What happened

The official source reports this update: b11120: vulkan: hide internal symbols to prevent duplicate-dlopen state destruction. vulkan: hide internal symbols to prevent duplicate-dlopen state destruction ( #29139 ) Since #28732 our internal symbols are exported. A duplicate copy dlopened and dlclosed by ggml_backend_load_all() then interposes them, so its destructors destroy the live vk_instance and later device queries hit the GGML_ASSERT on vk_instance.device_indices. Hidden visibility exports only GGML_BACKEND_API, as before #28732 .
