Rich Felker b6a6cd703f fix dynamic linker regression processing R_*_NONE type relocations
commit f3ddd17380 inadvertently removed
the early check for "none" type relocations, causing the address
dso->base+0 to be dereferenced to obtain an addend. shared libraries,
(including libc.so) and PIE executables were unaffected, since their
base addresses are the actual address of their mappings and are
readable. non-PIE main executables, however, have a base address of 0
because their load addresses are absolute and not offset at load time.

in practice none-type relocations do not arise with toolchains that
are in use except on mips, and on mips it's moderately rare for a
non-PIE executable to have a relocation table, since the mips-specific
got processing serves in its place for most purposes.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
