+## Nowadays, utmp/wtmp is not supported by musl libc.
+## Ref: https://wiki.musl-libc.org/faq.html#Q:_Why_is_the_utmp/wtmp_functionality_only_implemented_as_stubs?
+
+## utmp-specific notes:
+## In musl, pututline() and related functions are all stubs, and login(), logout() and ttyslot() don't exist.
+## In Dropbear there is an option to write to utmp directly, but it uses ttyslot().
+## So, there is currently no way to make utmp work with musl.
+## Revisit this if/when Dropbear implements ttyslot() or an independent utmp direct write.
