@code{.nsubspa} always creates a new subspace with the given name, even
if one with the same name already exists.
+@samp{comdat}, @samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} can be used to implement
+various flavors of one-only support when using the SOM linker. The SOM
+linker only supports specific combinations of these flags. The details
+are not documented. A brief description is provided here.
+
+@samp{comdat} provides a form of linkonce support. It is useful for
+both code and data subspaces. A @samp{comdat} subspace has a key symbol
+marked by the @samp{is_comdat} flag or @samp{ST_COMDAT}. Only the first
+subspace for any given key is selected. The key symbol becomes universal
+in shared links. This is similar to the behavior of @samp{secondary_def}
+symbols.
+
+@samp{common} provides Fortran named common support. It is only useful
+for data subspaces. Symbols with the flag @samp{is_common} retain this
+flag in shared links. Referencing a @samp{is_common} symbol in a shared
+library from outside the library doesn't work. Thus, @samp{is_common}
+symbols must be output whenever they are needed.
+
+@samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} together provide Cobol common support.
+The subspaces in this case must all be the same length. Otherwise, this
+support is similar to the Fortran common support.
+
+@samp{dup_comm} by itself provides a type of one-only support for code.
+Only the first @samp{dup_comm} subspace is selected. There is a rather
+complex algorithm to compare subspaces. Code symbols marked with the
+@samp{dup_common} flag are hidden. This support was intended for "C++
+duplicate inlines".
+
+A simplified technique is used to mark the flags of symbols based on
+the flags of their subspace. A symbol with the scope SS_UNIVERSAL and
+type ST_ENTRY, ST_CODE or ST_DATA is marked with the corresponding
+settings of @samp{comdat}, @samp{common} and @samp{dup_comm} from the
+subspace, respectively. This avoids having to introduce additional
+directives to mark these symbols. The HP assembler sets @samp{is_common}
+from @samp{common}. However, it doesn't set the @samp{dup_common} from
+@samp{dup_comm}. It doesn't have @samp{comdat} support.
