cmp command
 | 
						|
===========
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Synopsis
 | 
						|
--------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    cmp [.b, .w, .l, .q] addr1 addr2 count
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Description
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The cmp command is used to compare two memory areas. By default it works on
 | 
						|
four byte (32-bit) values. By appending .b, .w, .l, .q the size of the
 | 
						|
values is controlled:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
cmp.b
 | 
						|
    compare 1 byte (8-bit) values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
cmp.w
 | 
						|
    compare 2 byte (16-bit) values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
cmp.l
 | 
						|
    compare 4 byte (32-bit) values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
cmp.q
 | 
						|
    compare 8 byte (64-bit) values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The parameters are used as follows:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
addr1
 | 
						|
    Address of the first memory area.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
addr2
 | 
						|
    Address of the second memory area.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
count
 | 
						|
    Number of bytes to compare (as hexadecimal number).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Example
 | 
						|
-------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In the example below the strings "Hello world\n" and "Hello World\n" are written
 | 
						|
to memory and then compared.

Configuration
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The cmp command is only available if CONFIG_CMD_MEMORY=y. The cmp.q command is
 | 
						|
only available if additionally CONFIG_MEM_SUPPORT_64BIT_DATA=y.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Return value
 | 
						|
------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The return value $? is true (0) if the compared memory areas are equal.
 | 
						|
The reutrn value is false (1) if the compared memory areas differ.
