My understanding of what elfgcchack.h tries to achieve is to remove
indirect calls (through the PLT) for function calls within the library.
-Bsymbolic just does that:
$ cat test.c
int foo(int a)
{
return a;
}
int bar(void)
{
return foo(0);
}
$ gcc -shared -fPIC -o test.so test.c
$ objdump -d test.so |less
$ objdump -d test.so| grep foo
000003c8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
000004bc <foo>:
4dd: e8 e6 fe ff ff call 3c8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
$ gcc -Wl,-Bsymbolic -shared -fPIC -o test.so test.c
$ objdump -d test.so| grep foo
0000049c <foo>:
4bd: e8 da ff ff ff call 49c <foo>
-Bsymbolic is supposed to do that for most symbols. -Bsymbolic-functions
is specialized to function calls.
