I would like to know how it is possible to know the current system architecture in GDB and store this information into a variable for later evaluation.
Something like:
set variable $x=`shell uname -m`

theres 2 ways:
the older way:
(gdb) shell echo set \$x=\"$(uname -m)\" >/tmp/foo.gdb
(gdb) source /tmp/foo.gdb
newer with python:
(gdb) python gdb.execute("set $y=\"" + os.uname()[4] + "\"")

@hellow I don't believe so, but not positive, however there is this patch, most recently updated yesterday, which is undergoing review, try it out! sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-05/msg00130.html
