@c FIXME add some specific types of data
@table @code
@item R @var{size}
Specifies the size of a register block in bytes. This is equal to the
size of a @code{g} packet payload in the remote protocol. @var{size}
is an ascii decimal number. There should be only one such line in
a single trace file.
@item status @var{status}
Trace status. @var{status} has the same format as a @code{qTStatus}
remote packet reply. There should be only one such line in a single trace
file.
@item tp @var{payload}
Tracepoint definition. The @var{payload} has the same format as
@code{qTfP}/@code{qTsP} remote packet reply payload. A single tracepoint
may take multiple lines of definition, corresponding to the multiple
reply packets.
@item tsv @var{payload}
Trace state variable definition. The @var{payload} has the same format as
@code{qTfV}/@code{qTsV} remote packet reply payload. A single variable
may take multiple lines of definition, corresponding to the multiple
reply packets.
@item tdesc @var{payload}
Target description in XML format. The @var{payload} 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{features} payload, and corresponds to the main @code{target.xml}
file. Includes are not allowed.
