2005-05-04Tweak the "pretty lsmod for 2.6" patch to be seperately selectable.Rob Landley
Patch from Takeharu Kato.
2005-05-04Takeharu Kato's patch added 2.6 support to lsmod; this changes menuconfigRob Landley
dependencies so 2.6 support depends on insmod or lsmod...
2005-05-03Takeharu Kato said:Rob Landley
I found that lsmod in busybox does not support linux-2.6. I fix this issue(it is caused by changes of /proc/modules format). If you use lsmod in busybox with kernel-2.6, please use this patch.

Hi! I've created a patch to busybox' build system to allow building it in separate tree in a manner similar to kbuild from kernel version 2.6. That is, one runs command like 'make O=/build/some/where/for/specific/target/and/options' and everything is built in this exact directory, provided that it exists. I understand that applyingc such invasive changes during 'release candidates' stage of development is at best unwise. So, i'm currently asking for comments about this patch, starting from whether such thing is needed at all to whether it coded properly. 'make check' should work now, and one make creates Makefile in build directory, so one can run 'make' in build directory after that. One possible caveat is that if we build in some directory other than source one, the source directory should be 'distclean'ed first. egor
2004-09-24Patch from Egor DudaGlenn L McGrath
Attached patch prevents modprobe from trying to call 'insmod (null)' whenever nonexistent module is either passed to modprobe via command line or mentioned in modules.dep this replaces cryptic error sh: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") with modprobe: module some-module not found. egor.
2004-09-02Based on patches from Mike Frysinger, add insmod support forEric Andersen
sparc and ia64 (itanium). Also, reorganize the insmod architecture support code to be alphasorted and less messy. Update the readme to list current insmod arch support.

particular making alias support work better.

2004-08-14Christian Ostheimer writes:Eric Andersen
Hello, function build_dep in modprobe.c assumes that dependencies of one module have not more than 255 chars; that is not sufficient in kernel 2.6.7 (alsa sound modules). - Below is a diff that solves the problem for me. With regards, Christian Ostheimer
2004-08-11Patch from Mike Castle, dont print an empty line (patch modified by me toGlenn L McGrath
change formatting).
2004-08-11Patch from Phil Blundellto improve substring matchGlenn L McGrath
2004-08-11Willian Barsse wroteGlenn L McGrath
"There seems to be a slight problem with the "mod_strcmp" function in modprobe.c, it scans for the first occurence of the module name in the "mod_path" variable and expects it to be the last path element. ie /lib/modules/2.4.22-debug/kernel/fs/vfat in my example. The comparison will always fail if mod_path contains another substring matching the module name." Robert McQueen wrote "Although William Barsse's patch fixed mod_strcmp for 2.4 kernels, there was a remaining problem which prevented it from working for me. I've just tracked it down - when you enable kernel 2.6 module support it hard-wired the extension to .ko instead of checking at runtime like the other places where 2.4 differs from 2.6. The attached patch fixes this for me."
2004-08-03William Barsse writes:Eric Andersen
fixes two other issues (plus the previous as well) with a 2.4 kernel : - should be able to modprobe an already loaded module and get 0 return code : # modprobe <something> && modprobe <something> && echo "ok" || echo "failed" .... failed Well, hope this helps and that I didn't screw up again, - William
2004-07-22Patch from Mike Snitzer <snitzer@gmail.com>:Robert Griebl
Support for /etc/modprobe.conf (for 2.6 kernels) should likely be added to bb's modprobe, see attached patch. modprobe.conf is just a (even simpler) variant of modules.conf

Please see the attached patch for the following crash with busybox' 2.6 rmmod support

Hi, There was some problem with busybox modprobe. For details see http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2004-May/011507.html I made a patch against busybox-1.00-pre10 to fix that one. This is a slight variant of Patrick's patch with a slightly cleaner implementation of mod_strcmp() -Erik

This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10. If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and I will make alternate arrangements. Erik - please apply. Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning. Package importers - see if any of these changes should be passed to the upstream authors. I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes, mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words. What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c? Good luck on the 1.00 release! - Larry

Fix parsing of all tag-value pairs (in modules.conf in particular). Without this fix, code chokes badly on lines where either value or both tag+value are missing, like bare alias line, or alias w/o the value like alias some-module (syntactically incorrect, but no need for coredumps either).
