To Initialize Activity Performance Measurements - HP 64782 User Manual

To initialize activity performance measurements

•
Use the performance_measurement_initialize command.
After you set up the trace command, you must tell the SPMT the address
ranges on which you wish to make activity measurements. This is done by
initializing the performance measurement. You can initialize the performance
measurement in the following ways:
•
Default initialization (using global symbols if the symbols database is
loaded).
•
Initialize with user-defined files.
•
Initialize with global symbols.
•
Initialize with local symbols.
•
Restore a previous performance measurement (if the emulation system
has been exited and re-entered).
Default Initialization
Entering the performance_measurement_initialize command with no
options specifies an activity measurement. If a valid symbolic database has
been loaded, the addresses of all global procedures and static symbols will be
used; otherwise, a default set of ranges that cover the entire processor
address range will be used.
Initialization with User Defined Ranges
You can specifically give the SPMT address ranges to use by placing the
information in a file and entering the file name in the
performance_measurement_initialize command.
