[George Rimar via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

grimar added inline comments.


================
Comment at: ELF/InputSection.cpp:599
+    // On targets that support TLSDESC, _TLS_MODULE_BASE_ at tpoff = 0.
+    if (S.getName() == "_TLS_MODULE_BASE_")
+      return 0;

Also we can probably avoid this check if create the symbol with value of `alignTo(Out::TlsPhdr->p_memsz, Out::TlsPhdr->p_align)` it seems.

I.e. I am thinking about using original `getTlsTpOffset()` helper and creating a symbol with the value of `-getTlsTpOffset()`.
Will this work?
