What function of gdbserver handle g_packet send from gdb

What function of gdbserver handle g_packet send from gdb

[fei ding]

Hi, guys:

I'm tracing "set architecture xxx" command when using gdb/gdbserver,
and I've noticed that, every time we use "set architecture xxx", gdb
will re-read the registers, and if we use gdbserver/gdb, gdb will use
"fetch_register_using_g()" function to get remote's regs, and I cannot
find the function in the source code of gdbserver, which receive and
process g_packet. I've check the "process_serial_event()" in
gdbserver/server.c, and it just take care the "info reg" command every
time. Could anybody help me?

Thanks.

BR.

See file gdbserver/server.c,
    function process_serial_event;
    case 'g'
