HELP: MIPS PC Relative Addressing

Hi all, I'm trying to implement PC Relative addressing for toolchain (GCC, LLVM). MIPS Release6 had introduced pcrel instructions (e.g. auipc) that made PC relative addressing for local data possible. It can help us reduce GOT overhead and implement position independent kernel easier. Just as R
