Capitalization mismatch?

# grep -r _Unwind_Complete /usr/main-src/ | more
/usr/main-src/contrib/libcxxrt/unwind-arm.h:void _Unwind_Complete(struct =
_Unwind_Exception *ucbp);

The middle one is an implementation:

_LIBUNWIND_EXPORT void _Unwind_Complete(_Unwind_Exception* =
exception_object) {
  // This is to be called when exception handling completes to give us a =
chance
  // to perform any housekeeping. EHABI #7.2. But we have nothing to do =
here.
  (void)exception_object;

FYI:

         T       A global text symbol.
. . .
         t       A local text symbol.

So:

00017424 t _Unwind_Complete

is a local symbol, not a global one.

As for lang/gcc11 (for example):

# nm /usr/local/lib/gcc11/libgcc_s.so.1 | grep _Unwind_

So for gcc11:

0001c0e4 T _Unwind_Complete

is a global symbol. (It is not the only mismatch.)

As I Remember FreeBSD has had an issue where a particular
toolchain related activity turned some global symbols into
local ones as a side effect. But I do not remember the
details.


The above was after exploring the following . . .

If there a more specific context here?

All FreeBSD platform targets? Just armv7/armv6? Just . . . ?

All toolchains? Just lang/gcc* toolchains? Just devel/llvm* ones?
Just system-clang toolchain?

Just system-clang 11? Just system clang 12?  Just system clang 13? Some
range of those but not all? All?

Just in cross builds via the likes of:

CC=3D/nxb-bin/usr/bin/cc
CPP=3D/nxb-bin/usr/bin/cpp
CXX=3D/nxb-bin/usr/bin/c++
NM=3D/nxb-bin/usr/bin/nm
LD=3D/nxb-bin/usr/bin/ld
. . .

but not for native builds? For both types?


Attempting possible answers . . .

Finding that www/nift seemed to be an example, it only seems
to fail for armv7(/armv6?). Building in a context with direct
armv7 code execution fails, so not cross build specific.
It used the system clang toolchain.

Freshports indicates that the last build for FreeBSD:12:armv7
was of 2.3.10 back in early 2020-Dec or so (quarterly). No
armv6 builds are shown and no other armv7 builds are shown.

Modern 2.4.11 builds show for amd64, aarch64, and i386,
going back to FreeBSD:11:*. Even FreeBSD:14:powerpc64 (latest)
and FreeBSD:13:powerpc64 (quarterly) have such. (powerpc64
does not have latest any more for FreeBSD:13:powerpc64. It
used to. Thus the old version listed for that context.)

How well this matches with what you reference, I can not
tell. But it suggest something associated with the
armv7 toolchain is involved.
