Chapter 8 Debugging Functions

The R3900 Processor Core has the following support functions for debugging that have been added to the R3000A instruction base. They are independent of the R3000A architecture, which makes them transparent to user programs.

The real-time debugging system is supported by a third party.

Debug exceptions (Single Step, Break Instruction)

Additional register (DEPC) for holding the PC value when a debug exception occurs

Additional register (Debug) for controlling debug exceptions

Additional instruction (DERET) for return from a debug exception

Figure 8-1 CP0 Registers

When a debug exception occurs, only registers Debug and DEPC are updated. The registers accessed by user application programs (general-purpose registers, Status, Cause, EPC, BadVAddr, PRId, Config and Cache) retain their values.
