<h4 class="subsection">3.5.2 HIDDEN</h4>
<p><a name="index-HIDDEN-447"></a>For ELF targeted ports, define a symbol that will be hidden and won't be
exported. The syntax is <code>HIDDEN(</code><var>symbol</var><code> = </code><var>expression</var><code>)</code>.
<p>Here is the example from <a href="Simple-Assignments.html#Simple-Assignments">Simple Assignments</a>, rewritten to use
<code>HIDDEN</code>:
<pre class="smallexample"> HIDDEN(floating_point = 0);
SECTIONS
{
.text :
{
*(.text)
HIDDEN(_etext = .);
}
HIDDEN(_bdata = (. + 3) &amp; ~ 3);
.data : { *(.data) }
}
</pre>
<p class="noindent">In this case none of the three symbols will be visible outside this module.
