.TH PMDBG 1 "PCP" "Performance Co-Pilot"
.SH NAME
\f3pmdbg\f1 \- translate Performance Co-Pilot debug control flags
.\" literals use .B or \f3
.\" arguments use .I or \f2
.SH SYNOPSIS
\f3pmdbg\f1
\f2code\f1 ...

\f3pmdbg\f1
\f3\-l\f1
.SH DESCRIPTION
The components of the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) use
a global vector of bit-fields
to control diagnostic and debug output.
.PP
.B pmdbg
with a
.B \-l
argument prints out the mnemonic and decimal values of all
the bit-fields in the debug control vector.
.PP
In the alternative usage, the
.I code
arguments are values for the debug vector, and the bit-fields that
are enabled by each of these values is listed.
.PP
Each
.I code
may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hexadecimal value prefixed
by either ``0x'' or ``0X''.
.PP
Most applications using the facilities of the PCP support
a
.BI \-D N
command-line syntax to enable debug control.
.B pmdbg
is designed to help choose an appropriate value for
.IR N .
.SH "PCP ENVIRONMENT"
Environment variables with the prefix
.B PCP_
are used to parameterize the file and directory names
used by PCP.
On each installation, the file
.I /etc/pcp.conf
contains the local values for these variables.
The
.B $PCP_CONF
variable may be used to specify an alternative
configuration file,
as described in
.BR pcp.conf (5).
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR PCPIntro (1),
.BR pcp.conf (5)
and
.BR pcp.env (5).
