This change enables symbol versioning by default and also adds SYMBOL_VERSION_SUFFIX as a Makefile option to allow appending a "salt" to the SONAME and all symbols' versions.

Could we get a backport to v1.9.x here?

@staticfloat @gbaraldi What do you think about turning this on by default?

If we go ahead and do that, I'm guessing we'll want a separate change that we won't backport to 1.9?

Can you simplify this PR to only have the version script change for the Makefile?

Sorry, I should have mentioned this in the OP, but f89b147 is the only commit specific to this PR.

The others are carried from the dependency on #49010

Alright, I've added cli/julia.expmap and made the requested changes to #49010

This PR can now be reviewed independently 🙂

LGTM. Can you make sure this is on-by-default, so that release builds have this available? I think you also need to specify -fno-gnu-unique, which disables a GNU extension to ELF as a feature to sometimes miscompile your C++ programs (https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48221), and also check with @vchuravy that this won't break his fix in d8fa3c8. IIUC, that symbol may need to be tagged with the LLVM symbol version, not the Julia symbol version info.

@vtjnash @staticfloat Sure thing. Does that mean we'd also like to change our SONAME format?

Presumably something like libjulia.so.MAJOR.MINOR?

This change adds `DEFAULT_SYMBOL_VERSION` as a Makefile option. If
specified, this will configure the linker to assign the specified
version string to all Julia-exported symbols.

The other half of the mechanism is `#define JL_SYMBOL_VERSION`, which
is used by the ccall machinery to look up symbols by their version + name.
This changes the `.expmap` linker script generation to treat the source
file as a template and uses `sed` to replace strings in that template.

It also does a bit of re-naming, changing the template source to be
`julia.expmap.in` and the output to be `julia.expmap` instead of
`julia.generated.expmap`
This enables symbol versioning by default, with the version string
`JL_LIBJULIA_1.10` (the version suffix is the SOMAJOR in general).

As part of this change, the SOMAJOR has also been changed to be
MAJOR.MINOR instead of just MAJOR. This is required to allow multiple
minor releases of libjulia to live side-by-side in the same process.

`SYMBOL_VERSION_SUFFIX` is provided to allow appending an additional
unique "salt" to SOMAJOR, which can be helpful for creating template
binaries that will be "version-stamped" after distribution.
Also, when `USE_SYSTEM_LLVM=1` compute `LLVM_SHLIB_SYMBOL_VERSION` using
`llvm-config`
