What changed, and why it matters
This is a build-system patch that lets the Rust part of Monero compile correctly when targeting Linux systems that use the lightweight 'musl' C library (common in Docker containers). It adds a check so the build picks the right Rust toolchain variant. There is no indication this changes any runtime behavior, cryptographic logic, or network code.
No security action needed; treat as ordinary build fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit modifies src/fcmp_pp/fcmp_pp_rust/CMakeLists.txt to detect CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET containing ‘musl’ and set RUST_TOOLCHAIN to ‘-musl’. Previously the toolchain selection only handled glibc-based armv7. This is a build-configuration fix for musl-based Docker/toolchain targets; it does not alter fcmp_pp cryptographic code, consensus rules, or runtime security boundaries.
