Ulrich Drepper's shared libraries guide recirculates among developers

Original: How To Write Shared Libraries (2011) https://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/sergey/cs108/ABI/UlrichDrepper-How-To-Write-Shared-Lib

Ulrich Drepper's 2011 paper 'How To Write Shared Libraries' is being shared again among software engineers. The document, written by the former GNU C Library maintainer, remains a definitive reference on ELF ABI details, symbol visibility and writing efficient shared libraries for Linux systems.

Why now: Developers continue to treat it as the canonical deep-dive on shared library design, prompting periodic reshares.
