Yeah that works! OpenCL doesn't crashes anymore, and normal programs
seem to still load plugins fine.
For the record, we'll have to link plugins with -lltdl and add the
following code:
lt_dlhandle handle;
void *sym;
handle = lt_dlopen(NULL);
if (!handle)
return NULL;
sym = lt_dlsym(handle, "hwloc_backend_alloc");
lt_dlclose(handle);
if (!sym)
return NULL;
Components have an instantiate() callback that is always called first,
so this code could go there. The XML libxml plugin is different, there
are 3 possible entry points (backend init, export_xml and
export_xmlbuffer). So the above code would be needed in all of them (we
don't have a global plugin init() function, everything is in a struct).
This code has to be in the plugin for real, it obviously cannot be
shared in the hwloc core, but putting it in a static inline in
hwloc/plugins.h may still be OK?
