<h3 class="section">2.10 Relocations</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>BFD maintains relocations in much the same way it maintains
|
|
symbols: they are left alone until required, then read in
|
|
en-masse and translated into an internal form. A common
|
|
routine <code>bfd_perform_relocation</code> acts upon the
|
|
canonical form to do the fixup.
|
|
|
|
<p>Relocations are maintained on a per section basis,
|
|
while symbols are maintained on a per BFD basis.
|
|
|
|
<p>All that a back end has to do to fit the BFD interface is to create
|
|
a <code>struct reloc_cache_entry</code> for each relocation
|
|
in a particular section, and fill in the right bits of the structures.
