Unlike gcc, visibility triggers a warning in g++:
[hjl@gnu-tools-1 pr67220]$ cat memcpy.i
typedef unsigned long size_t;
extern void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n)
__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden")));
void
bar (void *d, void *s, size_t n)
{
memcpy (d, s, n);
}
[hjl@gnu-tools-1 pr67220]$ make memcpy.s
/export/build/gnu/gcc/build-x86_64-linux/gcc/xg++
-B/export/build/gnu/gcc/build-x86_64-linux/gcc/ -O2 -fPIC -S memcpy.i
memcpy.i:2:14: warning: ‘void* memcpy(void*, const void*, size_t)’:
visibility attribute ignored because it conflicts with previous
declaration [-Wattributes]
extern void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n)
^
<built-in>: note: previous declaration of ‘void* memcpy(void*, const
void*, size_t)’
[hjl@gnu-tools-1 pr67220]$
Since those fallback functions are in the C library, it is very
unlikely they can be hidden in C++. They are mostly likely
to happen inside of the C library.
