            Bug ID: 30571
           Summary: [gdb, riscv] Ensure instructions are always fetches as
                    LE
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: branislav.brzak at syrmia dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Currently riscv gdb code looks at arch byte order
when fetching instructions. This works when the
target is LE, but on BE arch it will byte swap the
instruction, while the riscv spec defines all
instructions are LE encoded regardless of
system memory endianess.

This is for a pending patch.
