| // Extern "C" is used due to the usage of dlopen() for loading IPMI handlers |
| // and IPMI blob handlers. This happens in two steps: |
| // |
| // 1) ipmid loads all libraries in /usr/lib/ipmid-providers from its |
| // loadLibraries() function using dlopen(). |
| // 2) The blobs library, libblobcmds.so, loads all libraries in |
| // /usr/lib/blobs-ipmid from its loadLibraries() function. It uses dlsym() |
| // to locate the createHandler function by its un-mangled name |
| // "createHandler". Using extern "C" prevents its name from being mangled |
| // into, for example, "_Z13createHandlerv". |
