Description

Recent use of analyze_multics to investigate the problem resolved by MCR10093 (Fix move_non_perm_wired_segs.pl1) uncovered some needs for improving or adding azm requests. These needs are summarized briefly below.

analyze_multics (azm) should include new requests to:

  • display contents of a core_map entry (cme)
  • display contents of a segment loader table entry (slte)
  • check contents of SST and core_map against a rigorous set of rules supposedly implemented by page control and its supporting routines.

The existing aste request should be enhanced to select the aste for display based upon:

  • offset of ASTE within the SST segment.
  • offset of a PTW within the SST or unpaged_page_tables segments

It currently allows selection based upon supervisor segname or seg_number.
