This problem is because the gcc-12 does not yet to support the option 'mno-explicit-reloc', this option is used to open the new reloaction type for LoongArch, this new feature is very important for LoongArch, because it can reduce the binary size and improve code execution efficiency, so we turn it on when submitting the code to the EDK2 repo.
Is it possible to produce a _functional_ LoongArch64 EDK2 binary without this option, even if the resulting binary is less efficient?
MdePkg/Include/IndustryStandard/PeImage.h lists a single loongarch relocation type only, which I expect being the new type. So I suspect the answer is "no" because the edk2 pe loader isn't able to handle the old relocation type(s).
