Object Files</H1 +><P +>LWTOOLS uses a proprietary object file format. It is proprietary in the sense +that it is specific to LWTOOLS, not that it is a hidden format. It would be +hard to keep it hidden in an open source tool chain anyway. This chapter +documents the object file format.</P +><P +>An object file consists of a series of sections each of which contains a +list of exported symbols, a list of incomplete references, and a list of +"local" symbols which may be used in calculating incomplete references. Each +section will obviously also contain the object code.</P +><P +>Exported symbols must be completely resolved to an address within the +section it is exported from. That is, an exported symbol must be a constant +rather than defined in terms of other symbols.</P +><P +>Each object file starts with a magic number and version number. The magic +number is the string "LWOBJ16" for this 16 bit object file format. The only +defined version number is currently 0. Thus, the first 8 bytes of the object +file are <FONT +COLOR="RED" +>4C574F424A313600</FONT +></P +><P +>Each section has the following items in order:</P +><P +></P +><UL +><LI +><P +>section name</P +></LI +><LI +><P +>flags</P +></LI +><LI +><P +>list of local symbols (and addresses within the section)</P +></LI +><LI +><P +>list of exported symbols (and addresses within the section)</P +></LI +><LI +><P +>list of incomplete references along with the expressions to calculate them</P +></LI +><LI +><P +>the actual object code (for non-BSS sections)</P +></LI +></UL +><P +>The section starts with the name of the section with a NUL termination +followed by a series of flag bytes terminated by NUL. There are only two +flag bytes defined. A NUL (0) indicates no more flags and a value of 1 +indicates the section is a BSS section. For a BSS section, no actual +code is included in the object file.</P +><P +>Either a NULL section name or end of file indicate the presence of no more +sections.</P +><P +>Each entry in the exported and local symbols table consists of the symbol +(NUL terminated) followed by two bytes which contain the value in big endian +order. The end of a symbol table is indicated by a NULL symbol name.</P +><P +>Each entry in the incomplete references table consists of an expression +followed by a 16 bit offset where the reference goes. Expressions are +defined as a series of terms up to an "end of expression" term. Each term +consists of a single byte which identifies the type of term (see below) +followed by any data required by the term.
