Thanks for your tip and sorry for my ambiguit question.
When I read the relocate_code function in cpu/mpc8xx/start.S, I found the code below:
============================================================================= 512 sub r15, r10, r4 513 514 /* First our own GOT */ 515 add r14, r14, r15 516 /* then the one used by the C code */ 517 add r30, r30, r15 =============================================================================
And I checked the dis-assemble code, and R30 was used as a pointer, but which specification documentes this usage or it is just GCC's flavor?

I find nothing about this in (E)ABI specification(perhaps some old), so, where is it?
You want the ABI that is available here:

The EABI is just extensions on top of it.
