I'm not an expert, but this is just copied and pasted from the gentoo
handbook:
The CHOST variable declares the target build host for your system. This
variable should already be set to the correct value. Do not edit it as
that might break your system. If the CHOST variable does not look
correct to you, you might be using the wrong stage3 tarball.
Cheers, Matthias
