commit d63167affc2a56189e3ba2cc47dd9a3451208b59 Author: Ulrich Weigand Date: Tue Feb 4 18:26:26 2014 +0100 PowerPC64 little-endian fixes: structure passing When passing a small structure in a GPR, the ABI specifies that it should be passed in the least-significant bytes of the register (or stack slot). On big-endian systems, this means the value needs to be stored at an offset, which is what current code does. However, on little-endian systems, the least-significant bytes are addresses with offset 0. This patch fixes that. gdb/ChangeLog: * ppc-sysv-tdep.c (ppc64_sysv_abi_push_val): Use correct offset on little-endian when passing small structures.
