<p>For ELF targeted ports, define a symbol that will be hidden and won&rsquo;t be
exported. The syntax is <code>HIDDEN(<var>symbol</var> = <var>expression</var>)</code>.
</p>
<p>Here is the example from <a href="Simple-Assignments.html#Simple-Assignments">Simple Assignments</a>, rewritten to use
<code>HIDDEN</code>:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample">HIDDEN(floating_point = 0);
SECTIONS
{
.text :
{
*(.text)
HIDDEN(_etext = .);
}
HIDDEN(_bdata = (. + 3) &amp; ~ 3);
.data : { *(.data) }
}
</pre></div>
<p>In this case none of the three symbols will be visible outside this module.
