Most everyone using musl patches the linux headers instead, but various software uses a local workaround like the one added in this commit (psutils, for example). It's not obvious to me which project has the "bug", and I'm reluctant to even propose modifying our headers without clear answer on the issue. Also, modifying those headers triggers rebuild-all-the-things. Hopefully upstream projects sort this out, in the meantime adding this define is a bit of a kludge but does the job. ------- For the curious, the patch usually is something like this: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3833241/ Here's an updated version that also ensures kernel users get the sysinfo struct as expected too: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openwrt/openwrt/e3c43ade0bae9491aeea50fa361e846bb5002dc0/target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/270-uapi-kernel.h-glibc-specific-inclusion-of-sysinfo.h.patch (cherry picked from commit dtzWill/nixpkgs@91b5f5a463)
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
