Hi Simon,

First, thank you a lot for such explanatory answer.

I repeat the code snippet here:
----
bool
arc_target::low_breakpoint_at (CORE_ADDR where)
{
  uint16_t insn;
  uint16_t breakpoint = ntohs (TRAP_S_1_OPCODE);

  target_read_memory (where, (gdb_byte *) &insn, TRAP_S_1_SIZE);
  return (insn == breakpoint);
}
----

Because this memory access is indeed to check for a "breakpoint",
then I should NOT be using breakpoint-undoing edition.  Therefore,
I will use "this->read_memory (...)".


Cheers,
Shahab
