Hi Ichiroh, we do not use the XLC 13 compiler on AIX yet here at SAP and I believe nobody of my colleagues has played with it yet. So you are on a new playground here 😊
However, I believe the idea in OpenJDK with the abolition of map files is that symbols should be invisible externally unless they are declared exported, e.g. JNIEXPORT. So I would think "-qvisibility=hidden" should be the correct default and whatever JNIEXPORT expands to should contain the right attributes to get that symbol visible. Can you check if either my assumption is completely wrong, JNIEXPORT does not expand to the right thing, XLC 13 has a bug or maybe just sume specific required symbols are not declared correctly?
