21 /* All i80960 development is done in a CROSS-DEVELOPMENT environment. I.e.,
22 object code is generated on, and executed under the direction of a symbolic
23 debugger running on, a host system. We do not want to be subject to the
24 vagaries of which host it is or whether it supports COFF or a.out format,
25 or anything else. We DO want to:
27 o always generate the same format object files, regardless of host.
29 o have an 'a.out' header that we can modify for our own purposes
30 (the 80960 is typically an embedded processor and may require
31 enhanced linker support that the normal a.out.h header can't
32 accommodate).
34 As for byte-ordering, the following rules apply:
36 o Text and data that is actually downloaded to the target is always
37 in i80960 (little-endian) order.
39 o All other numbers (in the header, symbols, relocation directives)
40 are in host byte-order: object files CANNOT be lifted from a
41 little-end host and used on a big-endian (or vice versa) without
42 modification.
43 ==> THIS IS NO LONGER TRUE USING BFD. WE CAN GENERATE ANY BYTE ORDER
44 FOR THE HEADER, AND READ ANY BYTE ORDER. PREFERENCE WOULD BE TO
45 USE LITTLE-ENDIAN BYTE ORDER THROUGHOUT, REGARDLESS OF HOST. <==
47 o The downloader ('comm960') takes care to generate a pseudo-header
48 with correct (i80960) byte-ordering before shipping text and data
49 off to the NINDY monitor in the target systems. Symbols and
50 relocation info are never sent to the target. */

134 /* MEANING OF 'n_other'
136 If non-zero, the 'n_other' fields indicates either a leaf procedure or
137 a system procedure, as follows:
139 1 <= n_other <= 32 :
140 The symbol is the entry point to a system procedure.
141 'n_value' is the address of the entry, as for any other
142 procedure. The system procedure number (which can be used in
143 a 'calls' instruction) is (n_other-1). These entries come from
144 '.sysproc' directives.
146 n_other == N_CALLNAME
147 the symbol is the 'call' entry point to a leaf procedure.
148 The *next* symbol in the symbol table must be the corresponding
149 'bal' entry point to the procedure (see following). These
150 entries come from '.leafproc' directives in which two different
151 symbols are specified (the first one is represented here).
154 n_other == N_BALNAME
155 the symbol is the 'bal' entry point to a leaf procedure.
156 These entries result from '.leafproc' directives in which only
157 one symbol is specified, or in which the same symbol is
158 specified twice.
160 Note that an N_CALLNAME entry *must* have a corresponding N_BALNAME entry,
161 but not every N_BALNAME entry must have an N_CALLNAME entry. */
