C23 const-generic APIs

C23 const-generic APIs

Hi Rich,

I was wondering if musl will implement C23 const-generic APIs, such as

	QChar *strchr(QChar *s, int c);

and if there are any issues why you haven't done it yet.  If you lack
time, I could have a look at it.  I was just wondering if you oppose to
it for some reason.


Have a lovely day!
Alex

Alex,
I submitted a series of patches for C23 support in musl about two
years ago. If I understood correctly at that time there was not enough
priority to include them immediately. This concerned most C23 library
changes with an exception for the `<math.h>` interfaces, for which I
am really not an expert. Also, I have no idea if these still aply
cleanly to current musl.

Now that major compilers are switching to C23 per default, it might be
a time to reconsider these patches.

Thanks
Jₑₙₛ
