When a 64-bits (x86-64) gdbarch is created, it is first born as a 32-bits gdbarch in i386_gdbarch_init. The call gdbarch_init_osabi will call the handler register for the selected (arch, osabi) pair, such as amd64_linux_init_abi. The various amd64 handlers call amd64_init_abi, which turns the gdbarch into a 64-bits one. When selecting the i386:x86-64 architecture with no osabi, no such handler is ever called, so the gdbarch stays (wrongfully) a 32-bits one. My first idea was to manually call amd64_init_abi & al in i386_gdbarch_init when the osabi is GDB_OSABI_NONE. However, this doesn't work in a build of GDB where i386 is included as a target but not amd64. My next option (implemented in this patch), is to allow registering handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE. I added two such handlers in amd64-tdep.c, so now it works the same as for the "normal" osabis. It required re-ordering things in gdbarch_init_osabi to allow running handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE. Without this patch applied (but with the previous one*) : (gdb) set osabi none (gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64 The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64 (gdb) p sizeof(void*) $1 = 4 and now: (gdb) set osabi none (gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64 The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64 (gdb) p sizeof(void*) $1 = 8 * Before the previous patch, which fixed "set osabi none", this bug was hidden because we didn't actually try to generate a gdbarch for no osabi, it would always fall back on Linux. Generating the gdbarch for amd64/linux did work. gdb/ChangeLog: PR gdb/22979 * amd64-tdep.c (amd64_none_init_abi): New function. (amd64_x32_none_init_abi): New function.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
