  All the addend_*_rel() functions calculate the instruction location in
the same way.

Factor out the similar code to the caller. Squash reloc_location() too.

Can we compute `loc` only for the three machine types?

I believe you can compute the location in the same way for any architecture
because it is mentioned in ELF spec.

https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/elf/elf.pdf

Page 36.


r_offset
  This member gives the location at which to apply the relocation action. For
  a relocatable file, the value is the byte offset from the beginning of the
  section to the storage unit affected by the relocation.

Sure, but perhaps it's wasted work for other machine types?

I guess you missed the following code:


switch (elf->hdr->e_machine) {
case EM_386:
        ...
        break;
case EM_ARM:
        ...
        break;
case EM_MIPS:
        ...
        break;
default:
        fatal("Please add code to calculate addend for this architecture\n");
}




I believe other machines never call this function.
If it occurred, fatal() would immediately errors out,
but I have not heard such a breakage for far.

I believe only i386, mips and arm use REL.
The other architectures are RELA.
