none of these are actual textrels because of ld-time binding performed by -Bsymbolic-functions, but I'm changing them with the goal of making ld-time binding purely an optimization rather than relying on it for semantic purposes. in the case of memmove's call to memcpy, making it explicit that the memmove asm is assuming the forward-copying behavior of the memcpy asm is desirable anyway; in case memcpy is ever changed, the semantic mismatch would be apparent while editing memmcpy.s.
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:
