Rich Felker d56460c939 unify static and dynamic linked implementations of thread-local storage
this both allows removal of some of the main remaining uses of the
SHARED macro and clears one obstacle to static-linked dlopen support,
which may be added at some point in the future.

specialized single-TLS-module versions of __copy_tls and __reset_tls
are removed and replaced with code adapted from their dynamic-linked
versions, capable of operating on a whole chain of TLS modules, and
use of the dynamic linker's DSO chain (which contains large struct dso
objects) by these functions is replaced with a new chain of struct
tls_module objects containing only the information needed for
implementing TLS. this may also yield some performance benefit
initializing TLS for a new thread when a large number of modules
without TLS have been loaded, since since there is no need to walk
structures for modules without TLS.

    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:
