122 On a SPARC, the table is composed of 12 byte entries, each of
123 which consists of three instructions. The first entry is
124 sethi %hi(0),%g1
125 jmp %g1
127 These instructions are changed by ld.so into a jump directly into
128 ld.so itself. Each subsequent entry is
129 save %sp, -96, %sp
130 call <address of first entry in procedure linkage table>
131 <reloc_number | 0x01000000>
132 The reloc_number is the number of the reloc to use to resolve
133 this entry. The reloc will be a JMP_SLOT reloc against some
134 symbol that is not defined in this object file but should be
135 defined in a shared object (if it is not, ld.so will report a
136 runtime error and exit). The constant 0x010000000 turns the
137 reloc number into a sethi of %g0, which does nothing since %g0 is
138 hardwired to zero.
140 When one of these entries is executed, it winds up calling into
141 ld.so. ld.so looks at the reloc number, available via the return
142 address, to determine which entry this is. It then looks at the
143 reloc and patches up the entry in the table into a sethi and jmp
144 to the real address followed by a nop. This means that the reloc
145 lookup only has to happen once, and it also means that the
146 relocation only needs to be done if the function is actually
147 called. The relocation is expensive because ld.so must look up
148 the symbol by name.

151 field. */

162 roughly the same number of entries as there are dynamic symbols;
163 I think the only way to get the exact size is to assume that
164 every byte from ld_hash to ld_stab is devoted to the hash table.
166 Each entry in the hash table is eight bytes. The first four
167 bytes are a symbol index into the dynamic symbols. The second
168 four bytes are the index of the next hash table entry in the
169 bucket. The ld_buckets field gives the number of buckets, say B.
170 The first B entries in the hash table each start a bucket which
171 is chained through the second four bytes of each entry. A value
172 of zero ends the chain.
174 The hash function is simply
175 h = 0;
176 while (*string != '\0')
177 h = (h << 1) + *string++;
178 h &= 0x7fffffff;
180 To look up a symbol, compute the hash value of the name. Take
181 the modulos of hash value and the number of buckets. Start at
182 that entry in the hash table. See if the symbol (from the first
183 four bytes of the hash table entry) has the name you are looking
184 for. If not, use the chain field (the second four bytes of the
185 hash table entry) to move on to the next entry in this bucket.
186 If the chain field is zero you have reached the end of the
187 bucket, and the symbol is not in the hash table. */
