2006-09-01Walter Harms contributed a section on scripting languages. (I trimmed itRob Landley
a bit.)
2006-09-01Vladimir Dronnikov also submitted a CIFS support patch to mount, which IRob Landley
heavily reworked here and probably broke. Tomorrow I need to set up a copy of samba to test against. (This compiles, I make no promises beyond that.)
2006-08-30Bernhard Fischer complained about moving --sort-common.Rob Landley
2006-08-29There's some strange bug in glibc that triggers if you combine theRob Landley
--gc-sections linker flag with static linking. If this happens, then the "stdout" variable (used by printf() and such) will only work if stdout is _not_ redirected. I.E "./busybox" prints stuff, but "./busybox | cat" does not produce any output. (But even when redirected, "write(1,"blah",4);" continues to work just fine.) This is clearly a glibc bug, but to avoid triggering it I've moved the --gc-sections flag so it only gets added when we're not statically linking. If somebody would like to go poke Ulrich Drepper, you can trivially reproduce this with a "hello world" program, ala: gcc -static -Wl,--gc-sections hello.c && (./a.out | cat)
2006-08-29- set version back to 1.2.0 like it was before. Add at least -svn to the ↵Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
Extraversion to be able to distinguish it from the now old 1.2.0 release
2006-08-29Svn 16007 broke the build under gcc 4.0.3. This fixes up some of the damageRob Landley
(the e2fsprogs directory is too twisty and evil to easily fix, but I plan to rewrite it anyway so I'll just bump that up in priority a bit).
2006-08-28- it's a mistake to remove lib-specific prefixes from libraries; still the ↵Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
removal should be complete.

2006-08-28More allbareconfig fixes.Rob Landley
2006-08-28Jordan Crouse submitted a patch to only include xregcomp.c when we actuallyRob Landley
use it, thus fixing building against uClibc with regex support disabled.
2006-08-28No real need for my_query_module() and this eliminates some type-punnedRob Landley
pointer warning on certain gcc versions (and saves 38 bytes).
2006-08-28- pgf(?) found and fixed that missing dependency (usage: .config, IIRC), so ↵Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
remove the now unneeded NOTPARALLEL clause
2006-08-28Unbreak allbareconfig a bit. (The telnetd.c fix is a perfect example of whyRob Landley
applets which are a forest of #ifdefs are unmaintainable.)
2006-08-24Antti Seppala (with dots over the last two a's) wants our getty to initializeRob Landley
the terminal the way mingetty does instead of the way agetty does. It's a bit ugly for somebody else to be writing to a console sitting at a login: prompt, but it's uglier when newline doesn't work as expected if they do.
2006-08-22Patch from Yann Morin so modprobe won't return failure if the module getsRob Landley
loaded while it's running (ala multi-device hotplug).
2006-08-22"Jordan Crouse" <jordan.crouse@amd.com> says:Rob Landley
The following patch makes coreutils/test.c act fail gracefully if getgroups() returns a -1.  This fixes a problem on the One Laptop Per Child ROM image whereby we were getting odd Memory exhausted messages for '[' and 'test'. Found by Mitch Bradley <wmb@firmworks.com> (Tweaked by Rob: no need to initialize a static to NULL, or realloc something that's only allocated when it's NULL.)

2006-08-17The kernel can't handle umount /dev/hdc, we have to do it through mtab,Rob Landley
except that we still have to work when there is no mtab. Oh, and while we're at it, take advantage of the fact that modern processors avoid branches via conditional assignment where possible. ("x = a ? b : c;" turns into "x = c; if (a) x = b;" because that way there's no branch to potentially mispredict and thus never a bubble in the pipeline. The if(a) turns into an assembly test followed by a conditional assignment (rather than a conditional jump).) So since the compiler is going to do that _anyway_, we might as well take advantage of it to produce a slightly smaller binary. So there.

2006-08-10Patch from Chris Steel to fix mdev deleting device nodes.Rob Landley
2006-08-10Ok, features.h already defines _OPEN_SOURCE (and complains if it's alreadyRob Landley
defined), yet it's not doing it for scripts/individual for some reason. (I hate fighting with header files.)
2006-08-09Another whack at scripts/individual. Now builds 212 applets.Rob Landley
2006-08-09Update usage to talk about the new shared subtree stuff in mount.Rob Landley
2006-08-09Vladimir Dronnikov convinced me to twiddle the semantics of the new sharedRob Landley
subtree stuff to look more like http://lwn.net/Articles/159077/ thinks they should.
2006-08-08Fix a typo (|| instead of |) and remove two comments about a problem fixedRob Landley
in the previous patch.
2006-08-08Add shared subtree support, suggested by Vladimir Dronnikov. Also break out aRob Landley
few new (unfinished) config options, which I intend to make hidden (but enabled) when CONFIG_NITPICK is disabled. Getting the .config infrastructure to do that is non-obvious, it seems...
2006-08-08Using lstat() instead of stat() means that attempting to loopback mountRob Landley
a symlink doesn't work.
2006-08-06Make a warning go away on 64-bit systems.Rob Landley
2006-08-06Teach md5sum and sha1sum to work the way other applets do so I don't have toRob Landley
teach scripts/individual new tricks. And while I'm at it, teach scripts/individual other new tricks. Now builds 198 applets, some of which I should teach it to hardlink together because they're really the same app...
2006-08-05scripts/individual now builds 171 applets. Some of them may even work. :)Rob Landley
2006-08-04There are a number of reasons for reinventing printf(). Writing status toRob Landley
stdout is not one of them.
2006-08-04We haven't got a CONFIG_APT_GET.Rob Landley
2006-08-04Digging up my old "make standalone" stuff from a year ago:Rob Landley
http://busybox.net/lists/busybox/2005-September/015766.html I renamed it "individual" to not confuse it with the standalone shell. (Which it isn't compatible with for obvious reasons.) Configure busybox (I did make defconfig), then run scripts/individual and it'll build an individual version of each applet in the "build" subdirectory. Currently it builds 146 and fails to build 104 applets out of "make defconfig". I haven't taught it about multi-file applets yet (like tar), or the ones where two applets get built from the same source (for example, zcat is a trivial variant of gunzip so there is no zcat.c). But here's a start.
