Hi ML,

in my code (for now a stupid SMI interface) I'm using a jump table like this:

struct reg:{
        callback_1 c1,
        callback_2 c2,
        ...
};

struct reg mytable[100]={ ......... }

c1 and c2 are pointer to functions.

My problem is that U-boot relocates itself into ram and these pointers are 
calculated at linking time.

Which is the best practice (into u.boot) to manage these loolup tables/jmps 
tables? is there a suggest way or a common place to put the needed relocation 
code (adding the gd->reloc_off to the pointers)?

I'm working on mips, but I thinks that this is a general question.

thanks in advance.

best regards,

luigi


PS.: I made a stupid driver to manage smi interface, that is a "theme 
variation" on mii bus, to manage a tantos switch. I can send the code if there 
is interest.
