Hi, Bernie, Thanks for your reply! However, I still have problem by following edk2's code, my test code is attached, what I want to do is build it as a dynamic lib. But I get error from ld: ld: illegal text-relocation to _data_table in table.o from foo in use_table.o for architecture armv7 Do you have any suggestion to solve this? Thanks! //==begin table.c== int data_table[] = {0xff, 0xff}; //==end table.c== //==begin use_table.s == .text .syntax unified .align 4 .global foo .thum...

Hi Ashi, > ld: illegal text-relocation to _data_table in table.o from foo in > use_table.o for architecture armv7 It looks like you're using iOS. I'm not familiar with the exact workings of that platform, but I think a similar message would occur in ELF-land. If iOS *is* comparable, your issue is that symbols in dynamically loaded objects...

Hi Ashi, Your first LDR is a pseudoinstruction that is supported by some tools (gas and armasm, at least), but not by LLVM. Roughly speaking, it turns into a PC-relative load from a literal pool. To do what you're trying to achieve you can write your own literal pool in your assembly. You can see some examples of this sort of thing at

...all if you swap the pop and the .long. Bernie, is it related to ARM pipeline? I'm interesting in this, is there any other additional information?
