From Brendan Heading: You may be aware of the musl C-library implementation, which tries to be strictly standards compliant, avoids non-standard extensions, etc. Some distributions have adopted it as their standard C library, in others (such as buildroot) it is a configuration alternative. Vanilla lm-sensors does not compile under musl, due to the following excerpt which appears in four different places. The code is checking that the glibc version is greater than 2.0. #if defined(__GLIBC__) && __GLIBC__ == 2 && __GLIBC_MINOR__ >= 0 #include <sys/io.h> #else #include <asm/io.h> #endif This fails under musl does not define __GLIBC__ (in fact, by design, it doesn't provide any way to identify itself at all) - which causes it to try to include <asm/io.h> rather than <sys/io.h>. It's a long time since glibc 2.0.1 was released - 1997. Accordingly, it seems to make little sense at this stage to try to retain compatibility with very old libcs - so maybe it should be removed entirely.
