+Subject: [PATCH] Allow avro C to be built on musl based systems.
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+The type `ssize_t` is defined in sys/types.h, and nowhere else
+in the musl standard C library, so it should be included for the
+compilation to succeed.
+
+This fixes several errors like:
+
+    In file included from src/generic.c:29:0:
+    src/generic.c: In function ‘avro_generic_value_new’:
+    src/avro_generic_internal.h:63:39:
+        error: ‘ssize_t’ undeclared (first use in this function);
+               did you mean ‘size_t’?
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport

-Subject: [PATCH] avro-c: Fix build with clang compiler
-
-Clang advertizes itself to be compatible with gcc 4.2.1
-while that was true several years ago, it now supports
-a lot more newer features, the test to just check gcc
-version should be supplanted with clang check as well
-so atomic support in clang can be asserted as well
-
-Fixes
