Description Fangrui Song 2021-08-06 22:15:49 UTC 
TLSDESC is the default on aarch64.

Clang doesn't support -mtls-dialect=trad.
Its integrated assembler doesn't support the markers.
LLD's doesn't support R_AARCH64_TLSGD_*/R_AARCH64_TLSLD_* relocations.
Supporting the model has nearly zero value.

These tests use TLS_GD/TLS_LD macros:

M       elf/tst-tls1.c
M       elf/tst-tls2.c
M       elf/tst-tls3.c
M       elf/tst-tlsmod1.c
M       elf/tst-tlsmod2.c
M       elf/tst-tlsmod3.c
M       elf/tst-tlsmod4.c

They can be disabled when CC is Clang or LD is LLD.

[PATCH] aarch64: Skip traditional GD/LD TLS which are unsupported by Clang and LLD [BZ #28205]

can skip these tests if either CC or LD doesn't support traditional GD/LD.

(elf: Drop elf/tls-macros.h in favor of __thread and tls_model attributes [BZ #28152] [BZ #28205])

Fixed for 2.35.
