[Minios-devel] [UNIKRAFT PATCH 0/4] Introduce POSIX libdl library

[Costin Lupu <costin.lupu@xxxxxxxxx>]

This series introduces the Unikraft libdl implementation. libdl is used for
explicitly loading dynamic libraries. Unikraft does not support dynamic linking
yet, currently all the libraries are statically linked. Therefore, for now, we
add only stubs.

libdl is used by a great number of libraries and will be needed for the
upcoming ports of Ruby and v8 engines and OpenSSL libraries.

The series also introduce a new naming convention for internal libraries which
provide POSIX APIs: adding the 'posix-' prefix before the library name. If
accepted, this new convention should be applied for existing internal libraries
which fit this classification, e.g. `ukunistd`.

Costin Lupu (4):
  lib/posix-libdl: Introduce POSIX libdl library skeleton
  lib/posix-libdl: Import dlfcn.h from musl
  lib/posix-libdl: Adapt dlfcn.h
  lib/posix-libdl: Add stubs
