+// Bionic TCB / TLS slots:
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_SELF: On x86-{32,64}, the kernel makes TLS memory available via
+//    the gs/fs segments. To get the address of a TLS variable, the first slot
+//    of TLS memory (accessed using %gs:0 / %fs:0) holds the address of the
+//    gs/fs segment. This slot is used by:
+//     - OpenGL and compiler-rt
+//     - Accesses of x86 ELF TLS variables
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_OPENGL and TLS_SLOT_OPENGL_API: These two aren't used by bionic
+//    itself, but allow the graphics code to access TLS directly rather than
+//    using the pthread API.
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_STACK_GUARD: Used for -fstack-protector by:
+//     - Clang targeting Android/arm64
+//     - gcc targeting Linux/x86-{32,64}
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_SANITIZER: Lets sanitizers avoid using pthread_getspecific for
+//    finding the current thread state.
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_DTV: Pointer to ELF TLS dynamic thread vector.
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_ART_THREAD_SELF: Fast storage for Thread::Current() in ART.
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_BIONIC_TLS: Optimizes accesses to bionic_tls by one load versus
+//    finding it using __get_thread().
+//
+//  - TLS_SLOT_APP: Available for use by apps in Android Q and later. (This slot
+//    was used for errno in P and earlier.)
+
+#if defined(__arm__) || defined(__aarch64__)

+// The ARM ELF TLS ABI specifies[1] that the thread pointer points at a 2-word
+// TCB followed by the executable's TLS segment. Both the TCB and the
+// executable's segment are aligned according to the segment, so Bionic requires
+// a minimum segment alignment, which effectively reserves an 8-word TCB. The
+// ARM spec allocates the first TCB word to the DTV.
