Try http://docs.sgi.com You start by searching for ABI, but there may also be other docs you want to look at. There may also be relevant documentation available from MIPS. Try them also. http://www.mips.com and then hunt around for documentation. You can find good info on calling conventions in these places, but you aren't going to find good info on low level stuff like object file formats. For that, you will probably need to read code. You have two basic choices here. 1) Buy an SGI Irix5 and/or Irix6 machine, and start reading header files in /usr/include. Irix5 has ECOFF and ELF o32 support. Irix6 has ELF o32, n32, and n64 support. 2) Start reading the MIPS bfd support in GNU binutils. jcr is a gcc feature for java. Something like "java class record". It should be safe to ignore it unless you are using java. This isn't MIPS specific. pdr is procedure descriptor record. It is a left over from the SGI Irix5 ECOFF days, which SGI carried forward into their ELF implementation, and which was copied by the GNU and linux tools. For MIPS.stubs, that one I didn't know, I had to look it up. The bfd comments say it is for dynamic linking, so that function pointer comparisons work correctly for functions defined in shared libraries. -- Jim Wilson, GNU Tools Support, http://www.specifix.com
