I saw that there is a define TC_PARSE_CONS_EXPRESSION that can be used to install a hook. I just wanted to make sure I was not missing something simpler.

The 'struct expressionS' has the additional 'X_md' which is used by some targets to add extra rules for the expression. I am not very knowledge on this code, but I would expect that ld has a callback to handle the expressions prior the written. _______________________________________________ linaro-toolchain mailing list -- linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org To unsubscribe send an email to linaro-toolchain-le...@lists.linaro.org
