No, due to ABI constraints, right? I did a user-emulation smoke build, no failure, did I miss something?

Given TARGET_AARCH64 will be set on a combined build, I'm not sure what is the fix? r~

Do your comments mean: * this patchset is OK for system emulation but we should (later) think also about user-mode ? * this patchset has a problem with user-mode so it needs rethinking ? * something else ? thanks -- PMM

I'm confused about what this patch set improves. It doesn't remove ifdefs; they're still there in gdbstub.c. The code that handles aarch64 is now in gdbstub instead of segregated into gdbstub64.c, so we have one larger file for no obvious benefit. Was there some other build problem that I missed? Because I don't see how it advances the stated goal of "a single ARM/AArch64 binary". r~
