!dcr

The !dcr extension displays the default control register (DCR) at the specified address.

!dcr Expression [DisplayLevel]

Important  This command has been deprecated in the Windows Debugger Version 10.0.14257 and later, and is no longer available.

Parameters

Expression
Specifies the hexadecimal address of the DCR to display. The expression @dcr can also be used for this parameter. In that case, information about the current processor DCR is displayed.

DisplayLevel
Can be any one of the following options:

0
Causes only the values of each DCR field to be displayed. This is the default value.

1
Causes the display to include more in-depth information about each of the DCR fields that is not reserved or ignored.

2

DLL

This extension command can only be used with an Itanium-based target computer.

Remarks

The DCR specifies default parameters for the processor status register values on interruption. The DCR also specifies some additional global controls, as well as whether or not speculative load faults can be deferred.
