+
+<p>GCC usually addresses every static object as a separate entity.
+For example, if we have:
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">static int a, b, c;
+int foo (void) { return a + b + c; }
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>the code for <code>foo</code> will usually calculate three separate symbolic
+addresses: those of <code>a</code>, <code>b</code> and <code>c</code>. On some targets,
+it would be better to calculate just one symbolic address and access
+the three variables relative to it. The equivalent pseudocode would
+be something like:
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">int foo (void)
+{
+ register int *xr = &amp;x;
+ return xr[&amp;a - &amp;x] + xr[&amp;b - &amp;x] + xr[&amp;c - &amp;x];
+}
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>(which isn&rsquo;t valid C). We refer to shared addresses like <code>x</code> as
+&ldquo;section anchors&rdquo;. Their use is controlled by <samp>-fsection-anchors</samp>.
+</p>
+<p>The hooks below describe the target properties that GCC needs to know
+in order to make effective use of section anchors. It won&rsquo;t use
+section anchors at all unless either <code>TARGET_MIN_ANCHOR_OFFSET</code>
+or <code>TARGET_MAX_ANCHOR_OFFSET</code> is set to a nonzero value.
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fMIN_005fANCHOR_005fOFFSET"></a>Target Hook: <em>HOST_WIDE_INT</em> <strong>TARGET_MIN_ANCHOR_OFFSET</strong></dt>
+<dd><p>The minimum offset that should be applied to a section anchor.
+On most targets, it should be the smallest offset that can be
+applied to a base register while still giving a legitimate address
+for every mode. The default value is 0.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fMAX_005fANCHOR_005fOFFSET"></a>Target Hook: <em>HOST_WIDE_INT</em> <strong>TARGET_MAX_ANCHOR_OFFSET</strong></dt>
+<dd><p>Like <code>TARGET_MIN_ANCHOR_OFFSET</code>, but the maximum (inclusive)
+offset that should be applied to section anchors. The default
+value is 0.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fASM_005fOUTPUT_005fANCHOR"></a>Target Hook: <em>void</em> <strong>TARGET_ASM_OUTPUT_ANCHOR</strong> <em>(rtx <var>x</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>Write the assembly code to define section anchor <var>x</var>, which is a
+<code>SYMBOL_REF</code> for which &lsquo;<samp>SYMBOL_REF_ANCHOR_P (<var>x</var>)</samp>&rsquo; is true.
+The hook is called with the assembly output position set to the beginning
+of <code>SYMBOL_REF_BLOCK (<var>x</var>)</code>.
+</p>
+<p>If <code>ASM_OUTPUT_DEF</code> is available, the hook&rsquo;s default definition uses
+it to define the symbol as &lsquo;<samp>. + SYMBOL_REF_BLOCK_OFFSET (<var>x</var>)</samp>&rsquo;.
+If <code>ASM_OUTPUT_DEF</code> is not available, the hook&rsquo;s default definition
+is <code>NULL</code>, which disables the use of section anchors altogether.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-TARGET_005fUSE_005fANCHORS_005fFOR_005fSYMBOL_005fP"></a>Target Hook: <em>bool</em> <strong>TARGET_USE_ANCHORS_FOR_SYMBOL_P</strong> <em>(const_rtx <var>x</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>Return true if GCC should attempt to use anchors to access <code>SYMBOL_REF</code>
+<var>x</var>. You can assume &lsquo;<samp>SYMBOL_REF_HAS_BLOCK_INFO_P (<var>x</var>)</samp>&rsquo; and
+&lsquo;<samp>!SYMBOL_REF_ANCHOR_P (<var>x</var>)</samp>&rsquo;.
+</p>
+<p>The default version is correct for most targets, but you might need to
+intercept this hook to handle things like target-specific attributes
+or target-specific sections.
