GPLv3 glibcGPLv3 glibcPosted Jan 4, 2008 3:15 UTC (Fri) by dmag (subscriber, #17775)In reply to: GPLv3 glibc by jimparis Parent article: Wild predictions for 2008
Nowadays, Flash is cheaper than ROM for all but the smallest microcontrollers (like 8 bit size). GlibC is huge, so it doesn't make sense to put it in ROM. If it's in flash, they're going to leave themselves a way to write it (even if it's just thru JTAG). Therefore it's unlikely anyone distributes a completely non-writable GlibC (or even Linux kernel for that matter).
