2003-10-30Patch from Dmitry Zakharov,Glenn L McGrath
Fixes two bugs: - END block didn't execute after an exit() call - huge memory consumption and performance degradation on large input (now performance is comparable to gawk)

new code returns 0 for success.
2003-10-28Conditionally compile some files.Glenn L McGrath
This hides a bug related to the new bunzip code in the tar and dpkg[-deb] applets. It will also reduce compile time a little as some unused files wont be compiled.

Dear list, during my quest do pack busybox into an RPM, I've fixed a small bug (missing \n) in dc's usage. And added two additional operations: mod and exp/power. Feel free to drop them.

Your patch is not correct. Correct patch attached. Also. Last patch have - add "Broken pipe" message to ash.c - busybox ash synced with dash_0.4.18 --w vodz

Hi to all, I'm sorry but I didn't spot this big fat bug until now, Matteo Croce emailed me about it. Please apply this patch as the devfsd applet is broken and works only on a system booted with a standard devfsd ( the test I mostly did :-( ), but if used at boot time it DOESN'T WORK. Thanks in advance and please apply Tito

the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes" upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-) I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way. Many thanks for an incredible piece of software! Andreas Mohr, random OSS developer

Hello Rob, Here's a patch to your bunzip-3.c file. Nice work btw. One minor bug fix... checking for error return when read()ing. Some size/performance optimizations as well. One instance of memset() seems unnecssary. You might want to take a look. Anyway, on my machine, decompressing linux-2.6.0-test7.tar.bz2 to /dev/null gave the following times: bunzip-3.c bzcat (system) bunzip-3.c (patched) real 0m24.420s 0m22.725s 0m20.701s user 0m23.930s 0m22.170s 0m20.180s sys 0m0.070s 0m0.080s 0m0.140s Size of the patched version is comparable (slightly larger or smaller depending on compiler flags).

2003-10-18Rob Landley's new micro-bunzip version 3. Rob writes:Eric Andersen
The API for using partial writes, as described in my last message, sucked. So here's a patch against my last patch that changes things so that write_bunzip_data calls read_bunzip_data itself behind the scenes whenever necessary. So usage is now just start_bunzip(), write_bunzip_data() until it returns a negative number, and then the cleanup at the end of uncompressStream. It adds 32 bytes to the executable, but it should allow the caller (tar) to be simplified enough to compensate. Total -Os stripped exe size now 6856 bytes. Rob P.S. I attached the whole C file so you don't have to keep incremental patches straight if you don't want to. :) P.S. In the version I'm banging on now, I've simplified the license to just LGPL. I read the OSL a bit more closely and the patent termination clause would have bit IBM in their counter-suit of SCO if the code in question had been OSL instead of GPL, and I've decided I just don't want to beta-test legal code right now.

Erik, The format for /proc/meminfo has changed between 2.4 and 2.6, quite considerably. In addition to the removal of the two-line summary that was present in 2.4, MemShared was also removed. Presently (at least in busybox CVS HEAD), top fails to parse this correctly and spews forth a: top: failed to read 'meminfo' message. This patch switches around some of the semantics a little to do sane parsing for both 2.4 and 2.6. Also, in the event that the summary gets yanked from 2.4, this patch will deal with that as well. With this patch, I'm able to run top correctly on 2.6.0-test7 (tested on sh). Please apply. procps/top.c | 60 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ 1 files changed, 48 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-)

Hi Eric I have written a small patch for the Busybox syslogd. With this patch one can limit the size of the messagfile. As soon as the limit is reached the syslogd can rotate or purge the messagefile(s) on his own. There is no necessity to use an external rotatescript. Even if logread does something similar, its very handy to have some messagefile after your box crash. I wrote this patch initial vor BB 0.6x where no cron daemon was avail. Now I adapted it for the new Version and i hope it is still useful. At least I still use it :-) bye Arnd

full_write to use safe_write internally, which is needed to guarantee proper behavior, i.e. when writing to a pipe.

Moving on to building diffutils, busybox sed needs this patch to get past the first problem. (Passing it a multi-line command line argument with -e works, but if you don't use -e it doesn't break up the multiple lines...)
