+
+<p><small>GDB</small> provides the following ARM-specific commands:
+</p>
+<dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>set arm disassembler</code></dt>
+<dd><a name="index-set-arm"></a>
+<p>This commands selects from a list of disassembly styles. The
+<code>&quot;std&quot;</code> style is the standard style.

+</dd>
+<dt><code>show arm disassembler</code></dt>
+<dd><a name="index-show-arm"></a>
+<p>Show the current disassembly style.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>set arm apcs32</code></dt>
+<dd><a name="index-ARM-32_002dbit-mode"></a>
+<p>This command toggles ARM operation mode between 32-bit and 26-bit.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>show arm apcs32</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Display the current usage of the ARM 32-bit mode.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>set arm fpu <var>fputype</var></code></dt>
+<dd><p>This command sets the ARM floating-point unit (FPU) type. The
+argument <var>fputype</var> can be one of these:
+</p>
+<dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>auto</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Determine the FPU type by querying the OS ABI.
+</p></dd>
+<dt><code>softfpa</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Software FPU, with mixed-endian doubles on little-endian ARM
+processors.

+<dt><code>fpa</code></dt>
+<dd><p>GCC-compiled FPA co-processor.

+<dt><code>softvfp</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Software FPU with pure-endian doubles.

+<dt><code>vfp</code></dt>
+<dd><p>VFP co-processor.
+</p></dd>
+</dl>
+
+</dd>
+<dt><code>show arm fpu</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Show the current type of the FPU.

+whether instructions are ARM or Thumb. This command controls
+<small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s default behavior when the symbol table is not
+available. The default is &lsquo;<samp>auto</samp>&rsquo;, which causes <small>GDB</small> to
+use the current execution mode (from the <code>T</code> bit in the <code>CPSR</code>
+register).
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>show arm fallback-mode</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Show the current fallback instruction mode.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>set arm force-mode (arm|thumb|auto)</code></dt>
+<dd><p>This command overrides use of the symbol table to determine whether
+instructions are ARM or Thumb. The default is &lsquo;<samp>auto</samp>&rsquo;, which
+causes <small>GDB</small> to use the symbol table and then the setting
+of &lsquo;<samp>set arm fallback-mode</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>show arm force-mode</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Show the current forced instruction mode.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>set arm unwind-secure-frames</code></dt>
+<dd><p>This command enables unwinding from Non-secure to Secure mode on
+Cortex-M with Security extension.
+This can trigger security exceptions when unwinding the exception
+stack.
+It is enabled by default.

+<dt><code>show arm unwind-secure-frames</code></dt>
+<dd><p>Show whether unwinding from Non-secure to Secure mode is enabled.

+<dd><p>Toggle whether to display ARM-specific debugging messages from the ARM
+target support subsystem.
