Comment:

There is a special TLS program header that describes the thread-local data section. For this to work tbss should follow tdata (there can be alignment padding between them). From the filesize and memsize of this segment the dynamic loader can derive the beginning and size of tdata and tbss for each module.

    33Also, thread-local variables can currently only be in one runtime module (the C library) because of the way global symbols are used to measure tdata and tbss sections.
