/PD /NOPD Functionally equivalent to /FD and /NOFD. Causes the EXAMINE command to treat the location specified in the EXAMINE command as a function descriptor (FD) or procedure descriptor (PD), depending on the architecture of the system or dump being analyzed. /PD can also be used to qualify symbols. You can use the /PD and /NOPD qualifiers with the /INSTRUCTION qualifier to override treating symbols as function or procedure descriptors. Placing the qualifier right after a symbol overrides how the symbol is treated. /PD forces it to be a procedure descriptor, and /NOPD forces it to not be a procedure descriptor. If you place the /PD qualifier right after the /INSTRUCTION qualifier, SDA treats the calculated value as a function or procedure descriptor. /NOPD has the opposite effect. In the following examples, TEST_ROUTINE is a PD symbol. Its value is 500 and the code address in this procedure descriptor is 1000. The first example displays instructions starting at 520. EXAMINE/INSTRUCTION TEST_ROUTINE/NOPD+20 The next example fetches code address from TEST_ROUTINE PD, adds 20 and displays instructions at that address. In other words, it displays code starting at location 1020. EXAMINE/INSTRUCTION TEST_ROUTINE+20 The final example treats the address TEST_ROUTINE+20 as a procedure descriptor, so it fetches the code address out of a procedure descriptor at address 520. It then uses that address to display instructions. EXAMINE/INSTRUCTION/PD TEST_ROUTINE/NOPD+20
