1 7.49 '.lcomm SYMBOL , LENGTH'
1 =============================
1 
1 Reserve LENGTH (an absolute expression) bytes for a local common denoted
1 by SYMBOL.  The section and value of SYMBOL are those of the new local
1 common.  The addresses are allocated in the bss section, so that at
1 run-time the bytes start off zeroed.  SYMBOL is not declared global
1 (⇒'.global' Global.), so is normally not visible to 'ld'.
1 
1    Some targets permit a third argument to be used with '.lcomm'.  This
1 argument specifies the desired alignment of the symbol in the bss
1 section.

1    The syntax for '.lcomm' differs slightly on the HPPA. The syntax is
1 'SYMBOL .lcomm, LENGTH'; SYMBOL is optional.
