I am currently in the process of packaging wasmtime for void linux, a distribution which supports multiple architectures and musl as an alternative to glibc.

Reading the following code, it looks like wasmtime is intended to support aarch64 on linux.

https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/blob/0387169934e91722b8b6819773eacc6893718296/crates/runtime/src/traphandlers.rs#L158-L172

It builds fine for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu but fails for aarch64-unknown-linux-musl with the following error:
error[E0412]: cannot find type `ucontext_t` in crate `libc`

libc misses ucontext_t on aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.

glibc: https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/blob/035a4809428d319e72ff1aaae5c5335f18623836/src/unix/linux_like/linux/gnu/b64/aarch64/align.rs
musl: https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/blob/035a4809428d319e72ff1aaae5c5335f18623836/src/unix/linux_like/linux/musl/b64/aarch64/align.rs

I see that the issue has been patched and is resolved if I upgrade to the latest version of the libc crate, but then I come across this issue here:
I tried building wasmtime for aarch64-unknown-linux-musl and I came across the following issue:
error[E0609]: no field `pc` on type `libc::mcontext_t`
   --> crates/runtime/src/traphandlers.rs:166:36
    |
166 |                     cx.uc_mcontext.pc as *const u8
    |                                    ^^ unknown field

error: aborting due to previous error
Like @ifreund, building for the x86_64-unknown-linux-musl target works just fine. Any pointers on where to look? Thanks

On aarch64-unknown-linux-musl libc doesn't expose any fields for mcontext_t: https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/blob/c9ff3e9b4e49b1a1c8482fc409177615dce6b84c/src/unix/linux_like/linux/musl/b64/aarch64/align.rs#L19 This will require a change to the libc crate.

I'm having the same issue of @pmengelbert, is there any way to workaround for now? For instance fork libc and apply some patch. I'd test and open the PR myself if anyone can point me what to write. Should I just copy over this lines?

something along https://gist.github.com/lu-zero/e770b7c3c01277a7ccac51b2af692632 should fix it.

https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/2000 has been merged, @bjorn3 would be possible to update the libc version in wasmtime so that we can avoid patching it?
