#define HOWTO(C, R, S, B, P, BI, O, SF, NAME, INPLACE, MASKSRC, MASKDST, PC) \
  { (unsigned) C, R, S, B, P, BI, O, SF, NAME, INPLACE, MASKSRC, MASKDST, PC }

Description
And will be replaced with the totally magic way. But for the moment, we are compatible, so do it this way.

#define NEWHOWTO(FUNCTION, NAME, SIZE, REL, IN) \ HOWTO (0, 0, SIZE, 0, REL, 0, complain_overflow_dont, FUNCTION, \ NAME, false, 0, 0, IN)

Description
This is used to fill in an empty howto entry in an array.

#define EMPTY_HOWTO(C) \ HOWTO ((C), 0, 0, 0, false, 0, complain_overflow_dont, NULL, \ NULL, false, 0, 0, false)

Description
Helper routine to turn a symbol into a relocation value.

#define HOWTO_PREPARE(relocation, symbol) \ { \ if (symbol != (asymbol *) NULL) \ { \ if (bfd_is_com_section (symbol->section)) \ { \ relocation = 0; \ } \ else \ { \ relocation = symbol->value; \ } \ } \ }
