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 Improve the setuid situation a bit, and make it more apparent 2004-08-26T23:13:00+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-08-26T23:13:00+00:00 urn:sha1:138791050d36d221d718568094892245d7c6f6ec when people really ought to make busybox setuid root. -Erik Fix incorrect arguments being passed to mknod 2004-07-30T17:48:21+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-30T17:48:21+00:00 urn:sha1:cbcdbc41ffab413767569891b58526b4d1066627 Fixup getty, login, etc so the utmp and wtmp are updated, allowing 2004-07-30T17:24:47+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-30T17:24:47+00:00 urn:sha1:aad29b37a7345207c94e8ef9f0bac943d43dbe12 the 'who' and 'last' applets among other things to work as expected. -Erik Fix up brain damage with the way major and minor are used to 2004-07-30T14:36:37+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-30T14:36:37+00:00 urn:sha1:e71e760a9945dffbf2e6238e70768dd52948abe5 create a dev_t BusyBox has no business hard coding the number of major and minor bits for a 2004-07-26T09:11:12+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-26T09:11:12+00:00 urn:sha1:4f807a84c5d936c931cd93c9e98d087305295a1c dev_t. This is especially important now that the user space concept of a dev_t and the kernel concept of a dev_t are divergant. The only bit of user space allowed to know the number of major and minor bits is include/sys/sysmacros.h (i.e. part of libc). When used with a current C library and a 2.6.x kernel, this fix should allow BusyBox to support wide device major/minor numbers. -Erik Patch by Paul Whittaker, make busybox dc compatable with GNU dc. 2004-07-24T06:01:52+00:00 Glenn L McGrath bug1@ihug.co.nz 2004-07-24T06:01:52+00:00 urn:sha1:7991ad172041322ce49244ab53f2d323e71bf0c4 the following example was broken, echo "1 1 +" | dc Avoid a naming conflict with include/bits/fcntl.h 2004-07-20T22:53:59+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-20T22:53:59+00:00 urn:sha1:f828da00201ad4c245f22fd5466be1ddb63b0f74 Include some documentation posted to the list by vodz 2004-07-20T08:07:10+00:00 Eric Andersen andersen@codepoet.org 2004-07-20T08:07:10+00:00 urn:sha1:98e4eab0c632f7ed8d823bf587df40abeb68ea9d
