SPARC: Relocation Entries

On the SPARC platform, relocation entries apply to bytes (byte8), half-words (half16), words (word32), and extended-words (xword64).


SPARC basic relocation entries.

The dispn family of relocation fields (disp19, disp22, disp30) are word-aligned, sign-extended, PC-relative displacements. All encode a value with its least significant bit in position 0 of the word, and differ only in the number of bits allocated to the value.

The d2/disp8 and d2/disp14 variants encode 16 and 10-bit displacement values using two non-contiguous bit fields, d2, and dispn .

The immn family of relocation fields (imm5, imm6, imm7, imm10, imm13, imm22) represent unsigned integer constants. All encode a value with its least significant bit in position 0 of the word, and differ only in the number of bits allocated to the value.

The simmn family of relocation fields (simm10, simm11, simm13, simm22) represent signed integer constants. All encode a value with its least significant bit in position 0 of the word, and differ only in the number of bits allocated to the value.
