This bug was fixed in the package klibc - 2.0.7-1ubuntu1

---------------
klibc (2.0.7-1ubuntu1) focal; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    * Fix FTBFS on eoan and later with new gcc
      - cf-protection.patch: Disable cf-protection for syscalls stub.

  * save-argc.patch: when build with gcc-9 linux-5.3, calling ioctl,
    clears global argc, thus save it, to compare to it later. Otheriwse
    losetup -f is broken LP: #1850184

klibc (2.0.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Ben Hutchings ]
  * New upstream version:
    - klcc: Enable stripping even if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is enabled
    - run-init: Allow the initramfs to be persisted across root changes
      (thanks to Matthew Garrett)
    - ipconfig: Implement support -d ...:dns0:dns1 options (Closes: #931416)
    - Kbuild: Work around broken "ar s" in binutils 2.32 (see #941921)
  * debian/rules: Reorganise make flags variables
  * debian/rules: Define ARCH for klibc, for all architectures
  * debian/rules: Delete redundant architecture mappings
  * debian/rules: Delete redundant export
  * klibc-utils: Trigger update-initramfs on install/upgrade
  * initramfs-tools: Don't install commands that already exist in /sbin
  * initramfs-tools: Exclude kinit and zcat commands earlier
  * initramfs-tools: Exclude gzip command
  * Drop "resume: Backward compatibility for resume_offset", which will
    not be needed in the next release
  * [klibc] fstype: Drop obsolete support for "ext4dev" (Closes: #932926)
  * debian/control: Set Maintainer to Debian Kernel Team; move maks to
    Uploaders

  [ James Clarke ]
  * debian/control: Restrict m4 build dependency to just sparc

  [ Helmut Grohne ]
  * Honour DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck. (Closes: #922814)

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/losetup -vf, which appears to be missbuilt,
  as main(argc) is reset to zero, after ioctl() operations in a function
  call, quite unexpectadly.

  [Test Case]

   * $ sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/losetup -vf
  Loop device is /dev/loop20
  loop: can't get info on device /dev/loop20: No such device or address

  is bad.

  Note that ioctl() must succeed, thus loop0 device must be configured
  to trigger the bug.

  
  [Regression Potential]

   * klibc is quite special, as it uses linux kernel headers/assembly.
  It seems like there is incompatibility between klibc sources, and
  gcc-9 with linux-5.3 when used to build userspace programmes.

   * disabling cf-protection and stack-clash-protection did not help.

   * building with gcc-8 does not exhibit the problem.

   * the workaround is quite simple in the code, keep a copy of argc to
  compare to it later in the code.
