I finished my breakpoint extensions prototype, and discovered that GDB inserts all enabled breakpoints when program execution is resumed, and removes them when it regains control. Although I'm not surprised by this behavior, it would be preferable if the target itself was responsible for managing, inserting and removing breakpoints. Then a lot of the traffic on the debugging channel could be avoided. I didn't see anything in the GDB source that suggests this is possible; but I'm hoping I'm missing something. --jtc
