binutils: Selecting the Target System

1 18 Selecting the Target System
1 ******************************
1 
1 You can specify two aspects of the target system to the GNU binary file
1 utilities, each in several ways:
1 
1    * the target
1 
1    * the architecture
1 
1    In the following summaries, the lists of ways to specify values are
1 in order of decreasing precedence.  The ways listed first override those
1 listed later.
1 
1    The commands to list valid values only list the values for which the
1 programs you are running were configured.  If they were configured with
1 '--enable-targets=all', the commands list most of the available values,
1 but a few are left out; not all targets can be configured in at once
1 because some of them can only be configured "native" (on hosts with the
1 same type as the target system).
