I'm trying to link a new library to my project libnvinfer_builder_resource.so.8.5.1, but I got this error when running it.
bazel-out/host/bin/gen_trt_ops_py_wrappers_cc: error while loading shared libraries: do_not_link_against_nvinfer_builder_resource: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
and ldd shows that it's actually linking a strange library instead of the one I added
do_not_link_against_nvinfer_builder_resource => not found .
I debugged this a bit by enabling verbose logging for linker (tried both lld and gold), and they both show the correct library is found and linked.

And by searching I can't find any log about do_not_link_against_nvinfer_builder_resource .
So I'm wondering why linker links the correct libnvinfer_builder_resource.so.8.5.1, but it becomes do_not_link_against_nvinfer_builder_resource in the ldd?
It's because the author of TensorRT used a hack to add a do_not_link_against_nvinfer_builder_resource to libnvinfer_builder_resource.so.8.5.1. We can confirm this with readelf -d libnvinfer_builder_resource.so.8.5.1
