CFI (call frame information) generation support has also been added for x86_64 asm, improving debugging backtraces, especially when a program is stopped during a syscall. Several toolchain and application compatibility improvements have been made, most notably in regards to the new byte-based C locale, where nl_langinfo(CODESET) now returns "ASCII" rather than "UTF-8-CODE-UNITS"; the latter broke many applications which assumed the returned string would be a meaningful, well-known character encoding name. Bugs fixed include deadlock at exit when stdin or stdout was closed, a missing memory barrier in pthread_join, and minor corner case bugs in various interfaces. http://www.musl-libc.org/releases/musl-1.1.12.tar.gz http://www.musl-libc.org/releases/musl-1.1.12.tar.gz.asc Special thanks to musl's release sponsors (patreon.com/musl): * Les Aker * Kelsey Hightower * Hurricane Labs (hurricanelabs.com) * Justin Cormack * The Midipix Project (midipix.org)
