The ‘org.gnu.gdb.mips.cpu’ feature is required for MIPS targets. It should contain registers ‘r0’ through ‘r31’, ‘lo’, ‘hi’, and ‘pc’. They may be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the target.
The ‘org.gnu.gdb.mips.cp0’ feature is also required. It should contain at least the ‘status’, ‘badvaddr’, and ‘cause’ registers. They may be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the target.
The ‘org.gnu.gdb.mips.fpu’ feature is currently required, though it may be optional in a future version of GDB. It should contain registers ‘f0’ through ‘f31’, ‘fcsr’, and ‘fir’. They may be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the target.
The ‘org.gnu.gdb.mips.dsp’ feature is optional. It should contain registers ‘hi1’ through ‘hi3’, ‘lo1’ through ‘lo3’, and ‘dspctl’. The ‘dspctl’ register should be 32-bit and the rest may be 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the target.
The ‘org.gnu.gdb.mips.linux’ feature is optional. It should contain a single register, ‘restart’, which is used by the Linux kernel to control restartable syscalls.
