[LLVMdev] [MC] [llvm-mc] Getting target specific information to <target>ELFObjectWriter
...eaders e_flags extensively. The most pressing issue is the need to post the relocation model such as PIC, CPIC or non-shared. The object method that allows me to update the e_flags at the target level, <target>ELFObjectWriter::getEFlags(), had no access to any target specific information . MipsELFObjectWriter is created during MipsAsmBackend construction which is create during an invocation of createMipsAsmBackend(). create<target>AsmBackend is called by: the codegen (integrated assembler) llvm-mc (standalone assembler) clang (cc1as_main.cpp) My solution for getting access of target specif...

[LLVMdev] [MC] [llvm-mc] Getting target specific information to <target>ELFObjectWriter
Older targets like Mips had/have assemblers and ABIs that carry a lot of baggage. The small bit of baggage that is giving me fits is that MipsELFObjectWriter needs to know the relocation model (static,pic,cpic), whether we are using xgot (-mgot), which abi (old,new), which architecture (32r[123],64[123]), which if any coprocessor or extention instructions are used (mips16,micromips,etc.). I shouldn't have to muck with base classes to handle esoteri...

In MC/MCStreamer.cpp MCStreamer::EmitGpRel32Value() Figure out how to mark it with the imprint of FK_GPRel_4 In MC/ELFObjectWriter.cpp MipsELFObjectWriter::GetRelocType() Add a switch case for FK_GPRel_4 to put out the correct target specific relocation. Is that correct? Did I miss anything? Thanks, Jack

...ions in the correct order: 1. Add a target hook MCELFObjectTargetWriter::ReorderRelocs. The default behavior sorts the relocations by the r_offset. 2. Move struct ELFRelocationEntry from ELFObjectWriter to MCELFObjectTargetWriter and add member fixup to it. The overridden version of ReorderRelocs (MipsELFObjectWriter::ReorderRelocs) needs access to ELFRelocationEntry::Type and MCFixup::Value to reorder the relocations. Do you think these changes are acceptable? On Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 3:50 PM, Jim Grosbach <grosbach at apple.com> wrote: > Hi Akira, > > If I follow correctly, the relocation entr...

Well Jim, that may just be my problem. As background I am working on the outer reaches of llvm for the direct object output for Mips. Part of what I am to do is instruct the folks working closer to the backend what I am getting that is incorrect. My first reaction is to assume that I am being fed things the correct way and that I am not handling it correctly. I feed the compiler a source file

[LLVMdev] Sorting relocation entries
Hi Akira, If I follow correctly, the relocation entries can thus be in a different order than the instructions that they're for? That seems a bit odd, but I suppose there's nothing inherently wrong with that. It's just not something, AFAIK, that llvm has had to deal with before. This should definitely be a target-specific thing, not a general ELFObjectWriter thing, as other targets

[LLVMdev] Sorting relocation entries
What would be the best way to sort relocation entries before they are written out in ELFObjectWriter::WriteRelocationsFragment? According to the Mips ABI documents I have, there are certain restrictions on the order relocations appear in the table (e.g. R_MIPS_HI16 and R_MIPS_GOT16 must be followed immediately by a R_MIPS_LO16). When I enable post RA scheduling, some of the restrictions are
