Basic Alpha SRM Console Command Descriptions
Description
The deposit command writes data to the specified address, such as
a memory location, register, device, or file. The defaults for address
space, data size, and address are the last specified values. After
initialization, the default for address space is physical memory; for
data size, the default is a quadword; and for address, the default is
zero.
An address or device can be specified by concatenating the device
name with the address. For example, use
pmem:0 and specify the
size of the address space to be written. If a conflicting device,
address, or data size is specified, the console ignores the command
and issues an error response.
