   I'd say they should probably go the other way, defining even built-in operators like: operator+(int a, int b) __gcc_internal_int_sum(a, b) This way, we can change (through overriding) the way these operations work (rounding, overflow,

    Yes, but what you describe only happens if you try to access the TLS variables directly. If I put all the TLS variable in a .so file, and only access them through getter/setter functions (also part of the .so), can compiler optimisatio

    Wait, are you saying that compilers can cache the pointer to TLS across function calls, even when inlining is disabled? Does this mean that the OP article is wrong when it says to use a separate getter/setter function for each TLS vari
