Subject: Identifying PowerPC architecture
Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2007 20:47:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45A6A23F.3000605@eagercon.com> (raw)

I'm looking at how gdb decides which arch/mach it is
working with for PowerPC.  It looks like it always picks up
rs6000:6000 as processor type.

When rs6000_gdbarch_init(struct gdbarch_info info,
struct gdbarch_list *arches) is called, arches is NULL.
As a result, it creates up a default arch/mach based on
info.bfd_arch_info.

The arches data is initialized by gdbarch_register() whichs
sets gdbarch_registry[*]->arches to NULL and I don't see
anywhere that this is changed to point to a list of valid
arches.

Am I missing something somewhere?  How is this supposed to work?
