depending on the compiler's interpretation of __asm__ register names for register class objects, it may be possible for the return value in r2 to be clobbered by the function call to __stat_fix. I have not observed any such breakage in normal builds and suspect it only happens with -O0 or other unusual build options, but since there's an ambiguity as to the semantics of this feature, it's best to use an explicit temporary to avoid the issue. based on reporting and patch by Eugene.
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:
