previously, only archs that needed to do stack cleanup defined a __cp_cancel label for acting on cancellation in their syscall asm, and a default definition was provided by a weak alias to __cancel, the C function. this resulted in wrong codegen for arm on gcc versions affected by pr 68178 and possibly similar issues (like pr 66609) on other archs, and also created an inconsistency where the __cp_begin and __cp_end labels were treated as const data but __cp_cancel was treated as a function. this in turn caused incorrect code generation on archs where function pointers point to function descriptors rather than code (for now, only sh/fdpic).
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
