The following are the most significant peculiarities of MIPS target:
- MIPS ABI requires some special tags in the dynamic table.
- GOT consists of two parts local and global. The local part contains
entries refer locally visible symbols. The global part contains entries
refer global symbols.
- Entries in the .dynsym section which have corresponded entries in the
GOT should be:
* Emitted at the end of .dynsym section
* Sorted accordingly to theirs GOT counterparts
- There are "paired" relocations. One or more R_MIPS_HI16 and R_MIPS_GOT16
relocations should be followed by R_MIPS_LO16 relocation. To calculate
result of R_MIPS_HI16 and R_MIPS_GOT16 relocations we need to combine
addends from these relocations and paired R_MIPS_LO16 relocation.
