ENV Parameter and Options

Default

Meaning of Default

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Memory Search Delay Enable [Y/N]

N

There will be no delay before the

 

 

 

Bug begins its search for a work

 

 

page.

 

 

 

Memory Search Delay Address

FFFFCE0F

Default address is $FFFFCE0F.

 

 

This is the MVME166 GCSR

 

 

GPCSR0 as accessed through

 

 

VMEbus A16 space and assumes

 

 

the MVME166 GRPAD (group

 

 

address) and BDAD (board

 

 

address within group) switches

 

 

are set to "on". This byte-wide

 

 

value is initialized to $FF by

 

 

MVME166 hardware after a

 

 

System or Power-on Reset. In a

 

 

multi-166 environment, where

 

 

the work pages of several Bugs

 

 

are to reside in the memory of

 

 

the primary (first) MVME166,

 

 

the non-primary CPUs will wait

 

 

for the data at the Memory

 

 

Search Delay Address to be set

 

 

to $00, $01, or $02 (refer to the

 

 

Memory Requirements section in

 

 

Chapter 3 for the definition of

 

 

these values) before attempting

 

 

to locate their work page in the

 

 

memory of the primary CPU.

 

 

 

Memory Size Enable [Y/N]

Y

Memory will be sized for Self

 

 

Test diagnostics.

 

 

 

Memory Size Starting Address

00000000

Default Starting Address is $0.

 

 

 

Memory Size Ending Address

02000000

Default Ending Address is the

 

 

calculated size of local

 

 

memory.

 

 

 

Base Address of Local Memory

00000000

Beginning address of Local

 

 

Memory. It must be a multiple

 

 

of the Local Memory board size,

 

 

starting with 0. The Bug will set

 

 

up hardware address decoders

 

 

so that Local Memory resides as

 

 

one contiguous block at this

 

 

address. Default is $0.
