3.2. Commands

This section details the General Commands available. A subsection is dedicated to each of the commands and describes the behavior and configuration of that command as well as providing an example usage.

3.2.1. help - Print command help

SYNOPSYS:
help misc
DESCRIPTION:

This command prints the command help. Help without arguments prints a list of topics and help with a topic prints the help for that topic.

EXIT STATUS:

This command returns 0.

NOTES:

The help print will break the output up based on the environment variable SHELL_LINES. If this environment variable is not set the default is 16 lines. If set the number of lines is set to that the value. If the shell lines is set 0 there will be no break.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example of how to use alias:

SHLL [/] $ help
help: ('r' repeat last cmd - 'e' edit last cmd)

EXIT STATUS:

This command returns 0 on success and non-zero if an error is encountered.

NOTES:

None.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example of how to use date:

3.2.7. echo - produce message in a shell script

SYNOPSYS:
echo [-n | -e] args ...
DESCRIPTION:

Echo prints its arguments on the standard output, separated by spaces. Unless the -n option is present, a newline is output following the arguments. The -e option causes echo to treat the escape sequences specially, as described in the following paragraph. The -e option is the default, and is provided solely for compatibility with other systems. Only one of the options -n and -e may be given.

If any of the following sequences of characters is encountered during output, the sequence is not output. Instead, the specified action is performed:

b

A backspace character is output.

c

Subsequent output is suppressed. This is normally used at the end of the last argument to suppress the trailing newline that echo would otherwise output.

f

Output a form feed.

n

Output a newline character.

r

Output a carriage return.

t

Output a (horizontal) tab character.

v

Output a vertical tab.

0digits

Output the character whose value is given by zero to three digits. If there are zero digits, a nul character is output.

\

Output a backslash.

EXIT STATUS:

This command returns 0 on success and non-zero if an error is encountered.

NOTES:

The octal character escape mechanism (0digits) differs from the C language mechanism.

There is no way to force echo to treat its arguments literally, rather than interpreting them as options and escape sequences.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example of how to use echo:

SHLL [/] $ echo a b c
a b c
SHLL [/] $ echo
CONFIGURATION:

This command is included in the default shell command set. When building a custom command set, define CONFIGURE_SHELL_COMMAND_ECHO to have this command included.

This command can be excluded from the shell command set by defining CONFIGURE_SHELL_NO_COMMAND_ECHO when all shell commands have been configured.

PROGRAMMING INFORMATION:

int rtems_shell_rtems_main_echo(
    int    argc,
    char **argv
);

The configuration structure for the echo has the following prototype:

extern rtems_shell_cmd_t rtems_shell_ECHO_Command;
ORIGIN:

The implementation and portions of the documentation for this command are from NetBSD 4.0.

3.2.8. sleep - delay for a specified amount of time

SYNOPSYS:
sleep seconds
sleep seconds nanoseconds
DESCRIPTION:

This command causes the task executing the shell to block for the specified number of seconds and nanoseconds.

EXIT STATUS:

This command returns 0 on success and non-zero if an error is encountered.

NOTES:

This command is implemented using the nanosleep() method.

The command line interface is similar to the sleep command found on POSIX systems but the addition of the nanoseconds parameter allows fine grained delays in shell scripts without adding another command such as usleep.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example of how to use sleep:

SHLL [/] $ sleep 10
SHLL [/] $ sleep 0 5000000

It is not clear from the above but there is a ten second pause after executing the first command before the prompt is printed. The second command completes very quickly from a human perspective and there is no noticeable delay in the prompt being printed.

CONFIGURATION:

This command is included in the default shell command set. When building a custom command set, define CONFIGURE_SHELL_COMMAND_SLEEP to have this command included.

This command can be excluded from the shell command set by defining CONFIGURE_SHELL_NO_COMMAND_SLEEP when all shell commands have been configured.

PROGRAMMING INFORMATION:

The sleep is implemented by a C language function which has the following prototype:

int rtems_shell_rtems_main_sleep(
    int    argc,
    char **argv
);

3.2.9. id - show uid gid euid and egid

SYNOPSYS:
id
DESCRIPTION:

This command prints the user identity. This includes the user id (uid), group id (gid), effective user id (euid), and effective group id (egid).

EXIT STATUS:

This command returns 0 on success and non-zero if an error is encountered.

NOTES:

Remember there is only one POSIX process in a single processor RTEMS application. Each thread may have its own user identity and that identity is used by the filesystem to enforce permissions.

EXAMPLES:

The first example of the id command is from a session logged in as the normal user rtems:

SHLL [/] # id
uid=1(rtems),gid=1(rtems),euid=1(rtems),egid=1(rtems)

The second example of the id command is from a session logged in as the root user:

SHLL [/] # id
uid=0(root),gid=0(root),euid=0(root),egid=0(root)

DESCRIPTION:

Get one or multiple bytes from an EEPROM like I2C device. If <NR-BYTES> is not given the command defaults to reading one byte. If you read multiple bytes (<NR-BYTES> given and bigger then 1) the read will be done in one single request. An auto incrementing register pointer is assumed.

The command supports a -h option to get usage details.

All numbers can be entered in decimal form (normal digits; e.g. 16), hexadecimal form (with 0x prefix; e.g. 0x10) or octal form (with a leading zero; e.g. 020).

The command works only with I2C bus drivers that use the Linux-Style API.

DESCRIPTION:

Write one or multiple bytes to an EEPROM like I2C device. If you write multiple bytes (multiple <VALUE> given) the write will be done in one single request. An auto incrementing register pointer is assumed.

The command supports a -h option to get usage details.

All numbers can be entered in decimal form (normal digits; e.g. 16), hexadecimal form (with 0x prefix; e.g. 0x10) or octal form (with a leading zero; e.g. 020).

The command works only with I2C bus drivers that use the Linux-Style API.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example how to write one byte of 0x00 to the register at 0x11 of the I2C device at 0x1f:

SHLL [/] # i2cset /dev/i2c1 0x1f 0x11 0x00
SHLL [/] #
CONFIGURATION:

3.2.21. spi - read and write simple data to an SPI bus

SYNOPSYS:
spi [-loh] [-c <cs>] [-s <speed>] [-m <mode>] <SPI_BUS> xx [xx [..]]
DESCRIPTION:

Write data to an SPI bus and read the responses.

The command supports a -h option to get usage details.

The data bytes (xx in the SYNOPSIS) are in hexadecimal form (e.g. 0x10 or 10 both have a value of decimal 16). This allows longer hex strings before the shell input limit is reached. All other numbers can be entered in decimal form (normal digits; e.g. 16), hexadecimal form (with 0x prefix; e.g. 0x10) or octal form (with a leading zero; e.g. 020).

The command works only with SPI bus drivers that use the Linux-Style API.

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example how to write multiple bytes (0x4a 0x4b 0x4c) to the bus. The response is 0xa1 0xa2 0xa3 in this case. Chip select 1 will be used.

SHLL [/] # spi /dev/spi1 -c 1 4a 4b 4c
received: a1 a2 a3
SHLL [/] #
CONFIGURATION:

This command is included in the default shell command set. When building a custom command set, define CONFIGURE_SHELL_COMMAND_SPI to have this command included.

This command can be excluded from the shell command set by defining CONFIGURE_SHELL_NO_COMMAND_SPI when all shell commands have been configured.

3.2.22. exit - exit the shell

SYNOPSYS:
exit
DESCRIPTION:

EXAMPLES:

The following is an example of how to use exit:

SHLL [/] $ exit
Shell exiting
CONFIGURATION:

This command is always present and cannot be disabled.

PROGRAMMING INFORMATION:

The exit is implemented directly in the shell interpreter. There is no C routine associated with it.
