This patch improves the 64-bit PowerPC InitialExec TLS support by providing
for a wider range of GOT entries that can hold thread-relative offsets. This matches the behavior of GCC, which was not documented in the PPC64 TLS ABI. The ABI will be updated with the new code sequence. Former sequence: ld 9,x@got@tprel(2) add 9,9,x@tls New sequence: addis 9,2,x@got@tprel@ha ld 9,x@got@tprel@l(9) add 9,9,x@tls Note that a linker optimization exists to transform the new sequence into the shorter sequence when appropriate, by replacing the addis with a nop and modifying the base register and relocation type of the ld. llvm-svn: 170209
