+=== Compressed and Non-compressed Relaxations in the Same Object
+
+Linker used to enables and disables the compressed relaxations by checking the
+[[EF_RISCV_RVC]] of each intput object. Since [[EF_RISCV_RVC]] is an
+object-level tag, it cannot handle the case that if `.option arch, +c` and
+`.option arch, -c` are in the same object. Therefore, encode the mapping symbols
+into each R_RISCV_RELAX can resolve the problem.

+    .option arch, rv32i
+    auipc ra, 0          # R_RISCV_CALL_PLT (symbol), R_RISCV_RELAX ($xrv32i)
+    jalr  ra, ra, 0

+    .option arch, +c
+    auipc ra, 0          # R_RISCV_CALL_PLT (symbol), R_RISCV_RELAX ($xrv32ic)
+    jalr  ra, ra, 0
