2003-07-22Remove the update utility, that is only relevant to older 2.0.x kernelsEric Andersen
that are no longer supported.
2003-07-22Patch from Terje Kvernes adding quite a lot of missing documentationEric Andersen
2003-07-22Patch from Andrew Flegg:Eric Andersen
Here's a pretty crude patch to reload /etc/inittab when init receives a SIGHUP. The mailing list archives weren't entirely clear on whether or not it should already happen, but didn't appear to be. The patch: * Adds a new function, reload_signal() which just calls parse_inittab() and run_actions(RESPAWN) * Before entering the while (1) loop set up SIGHUP to call reload_signal() * Modify new_init_action to skip the action if the same command already exists on the same terminal This last bit means that changing already running entries is a bit hairy as you can end up with, for example, two shells running on the same virtual console. However, for solely adding/removing entries this patch seems to work quite well.

Here's a bunch of fixes for the watchdog app in busybox. This does a couple of things: - configurable timer duration (userspace timer duration is usually configurable within the device drivers themselves). - run as a daemon - shutdown the device properly on SIGINT or SIGHUP - clear the counter immediately instead of sleeping first as well as updating the usage information. This has also been switched over to getopt to deal with the optional timer duration specifier. The changes themselves are harmless and isolated, and I've veried that this works on sh and x86 without any problems.

The current SC_x references automatically assume that everyone uses ttyS/tts as their naming scheme for their serial ports. This isn't the case for quite a few architectures, including sh, sh64, h8, arm, etc.

2003-07-16Update required kernel version and note that libc5 is no longerEric Andersen
supported (it is unmaintained and lacks support for simple things such as stdint.h) and uClibc is a better choice these days anyways.

2003-07-14Patch from Thomas Cameron:Eric Andersen
Hello all, This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system. Almost all applets now have a help entry. Also, I cleaned up the spacing of the existing text so that things are consistent. This patch is against this morning's CVS. Thomas Cameron CEI Systems, Inc.

Latest BusyBox from CVS (Jul 7 2003). File coreutils/ls.c "if" at line 970 should be enclosed in #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_LS_SORTFILES "if" at line 976 should be enclosed in #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_LS_TIMESTAMPS
2003-07-14Patch from Lars Kellogg-Stedman:Eric Andersen
The attached two patches add config documentation to init/Config.in and fileutils/Config.in.

Busybox vi is installed in /bin/vi, but crontab was looking for /usr/bin/vi. This patch makes crontab look for /bin/vi instead.

2003-07-05As noted by Thomas Eckert:Eric Andersen
bb-tar "cjf" does not create a valid tbz2-archive -- if fact the result is a plain tar-file (no compression) -- but does not warn about the unrecognized parameter combination "cj" (bb does not have bzip2-compression yet, right?). to fix this I have added an error message stating this does not work. He also reported cosmetic: versose "-v" does not show any output when used with "create" which I have now fixed as well. -Erik

2003-07-05Daniel writes:Eric Andersen
I've found a problem with job control when the init process is restarted. If the system boots for the first time, I get job control on a serial terminal - no problems. However, when I restart init by issuing "init -q", then the shell no longer has job control. I traced this a problem in console_init in the file init.c. What was happening after the restart is that the first compare if (ioctl(0, TIOCGSERIAL, &sr) == 0) { ... } else if (ioctl(0, VT_GETSTATE, &vt) == 0) { ... } else { ... // assume /dev/console } returned error and subsequently the code assumes /dev/console as the console, which does not support job control. Checking the errno after the first call showed that the system was complaining about the file descriptor. This is probably because the previous init process had closed all its file descriptors which the new init process had inherited.

Glibc 2.1.3 (used by the Hardhat Linux SDK distributed by Cyclades) does not define IF_NAMESIZE in net/if.h.
2003-07-05Patch from Lars Kellogg-Stedman:Eric Andersen
This patch fixes endian problems with get_netmask(). I don't know if this is the cleanest solution, but it makes 'ipcalc -n' work on both an i386 system and a ppc system.

but I then completely reworked the fdformat utility to comply with the current busybox way of doing things.

He took a look into the recent reports of tar problems, and found an obvious typo in last_patch91 from vodz which converted tar to use bb_getopt_ulflags.
2003-07-03Patch from Vladimir N. Oleynik (vodz):Eric Andersen
Last patch have changed for "ipcalc" applet with usage new get_ulflags() function.
2003-07-03Patch from Lars Kellogg-Stedman:Eric Andersen
Erik, et al. The attached patch makes the following changes to networking/ifupdown.c: (1) It swaps all calls to 'ip link set' and 'ip addr set'. This solves two problems: (a) Calling 'ip link set <dev> up' before assigning an address generates an error message, and (b) Under User Mode Linux, running in with ethernet interfaces in daemon mode, the MAC address for an interface is selected based on the IP address assigned to that interface. If the interface is brought up before being assigned an IP address, it gets a null MAC. (2) It further cleans up run_mapping(). This patch is against ifupdown.c revision 1.25. -- Lars
