mips n32 has 32-bit long, and generally uses long syscall arguments and return values, but provides only SYS_lseek, not SYS_llseek. we have some framework (syscall_arg_t, added for x32) to make syscall arguments 64-bit in such a setting, but it's not clear whether this could match the sign-extension semantics needed for 32-bit args to all the other syscalls, and we don't have any existing mechanism to allow the return value of syscalls to be something other than long. instead, just provide a custom mipsn32 version of the lseek function doing its own syscall asm with 64-bit arguments. as a result of commit 03919b26ed41c31876db41f7cee076ced4513fad, stdio will also get the new code, fixing fseeko/ftello too.
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
