[PATCH] libbpf: Fix build with latest gcc/binutils with LTO

From: Michal Suchanek <hidden>
Date: 2021-08-27 07:25:54

From: Patrick McCarty <redacted>

After updating to binutils 2.35, the build began to fail with an
assembler error. A bug was opened on the Red Hat Bugzilla a few days
later for the same issue.

Work around the problem by using the new `symver` attribute (introduced
in GCC 10) as needed, instead of the `COMPAT_VERSION` and
`DEFAULT_VERSION` macros, which expand to assembler directives.

This is not a proper tag. We used the following form before:

  [0] Closes: https://github.com/libbpf/libbpf/issues/280

So it's a reference. And then mention in commit message that this was
initiated by the issue on Github ([0]), or something along those
lines.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1863059
Fixes: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1188749
These are also not proper Fixes: tags for kernel. It's fine if you
mention that this change fixes those bugs, but maybe use the reference
([1], [2]) style for that?

This is not a tag, maybe remove this or make it part of the commit
message properly?

This seems wrong. If __GNUC__ && __GNUC__ >= 10 we'll define
DEFAULT_VERSION and COMPAT_VERSION as if we are linking in shared
library mode. This will be wrong on new GCC *and* static linking mode.
I think the above declarations should be inside #ifdef SHARED section.

Also, can you please write it out as #if defined(__GNUC__) && __GNUC__
= 10, instead of doubly nested #if/#ifdef condition?
