[llvm-commits] [Mips] direct object generation patch request

[Carter, Jack]

DO_relsym.patch

Contributers: Akira Hatanaka

Relocation against a symbol, instead of against section. We had some extreme test cases where there were a lot of relocations applied relative to a large rodata section. Gas would create a symbol for each of these whereas we would be relative to the beginning of the rodata section. This change mimics what gas does.
This is a direct object only change
