I think you got my problem, but let me clear why foo() is getting
called out of liby.so
When I'm passing only one argument?
foo() in liby.so expecting 2 argument foo(Y st_y, double val) but I'm
calling foo('c') from main()
Switching to C++ is out of picture, it's legacy code and colossal code base.

Thanks for this idea, I have tested by renaming function and works as expected.

Sorry it's my bad I just wrote sample code to test, in real code we do
have function declarations.
Thanks
