o <<sym_ptr_ptr>>
The symbol table pointer points to a pointer to the symbol
- associated with the relocation request. It is
- the pointer into the table returned by the back end's
- <<get_symtab>> action. @xref{Symbols}. The symbol is referenced
- through a pointer to a pointer so that tools like the linker
- can fix up all the symbols of the same name by modifying only
- one pointer. The relocation routine looks in the symbol and
- uses the base of the section the symbol is attached to and the
- value of the symbol as the initial relocation offset. If the
- symbol pointer is zero, then the section provided is looked up.
