"""If possible, exports all symbols with RTLD_GLOBAL.

Note that this file is only imported by pywrap_tensorflow.py if this is a static
build (meaning there is no explicit framework cc_binary shared object dependency
of _pywrap_tensorflow_internal.so). For regular (non-static) builds, RTLD_GLOBAL
is not necessary, since the dynamic dependencies of custom/contrib ops are
explicit.

# keeps all the symbol private and not visible to other libraries that may be
# loaded. Setting the mode to RTLD_GLOBAL to make the symbols visible, so that
# custom op libraries imported using `tf.load_op_library()` can access symbols
# defined in _pywrap_tensorflow.so.
