One observable is that backtraces over signal handlers are not handled correctly -- since the special M-profile EXC_RETURN value is not recognised. That happens because GDB doesn't think the target is M-profile. This happens because GDB sees a reported feature set from the Qemu remote connection that includes the feature `org.gnu.gdb.arm.core`. As described in the GDB online docs, for "M-profile targets (e.g. Cortex-= M3), the =E2=80=98org.gnu.gdb.arm.core=E2=80=99 feature is replaced by =E2= =80=98org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile=E2=80=99" https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/ARM-Features.html From a scan of the Qemu source code on commit ea1329bb3a8d5cd25b70e3dbf73e7ded4d5ad756 it seems that when emulating an arm core it uses `arm-core.xml` unconditionally for `CPUClass->gdb_core_xml_file`, and that means the only feature provided is `org.gnu.gdb.arm.core`. Note that even though there is a command to set the architecture in GDB, = setting the target architecture to an M-profile core is still not a valid w= orkaround. This is because the target description overrides everything in setting th= e `is_m` attribute within GDB. Reproduction of the observable: Using the examples here https://git.linaro.org/people/peter.maydell/m-pro= file-tests.git/tree/ . Build the examples, and run = ``` qemu-system-arm -s -S -no-reboot -M lm3s6965evb -m 16 -serial stdio -disp= lay none -net nic -net user,restrict=3Don -d guest_errors,unimp -kernel tes= t3-kern.bin ``` Then in a GDB session ``` vshcmd: > arm-none-eabi-gdb -q = = = (gdb) vshcmd: > file test3-kern.elf Reading symbols from test3-kern.elf...
