Arm rdi target and initial processor mode

[Pierre Habraken <Pierre dot Habraken at imag dot fr>]

Yet another newbie question :

I want to debug an Arm program which must start running in supervisor
mode. The target is an Arm Evaluator7T (target rdi /dev/ttyS0).
In order to achieve that, one way is to appropriately set up the initial
value of the status register by typing something like:

(gdb) break _start
(gdb) continue
(gdb) set variable $cpsr = 0x83
(gdb) continue 

But this is the hard way.
I would like to use a single gdb command or option which would tell
Angel to set the processor mode to the desired value before launching
the program.
Does any such command or option exist ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Pierre
