+TOC Data Transformation
+"""""""""""""""""""""""
+TOC data transformation is off by default (``-mno-tocdata``).
+When ``-mtocdata`` is specified, the TOC data transformation will be applied to
+all suitable variables with static storage duration, including static data
+members of classes and block-scope static variables (if not marked as exceptions,
+see further below).
 
+Suitable variables must:
+
+-  have complete types
+-  be independently generated (i.e., not placed in a pool)
+-  be at most as large as a pointer
+-  not be aligned more strictly than a pointer
+-  not be structs containing flexible array members
+-  not have internal linkage

just curiously, why not  `not have internal linkage` ?
and  we need to add the 
`not be thread local storage`
