Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/9] elf: Add relocation types used by nolibc
Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 16:44:32 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260131074440.732588-2-daniel@thingy.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260131074440.732588-1-daniel@thingy.jp>

nolibc based programs are gaining the ability to relocate themselves
so that they can support PIE without needing a linker or special
crt from the toolchain.

Add the required relocation types.
