Some temporary symbols are created by MC itself. These symbols are never used for lookup and are never included in the object symbol table, so we can avoid creating a name for them. Other temporaries are created by CodeGen or by the user by explicitly asking for a name starting with .L (or L on MachO). These temporaries behave like regular symbols, we just try to avoid including them in the object symbol table, but sometimes they end up there: const char *foo() { return "abc" + 3; } will have a relocation pointing to a .L symbol. It just so happens that almost all MC created temporary has the AlwaysAddSuffix option and CodeGen/user created ones don't. One interesting future optimization would be to use unnamed symbols for all temporaries, but that would require use an st_name of 0 or having the object writer create the names if a symbol does end up in the symbol table. No testcase since this just avoid creating a few extra names for MC created temporaries. llvm-svn: 238887 |
