STINNER Victor added the comment: builtin_modules.patch: add _PyBUILTIN_MODINIT_FUNC macro and use it on modules which are builtins on POSIX.
I checked: it's not necessary to modify Modules/config.c to make the symbol hidden: only the C code in Modules/ need to set the attribute on the function. So Modules/config.c, Modules/config.c.in, Modules/makesetup, PC/config.c, Tools/freeze/makeconfig.py, ... are unchanged by the patch. -- On Linux with GCC >= 4.0, you can test manually to hide PyInit_xxx symbols using: #define _PyBUILTIN_MODINIT_FUNC __attribute__((visibility("hidden"))) PyObject* ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38527/builtin_modules.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23685> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
