🎉 systemd Lands Experimental Support For musl libc - Phoronix

「 Systemd today finally merged support for building against and using the musl libc library. This is a win for Linux distributions like postmarketOS, Alpine Linux, and others that use musl by default as their standard C library or offer it as an option. 」

Коробка багов (взрывается): кроссплатформенное коварство

В сентябре мы рассматривали релиз 86Box v5.0, приуроченный к тридцати годам со дня выхода в розничную продажу Windows 95, и пообещали показать ещё кое-что. О чём мы сознательно умолчали, и почему оставили находку для отдельной статьи? Что осталось в "коробке"?

This is freaking GENIOUS! I'd say the holy grail of both #static and #dynamic #linking, providing the benefits of both. Can't wait to test it in some real projects.

Oh, look! Another "groundbreaking" static version of adb for the elite crowd 😏. Because who wouldn’t want to clog their feed with a static build powered by libc? 🚀 Meanwhile, the GitHub is desperately trying to make it all sound useful. 😂

Thomas WEISSSCHUH presented at kernel recipe 2025 #nolibc a minimalist #libc included in kernel. Headers files are in the kernel source tree and it grown a lot since linux-5.1 initial version, but not installed in system (at least on Arch Linux).

Example given during the conference:
__
hello.c:
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
printf("Hello World!\n");

return 0;
}
To compile it (you can notice relative path for includes here, I stll have to add `-I/usr/include as last -I` (include path) to have it working (from root of Linux source tree):
cc -nostdinc -nostdlib -static -Iusr/include -Itools/include/nolibc/ -I/usr/include hello.c -o hello
./hello 
Hello World!

folks who do smart things with multiprocessing models like Go and Chromium usually don't want C libraries potentially stepping on their toes. Oh gosh threads. The day I figure out how to do those, will be day the whole world will want to use this thing. But I want people who use Cosmopolitan #Libc to know what value it's providing them. I think the best way to do that is by raising awareness of the systems engineering fundamentals like this. Because that's something you're right to point out that the #Linux community leadership has room for improvement on.

@MichaelRoss something I have been trying to look for is a that isn't depending on or another implementation, the reason is there was some malware that attached itself to glibc and prevented you to see the directories and files it used and also the process directory in /proc
Had you a ls that wasn't built with glibc, then all the files and directories would be listed.

[Перевод] Ужасное состояние двоичной совместимости Linux (и что с ним делать)

Двоичная совместимость в Linux омрачена одним аспектом, который часто упускаю из виду при рассмотрении выпуска ПО для Linux. В этой статье я расскажу, как можно увидеть этот аспект, как решать эту проблему при выпуске современного ПО и что же именно нужно сделать, чтобы устранить её полностью.

I kind of wish there was a version of Alpine that was libc based - just for desktop NVIDIA support really.

Since the value returned by `time(2)` is corrected for leap seconds by NTP (for good reason, but still), time doesn't mean anything since it isn't doesn't represent a unique instant, which also means you can't do math with it (which you need to do for timezone correction).

I.e. as long as everything you're building upon is based off `CLOCK_REALTIME`, you are working with a shaky framework of heuristics
