[Fuchsia] Build with -fvisibility=default (#67067)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There was an issue with relative vtables when two TU's which define the
same vtable object are built with different default visibilities. Some
TU's are built with -fvisibility=hidden in the code base, grep for
CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET to find them. Our whole toolchain, is
statically linked, and built with -fPIE anyway, so the cost of
overriding local CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET properties is not high.
I've counted that adding this flag increases our llvm binary by 13
relocations. Frankly I'm not sure where those are even coming from.

It would be preferable to use hidden visibility, but that breaks liblld.
This can be solved by setting LLDB_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS. After that some
ORC tests fail which do symbolic lookup in the tests. It seems that
setting CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET=hidden will not be worth the
maintenance burden. Setting it to default works to unblock using
relative vtables, so we can just go with that.
