getgregs
Syntaxgetgregs thread
Explanation
It retrieves the general purpose register contents for a target system thread. Specifically, it sends a message requesting the contents of the
general purpose registers for the specified target system thread through the
dbgif tool and displays the register contents (in hex) on stdout. The contents
of certain CP0 registers (such as the program counter) are also displayed.
Before executing this command, you must ensure that the dbgif program is running and that the METHOD environment variable is set to zero to indicate that this
is a request for the R4300 CPU. The co-processor does not have general
registers, so it is inappropriate to set METHOD to 1. In csh, this is
accomplished by specifying:
setenv METHOD 0
If the specified thread is running, the displayed values will be the
contents of the registers at the time the thread was preempted to service
the getgregs request.
Bugs
In the event of a communications failure, the program will dump core. If this happens, you must remove the core file manually.
