Summary

It's started with simple program:

#ifdef i386
#warning this is i386
#else
#warning this is NOT i386
#endif

#ifdef x86_64
#warning this is x86_64
#else
#warning this is NOT x86_64
#endif

#ifdef aarch64
#warning this is aarch64
#else
#warning this is NOT aarch64
#endif

#ifdef arm64
#warning this is arm64
#else
#warning this is NOT arm64
#endif

#ifdef arm
#warning this is arm
#else
#warning this is NOT arm
#endif

When cross-compiling on Linux for AArch64 using Linaro toolchain, the pre-processor produces following output:
$ aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc-4.8.2 -Wall -c aarch64.c
aarch64.c:4:2: warning: #warning this is NOT i386 [-Wcpp]
#warning this is NOT i386

^

aarch64.c:10:2: warning: #warning this is NOT x86_64 [-Wcpp]
#warning this is NOT x86_64

^

aarch64.c:14:2: warning: #warning this is aarch64 [-Wcpp]
#warning this is aarch64

^

aarch64.c:22:2: warning: #warning this is NOT arm64 [-Wcpp]
#warning this is NOT arm64

^

aarch64.c:28:2: warning: #warning this is NOT arm [-Wcpp]
#warning this is NOT arm

^

I expect that other cross-compilers define arm64 instead of aarch64 (or both), so there's my patch that causes checking for both. This is all-or-nothing approach, I did not try to investigate whether any of the parts of affected code are compiled on Linux or MacOSX - I altered all places where arm64 was used.
Before applying, it's worth to try if it still builds for ARM64 on MacOSX.

Hey Paul,

Are you attempting to build debugserver over there on the linaro Linux build? If so, you will definitely find it easier going the lldb-gdbserver route (in fact I will be working on this as well). Apple will be moving over to lldb-gdbserver as well, so I think it will be wasted energy trying to get RNB* and debugserver files building over there. It's all way Apple-specific.

Looks good. I'll check in shortly.

Hey Todd,

That's the plan. This patch is a merely step towards this - it just clears
all the confusion caused by this double naming used by different
toolchains.
