after I added the Options.IgnoreXCOFFVisibility = 
LangOpts.IgnoreXCOFFVisibility , even there is  
GV->setVisibility(llvm::GlobalValue::HiddenVisibility);  it do not effect our 
output.

there is following code in the function void 
PPCAIXAsmPrinter::emitLinkage(const GlobalValue *GV,
                                   MCSymbol *GVSym) const
{
 ..... 
  if (!TM.getIgnoreXCOFFVisibility()) {
    switch (GV->getVisibility()) {

    // TODO: "exported" and "internal" Visibility needs to go here.
    case GlobalValue::DefaultVisibility:
      break;
    case GlobalValue::HiddenVisibility:
      VisibilityAttr = MAI->getHiddenVisibilityAttr();
      break;
    case GlobalValue::ProtectedVisibility:
      VisibilityAttr = MAI->getProtectedVisibilityAttr();
      break;
    }
  }

...
}

there is a comment in https://reviews.llvm.org/D87451   " Hello. I added a 
power-pc REQUIRES clause to the new clang test here in 
a15bd0bfc20c2b2955c59450a67b6e8efe89c708. Hope that looks OK."
