+/* The correct solution is for _dl_vdso_vsym to return the address of the OPD
+ for the kernel VDSO function. That address would then be stored in the
+ __vdso_* variables and returned as the result of the IFUNC resolver function.
+ Yet, the kernel does not contain any OPD entries for the VDSO functions
+ (incomplete implementation). However, PLT relocations for IFUNCs still expect
+ the address of an OPD to be returned from the IFUNC resolver function (since
+ PLT entries on PPC64 are just copies of OPDs). The solution for now is to
+ create an artificial static OPD for each VDSO function returned by a resolver
+ function. The TOC value is set to a non-zero value to avoid triggering lazy
+ symbol resolution via .glink0/.plt0 for a zero TOC (requires thread-safe PLT
+ sequences) when the dynamic linker isn't prepared for it e.g. RTLD_NOW. None
+ of the kernel VDSO routines use the TOC or AUX values so any non-zero value
+ will work. Note that function pointer comparisons will not use this artificial
+ static OPD since those are resolved via ADDR64 relocations and will point at
+ the non-IFUNC default OPD for the symbol. Lastly, because the IFUNC relocations
+ are processed immediately at startup the resolver functions and this code need
+ not be thread-safe, but if the caller writes to a PLT slot it must do so in a
+ thread-safe manner with all the required barriers. */
