glibc, the GNU C Library, is a core component of most Linux distributions. It provides the standard C functions that give software access to system resources such as files, memory, processes, and networking—ensuring a consistent interface across platforms. Since its first release in 1992, glibc has been maintained by the GNU project and remains a foundational, LGPL‑licensed building block for countless Linux applications.
