/// SectionKind - This is a simple POD value that classifies the properties of
/// a section. A section is classified into the deepest possible
/// classification, and then the target maps them onto their sections based on
/// what capabilities they have.
///
/// The comments below describe these as if they were an inheritance hierarchy
/// in order to explain the predicates below.
///
class SectionKind {
enum Kind {
/// Metadata - Debug info sections or other metadata.
Metadata,
/// Text - Text section, used for functions and other executable code.
Text,
/// ExecuteOnly, Text section that is not readable.
ExecuteOnly,
/// ReadOnly - Data that is never written to at program runtime by the
/// program or the dynamic linker. Things in the top-level readonly
/// SectionKind are not mergeable.
ReadOnly,
/// MergableCString - Any null-terminated string which allows merging.
/// These values are known to end in a nul value of the specified size,
/// not otherwise contain a nul value, and be mergable. This allows the
/// linker to unique the strings if it so desires.
/// Mergeable1ByteCString - 1 byte mergable, null terminated, string.
Mergeable1ByteCString,
/// Mergeable2ByteCString - 2 byte mergable, null terminated, string.
Mergeable2ByteCString,
/// Mergeable4ByteCString - 4 byte mergable, null terminated, string.
Mergeable4ByteCString,
/// MergeableConst - These are sections for merging fixed-length
/// constants together. For example, this can be used to unique
/// constant pool entries etc.
/// MergeableConst4 - This is a section used by 4-byte constants,
/// for example, floats.
MergeableConst4,
/// MergeableConst8 - This is a section used by 8-byte constants,
/// for example, doubles.
MergeableConst8,
/// MergeableConst16 - This is a section used by 16-byte constants,
/// for example, vectors.
MergeableConst16,
/// MergeableConst32 - This is a section used by 32-byte constants,
/// for example, vectors.
MergeableConst32,
/// Writeable - This is the base of all segments that need to be written
/// to during program runtime.
/// ThreadLocal - This is the base of all TLS segments. All TLS
/// objects must be writeable, otherwise there is no reason for them to
/// be thread local!
/// ThreadBSS - Zero-initialized TLS data objects.
ThreadBSS,
/// ThreadData - Initialized TLS data objects.
ThreadData,
/// GlobalWriteableData - Writeable data that is global (not thread
/// local).
/// BSS - Zero initialized writeable data.
BSS,
/// BSSLocal - This is BSS (zero initialized and writable) data
/// which has local linkage.
BSSLocal,
/// BSSExtern - This is BSS data with normal external linkage.
BSSExtern,
/// Common - Data with common linkage. These represent tentative
/// definitions, which always have a zero initializer and are never
/// marked 'constant'.
Common,
/// This is writeable data that has a non-zero initializer.
Data,
/// ReadOnlyWithRel - These are global variables that are never
/// written to by the program, but that have relocations, so they
/// must be stuck in a writeable section so that the dynamic linker
/// can write to them. If it chooses to, the dynamic linker can
/// mark the pages these globals end up on as read-only after it is
/// done with its relocation phase.
