Subject: [PATCH v4 15/27] compiler: Option to default to hidden symbols
Date:   Tue, 29 May 2018 15:15:16 -0700
Message-Id: <20180529221625.33541-16-thgarnie@google.com>
In-Reply-To: <20180529221625.33541-1-thgarnie@google.com>
References: <20180529221625.33541-1-thgarnie@google.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Provide an option to default visibility to hidden except for key
symbols. This option is disabled by default and will be used by x86_64
PIE support to remove errors between compilation units.

The default visibility is also enabled for external symbols that are
compared as they maybe equals (start/end of sections). In this case,
older versions of GCC will remove the comparison if the symbols are
hidden. This issue exists at least on gcc 4.9 and before.
