Otherwise there would be multiple definitions of a given symbol and the linker won't know which symbol version to bind to. Following your example, something along these lines: 4) Edit lib/<library>/library_version.map to add a DPDK_1.9 node that is a successor to DPDK_1.8, in which foo is exported as a global symbol DPDK_1.9 { global: foo; } DPDK_1.8; 5) rename new function int foo(int index) to int __vsym foo_v19(int index) 6) Add this macro immediately below the function: DEFAULT_SYMBOL(foo, _v19, 1.9); #define DEFAULT_SYMBOL(b, e, v) __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@@DPDK_"SA(v)) > +#else > +/* > + * No symbol versioning in use > + */ > +#define VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) > +#define __vsym > + > +/* > + * RTE_SYMBOL_VERSIONING > + */ > +#endif > + > + > +#endif /* _RTE_COMPAT_H_ */ > diff --git a/mk/rte.lib.mk b/mk/rte.lib.mk > index f458258..82ac309 100644 > --- a/mk/rte.lib.mk > +++ b/mk/rte.lib.mk > @@ -40,8 +40,12 @@ VPATH += $(SRCDIR) > > ifeq ($(RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB),y) > LIB := $(patsubst %.a,%.so,$(LIB)) > + > +CPU_LDFLAGS += --version-script=$(EXPORT_MAP) > + > endif > > + > _BUILD = $(LIB) > _INSTALL = $(INSTALL-FILES-y) $(SYMLINK-FILES-y) $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib/$(LIB) > _CLEAN = doclean > @@ -160,7 +164,9 @@ endif > $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib/$(LIB): $(LIB) > @echo " INSTALL-LIB $(LIB)" > @[ -d $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib ] || mkdir -p $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib > +ifneq ($(LIB),) > $(Q)cp -f $(LIB) $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib > +endif > > # > # Clean all generated files > -- > 1.9.3 > Sergio

When you use a version script to create a DSO, at link time, the appropriate version is appended to the symbol name (you can see it with objdump -t in a linked binary). If you want to update the symbol to a new version, you do what I documented in the header file (though now that I re-read it, it could be more clear. Hows this for a change to the documentation: To make a new version of a function foo in a DSO: 1) Edit lib/<library>/library_version.map to add a DPDK_1.8 node, in which foo is exported as a global symbol 2) rename the existing function int foo(char *string) to int __vsym foo_v18(char *string) 3) Add this macro immediately below the function VERSION_SYMBOL(foo, _v18, 1.8); 4) Implement the new version of the function foo. Those steps above will create two symbols in your export table of the DSO: foo@@DPDK_1.8 foo@@DPDK_1.9 Any application linked against this DSO will link against the latest version (DPDK_1.9). But if you look at the symbols referenced in a binary linked against an older version of the same DSO, you'll note they explicitly look for foo@@DPDK_1.8. Thats how we provide backwards compatibility Does that answer your questions?

As an example, if we were to have three versions of foo the export table of the DSO should look something like this: foo@VER_1.0 foo@VER_1.1 foo@@VER_1.2 In the above example, foo VER_1.2 is the default one and is indicated by having double @. Effectively we would need two macros VERSION_SYMBOL and DEFAULT_VERSION_SYMBOL (maybe this name is more appropriate). #define VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) \ __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@DPDK_"SA(v)) #define DEFAULT_VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) \ __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@@DPDK_"SA(v)) Following on the example, we should have something like: int __vsym foo_v18(char *string) {...} VERSION_SYMBOL(foo, _v18, 1.8); int __vsym foo_v19(int index) {...} DEFAULT_VERSION_SYMBOL(foo, _v19, 1.9); The DSO export table would have the following symbols: foo@DPDK_1.8 foo@@DPDK_1.9 Old binaries linked against DPDK 1.8 would have references to: foo@@DPDK_1.8 and new binaries linked against DPDK 1.9 would have to: foo@@DPDK_1.9 Sergio > > > +#else > > > +/* > > > + * No symbol versioning in use > > > + */ > > > +#define VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) > > > +#define __vsym > > > + > > > +/* > > > + * RTE_SYMBOL_VERSIONING > > > + */ > > > +#endif > > > + > > > + > > > +#endif /* _RTE_COMPAT_H_ */ > > > diff --git a/mk/rte.lib.mk b/mk/rte.lib.mk > > > index f458258..82ac309 100644 > > > --- a/mk/rte.lib.mk > > > +++ b/mk/rte.lib.mk > > > @@ -40,8 +40,12 @@ VPATH += $(SRCDIR) > > > > > > ifeq ($(RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB),y) > > > LIB := $(patsubst %.a,%.so,$(LIB)) > > > + > > > +CPU_LDFLAGS += --version-script=$(EXPORT_MAP) > > > + > > > endif > > > > > > + > > > _BUILD = $(LIB) > > > _INSTALL = $(INSTALL-FILES-y) $(SYMLINK-FILES-y) $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib/$(LIB) > > > _CLEAN = doclean > > > @@ -160,7 +164,9 @@ endif > > > $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib/$(LIB): $(LIB) > > > @echo " INSTALL-LIB $(LIB)" > > > @[ -d $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib ] || mkdir -p $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib > > > +ifneq ($(LIB),) > > > $(Q)cp -f $(LIB) $(RTE_OUTPUT)/lib > > > +endif > > > > > > # > > > # Clean all generated files > > > -- > > > 1.9.3 > > > > > > > Sergio > >

You are corrected :). The "Default" symbol is implicitly the latest version of the symbol (where the ordinality of the symbol versions is defined by the map file). > As an example, if we were to have three versions of foo the export table of the > DSO should look something like this: > > foo@VER_1.0 > foo@VER_1.1 > foo@@VER_1.2 > > In the above example, foo VER_1.2 is the default one and is such based on the fact that it is ordinally the most recent in the version map file. Its the default symbol because its the latest one according to the map file (and denoted by the double @'s). When linking that is the only symbol visibile to the application being linked. > Effectively we would need two macros VERSION_SYMBOL and DEFAULT_VERSION_SYMBOL > (maybe this name is more appropriate). > Nope, we don't, because as you note above, the default is implicit by the fact that it is ordinally the latest, and the latest version of the symbol is the only version that the linker "sees" when linking new applications. The VERSION_SYMBOL macro exists to tie older binary applications to the older versions of the symbol at _load_ time. > #define VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) \ > __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@DPDK_"SA(v)) > #define DEFAULT_VERSION_SYMBOL(b, e, v) \ > __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@@DPDK_"SA(v)) > Nope.

Lets start a bit further back. Assume we have the following map file: DPDK_1.8 { global: foo; }; And we have this in a C file: void foo(int num) { <implementation for version 1.8> } Then we want to update the foo function to something that is binary incompatible. We would change the version map file as follows: DPDK_1.8 { global: foo; } DPDK_1.9 { global: foo; } DPDK_1.8; That construct makes the linker see DPDK_1.9 ad ordinally "newer" than DPDK_1.8, so symobls that are global in that version are exported rather than their older counterparts in the DPDK_1.8 export set. When the linker links a new application it only links to the latest version Then in the C file we do the following: void foo_v18(int num) { <implementation for version 1.8> } VERSION_SYMBOL(foo, _v18, 1.8); int foo(char *name) { <implementation for version 1.9> } With this change, the new foo function is implicitly matched to version 1.9 in the map file, and thats what gets linked to new application. The VERSION_SYMBOL macro exports an additional symbol, foo@@DPDK_1.9, so that previously built applications, that were linked when the origional version of foo was the latest, will still find the appropriate symbol as foo@@DPDK_1.8 We could in fact something like what you are suggesting, in that we could use the VERSION_SYMBOL macro on every exported function so that we explicitly tied every version of every exported symbol to a statically defined version of the function with a variant name (i.e. we could have a foo_v18, a foo_v19, foo_vX, for every supported API version if you wanted), but that creates alot more work for us. for instance, when doing a non DSO build, you still have to map each symbol to a specfic version, and you have to keep that updated. By doing it the way I did above, the actual function name is always the latest version, and you only have to rename functions if you need to modify the api (I'm working under the assumption that needing to do this is going to be somewhat rare).
