+// This pass is a helper used by the ExpandTls pass.
+//
+// LLVM treats the address of a TLS variable as a ConstantExpr. This
+// is arguably a bug because the address of a TLS variable is *not* a
+// constant: it varies between threads.
+//
+// See http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=14353
+//
+// This is also a problem for the ExpandTls pass, which wants to use
+// replaceUsesOfWith() to replace each TLS variable with an
+// Instruction sequence that calls @llvm.nacl.read.tp(). This doesn't
+// work if the TLS variable is used inside other ConstantExprs,
+// because ConstantExprs are interned and are not associated with any
+// function, whereas each Instruction must be part of a function.
+//
+// To fix that problem, this pass converts ConstantExprs that
+// reference TLS variables into Instructions.
+//
+// For example, this use of a 'ptrtoint' ConstantExpr:
+//
+// ret i32 ptrtoint (i32* @tls_var to i32)
+//
+// is converted into this 'ptrtoint' Instruction:
+//
+// %expanded = ptrtoint i32* @tls_var to i32
+// ret i32 %expanded
+//
