[llvm-dev] DynamicLibraryTest fails with musl libc

[Marvin Schmidt via llvm-dev]

Hi all,

on Exherbo (we have downstream patches to adjust some paths to our
directory structures, not sure if that's relevant here though) I'm
seeing the
following test failure on a x86_64-pc-linux-musl system (tests pass
fine on a system glibc system):

 [==========] Running 1 test from 1 test case.
 [----------] Global test environment set-up.

I see that Alpine Linux has a patch[1] that disables the
DynamicLibrary test because `dlclose` is a noop according to the
commit message. Is that test
supposed to work on musl systems? If so, any clues why it would fail
in my configuration? I'd appreciate any input on this and be happy to
dig deeper and
provide more information if necessary

Best regards,
Marvin
