Hello, procfs.c uses gdbarch_address_to_pointer to convert a target address into a host address to be passed to the OS when setting watchpoints. This patch changes procfs_address_to_host_pointer to use the per-target architecture and its associated pointer types to perform that conversion. It also removes and unnecessary reference to builtin_type_void_data_ptr in procfs_auxv_parse. Bye, Ulrich ChangeLog: * procfs.c (procfs_address_to_host_pointer): Use target_gdbarch and its associated types to perform pointer conversion. (procfs_can_use_hw_breakpoint): Likewise. (procfs_auxv_parse): Remove unused variable.
