Rich Felker 0e0e49421f simplify/shrink relocation processing in dynamic linker stage 1
the outer-loop approach made sense when we were also processing
DT_JMPREL, which might be in REL or RELA form, to avoid major code
duplication. commit 09db855b35 removed
processing of DT_JMPREL, and in the remaining two tables, the format
(REL or RELA) is known by the name of the table. simply writing two
versions of the loop results in smaller and simpler code.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
