+/* The ELFv2 ABI uses three bits in the symbol st_other field of a
+   function definition to specify the number of instructions between a
+   function's global entry point and local entry point.
+   The global entry point is used when it is necessary to set up the
+   toc pointer (r2) for the function.  Callers must enter the global
+   entry point with r12 set to the global entry point address.  On
+   return from the function, r2 may have a different value to that
+   which it had on entry.
+   The local entry point is used when r2 is known to already be valid
+   for the function.  There is no requirement on r12 when using the
+   local entry point, and on return r2 will contain the same value as
+   at entry.
+   A value of zero in these bits means that the function has a single
+   entry point with no requirement on r12 or r2, and that on return r2
+   will contain the same value as at entry.
+   Values of one and seven are reserved.  */
