00000084  00000202 R_ARM_ABS32       00000000   .text

.text section structure as I understand it:

.text section has size of 0x124

0x0: unknown byte
0x1-0xC3: __gnu_f2h_internal
0xC3-0xC5: two unknown bytes between those functions (btw what are those?)
0xC5-0x113: __gnu_h2f_internal
0x113-0x115: two unknown bytes between those functions
0x115-0x119: __gnu_f2h_ieee
0x119-0x11D: __gnu_h2f_ieee
0x11D-0x121: __gnu_f2h_alternative
0x121-0x125: __gnu_h2f_alternative // section is only 0x124, what happened to the missing byte?

Notice that the section size is 0x124 and the last function end in 0x125, what happend to the missing byte?

Thanks.

Technically, your "missing byte" is the one right there at 0x0.

Note that you're looking at the value of the symbol, i.e. the runtime function address (this would be a lot clearer if your .text section VMA wasn't 0). Since they're Thumb functions, the addresses have bit 0 set such that the processor will switch to Thumb mode when calling them; the actual locations of those instructions are still halfword-aligned, i.e. 0x0, 0xc4, 0x114, etc. since they couldn't be executed otherwise (you'd take a fault for a misaligned PC). Strip off bit 0 as per what the ARM ELF spec says about STT_FUNC symbols to get the actual VMA of the instruction corresponding to that symbol, then subtract the start of the section and you should have the same relative offset as within the object file itself.

<offset in section> = (<symbol value> & ~1) - <section VMA>

The extra halfword padding after some functions just ensures each symbol is word-aligned - there are probably various reasons for this, but the first one that comes to mind is that the adr instruction wouldn't work properly if they weren't.
