On AMD 29000 family processors, registers are saved in a separate ``register
stack''. There is no way for GDB to determine the extent of this stack.
Normally, GDB just assumes that the stack is ``large enough''.
This may result in GDB referencing memory locations that don't
exist, you can specify the ending address of the register stack with the
@code{set rstack_high_address} command. The argument should be an address,
which you will probably want to precede with 0x and specify in hexadecimal.

To resume the remote program and stop debugging it, use the @code{detach}

@kindex set remotedebug
@kindex show remotedebug
If you have trouble with the serial connection, you can use the
command @code{set remotedebug}. This causes all packets sent back
and forth across the serial line to be reported to GDB's standard output.
@code{set remotedebug off} turns it off, and @code{show remotedebug} will
show you its current state.
Other remote targets may be available in your
configuration of GDB; use @code{help targets} to list them.
