# # For a description of the syntax of this configuration file, # see scripts/kbuild/config-language.txt. # menu "Miscellaneous Utilities" config ADJTIMEX bool "adjtimex" default n help Adjtimex reads and optionally sets adjustment parameters for the Linux clock adjustment algorithm. config BBCONFIG bool "bbconfig" default n help The bbconfig applet will print the config file with which busybox was built. config CHAT bool "chat" default n help Simple chat utility. config FEATURE_CHAT_NOFAIL bool "Enable NOFAIL expect strings" depends on CHAT default y help When enabled expect strings which are started with a dash trigger no-fail mode. That is when expectation is not met within timeout the script is not terminated but sends next SEND string and waits for next EXPECT string. This allows to compose far more flexible scripts. config FEATURE_CHAT_TTY_HIFI bool "Force STDIN to be a TTY" depends on CHAT default n help Original chat always treats STDIN as a TTY device and sets for it so-called raw mode. This option turns on such behaviour. config FEATURE_CHAT_IMPLICIT_CR bool "Enable implicit Carriage Return" depends on CHAT default y help When enabled make chat to terminate all SEND strings with a "\r" unless "\c" is met anywhere in the string. config FEATURE_CHAT_SWALLOW_OPTS bool "Swallow options" depends on CHAT default n help Busybox chat require no options. To make it not fail when used in place of original chat (which has a bunch of options) turn this on. config FEATURE_CHAT_SEND_ESCAPES bool "Support weird SEND escapes" depends on CHAT default n help Original chat uses some escape sequences in SEND arguments which are not sent to device but rather performs special actions. E.g. "\K" means to send a break sequence to device. "\d" delays execution for a second, "\p" -- for a 1/100 of second. Before turning this option on think twice: do you really need them? config FEATURE_CHAT_VAR_ABORT_LEN bool "Support variable-length ABORT conditions" depends on CHAT default n help Original chat uses fixed 50-bytes length ABORT conditions. Say N here. config FEATURE_CHAT_CLR_ABORT bool "Support revoking of ABORT conditions" depends on CHAT default n help Support CLR_ABORT directive. config CHRT bool "chrt" default n help manipulate real-time attributes of a process. This requires sched_{g,s}etparam support in your libc. config CROND bool "crond" default n select FEATURE_SUID select FEATURE_SYSLOG help Crond is a background daemon that parses individual crontab files and executes commands on behalf of the users in question. This is a port of dcron from slackware. It uses files of the format /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ files, for example: $ cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root # Run daily cron jobs at 4:40 every day: 40 4 * * * /etc/cron/daily > /dev/null 2>&1 config DEBUG_CROND_OPTION bool "Support option -d to redirect output to stderr" depends on CROND default n help -d sets loglevel to 0 (most verbose) and directs all output to stderr. config FEATURE_CROND_CALL_SENDMAIL bool "Using /usr/sbin/sendmail?" default n depends on CROND help Support calling /usr/sbin/sendmail for send cmd outputs. config CRONTAB bool "crontab" default n select FEATURE_SUID help Crontab manipulates the crontab for a particular user. Only the superuser may specify a different user and/or crontab directory. Note that Busybox binary must be setuid root for this applet to work properly. config DC bool "dc" default n help Dc is a reverse-polish desk calculator which supports unlimited precision arithmetic. config DEVFSD bool "devfsd (obsolete)" default n select FEATURE_SYSLOG help This is deprecated, and will be removed at the end of 2008. Provides compatibility with old device names on a devfs systems. You should set it to true if you have devfs enabled. The following keywords in devsfd.conf are supported: "CLEAR_CONFIG", "INCLUDE", "OPTIONAL_INCLUDE", "RESTORE", "PERMISSIONS", "EXECUTE", "COPY", "IGNORE", "MKOLDCOMPAT", "MKNEWCOMPAT","RMOLDCOMPAT", "RMNEWCOMPAT". But only if they are written UPPERCASE!!!!!!!! config DEVFSD_MODLOAD bool "Adds support for MODLOAD keyword in devsfd.conf" default n depends on DEVFSD help This actually doesn't work with busybox modutils but needs the external modutils. config DEVFSD_FG_NP bool "Enables the -fg and -np options" default n depends on DEVFSD help -fg Run the daemon in the foreground. -np Exit after parsing the configuration file. Do not poll for events. config DEVFSD_VERBOSE bool "Increases logging (and size)" default n depends on DEVFSD help Increases logging to stderr or syslog. config FEATURE_DEVFS bool "Use devfs names for all devices (obsolete)" default n help This is obsolete and will be going away at the end of 2008.. This tells busybox to look for names like /dev/loop/0 instead of /dev/loop0. If your /dev directory has normal names instead of devfs names, you don't want this. config EJECT bool "eject" default n help Used to eject cdroms. (defaults to /dev/cdrom) config FEATURE_EJECT_SCSI bool "SCSI support" default n depends on EJECT help Add the -s option to eject, this allows to eject SCSI-Devices and usb-storage devices. config FBSPLASH bool "fbsplash" default n help Shows splash image and progress bar on framebuffer device. Can be used during boot phase of an embedded device. ~2kb. Usage: - use kernel option 'vga=xxx' or otherwise enable fb device. - put somewhere fbsplash.cfg file and an image in .ppm format. - $ setsid fbsplash [params] & -c: hide cursor -d /dev/fbN: framebuffer device (if not /dev/fb0) -s path_to_image_file (can be "-" for stdin) -i path_to_cfg_file (can be "-" for stdin) -f path_to_fifo (can be "-" for stdin) - if you want to run it only in presence of kernel parameter: grep -q "fbsplash=on"
