Without
extern
, the changed lines are not declarations, but "tentative definitions" (according to GCC man page, option-fcommon
). When specified in a header file that is included in more than one.c
file, these result in linking failure unless-fcommon
is specified.GCC 10 changed the default from
-fcommon
to-fno-common
, and as such the previous code no longer links properly.With
extern
, these lines are considered declarations, and the linking proceeds successfully.
