musl - an implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems
2462370b4f
this is always an error and usually results from failure to find/link the compiler runtime library, but it could also result from implementation errors in libc, using functions that don't (yet) exist. either way the resulting libc.so will crash mysteriously at runtime. the crash happens too early to produce a meaningful error, so these crashes are very confusing to users and waste a lot of debugging time. this commit should ensure that they do not happen. |

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
