The Application Binary Interface (ABI) Specifications define Operating System and Application interfaces that are neccesary to construct an execution environment for applications. Tool Interface Standard (TIS) Portable Formats Specification, version 1.1 . 1993 document containing an extract of the x86 ABI version 3.0, DWARF 2.0 draft and OMF Tool Interface Standard (TIS) Portable Formats Specification, version 1.2 . 1995 document containing only the ELF Specification. This version breaks ELF into 3 seperate books, ELF, x86 psABI, and the Operating System Specific Specification for SVR4. This appears to be the most current TIS specification. System V ABI Edition 4.1 . 1997 document containing the most recent ABI standard. This document is known as the Generic ABI (gABI) and must be used in conjunction with a Processor Suppliment aBI (psABI) document. System V ABI - DRAFT 24 April 2001 . 2001 update to chapters 4 and 5 of the gABI. This version is one of several updates listed in draft status. Processor Specific ELF documents System V Application Binary Interface Intel386 Architecture Processor Supplment, Fourth Edition Intel Itanium Processor specific ABI System V Application Binary Interface x86-64 Architecture Processor Supplement Draft Version 0.95 | v0.98 | v0.99 System V Application Binary Interface MIPS RISC Processor Supplment, 3rd Edition System V Application Binary Interface PowerPC Processor Supplment . This is one of two known PPC ELF standards. This one was developed by SunSoft. The two versions are not identical, and applications can only conform to one or the other, while it seems possible for an implementation to support both simulaneously.
