I am using DJGPP to experiment with position-independent code. This is for a toy operating system that I'm writing. The position-independent code runs before address translation (paging) is set up and running. After compiling with the -fPIC option, the link fails: ld -o start.cof -Tlink.scr starta.o startc.o startc.o: In function `main': startc.c:32: undefined reference to `GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_' make.exe: *** [start.cof] Error 1 I did some tinkering with the ELF file format a while ago. Is GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE strictly an ELF thingy? Can I make -fPIC work with COFF format? What is the format of GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE for COFF?
