musl - an implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems
syscall numbers are now synced up across targets (starting from 403 the numbers are the same on all targets other than an arch specific offset) IPC syscalls sem*, shm*, msg* got added where they were missing (except for semop: only semtimedop got added), the new semctl, shmctl, msgctl imply IPC_64, see linux commit 0d6040d4681735dfc47565de288525de405a5c99 arch: add split IPC system calls where needed new 64bit time_t syscall variants got added on 32bit targets, see linux commit 48166e6ea47d23984f0b481ca199250e1ce0730a y2038: add 64-bit time_t syscalls to all 32-bit architectures new async io syscalls got added, see linux commit 2b188cc1bb857a9d4701ae59aa7768b5124e262e Add io_uring IO interface linux commit edafccee56ff31678a091ddb7219aba9b28bc3cb io_uring: add support for pre-mapped user IO buffers a new syscall got added that uses the fd of /proc/<pid> as a stable handle for processes: allows sending signals without pid reuse issues, intended to eventually replace rt_sigqueueinfo, kill, tgkill and rt_tgsigqueueinfo, see linux commit 3eb39f47934f9d5a3027fe00d906a45fe3a15fad signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall on some targets (arm, m68k, s390x, sh) some previously missing syscall numbers got added as well. |

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: http://www.musl-libc.org/
