Subject: [musl] pthread_getspecific(3) with negative key
Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2020 11:59:16 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fc13f251-29fb-1e56-8b30-89afc0515e85@bell-sw.com> (raw)

Hello,

The pthread_getspecific(3) specification describes:
   "The pthread_getspecific() function shall return the thread-specific 
data value associated with the given key. If no thread-specific data 
value is associated with key, then the value NULL shall be returned. "

The glibc version pthread_getspecific(3) returns NULL for the negative 
key value.
The musl version does not check key bounds [1].
Is it intentional behavior?

Thanks,
Alexander.
