Glibc

glibc is a standard library for the C programming language developed by the GNU project along with GCC. Not only does it support functions commonly found in C standard libraries such as open, malloc and printf but also provides more useful functions as well. In-line assembly language code are embedded to improve runtime performance.

It is generally considered the most complete, robust and portable C library ever created.

The latest version of glibc is 2.3.2.
