[PATCH] D52050: [Driver] Fix architecture triplets and search paths for Linux x32

hvdijk added a comment.

I've been able to check what Ubuntu 20.10 offers in terms of x32 support. Its kernel supports x32 binaries, it provides x32 versions of core system libraries in separate packages (e.g. libc6-x32, libx32stdc++6, libx32z1), and it provides a compiler that targets x32 by default (gcc-x86-64-linux-gnux32). These Ubuntu packages do not use the Debian/Ubuntu multiarch approach: the packages are completely independent of the corresponding x64 and i386 versions with separate names, and nothing in Ubuntu installs any libraries into any /lib/x86_64-linux-gnux32-like path. They are intended to allow x32 cross compilation on an Ubuntu system, not intended to act as a basis for running an x32 Ubuntu system. This appears to be very different from Debian's x32 support. That said, cross-compiled binaries do run on Ubuntu and it should be possible to build an x32-native LLVM with the Ubuntu-provided toolchain.
