<p>The mmo object format is used exclusively together with Professor
|
|
Donald E. Knuth's educational 64-bit processor MMIX. The simulator
|
|
<span class="command">mmix</span> which is available at
|
|
<a href="http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs/mmix.tar.gz">http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs/mmix.tar.gz</a>
|
|
understands this format. That package also includes a combined
|
|
assembler and linker called <span class="command">mmixal</span>. The mmo format has
|
|
no advantages feature-wise compared to e.g. ELF. It is a simple
|
|
non-relocatable object format with no support for archives or
|
|
debugging information, except for symbol value information and
|
|
line numbers (which is not yet implemented in BFD). See
|
|
<a href="http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/mmix.html">http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/mmix.html</a> for more
|
|
information about MMIX. The ELF format is used for intermediate
|
|
object files in the BFD implementation.
