10 dnl -fvisibility=hidden and the function and variable attributes
11 dnl __attribute__((__visibility__("hidden"))) and
12 dnl __attribute__((__visibility__("default"))).
13 dnl Does *not* test for __visibility__("protected") - which has tricky
14 dnl semantics (see the 'vismain' test in glibc) and does not exist e.g. on
16 dnl Does *not* test for __visibility__("internal") - which has processor
17 dnl dependent semantics.
18 dnl Does *not* test for #pragma GCC visibility push(hidden) - which is
19 dnl "really only recommended for legacy code".
20 dnl Set the variable CFLAG_VISIBILITY.
21 dnl Defines and sets the variable HAVE_VISIBILITY.
