+<h2 class="appendix">Appendix I Trace File Format</h2>
+<a name="index-trace-file-format"></a>
+
+<p>The trace file comes in three parts: a header, a textual description
+section, and a trace frame section with binary data.
+</p>
+<p>The header has the form <code>\x7fTRACE0\n</code>. The first byte is
+<code>0x7f</code> so as to indicate that the file contains binary data,
+while the <code>0</code> is a version number that may have different values
+in the future.
+</p>
+<p>The description section consists of multiple lines of <small>ASCII</small> text
+separated by newline characters (<code>0xa</code>). The lines may include a
+variety of optional descriptive or context-setting information, such
+as tracepoint definitions or register set size. <small>GDB</small> will
+ignore any line that it does not recognize. An empty line marks the end
+of this section.
+</p>
+<dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>R <var>size</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Specifies the size of a register block in bytes. This is equal to the
+size of a <code>g</code> packet payload in the remote protocol. <var>size</var>
+is an ascii decimal number. There should be only one such line in
+a single trace file.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>status <var>status</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Trace status. <var>status</var> has the same format as a <code>qTStatus</code>
+remote packet reply. There should be only one such line in a single trace
+file.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>tp <var>payload</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Tracepoint definition. The <var>payload</var> has the same format as
+<code>qTfP</code>/<code>qTsP</code> remote packet reply payload. A single tracepoint
+may take multiple lines of definition, corresponding to the multiple
+reply packets.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>tsv <var>payload</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Trace state variable definition. The <var>payload</var> has the same format as
+<code>qTfV</code>/<code>qTsV</code> remote packet reply payload. A single variable
+may take multiple lines of definition, corresponding to the multiple
+reply packets.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>tdesc <var>payload</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Target description in XML format. The <var>payload</var> is a single line of
+the XML file. All such lines should be concatenated together to get
+the original XML file. This file is in the same format as <code>qXfer</code>
+<code>features</code> payload, and corresponds to the main <code>target.xml</code>
+file. Includes are not allowed.
+</p>
+</dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>The trace frame section consists of a number of consecutive frames.
+Each frame begins with a two-byte tracepoint number, followed by a
+four-byte size giving the amount of data in the frame. The data in
+the frame consists of a number of blocks, each introduced by a
+character indicating its type (at least register, memory, and trace
+state variable). The data in this section is raw binary, not a
+hexadecimal or other encoding; its endianness matches the target&rsquo;s
+endianness.
+</p>
+
+<dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>R <var>bytes</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Register block. The number and ordering of bytes matches that of a
+<code>g</code> packet in the remote protocol. Note that these are the
+actual bytes, in target order, not a hexadecimal encoding.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>M <var>address</var> <var>length</var> <var>bytes</var>...</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Memory block. This is a contiguous block of memory, at the 8-byte
+address <var>address</var>, with a 2-byte length <var>length</var>, followed by
+<var>length</var> bytes.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>V <var>number</var> <var>value</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>Trace state variable block. This records the 8-byte signed value
+<var>value</var> of trace state variable numbered <var>number</var>.
+</p>
+</dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>Future enhancements of the trace file format may include additional types
+of blocks.
