[libvirt] [PATCH] util: avoid symbol clash between json libraries

Daniel P. Berrangé berrange at redhat.com
Tue Jul 31 14:55:28 UTC 2018


The jansson and json-glib libraries both export symbols with a json_
name prefix and json_object_iter_next() clashes between them.

Unfortunately json_glib is linked in by GTK, so any app using GTK and
libvirt will get a clash, resulting in SEGV. This also affects the NSS
module provided by libvirt

Instead of directly linking to jansson, use dlopen() with the RTLD_LOCAL
flag which allows us to hide the symbols from the application that loads
libvirt or the NSS module.

Some preprocessor black magic and wrapper functions are used to redirect
calls into the dlopen resolved symbols.
