Re: [U-Boot] A question about "Initialize GOT pointer"

I am not familiar with mips instruction.but i think it mean: pg=ra t1=0(ra) then move t1 to gp. so u cannot remove it .

hi,all: here is a question, who can tell me? thanks.

in uboot file : cpu/mips/start.S

/* Initialize GOT pointer. */ bal 1f nop .word _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ 1: move gp, ra lw t1, 0(ra) move gp, t1

I do't know why code "move gp, ra" needed? what happened if we remove these code?
