  // when we have a constant that contains global relocations.  This is
  // necessary because of this ABI's handling of pointers to functions in
  // a shared library.  The address of a function is actually the address
  // of a function descriptor, which resides in the .opd section.  Generated
  // code uses the descriptor directly rather than going via the GOT as some
  // other ABIs do, which means that initialized function pointers must
  // reference the descriptor.  The linker must convert copy relocs of
  // pointers to functions in shared libraries into dynamic relocations,
  // because of an ordering problem with initialization of copy relocs and
  // PLT entries.  The dynamic relocation will be initialized by the dynamic
  // linker, so we must use DataRelROSection instead of ReadOnlySection.
  // For more information, see the description of ELIMINATE_COPY_RELOCS in
  // GNU ld.
