22 /* When one dynamically loads a module, which spawns a thread to perform some
23 activities, it could be possible that TLS storage is accessed for the first
24 time in that thread. This results in an allocation request within the
25 thread, which could result in an attempt to take the rtld load_lock. This
26 is a problem because it would then deadlock with the dlopen (which owns the
27 lock), if the main thread is waiting for the spawned thread to exit. We can
28 at least ensure that this problem does not occur due to accesses within
29 libc.so, by marking TLS variables within libc.so as IE. The problem of an
30 arbitrary variable being accessed and constructed within such a thread still
31 exists but this test case does not verify that. */
