musl - an implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems

Rich Felker 5fe38516f7 use private maps even for read-only segments of FDPIC libraries
the nommu kernel shares memory when it can anyway for private
read-only maps, but semantically the map should be private. this can
make a difference when debugging breakpoints are to be used, in which
case the kernel may need to ensure that the mapping is not shared.

the new behavior matches how the kernel FDPIC loader maps the main
program and/or program interpreter (dynamic linker) binary.

    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:
