X-Git-Tag: syslinux-5.00-pre1~52
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a9c7002d9428c0d48b74a8c3835a724a39043daf;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fsyslinux.git

elf_gen_dep.sh: Prioritise symbols exported by core

It's possible for multiple modules to export the same symbol. We
always favour the symbols exported from core/ because this means that
modules will have less runtime dependencies.

For example, some symbols required by ldlinux.c32 are exported by both
core/ and libmenu.c32. Because we don't want ldlinux.c32 to have any
dependencies, we need to make sure we resolve to the symbol exported
by core/.

Note that now the order in which we extract global symbols from ELF
files in elf_gen_dep.sh is important, because this dictates our order
of preference and hence core/isolinux.elf and core/pxelinux.elf need
to come first.
