* BusyBox has no business hard coding the number of major and minor bits for aEric Andersen2004-07-261-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | 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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi to all, I discovered a little bug in hdparm.c (really two little bugs...I've made...sigh! Mea culpa). Some vars were modified only locally and this could lead to wrong results to be displayed with the -I switch and maybe with others. Attached is a patch that fix it ( +88b). Also attached is second patch that reduces the size a little bit: text data bss dec hex filename 27984 624 900 29508 7344 hdparm.o (without bug-fix) 28072 624 900 29596 739c hdparm.o (with bug-fix) 28141 624 900 29665 73e1 hdparm.o (original) but maybe this one can wait as we are in a feature freeze. Ciao, Tito

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi to all, here is a new patch for bb's devfsd. The news are: 1) Size reduction for the basic setup with no options compiled in from : text data bss dec hex filename 10591 392 543 11526 2d06 devfsd.o rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18536 Dec 18 21:52 devfsd.o to: text data bss dec hex filename 9303 392 543 10238 27fe devfsd.o rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16528 Dec 18 22:02 devfsd.o With this setup you should not expect much output from devfsd ( just at start or with -v) and if some error occurs it only exits 1. To have more output enable: " Increases logging (and size)" (+1568 b). 2) The option "Adds function names to program output" was removed from config menu and now to enable debug output you can use bb's standard option: "Build BusyBox with Debugging symbols". Be careful as with this option enabled a lot of data are outputted to /dev/log and/or to stderr. 3) A new option: "Enables the -fg and -np option" was added to config menu (+128 b). BTW: option "Adds support for MODLOAD keyword in devsfd.conf" adds 268 b. 4) 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!!!!!!!! 5)Help text in usage.h was modified. 6)Something that I have forgotten.......... I've tested this for the last week on my box and it seems to work as expected. Thanks in advance and please apply. Ciao, Tito

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi to all, I'm sorry but I didn't spot this big fat bug until now, Matteo Croce emailed me about it. Please apply this patch as the devfsd applet is broken and works only on a system booted with a standard devfsd ( the test I mostly did :-( ), but if used at boot time it DOESN'T WORK. Thanks in advance and please apply Tito

| | | | | | | | | | | should we rename the define into CONFIG_FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_DMA and use it for "set" and "get" ??? Since although CONFIG_FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_GET_DMA is _not_ set I still can use "hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda" to switch the DMA on. Is this desireable or meant to be like that? So how about the applied patch?
