#### 8.1.2 MIPS Attributes

Tag_GNU_MIPS_ABI_FP (4)
  The floating-point ABI used by this object file. The value will be:
  - 0 for files not affected by the floating-point ABI, compatible with the legacy NaN encoding convention.
  - 1 for files using the hardware floating-point with a standard double-precision FPU, and using the legacy NaN encoding convention.
  - 2 for files using the hardware floating-point ABI with a single-precision FPU, and using the legacy NaN encoding convention.
  - 3 for files using the software floating-point ABI, and using the legacy NaN encoding convention.
  - 4 for files using the hardware floating-point ABI with 64-bit wide double-precision floating-point registers and 32-bit wide general purpose registers, and using the legacy NaN encoding convention.
  - 8 for files not affected by the floating-point ABI, compatible with the IEEE 754-2008 NaN encoding convention.
  - 9 for files using the hardware floating-point with a standard double-precision FPU, and using the IEEE 754-2008 NaN encoding convention.
  - 10 for files using the hardware floating-point ABI with a single-precision FPU, and using the IEEE 754-2008 NaN encoding convention.
  - 11 for files using the software floating-point ABI, and using the IEEE 754-2008 NaN encoding convention.
  - 12 for files using the hardware floating-point ABI with 64-bit wide double-precision floating-point registers and 32-bit wide general purpose registers, and using the IEEE 754-2008 NaN encoding convention.
