[PATCH] D71572: [ItaniumCXXABI] Use linkonce_odr instead of weak_odr for tls wrappers on Windows

[Reid Kleckner via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

rnk added inline comments.


================
Comment at: clang/lib/CodeGen/ItaniumCXXABI.cpp:2519-2520
       return VarLinkage;
+  // On Windows, WeakODR is a no-op, boiling down to the same as normal external
+  // linkage.
+  if (CGM.getTriple().isOSWindows())

So perhaps the issue is in the handling of `-ffunction-sections` wrt weak_odr?
Ah, that is an interesting wrinkle. I'm surprised that things worked without -ffunction-sections, though. I would've expected the two plain external definitions to produce multiple definition errors.
