<h4 class="subsubsection">9.4.2.4 ARM relocation generation</h4>
|
|
<a name="index-data-relocations_002c-ARM"></a>
|
<a name="index-ARM-data-relocations"></a>
|
<p>Specific data relocations can be generated by putting the relocation name
|
in parentheses after the symbol name. For example:
|
</p>
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
<pre class="smallexample"> .word foo(TARGET1)
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p>This will generate an ‘<samp>R_ARM_TARGET1</samp>’ relocation against the symbol
|
<var>foo</var>.
|
The following relocations are supported:
|
<code>GOT</code>,
|
<code>GOTOFF</code>,
|
<code>TARGET1</code>,
|
<code>TARGET2</code>,
|
<code>SBREL</code>,
|
<code>TLSGD</code>,
|
<code>TLSLDM</code>,
|
<code>TLSLDO</code>,
|
<code>TLSDESC</code>,
|
<code>TLSCALL</code>,
|
<code>GOTTPOFF</code>,
|
<code>GOT_PREL</code>
|
and
|
<code>TPOFF</code>.
|
</p>
|
<p>For compatibility with older toolchains the assembler also accepts
|
<code>(PLT)</code> after branch targets. On legacy targets this will
|
generate the deprecated ‘<samp>R_ARM_PLT32</samp>’ relocation. On EABI
|
targets it will encode either the ‘<samp>R_ARM_CALL</samp>’ or
|
‘<samp>R_ARM_JUMP24</samp>’ relocation, as appropriate.
|
</p>
|
<a name="index-MOVW-and-MOVT-relocations_002c-ARM"></a>
|
<p>Relocations for ‘<samp>MOVW</samp>’ and ‘<samp>MOVT</samp>’ instructions can be generated
|
by prefixing the value with ‘<samp>#:lower16:</samp>’ and ‘<samp>#:upper16</samp>’
|
respectively. For example to load the 32-bit address of foo into r0:
|
</p>
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
<pre class="smallexample"> MOVW r0, #:lower16:foo
|
MOVT r0, #:upper16:foo
|
</pre></div>
|
|
<p>Relocations ‘<samp>R_ARM_THM_ALU_ABS_G0_NC</samp>’, ‘<samp>R_ARM_THM_ALU_ABS_G1_NC</samp>’,
|
‘<samp>R_ARM_THM_ALU_ABS_G2_NC</samp>’ and ‘<samp>R_ARM_THM_ALU_ABS_G3_NC</samp>’ can be
|
generated by prefixing the value with ‘<samp>#:lower0_7:#</samp>’,
|
‘<samp>#:lower8_15:#</samp>’, ‘<samp>#:upper0_7:#</samp>’ and ‘<samp>#:upper8_15:#</samp>’
|
respectively. For example to load the 32-bit address of foo into r0:
|
</p>
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
<pre class="smallexample"> MOVS r0, #:upper8_15:#foo
|
LSLS r0, r0, #8
|
ADDS r0, #:upper0_7:#foo
|
LSLS r0, r0, #8
|
ADDS r0, #:lower8_15:#foo
|
LSLS r0, r0, #8
|
ADDS r0, #:lower0_7:#foo
|
</pre></div>
