That is weird !

The halt, step, resume and bp handling should be there.

The patches and files  that was submitted to the list 07/08/2009 (with 
copies to Dirk) contains cortex_a8.c/h with  working  
halt/step/resume/bp implementations. Of course there might be bugs but 
they were tested on my Flyswatter/Begle system. I also had no special 
problems  with "invalid mode value encountered" when debugging UBoot or 
code loaded into RAM after starting up the Beagleboard to UBoot.

No reset functions were implemented.

My suggestion was to make a complete replacement of the old cortex_a8 
files with the new ones,  commit this, test and only then then do the 
cleanups and larger rewrites. The old code never worked and is not worth 
preserving, not even as a baseline.

Happy hacking,
Magnus
