Hi, You are absolutely right. I am talking about ARM code located in start.S file. I am not able to figure out from from the referred link. I also consulted " http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0044d/IHI0044D_aaelf.pdf " which talks about arm code relocation but it is also not helpful. It nowhere talks about ".rel.dyn" section which i referred to in my previous post. Can You provide any pointer from where i can get understanding of this section.
