32 /// RuntimeDyld will copy JITed section memory into these allocated blocks
33 /// and perform any necessary linking and relocations.
35 /// Any client using this memory manager MUST ensure that section-specific
36 /// page permissions have been applied before attempting to execute functions
37 /// in the JITed object. Permissions can be applied either by calling
38 /// MCJIT::finalizeObject or by calling SectionMemoryManager::finalizeMemory
