gdb manual: Remove references to deleted targets
Support for target dbug/picobug/dink32/m32r/mon2000/ppcbug was just removed, but support for ARM RDI, Sparclet, Sparclite, Z8000, target r3900, target array, target sds, target op50n and target w89k had already been removed many years ago. Drop it all in one go. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: 2015-08-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.texinfo (Embedded Processors) <ARM>: Remove references to RDI. <M32R>: Remove references to M32R/D. <M68K>: Remove references to target dbug. <MIPS Embedded>: Remove references to target r3900 and target array. <PowerPC Embedded>: Remove references to target dink32 and target ppcbug, target sds <PA, Sparclet, Sparclite, Z8000>: Delete nodes.

-
-@cindex download to Sparclet
-Once connected to the Sparclet target,
-you can use the @value{GDBN}
-@code{load} command to download the file from the host to the target.
-The file name and load offset should be given as arguments to the @code{load}
-command.
-Since the file format is aout, the program must be loaded to the starting
-address. You can use @code{objdump} to find out what this value is. The load
-offset is an offset which is added to the VMA (virtual memory address)
-of each of the file's sections.
-For instance, if the program
-@file{prog} was linked to text address 0x1201000, with data at 0x12010160
-and bss at 0x12010170, in @value{GDBN}, type:
-
-@smallexample
-(gdbslet) load prog 0x12010000
-Loading section .text, size 0xdb0 vma 0x12010000
-@end smallexample
-
-If the code is loaded at a different address then what the program was linked
-to, you may need to use the @code{section} and @code{add-symbol-file} commands
-to tell @value{GDBN} where to map the symbol table.

-
-For the Z8000 family, @samp{target sim} simulates either the Z8002 (the

-@end table
-
-@noindent
-After specifying this target, you can debug programs for the simulated
-CPU in the same style as programs for your host computer; use the
-@code{file} command to load a new program image, the @code{run} command
-to run your program, and so on.
-
-As well as making available all the usual machine registers
-(@pxref{Registers, ,Registers}), the Z8000 simulator provides three
-additional items of information as specially named registers:
-
-@table @code
-
-@item cycles
-Counts clock-ticks in the simulator.
-
-@item insts
-Counts instructions run in the simulator.
-
-@item time
-Execution time in 60ths of a second.
-
-@end table
-
-You can refer to these values in @value{GDBN} expressions with the usual
-conventions; for example, @w{@samp{b fputc if $cycles>5000}} sets a
-conditional breakpoint that suspends only after at least 5000
-simulated clock ticks.
