Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

  1. What version of Go are you using (go version)?
    go version devel +ff27421 Sun Feb 28 11:06:40 2016 +0000 darwin/amd64
  2. What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?
    GOARCH="amd64"
    GOBIN=""
    GOEXE=""
    GOHOSTARCH="amd64"
    GOHOSTOS="darwin"
    GOOS="darwin"
    GOPATH="/Users/hiro/.go"
    GORACE=""
    GOROOT="/Users/hiro/work/go"
    GOTOOLDIR="/Users/hiro/work/go/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64"
    CC="clang"
    GOGCCFLAGS="-fPIC -m64 -pthread -fno-caret-diagnostics -Qunused-arguments -fmessage-length=0 -gno-record-gcc-switches -fno-common"
    CXX="clang++"
    CGO_ENABLED="1"
  3. What did you do?
    (Use play.golang.org to provide a runnable example, if possible.)

$ CC="$(xcrun --sdk iphoneos --find clang) -arch armv7 -isysroot $(xcrun --sdk iphoneos --show-sdk-path)" GOARCH=arm go tool cgo -godefs input.go

input.go

package p

/*
typedef void * ptr;
*/
import "C"

type Ptr C.ptr
  1. What did you expect to see?
    No errors.
  2. What did you see instead?
unexpected: 8-byte pointer type - *void

XCode 7.2.1 (latest)

$(xcrun --sdk iphoneos --find clang) --version

Apple LLVM version 7.0.2 (clang-700.1.81)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin15.3.0
Thread model: posix

Thank you.

Your C compiler seems to be generating debug info that says that the size of the type "void*" is 8 bytes. cgo is complaining because you set GOARCH=arm, so cgo expects 4 byte pointers.

Look closely at the compiler in

CC="$(xcrun --sdk iphoneos --find clang) -arch armv7 -isysroot $(xcrun --sdk iphoneos --show-sdk-path)"

Are you sure that compiler will generate 32-bit ARM code? (I don't know who XCode works myself).

You may want to run cgo with -debug-gcc to see precisely how cgo is invoking the compiler.

It helps me.

I guess I understand the problem.

$ CC="foo bar" go env CC

foo

Is this work as intended?

CXX has same problem.

Yes. But is this desirable behavior?

No, it's not. But the cgo tool does provide another way to specify compiler options, so it's not urgent.
