<h1>Memory Service</h1>
<p>The service provides basic operations to read/write memory on a target. Command
and event parameters are encoded as zero terminated <a href='TCF Specification.html#JSON'>JSON</a> strings.</p>
<p>The service uses standard format for error reports,
see <a href='TCF Services.html#ErrorFormat'>Error Report Format</a>.</p>
<p>A single memory access can succeed for some addresses and fail for others. In such
situation result message can contain partially valid data. Array of error addresses,
in addition to error report, describes data validity on per byte basis:</p>
<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
<i><array of error addresses></i>
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> null
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> [ <i><error address list></i> ]
<i><error address list></i>
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> <i><error address></i>
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> <i><error address list></i> , <i><error address></i>
<i><error address></i>
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> { "addr" : <i><int: range starting address></i> , "size" : <i><int: range length in bytes></i> , "stat" : <i><int: status code></i> , "msg" : <i><error description></i> }
</font></b></pre>
<p>If there is no entry in error addresses array for a data byte, then status of such
byte is defined by main error report.</p>
<p>Status code is bitwise or of status flags:</p>
<dl>
<dt><code><b>BYTE_VALID = 0x00</b></code> <dd>no error for this byte
<dt><code><b>BYTE_UNKNOWN = 0x01</b></code> <dd>status is unknown
<dt><code><b>BYTE_INVALID = 0x02</b></code> <dd>byte value in invalid, error message describes the problem
<dt><code><b>BYTE_CANNOT_READ = 0x04</b></code> <dd>cannot read the byte
<dt><code><b>BYTE_CANNOT_WRITE = 0x08</b></code> <dd>cannot write the byte
</dl>

<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
C <i><token></i> Memory getContext <i><string: context ID></i>
</font></b></pre>
<p>The command retrieves context info for given context ID. A context corresponds to an
execution thread, process, address space, etc. Exact
meaning of a context depends on the target. Target agent should define contexts hierarchy
that is:</p>
<ul type='disc'>
<li>Sufficient to resolve possible ambiguity of a memory address;
<li>Adequately reflects target memory management strategy;
<li>Intuitive to a user.
</ul>
<p>For traditional OS, like UNIX, memory access context can be one of:</p>
<ul type='disc'>
<li>Kernel address space;
<li>A process.
</ul>

<i><context data></i>
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> null
<font face=Wingdings>Ψ</font> <i><object></i>
</font></b></pre>
<p>Context data object should, at least, contain member
<b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i><string>.</i></font></b>
Context data is expected to be cached by clients.
Service sends contextChanged event to notify changes in context data.</p>
<p>Predefined memory context properties are:</p>
<ul>
<li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i><string></i></font></b></code>
- ID of the context, same as getContext command argument.
<li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ParentID" : <i><string></i></font></b></code>
- ID of a parent context.
<li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"BigEndian" : <i><boolean></i></font></b></code>
- true if memory is big-endian.
<li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"AddressSize" : <i><int></i></font></b></code>
- size of memory address in bytes.
</ul>

<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
C <i><token></i> Memory getChildren <i><string: parent context ID></i>
</font></b></pre>
<p>The command requests a list of contexts available for memory access commands.</p>
<p>Parent context ID can be null to retrieve top level of the hierarchy, can be one
of context IDs retrieved by previous getChildren commands, or it can be obtained from another service.
Contexts hierarchy can be simple plain list or it can form a tree. It is up to target agent developers to
choose layout that is most descriptive for a given target.</p>
