-The trace file comes in three parts: a header, a textual description
-section, and a trace frame section with binary data.
-
-The header has the form @code{\x7fTRACE0\n}. The first byte is
-@code{0x7f} so as to indicate that the file contains binary data,
-while the @code{0} is a version number that may have different values
-in the future.
-
-The description section consists of multiple lines of @sc{ascii} text
-separated by newline characters (@code{0xa}). The lines may include a
-variety of optional descriptive or context-setting information, such
-as tracepoint definitions or register set size. @value{GDBN} will
-ignore any line that it does not recognize. An empty line marks the end
-of this section.
-
-@c FIXME add some specific types of data
-
-The trace frame section consists of a number of consecutive frames.
-Each frame begins with a two-byte tracepoint number, followed by a
-four-byte size giving the amount of data in the frame. The data in
-the frame consists of a number of blocks, each introduced by a
-character indicating its type (at least register, memory, and trace
-state variable). The data in this section is raw binary, not a
-hexadecimal or other encoding; its endianness matches the target's
-endianness.

-@table @code
-@item R @var{bytes}
-Register block. The number and ordering of bytes matches that of a
-@code{g} packet in the remote protocol. Note that these are the
-actual bytes, in target order and @value{GDBN} register order, not a
-hexadecimal encoding.
-
-@item M @var{address} @var{length} @var{bytes}...
-Memory block. This is a contiguous block of memory, at the 8-byte
-address @var{address}, with a 2-byte length @var{length}, followed by
-@var{length} bytes.
