//===- Passes/GOTPass.cpp - Adds GOT entries ------------------------------===//
//
// The LLVM Linker

//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This linker pass transforms all GOT kind references to real references.
// That is, in assembly you can write something like:
// movq foo@GOTPCREL(%rip), %rax
// which means you want to load a pointer to "foo" out of the GOT (global
// Offsets Table). In the object file, the Atom containing this instruction
// has a Reference whose target is an Atom named "foo" and the Reference
// kind is a GOT load. The linker needs to instantiate a pointer sized
// GOT entry. This is done be creating a GOT Atom to represent that pointer
// sized data in this pass, and altering the Atom graph so the Reference now
// points to the GOT Atom entry (corresponding to "foo") and changing the
// Reference Kind to reflect it is now pointing to a GOT entry (rather
// then needing a GOT entry).
//
// There is one optimization the linker can do here. If the target of the GOT
// is in the same linkage unit and does not need to be interposable, and
// the GOT use is just a load (not some other operation), this pass can
// transform that load into an LEA (add). This optimizes away one memory load
// at runtime that could stall the pipeline. This optimization only works
// for architectures in which a (GOT) load instruction can be change to an
// LEA instruction that is the same size. The platform method isGOTAccess()
// should only return true for "canBypassGOT" if this optimization is supported.
