Hi,

I understand that global pointer is adjusted with respect to end of 
u-boot data. But there is a reference to GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE in 
cpu/mips/start.S whose contents are assigned to "gp" in the code. My 
code does not have the memory location which gp points to ? How should I 
find out what should be the contents of gp ? README file does mention 
the use of global pointers but it does not have a reference to GOT pointer.


Thanks and regards,
Pooja
