+<a name="index-target-descriptions_002c-ARM-features"></a>
+
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.core</samp>&rsquo; feature is required for non-M-profile
+ARM targets.
+It should contain registers &lsquo;<samp>r0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>r13</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>sp</samp>&rsquo;,
+&lsquo;<samp>lr</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>pc</samp>&rsquo;, and &lsquo;<samp>cpsr</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p>For M-profile targets (e.g. Cortex-M3), the &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.core</samp>&rsquo;
+feature is replaced by &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile</samp>&rsquo;. It should contain
+registers &lsquo;<samp>r0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>r13</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>sp</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>lr</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>pc</samp>&rsquo;,
+and &lsquo;<samp>xpsr</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.fpa</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional. If present, it
+should contain registers &lsquo;<samp>f0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>f7</samp>&rsquo; and &lsquo;<samp>fps</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile-mve</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional. If present, it
+must contain register &lsquo;<samp>vpr</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p>If the &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile-mve</samp>&rsquo; feature is available, <small>GDB</small>
+will synthesize the &lsquo;<samp>p0</samp>&rsquo; pseudo register from &lsquo;<samp>vpr</samp>&rsquo; contents.
+</p>
+<p>If the &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.vfp</samp>&rsquo; feature is available alongside the
+&lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile-mve</samp>&rsquo; feature, <small>GDB</small> will
+synthesize the &lsquo;<samp>q</samp>&rsquo; pseudo registers from &lsquo;<samp>d</samp>&rsquo; register
+contents.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.xscale.iwmmxt</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional. If present,
+it should contain at least registers &lsquo;<samp>wR0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>wR15</samp>&rsquo; and
+&lsquo;<samp>wCGR0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>wCGR3</samp>&rsquo;. The &lsquo;<samp>wCID</samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp>wCon</samp>&rsquo;,
+&lsquo;<samp>wCSSF</samp>&rsquo;, and &lsquo;<samp>wCASF</samp>&rsquo; registers are optional.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.vfp</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional. If present, it
+should contain at least registers &lsquo;<samp>d0</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>d15</samp>&rsquo;. If
+they are present, &lsquo;<samp>d16</samp>&rsquo; through &lsquo;<samp>d31</samp>&rsquo; should also be included.
+<small>GDB</small> will synthesize the single-precision registers from
+halves of the double-precision registers.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.neon</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional. It does not
+need to contain registers; it instructs <small>GDB</small> to display the
+VFP double-precision registers as vectors and to synthesize the
+quad-precision registers from pairs of double-precision registers.
+If this feature is present, &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.vfp</samp>&rsquo; must also
+be present and include 32 double-precision registers.
+</p>
+<p>The &lsquo;<samp>org.gnu.gdb.arm.m-profile-pacbti</samp>&rsquo; feature is optional, and
+acknowledges support for the ARMv8.1-m PACBTI extensions. <small>GDB</small>
+will track return address signing states and will decorate backtraces using
+the [PAC] marker, similar to AArch64&rsquo;s PAC extension.
+See <a href="AArch64.html#AArch64-PAC">AArch64 PAC</a>.
