Here is the updated patch to use __SYMBOL_PREFIX.  OK
to install?

Thanks.

a bunch of the elf/ files don't utilize __SYMBOL_PREFIX already.  would be nice 
if we have ASM_SYMBOL_NAME to complement the C_SYMBOL_NAME in libc-symbols.h.  
and maybe a protected_def() macro so you could do:
	protected_def (global);

at any rate, this patch as-is lgtm.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Replace __attribute__((visibility("protected")))

With copy relocation, address of protected data defined in the shared
library may be external.  Compiler shouldn't asssume protected data will
be local.  But due to

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65248

__attribute__((visibility("protected"))) doesn't work correctly, we need
to use asm (".protected xxx") instead.

	* elf/ifuncdep2.c (global): Replace
	__attribute__((visibility("protected"))) with
	asm (".protected " __SYMBOL_PREFIX "global").
	* elf/ifuncmod1.c (global): Likewise.
	* elf/ifuncmod5.c (global): Likewise.
