22  * INTRODUCTION
23  *
24  * This is the relocation format we use for Cortex-M4F cpu. This format is
25  * consistent with what GCC will produce with our app-compilation flags. So
26  * what will it produce? Relocs will ONLY be in RAM, always be word-sized,
27  * always be word-aligned, and never overlap. We use all of that. How do we
28  * encode? The relocs format is a bytestream. The decoder is conceptually two
29  * passes, though it can easily be implemented as a single pass. The first pass
30  * unpacks the bytestream into a list of TOKENS and NUMBERS. The second then
31  * uses those to reconstruct the list of relocs.
32  *
33  *
34  * PASS #1 - unpacking
35  *
36  * Each iteration, it will read a byte from the input byte stream, until none
37  * are available. This first byte will tell it what to do next. All values that
38  * are <= MAX_8_BIT_NUM, are put directly as a NUMBER into the output list.
39  * The remaining possibly values all require special handling, which will be
40  * described now:
41  *  TOKEN_32BIT_OFST:      4 bytes follow. They are to be treated as a single
42  *                          32-bit little-endian value. This value is put into
43  *                          the output list directly as a NUMBER.
44  *  TOKEN_24BIT_OFST:      3 bytes follow. They are to be treated as a single
45  *                          24-bit little-endian value. MAX_16_BIT_NUM is added
46  *                          to it, then this value is put into the output list
47  *                          as a NUMBER.
48  *  TOKEN_16BIT_OFST:      2 bytes follow. They are to be treated as a single
49  *                          16-bit little-endian value. MAX_8_BIT_NUM is added
50  *                          to it, then this value is put into the output list
51  *                          as a NUMBER.
52  *  TOKEN_CONSECUTIVE:     1 byte follows. It is read, MIN_RUN_LEN is added to
53  *                          it. That many zero-valued NUMBERS are added to the
54  *                          output list.
55  *  TOKEN_RELOC_TYPE_CHG:  1 byte follows. It is read, one is added to it, and
56  *                          a TYPE_CHANGE token with that value is added to the
57  *                          output list.
58  *  TOKEN_RELOC_TYPE_NEXT: a TYPE_CHANGE token with a value of 1 is added to
59  *                          the output list.
60  *
61  *
62  * PASS #2 - decoding
63  *
64  * The decoder is stateful. Initially the decoder state is representable as:
65  * {reloc_type: 0, ofst: 0}. The decoder will work by removig one item at a
66  * time from the head of the list generated by PASS #1, and acting on it, until
67  * no more exist. It will produce {reloc_type, reloc_offset} tuples, which can
68  * then be used to perform actual relocations. Unpon reading a TYPE_CHANGE
69  * token, "reloc_type" in the decoder's state shall be incremented by the value
70  * the token carries, and "ofst" shall be set to zero. Upon reading a NUMBER,
71  * the decoder shall:
72  *   a. calculate t = "ofst" + (that NUMBER's value) * 4
73  *   b. store t + 4 into "ofst"
74  *   c. produce an output tuple {"reloc_type", t}
75  *
76  *
77  * At the end of these two passes a list of tuples exists that has all reloc types
78  * and offsets. this list can be easily walked and relocations performed.
