[Bug lto/43038] New: DECL_PRESERVE_P static globals not completely preserved with -flto

[baldrick at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The fact that LinkObj is initialized with LinkVar does not seem to be
preserved when using -flto:

extern const char LinkVar;
__attribute__((used)) static const char *const LinkObj = LinkVar;

Confirmed.

The following fails to link with -flto

static int foobar __attribute__((used));
extern void abort (void);
int main()
{
  int res;
  asm("movl foobar(%%rip), %0" : "=g" (res));
  if (res != 0)
    abort ();
  return 0;
}

Sorry, small bug in the testcase, should have been:

extern const char LinkVar;
__attribute__((used)) static const char *const LinkObj = &LinkVar;

Ah, it does not work because we mangle foobar to foobar.1234, not because
we eliminate it.
