Subject: [PATCH] tilegx-tdep: Correct aliasing errors in `tilegx_analyze_prologue'
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2016 15:18:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1610150200220.31859@tp.orcam.me.uk> (raw)

Fix a load of aliasing build errors:

make[1]: *** [tilegx-tdep.o] Error 1

from an attempt to cast a `long long' pointer to an `int64_t' pointer, 
which may not necessarily be compatible types.  Use the `long long' type 
for the auxiliary variable then as this is the type of the structure 
member referred.

	gdb/
	* tilegx-tdep.c (tilegx_analyze_prologue): Use the `long long' 
	type for `operands'.

Hi,

 This was discovered in an `--enable-targets=all' `mips-mti-linux-gnu' 
build and may be dependent on the host type and compiler version, which 
are `x86_64-linux' and 4.4.7 here, respectively.  OK to apply?

  Maciej
