<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The main thing we need to fix is that the selection between ELF32/ELF64 needs to depend on the ABI being N64 and not on whether we used a
<span class="SpellE">mips</span>-<span class="SpellE">linux</span>-gnu triple versus a mips64-linux-gnu triple. So 'clang -target mips-linux-gnu' -mips64r2 -mabi=64' should produce an ELF64 and 'clang -target mips64-linux-gnu -mips32r2 -mabi=32' should produce
an ELF32. In terms of code, we need to get the ABI name to createMipsELFObjectWriter().<br>

week when Vladimir and I were discussing this internally (I've been off sick so I only saw your commit last night). I haven't had chance to try this but I'm currently thinking that createMCAsmBackend() should have an LLVMTargetMachine* argument. The Mips-specific
versions of this function can then get the ABI name from there and pass it down to createMipsELFObjectWriter().<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="">You can't really get there from here is the short answer. You can possible get MCTargetOptions, but then you need to change all of the constructors and calls across all of the backends to do this.<br>

I fixed all of the things that are currently in tree - what are you seeing or what do you need migrated around?</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style=""><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"; color:black">Hi all,<br>
we have several features in Mips that are dependent on target abi. A recent commit(r224492) introduced a new -target-abi option to TargetOptions struct that provides access to abi string. This info is stored in MCSubtarget class(ARMSubratget in this case) and
distributed to other libraries. Unfortunately, for Mips we need this info in other classes that don't have access to MCSubtarget class, like MCAsmBackend and MCTargetStreamer and instantiating a new copy od TargetOption causes link errors as it is already
instantiated in some drivers(llc.cpp for example). What would be the proper way to get the TargetOptions struct available in other classes?<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Vladimir</span></span></p>
