Re: [RFA] info breakpoints: handle 64-bit addresses

[Ed Satterthwaite <ehs@sibyte.com>]

As written, this patch has a slightly unfortunate side effect for MIPS
targets.

In the code below, b->address is a CORE_ADDR, which is 64 bits when
gdb is configured to support 64-bit MIPS targets.  TARGET_ADDR_BIT is
implicitly set in mips-tdep.c according to the ABI deduced from the
object file.  For 32-bit or unknown ABI's, that will be 32.  In the
MIPS architecture, a 64-bit CPU sign-extends 32-bit addresses.

At least on some hosts, the output conversion is done by sprintf.
Thus 32-bit addresses with bit 31 clear will print as 8 hex digits,
while those with bit 31 set (e.g., kseg0 and kseg1) will spill into 16
hex digits, thereby spoiling the intended column alignment.

Here's a possible alternative for the first arm of the new
conditional.  It's similar to usage in mips-tdep.c.  It avoids the
cast to unsigned long in the original code but does assume ANSI C.

   tmp = longest_local_hex_string_custom ((b->address
                                           & (CORE_ADDR) 0xffffffff),
                                          "08l");
