Timo Teräs commented on ASTERISK-24515:
---------------------------------------

Related to ASTERISK-15490. But this is about the fact that ALL TCP-connections are now UNUSABLE with Solaris, Cygwin, and non-glibc Linux systems. So this is a major regression in portability. It seems Asterisk 12-branch is also affected.

> The fix for AST-2014-007 made Asterisk 13 and newer use non-portable.
> The code now relies on fopencookie() (GNU extension) or funopen() (BSD / OSX extension) for any kind of TCP-socket. Previously fdopen() was used which is standard compliant function. What is worse, the code compiles, but the functionality is crippled.
> This means the TCP-socket core is now unusable for multiple platforms e.g. Solaris, Cygwin, and Linux systems not using glibc (e.g. Alpine Linux using musl as C-library).
