I think that's (somewhat?) expected. When you're not cross compiling, cmake explicitly sets `CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR` to `CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR`, ignoring whatever you set manually. (Dunno if it would make any difference if you'd set it in a toolchain file.) Only if you're cross compiling (which CMake defines as if you're setting `CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME`, regardless if cross compiling from Linux to Linux on another arch), it doesn't set it and passes whatever you set originally through. This actually makes `CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR` a bit problematic; if you're on x86_64 but targeting i386, or on aarch64 but targeting arm, you might not want to consider it a cross build (as you can execute the build products) but CMake then will hide whatever you're really targeting with the info gathered from the host environment. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/78959 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
