    This one causes build warnings on all archs but x86_64:

    /f/tc/nolibc/gcc-11.3.0-nolibc/aarch64-linux/bin/aarch64-linux-gcc -Os -fno-ident -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -s -o nolibc-test \
    -nostdlib -static -Isysroot/arm64/include nolibc-test.c -lgcc

    from nolibc-test.c:15:
    sysroot/arm64/include/types.h:27: note: this is the location of the previous definition

    This is caused by the definitions for S_IF* and S_IS* in types.h. However
    if I remove them I'm seeing x86_64 fail on S_IFCHR not defined. The root
    cause is that the x86_64 toolchain falls back to /usr/include for the
    include_next <limits.h> that others do not do (probably that when built
    it thought it was a native compiler instead of a cross-compiler). I'm
    apparently able to work around this by ifdefing out the definitions but
    it makes me feel like I'm hiding the dust under the carpet. Instead I'm
    thinking of reusing Vincent's work who added stdint and the definitions
    for the various INT*MAX values that are normally found in limits.h and
    providing our own limits.h so that this issue is globally addressed.

    I'm going to experiment a little bit about this and will propose something
    once I'm satisfied with a solution that we can queue for 6.4. Most likely
    it will involve merging a variant of Vincent's series first, a few changes
    to have limits.h then your series.

    Best regards,
    Willy
