-
-From:	 Kevin Bortis <pkgs@bortis.ch>
-
-The attached patch fixes issues with musl libc on linux. musl does
-implement the POSIX 2008 standard termios.h on linux and does not
-include the non standard interface termio.h.
-
-The problem with dlinfo does no longer exists, since musl has
-implemented the required interface.
-
-This closes #2823 for me.
-
-Tested version:
-musl libc: 0.9.13
-openssl git: 1769dfab06dcf93a1c310ca7ea9531afcc448d0a
-
-Comparison of termios.h implementation on linux:
-
-glibc 2.17: does implement termios.h, passes make test
-musl 0.9.13: does implement termios.h, passes make test
-uClibc 0.9.33.2: does implement termios.h, not tested
-dietlibc 0.33: does implement termios.h, not tested
-
-I don't know the reason why termio.h is prefered on linux, since
-termios.h is generally prefered and implemented by all major libc
-implementations.
-
-Regards
-Kevin
