libstdc++: correct symbol version of typeinfo for bfloat16_t on RISC-V
The problem is that on non-RISC-V targets, the new CXXABI_1.3.16 version
contains no symbol. This changes the pvs -dsvo output used by
extract_symvers.pl:
* For regular (strong?) versions it looks like
libstdc++.so.6 - CXXABI_1.3.15: {CXXABI_1.3.14};
* while for weak versions there's
libstdc++.so.6 - CXXABI_1.3.16 [WEAK]: {CXXABI_1.3.15};
This is the first time libstdc++.so has this issue, so the script cannot
yet handle this. I'll harden it not to break in situations like this, but the
question remains how to properly handle this in gnu.ver:
* Keep the new version as is, creating a (useless) weak version on everything
but RISC-V.
* Make the version strong (terminology?). On Solaris, this could be done by
prefixing the symbols with global: outside __riscv. However, GNU ld chokes
on this.
* Move the __riscv #ifdef outside the version definition.
I thing the third variant would be best.
This is not an issue on other ELF targets which use readelf --symbols where
the distinction isn't seen. One would need to use readelf -V to determine
the difference.
