Hi Richard,

Is there any reason why this pc-relative relocation doesn't work
from the .rodata section?

It is not these relocations which are not working (they do). It is the fact that the generated switch table code uses the .L8 label as the address of the switch table in RAM, but currently the .L8 label is in the .text section and the table itself is in the .rodata section....

Cheers
