Description Yao Qi 2016-10-24 10:01:50 UTC 
I see the following fail if I build GDBserver for aarch64_be-linux-gnu,


git/gdb/gdbserver/linux-aarch64-low.c:1539:39: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'uint32_t* {aka unsigned int*}' [-fpermissive]
       uint32_t *le_buf = xmalloc (byte_len);
Comment 1 Yao Qi 2016-10-24 10:03:06 UTC
