Dear Sourceware Team,

Hope this email finds you well.

When I'm reading the content in "
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Memory.html", I find a statement
for 'x/-3uh' command as: "You can also specify a negative repeat count to
examine memory backward from the given address. For example, ‘x/-3uh 0x54320’
prints three halfwords (h) at 0x54314, 0x54328, and 0x5431c." Should
0x54314 be 0x54324 instead? I don't know what machine word size would be
for this statement, and it gives me some hard time to understand. Could you
clear it for me?

Thanks,
-Zielnik Hu
