Hi Thank you for your support,Any suggestions on how can we make all function calls via GOT rather than "bl". Vivek Tyagi On 3/31/07, Paul Brook <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

Sure it can. The dynamic loader doesn't need to know or care about the plt. It's produced entirely by the static linker. > now the object files would be linked as > arm-elf-gcc exe.o -Wl,-R,shared-lib.o Relying on ld -R to build sounds like a fairly bad idea. Also, as you're designing something new, you really should make it EABI based (http://www.arm.com/products/DevTools/ABI.html). That describes a model for generating ELF images, and using a postlinker to generate target binaries (Probably bFLT in this case). Paul
