如何为标头定义的内联函数的所有实例合并静态函数?

Having a header that defines some static inline function that contains static variables in it, how to achieve merging of identical static local variables across all TUs that comprise final loadable module?. In a less abstract way:

/*
 * inc.h
 */
#include <stdlib.h>

static inline void* getPtr() {
    static void* p;
    if (!p) {
        p = malloc(16);
    }
    return p;
}

/*
 * 1.c
 */
#include "inc.h"

void* foo1() {
    return getPtr();
}

void* bar1() {
    return getPtr();
}

/*
 * 2.c
 */
#include "inc.h"

void* foo2() {
    return getPtr();
}

void* bar2() {
    return getPtr();
}

平台是Linux,该文件集是通过以下方式构建的:

$ clang -O2 -fPIC -shared 1.c 2.c

It is quite expected that both TUs receive own copies of getPtr.p. Though inside each TU getPtr.p is shared across all getPtr() instantiations. This can be confirmed by inspecting final loadable binary:

$ readelf -s --wide a.out | grep getPtr
    32: 0000000000201030     8 OBJECT  LOCAL  DEFAULT   21 getPtr.p
    34: 0000000000201038     8 OBJECT  LOCAL  DEFAULT   21 getPtr.p

At the same time I'm looking for a way of how to share getPtr.p across separate TU boundary. This vaguely resembles what happens with C++ template instantiations. And likely GRP_COMDAT would help me but I was not able to find any info about how to label my static var to be put into COMDAT.

是否有任何属性或其他源级别(不是编译器选项)的方式来实现这些对象的合并?
