[PATCH v3] gdb/hppa: guess g packet size
Sven Schnelle

Mon Nov 10 21:07:17 GMT 2025
With qemu supporting 64 bit now, add some code to determine the
register size of a hppa remote target.
Signed-off-by: Sven Schnelle <svens@stackframe.org>
---
Changes in v3:
- adjust coding style
- default to 4 bytes and print a warning when target description
misses size attribute (or uses an unknown size)
Changes in v2:
- adjust coding style
- use target_desc_up, make it static
- use nullptr instead of NULL
