski Command Window” on page 3-13.

No such command

You typed a command to Ski that Ski doesn’t understand. Either you mis-typed, or Ski is broken, or the rules that underpin the basic functioning of our universe have ceased to operate properly. In the first case, try typing your com- mand correctly; use the “ help” command or see Appendix A, “Command Reference” to find out what the com- mands are. In the third case, you’re on your own; bring film.

No such user %s

You specified a filename with a leading tilde (“ ~”), causing Ski to try to expand the first word into the home directory for the corresponding user. Ski wasn’t able to the find the user. Perhaps you mis-typed the filename or specified a user that doesn’t exist? See “Filenames” on page 4-5.

Non %s-aligned address. Aligned to 0x%llx

You used the =2, =4, or =8 commands to write data to memory but you specified an improperly-aligned address. The %s field on the left tells what kind of alignment was needed and the %llx field on the right is the address that Ski used. This may not be the address you want! See “Changing Registers and Memory with Assignment Commands” on page 8-1.
