musl libc - a new standard library to power a new generation of
|
|
Linux-based devices. musl is lightweight, fast, simple, free, and
|
|
strives to be correct in the sense of standards-conformance and
|
|
safety.
|
|
|
|
musl is an alternative to glibc, eglibc, uClibc, dietlibc, and klibc.
|
|
For reasons why one might prefer musl, please see the FAQ and libc
|
|
comparison chart on the project website,

For installation instructions, see the INSTALL file.

|
|
Please refer to the COPYRIGHT file for details on the copyright status
|
|
of code included in musl, and the COPYING file for the license (LGPL)
|
|
under which the library as a whole is distributed.

Greetings libc hackers!
|
|
|
|
This package is an _alpha_ release of musl, intended for the curious
|
|
and the adventurous. While it can be used to build a complete small
|
|
Linux system (musl is self-hosted on the system I use to develop it),
|
|
at this point doing so requires a lot of manual effort. Nonetheless, I
|
|
hope low-level Linux enthusiasts will try out building some compact
|
|
static binaries with musl using the provided gcc wrapper (which allows
|
|
you to link programs with musl on a "standard" glibc Linux system),
|
|
find whatever embarassing bugs I've let slip through, and provide
|
|
feedback on issues encountered building various software against musl.
|
|
|
|
For bug reports, support requests, or to get involved in development,
|
|
please visit #musl on Freenode IRC or subscribe to the musl mailing
|
|
list by sending a blank email to musl-subscribe AT lists DOT openwall
|
|
DOT com.
|
|
|
|
Thank you for trying out musl.
|
|
|
|
Cheers,
|
