<h1>Registers Service</h1>

<p>The service provides basic operations to read/write CPU and hardware registers. 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>

In addition to commands that can set/get individual register context values, the service defines commands to set/get values at
multiple locations. This allows:
<ol>
    <li> to get/set multiple register contexts in one command
    <li> to specify offset and size for get/set on large register groups
    <li> to get/set trunkated register values, e.g. only the low 32 bits of a 64-bit register
</ol>

<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
C &bull; <i>&lt;token&gt;</i> &bull; Registers &bull; getContext &bull; <i>&lt;string: context ID&gt;</i> &bull;
</font></b></pre>

<p>The command retrieves context info for given context ID. A context corresponds to an
register, register group, register bit field, etc. Exact meaning of a context depends on the target.
Target agent should define contexts hierarchy that is:</p>
 
<ul type='disc'>
    <li>Adequately reflects target hardware registers layout;
    <li>Consistent with the lingo/terminology of the processor manuals;
    <li>Intuitive to a user.
</ul>
 
<p>Reply:</p>

<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
R &bull; <i>&lt;token&gt;</i> &bull; <i>&lt;error report&gt;</i> &bull; <i>&lt;context data&gt;</i> &bull;

<i>&lt;context data&gt;</i>
    &rArr; null
    &rArr; <i>&lt;object&gt;</i>
</font></b></pre>

<p>Context data object should, at least, contain member
<b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;.</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 register context properties are:</p>
<ul>
    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</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>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - ID of a parent context.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ProcessID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - process ID.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Name" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - context name.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Description" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - context description.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Size" : <i>&lt;int&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - context size in bytes. Byte arrays in get/set commandss should be same size.
    Hardware register can be smaller then this size, for example in case
    when register size is not an even number of bytes. In such case implementation
    should add/remove padding that consists of necessary number of zero bits.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Readable" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if context value can be read.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ReadOnce" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if reading the context (register) destroys its current value - it can be read only once.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Writeable" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if context value can be written.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"WriteOnce" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if register value can not be overwritten - every write counts.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"SideEffects" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if writing the context can change values of other registers.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Volatile" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if the register value can change even when target is stopped.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Float" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if the register value is a floating-point value.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"BigEndian" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if big endian, which means decreasing numeric significance with increasing bit number.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"LeftToRight" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if the lowest numbered bit (i.e. bit #0 or bit #1, depending on "FirstBit" value) should be shown to user as the left-most bit.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"FirstBit" : <i>&lt;int&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - 0 or 1. If the context has bit field children, bit positions of the fields can be zero-based or 1-based.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Bits" : <i>&lt;array of int&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - if context is a bit field, contains the field bit numbers in the parent context.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"Values" : <i>&lt;array of named values&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - predefined names (mnemonics) for some of context values.

</ul>

<h3><a name='CmdGetChildren'>Get Children</a></h3>
 
<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
C &bull; <i>&lt;token&gt;</i> &bull; Registers &bull; getChildren &bull; <i>&lt;string: parent context ID&gt;</i> &bull;
</font></b></pre>

<p>The command requests a list of contexts available for registers access commands.</p>
 
<p>Parent context ID is usually a thread ID retrieved through Run Control Service or one
of context IDs retrieved by previous getChildren commands.
Contexts hierarchy can be simple plain list of registers, or it can form a tree of register groups, registers and bit fields.
It is up to target agent developers to choose layout that is most descriptive for a given target.</p>
