int bfd_get_arch_size (bfd *abfd);
DESCRIPTION
- Returns the architecture address size, in bits, as determined
- by the object file's format. For ELF, this information is
- included in the header.
+ Returns the normalized architecture address size, in bits, as
+ determined by the object file's format. By normalized, we mean
+ either 32 or 64. For ELF, this information is included in the
+ header. Use bfd_arch_bits_per_address for number of bits in
+ the architecture address.
RETURNS
Returns the arch size in bits if known, <<-1>> otherwise.
