S12S Debug Module (S12SDBG)
BRSET/BRCLR instructions. Immediately after address information is placed in the Trace Buffer, the
DBG module writes this value into a background register. This prevents consecutive duplicate address
entries in the Trace Buffer resulting from repeated branches.
Loop1 Mode only inhibits consecutive duplicate source address entries that would typically be stored in
most tight looping constructs. It does not inhibit repeated entries of destination addresses or vector
addresses, since repeated entries of these would most likely indicate a bug in the user’s code that the DBG
module is designed to help find.
8.4.5.2.3 Detail Mode
In Detail Mode, address and data for all memory and register accesses is stored in the trace buffer. This
mode is intended to supply additional information on indexed, indirect addressing modes where storing
only the destination address would not provide all information required for a user to determine where the
code is in error. This mode also features information bit storage to the trace buffer, for each address byte
storage. The information bits indicate the size of access (word or byte) and the type of access (read or
write).
When tracing in Detail Mode, all cycles are traced except those when the CPU is either in a free or opcode
fetch cycle.
8.4.5.2.4 Compressed Pure PC Mode
In Compressed Pure PC Mode, the PC addresses of all executed opcodes, including illegal opcodes are
stored. A compressed storage format is used to increase the effective depth of the trace buffer. This is
achieved by storing the lower order bits each time and using 2 information bits to indicate if a 64 byte
boundary has been crossed, in which case the full PC is stored.
Each Trace Buffer row consists of 2 information bits and 18 PC address bits
NOTE:
When tracing is terminated using forced breakpoints, latency in breakpoint
generation means that opcodes following the opcode causing the breakpoint
can be stored to the trace buffer. The number of opcodes is dependent on
program flow. This can be avoided by using tagged breakpoints.
8.4.5.3 Trace Buffer Organization (Normal, Loop1, Detail modes)
ADRH, ADRM, ADRL denote address high, middle and low byte respectively. The numerical suffix refers
to the tracing count. The information format for Loop1 and Normal modes is identical. In Detail mode, the
address and data for each entry are stored on consecutive lines, thus the maximum number of entries is 32.
In this case DBGCNT bits are incremented twice, once for the address line and once for the data line, on
each trace buffer entry. In Detail mode CINF comprises of R/W and size access information (CRW and
CSZ respectively).
Single byte data accesses in Detail Mode are always stored to the low byte of the trace buffer (DATAL)
and the high byte is cleared. When tracing word accesses, the byte at the lower address is always stored to
trace buffer byte1 and the byte at the higher address is stored to byte0.
