Debugging Applications—Security Software
The MIL application is invoked from the command line using the following syntax:
debugmgr {command}
where {command} is one of the following:
—help
—DebugEnable
— DebugDisable
—VersionDumpAll
— setHC <timeout>
— SystemHealthCheck
— DataDump (not supported in this release)
— SetFileName <filename>
These commands are described in more detail in Section 11.3.
11.2.1 Loading the MIL Application
On FreeBSD, load the debug manager using the following commands:
cd /EP805XX_release
setenv ICP_ROOT $PWD
kldload $ICP_ROOT/StagingArea/icp_debugmgmt.ko
On Linux, follow these steps:
1. Load the debug manager using the following commands:
cd /EP805XX_release
export ICP_ROOT=$PWD
insmod $ICP_ROOT/StagingArea/icp_debugmgmt.ko
2. Create a character device /dev/mil_driver using the following steps:
a. Find the device major number associated with the character device /dev/
mil_driver using the following command:
cat /proc/devices | grep mil_driver
The following is a sample output from the above command:
249 /dev/mil_driver
b. Use the device major number displayed by the above command to create the
character device using the following command:
mknod /dev/mil_driver c <device major number> 0
If we use the sample output from step a., then the mknod command would be:
mknod /dev/mil_driver c 249 0
11.3 MIL User Command Details
