This will take quite some time; the first thing to do is a proof of concept implementation in the toolchain, and then getting this added to the ARM ABI before it ships. Linaro intends to do this later this year, but work didn't start yet. These are our notes on the work to be done: https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/Specs/Binutils-STT_GNU_IFUNC we also plan to do a gold implementation, but that is more of a nice to have: https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain/Specs/GOLD-STT_GNU_IFUNC -- Loïc Minier _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
