add a member of appropriate type to the fpos_t union so that accesses are well-defined. use long long instead of off_t since off_t is not always exposed in stdio.h and there's no namespace-clean alias for it. access is still performed using pointer casts rather than by naming the union member as a matter of style; to the extent possible, the naming of fields in opaque types defined in the public headers is not treated as an API contract with the implementation. access via the pointer cast is valid as long as the union has a member of matching type.
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
