Hi
'Break' instruction does not work for mips32 and mips16 targets in a
user program (asm file). When I try to execute 'break'instruction, the
control does not proceed, again and again the same instruction 'break'
executes and also I don't get any break point exception.
Is it any known bug in GDB?
Regards
Monika Chaddha

This behavior is to be expected. Since GDB didn't insert the breakpoint
it has no reason to remove/skip it.
You can set:
handle SIGTRAP pass noprint nostop
and GDB will pass such traps back to the inferior, however, no guarantee
on what happens next.
