| <dl><dt><code>.lcomm </code><var>symbol</var><code> , </code><var>length</var><code>[, </code><var>alignment</var><code>]</code><dd>Reserve <var>length</var> (an absolute expression) bytes for a local common |
| denoted by <var>symbol</var>. The section and value of <var>symbol</var> are |
| those of the new local common. The addresses are allocated in the bss |
| section, so that at run-time the bytes start off zeroed. Since |
| <var>symbol</var> is not declared global, it is normally not visible to |
| <code>ld</code>. The optional third parameter, <var>alignment</var>, |
| specifies the desired alignment of the symbol in the bss section. |
| |
| <p>This directive is only available for COFF based x86 targets. |
