Is chroot still necessary to build 32-bit chromium under Linux

[Shanfeng Cheng]

Previously, when I was using the GYP building system, I had to use chroot and the precise32 command to build 32-bit Chromium. After I update to m55, I found precise32 is no longer able to build Chromium. Instead, I can get a 32-bit binary to be built by not using chroot. Therefore, I'd to confirm if the chroot is no longer required to build 32-bit binary under Linux.

That is correct, a chroot is no longer required.

Do we need run "gclient runhooks" each time we switch between 32-bit and 64-bit building?

The 64-bit and 32-bit sysroots are both installed by default, so you don't need to re-run gclient runhooks when switching.

Thanks for confirming. That was my guess.
