In Intel's manual volume 2 section 2.2.1.6 RIP-Relative Addressing:
A new addressing form, RIP-relative (relative instruction-pointer) addressing, is implemented in 64-bit mode. An effective address is formed by adding displacement to the 64-bit RIP of the next instruction.
e.g.
7ffff7a97759 mov 0x33b780(%rip),%rax # 0x7ffff7dd2ee0
7ffff7a97760 mov (%rax),%rax
This:
Takes the address in rip, and adds 0x33b780 to it. At this point, rip contains the address of the next instruction, which is 0x7ffff7a97760. Adding 0x33b780 to that gives you 0x7ffff7dd2ee0, which is the address in the comment.
It copies the 8 byte value stored at that address into rax.
