I couldn't find anything like that in either musl or uClibc-ng.
So I updated the above rootfs and put the following program
into it as /bin/test-auxv:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/auxv.h>

int main()
{
       unsigned long p = getauxval(AT_EXECFN);
       fprintf(stderr, "AT_EXECFN: 0x%lx\n", p);
       if (p)
               fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", (const char *)p);
       return 0;
}

While looking at it I also noticed that /proc/<pid>/auxv is empty
on NOMMU, looks like there will be yet another fix for that.
