You have added the extra symbols under 'IBVERBS_1.1', but this section
already includes 'IBVERBS_1.0' at part of its definition in the map
file.

Each section only defines the smybols for a single symbol version.

For example 'ibv_destroy_srq' now appears twice in both 1.0 and 1.1.

Correct - ibv_destroy_srq has two symbols and must appear twice in the
map file:

debian/libibverbs1.symbols: ibv_destroy_srq@IBVERBS_1.0 1.1.6
debian/libibverbs1.symbols: ibv_destroy_srq@IBVERBS_1.1 1.1.6

libibverbs/compat-1_0.c:COMPAT_SYMVER_FUNC(ibv_destroy_srq, 1_0, "IBVERBS_1.0",
libibverbs/verbs.c:LATEST_SYMVER_FUNC(ibv_destroy_srq, 1_1, "IBVERBS_1.1",

Why current map file is not well-defined without this patch ?

Every stanza should list every symobl defined for the varsion.


Agree, so this patch comes to improve/fix the original patch [1] from 2007 which introduced 'IBVERBS_1.1' and relied on the linker with the symvers mechanism, correct ?
