<sys/dld_impl.h> defines dld_str_t as follows:

typedef struct dld_str  dld_str_t;

/*
 * dld_str_t object definition.
 */
struct dld_str {
...
} dld_str; 

In addition to defining dld_str_t as a structure of type "struct dld_str", this also results in a bogus global variable named "dld_str" to be instanciated in all files that include <sys/dld_impl.h>:

zhadum(/kernel/misc/sparcv9)$ nm dls | grep dld_str
[234]   |                   8|                 272|OBJT |GLOB |0    |COMMON |dld_str

zhadum(/kernel/drv/sparcv9)$ nm dld | grep dld_str
...
[238]   |                   8|                 272|OBJT |GLOB |0    |COMMON |dld_str
...

zhadum(/kernel/drv/sparcv9)$ nm aggr | grep dld_str
[238]   |                   8|                 272|OBJT |GLOB |0    |COMMON |dld_str
