musl is a relatively new libc implementation for Linux oriented towards applications where robustness, small size, and low runtime overhead matter. Compared to uclibc, it offers much better support for threads and other modern features, permissive (MIT) licensing, active development, and many other technical advantages. This presentation will focus on musl as an alternative to uclibc in embedded development, including motivations for switching, differences developers need to be aware of before switching to musl, and the status of musl adoption in toolchains and distributions.
