In the relocation section ".rela.rodata" of each .o file compiled with
LoongArch toolchain, there are various symbol types such as STT_NOTYPE,
STT_OBJECT, STT_FUNC in addition to the usual STT_SECTION, it needs to
use reloc symbol offset instead of reloc addend to find the destination
instruction in find_jump_table() and add_jump_table().
This is preparation for later patch on LoongArch, there is no effect for
the other archs with this patch.

The comments don't seem helpful.
In the case of STT_SECTION, sym->offset is always zero. Therefore the
if-else can be converted to a simple unconditional statement:
offset = reloc->sym->offset + reloc_addend(reloc);
'prev_offset' needs to be updated as well.

Will remove it.

OK, let me test it.

I am not sure I understand your comment correctly, I can not see
what should to do about 'prev_offset'.

OK, will do it.

Further down the function there is prev_offset = reloc_offset(reloc); which needs to be changed to prev_offset = offset; as part of the patch. -- Josh

If I understand correctly, reloc_offset(reloc) is different with reloc->sym->offset + reloc_addend(reloc), tested on x86 and readelf shows that their values are different, reloc_offset(reloc) is the first column of .rela.rodata, reloc->sym->offset is the second to last column of .rela.rodata, reloc_addend(reloc) is the last column of .rela.rodata. If do the above change as you suggested, there will be some objtool warnings on x86. I think it should be: prev_offset = reloc_offset(reloc); rather than: prev_offset = offset; That is to say, no need to change "prev_offset". Could you please check it again, please let me know if I am wrong. Thanks, Tiezhu

Sorry, I was confused by the fact there are two different meanings for "offset": one for where the relocation is written, and one for the symbol it refers to. How about instead of 'offset', call it 'sym_offset'? -- Josh

OK, looks better, will modify it in the next version.
