I am one of the "elfs" that work on OpenOCD (the GDB + JTAG + ARM debug package) Are you describing additional items in "target.xml" that GDB requests from the remote? If so - what about other items, such as target endian, cputype (or in arm terms, "arch") and perhaps a flag that indicates the target is "bare metal" and not an operating system based target? -Duane.
