- Hi,
-
- I am wondering how the gp (global pointer) value on a mips is calculated.
- It seems to me this value is set by linker/loader using some info from
- ultrix OS or some conventional and fixed value. It will be very appreciated
- if you can tell me the story or at least point me to some documentation.
-
- Thanks in advance.
