Almost finished with it :)

No problem, the statements
.globl _rel_dyn_start_ofs
_rel_dyn_start_ofs:
.word __rel_dyn_start - _start
.globl _rel_dyn_end_ofs
_rel_dyn_end_ofs:
.word __rel_dyn_end - _start
.globl _dynsym_start_ofs
_dynsym_start_ofs:
.word __dynsym_start - _start
get the values to "C".

see above.

Why? It runs while code is at the right TEXT_BASE. If that shall
be weakened, I am not sure it can be done in "C".
I am troubled by your following statements in assembly:
Note: my u-boot has only one type "2" relocation:
patch 21f151fc : 00000302
fixabs:
/* absolute fix: set location to (offset) symbol value */
r1=00000302
mov r1, r1, LSR #4 /* r1 <- symbol index in .dynsym */
r1=00000030
add r1, r10, r1 /* r1 <- address of symbol in table */
r1=00000030+_dynsym_start_ofs
ldr r1, [r1, #4] /* r1 <- symbol value */
r1=r1[4]
add r1, r9 /* r1 <- relocated sym addr */
b fixnext
Is an entry in _dynsym really 16 bytes long?
Best Regards,
Reinhard
PS: I am about there:
#ifdef CONFIG_USE_C_RELOCATION
/* TODO: check for identical source and destination */
/* TODO: check for overlapping */
/* copy image, including initialized data */
debug ("memcpy(%08lx,%08lx,%ld)\n",
addr, _TEXT_BASE, _bss_start_ofs);
memcpy (addr, _TEXT_BASE, _bss_start_ofs);
/* now fix the code */
debug ("_dynsym_start_ofs=%08lx _rel_dyn_start_ofs=%08lx
_rel_dyn_end_ofs=%08lx\n",
_dynsym_start_ofs, _rel_dyn_start_ofs, _rel_dyn_end_ofs);
for (dyn_ptr = (ulong *)(_TEXT_BASE + _rel_dyn_start_ofs);
dyn_ptr < (ulong *)(_TEXT_BASE + _rel_dyn_end_ofs);
dyn_ptr += 8) {
ulong *patchaddr = (ulong *) dyn_ptr[0] + addr;
debug ("patch %08lx : %08lx\n",
patchaddr, dyn_ptr[1]);
switch (dyn_ptr[1] & 0xff) {
case 23: /* rel fixup */
*patchaddr += addr;
break;
case 2: /* abs fixup */
break;
default: /* unhandled fixup */
break;
}
}
Beautifying comes later ;)
