This is OK for the documentation part.

Thanks.

One small nit - for gdb/features/rx.c, I'd prefer to see a ChangeLog
comment saying that it's been generated.  I.e.

 	* gdb/features/rx.c: Generate.

The rest looks good to me.  If there are no other suggestions from
someone else, go ahead and commit it with that small tweak.

Kevin

OK.
This log will be fixed when I commit.

Hi Yoshinori,

I looked at the patch because I was curious about RX.  I found a few formatting nits that you might want to fix before pushing.

Use capital letters, "Delete.".

The old code (done by hand) did:

      append_flags_type_flag (tdep->rx_psw_type, 24, "IPL0");
      append_flags_type_flag (tdep->rx_psw_type, 25, "IPL1");
      append_flags_type_flag (tdep->rx_psw_type, 26, "IPL2");
      append_flags_type_flag (tdep->rx_psw_type, 27, "IPL3");

Is the result identical for the end user?

Declare `i` in the for loop.

Use !valid_p.

Missing space before parenthesis.

No.
Since this is a 4-bit value, the definition of target-description is correct,
but it is not good that it is not compatible.
Returns the same result as the previous definition.
