* rpm: respect BB_SYSTEMROOTHEADmasterRon Yorston2026-07-021-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the 'rpm' applet so it also respects the BB_SYSTEMROOT environment variable. Replace chdir_system_drive() with xchdir_system_drive(), which exits on failure to change directory. Saves 32-36 bytes. (GitHub PR #603) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: tweak bitmap icon appearanceRon Yorston2026-06-261-0/+0
| | | | | | Make the corners of the symbolic bitmap icon look more rounded. Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: shrink bitmap iconsRon Yorston2026-06-232-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Reduce the colour depth of the bitmap icons from 24-bits colour/ 8-bit alpha to 8-bit colour/1-bit alpha for aterm.ico and 1-bit colour/1-bit alpha for sterm.ico. This reduces the size of the standard builds by 21KB. The builds targeting Windows 10/11 already used smaller PNG icons. Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* sync: handle certain edge casesRon Yorston2026-06-231-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent changes to our mntent routines added support for Windows volume names. If such a name is available use it in our sync(2) implementation to flush file buffers. Failing that, use the drive letter as before. This handles edge cases where only one or other of the volume name or drive letter is available. Adds 32 bytes.

* Fix the flags for stat (again) (#601)mbartlett212026-06-221-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Revert "find: reset stat(2) flags before terminating" This reverts commit 228ee18fbe8cf408440e7bbe91db4ef201312983. * test: fix flags for stat with NOFORK test is a NOFORK applet, so the flags under mingw_stat may not have been reset before calling it. We have it so it also restores the flags after, since it could be called in the middle of another applet. This also needed a way to retrieve the flags, so they are just done through the return value. * Add comments about not having to restore flags Just for future reference * lineedit: use new flag restoring * win32: simplify mingw_access calling Since we now have a way to get the previous flags, mingw_access can be changed to ignore any stat flags * stat: comments from PR Adds 32 bytes.
* win32: Unix-like support for volume mountsRon Yorston2026-06-153-81/+194
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add code to distinguish between volume mount points and junctions. Volume mount points are to be treated like directries while junctions are like symlinks. Update the 'mntent' functions to scan drive letters first, then volume names and their associated mount points. By default the filesystem is returned as a drive letter, if possible, though the volume name is also returned. The function 'find_mount_point()' has been updated to use the new 'mntent' routines. Adds 772-803 bytes. Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: extend handling of virtual disksRon Yorston2026-06-082-7/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 62e4c5d29 (win32: special treatment for virtual hard disk) added special treatment for mount points associated with virtual hard disks. One statement made there was incorrect: a VHD without a drive letter containing no files *does* have a '.' directory. The error message for this case was misleading. The changes made to handle VHDs were insufficiently general: - lstat(2) only resolved symlinks for the explicit path '.'. It should also do so for paths of the form 'path/to/.'. - opendir(3) only generated entries for '.' and '..' directories when FindFirstFileA() failed for the path '.'. It should also do so for any path which resolves to a volume mount point. Make the necessary changes. Adds 64-80 bytes. (GitHub issue #597) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: special treatment for virtual hard diskRon Yorston2026-06-072-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Virtual hard disks (VHD) without a drive letter gave incorrect results in 'ls' and 'stat'. There were two problems: - If the disk is empty it doesn't have a '.' directory. - If it contains files the '.' directory is actually the mount point, which looks like a symbolic link and can't be opened as a directory. Modify our 'stat(2)' and 'opendir(3)' implementations to handle these quirks. Adds 78-80 bytes. (GitHub issue #597) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: avoid problems with forward slashes in path to cmd.exeRon Yorston2026-06-061-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running 'C:/Windows/System32/cmd.exe' from the shell was found to have the unxpected result of creating the directory '.exe'. This is due to the weirdness of cmd.exe. A similar problem with batch files was already being handled in `spawnveq()` by converting forward slashes to backslashes in the path to the executable file. Doing this unconditionally will fix the above case too. (GitHub issue #598) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: special treatment for mounted volumesRon Yorston2026-06-041-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It was reported that a mounted volume looked like a broken symlink and that changing to the mount directory failed. Preserve the format of the volume name when resolving the link. Adds 84-96 bytes. (GitHub issue #597) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* stty: code shrinkRon Yorston2026-05-261-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The current implementation of 'stty' for Windows only uses a limited subset of the flags in 'struct termios'. Remove some unused features. Saves 16-40 bytes. Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: fix incorrect change to tcgetattr()Ron Yorston2026-05-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit a560fdf23 (win32: better handling of console state) changed to using CONIN$/CONOUT$ to handle terminal modes. In tcgetattr() CONOUT$ was used instead of CONIN$, leading to incorrect mode bits being fetched. Saves 8-16 bytes. (GitHub issue #594) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: better handling of console stateRon Yorston2026-05-222-25/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When 'stty size' was run in a command substitution with stderr redirected or 'stty -echo' with stdin redirected, it failed to work properly. The redirections broke its connection to the terminal. To fix this, ioctl/tcsetattr/tcgetattr have been modified to use CONIN$ or CONOUT$ to access the screen buffer. Using CON isn't an adequate substitute in this case. Also, if ioctl(fd, TIOCGWINSZ) fails, set errno. Adds 112-116 bytes. (GitHub issue #594) Signed-off-by: Ron Yorston <rmy@pobox.com>
* win32: allow stat(2) to skip costly check for executeRon Yorston2026-05-181-14/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If 'ls' is invoked without the '-l' option (or something that's equivalent) and colour output isn't required, there's no need to perform the expensive check for execute permission. Allow 'ls' to inform stat(2) not to call has_exec_format(). This has been combined with the existing mechanism to enable counting subdirectories. With this change the command 'ls | wc -l' used in issue #589 doesn't perform the test which upset Windows' anti-malware thing. Adds 32-48 bytes. (GitHub issue #589)
* reset: add support for stty and Windows TerminalRon Yorston2026-05-111-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'reset' applet hasn't kept pace with developments elsewhere. We now have support for 'stty sane', so the code in 'reset' which calls that can be enabled. Windows 10 and 11 have updated Terminal and Console programs, with varying features and behaviours. Add ANSI emulation code to handle clearing the scrollback buffer and use ANSI sequences in 'reset' to do that. It was also necessary to retain the explicit call to reset_screen(), or 'reset' didn't work properly in the Terminal I'd installed in Windows 10. Adds 92-128 bytes. (GitHub issue #161)
* win32: silence warning in ioctl(2)Ron Yorston2026-05-051-0/+2
| | | | | Silence a compiler warning that 'arg' is an unused variable if neither stty nor ttysize is defined.
* win32: add FAST_FUNC annotationsRon Yorston2026-05-0422-127/+139
| | | | | | | | | I've been far too lax in applying FAST_FUNC annotations. These can make function calls smaller and faster, but only on 32-bit systems and for non-static, non-variadic functions with non-void arguments. Saves 4680 bytes in the 32-bit build; 64-bit builds are unaffected.
* Add crond and crontab (#561)mbartlett212026-05-032-7/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Enable crontab * Enable crond * Allow sendmail to be used in crond This also adds another option to the mingw_popen_fd function to capture stderr as well. And also added the options to support WNOHANG as well as an unused status in mingw_wait3 * Check current uid when running crond * Only show tail for mailto jobs * Use system drive for cron * crond: add missing feature check * crond: use spawn_detach for background operation
* win32: disable urandom/zero devices if dd is disabledRon Yorston2026-04-272-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | Support for /dev/urandom and /dev/zero relies on having a working dd. If the dd applet is disabled attempts to access them should fail. Theoretically a third-party dd utility could also work, but let's not encourage that sort of heresy.
* win32: improve urandom/zero device handlingRon Yorston2026-04-262-14/+13
| | | | | | Rearrange the code to avoid a superfluous process creation. Saves 16 bytes in the 64-bit build, adds 24 in the 32-bit.
* win32: expose /dev/urandom and /dev/zeroRon Yorston2026-04-261-8/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the special devices /dev/urandom and /dev/zero could only be used via the 'dd' applet. They were also used internally by some applets. Expose /dev/urandom and /dev/zero so they can be used as file arguments to applets and a source of redirections in the shell. They're also now visible to 'stat' and 'ls', but only if given as an explicit argument. Adds 122-144 bytes. (GitHub issues #98, #282)
* Win32: trivial refinements (#577)avih2026-04-183-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * win32: fnmatch2 minor refinements (no-op) With beacket, add '\' to the switch/case, and at fnmatch, pre-calc the two most used flags (CASEFOLD and PATHNAME) once on init. Negligible perf impact, and happens to save few bytes in x64. * win32: actype: trivial refinments (no-op) NULL was used in actype.h but requires stddef.h - which we don't include, so use (int*)0 which also expresses it more clearly. Remove "#include <string.h>" at actype.c, which we don't need anymore. * scripts/patbench.sh: make executable (chmod +x)

Maybe the stars aligned for compiler optimizations. We'll take it.

* win32: fnmatch2.c: optimize last '*'Avi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-161-1/+87
| | | | | | | | This adds two fairly cheap and effective optimizations at the tail of the pattern (after the last '*'). Speeds up many cases by ~ x2+. Details at the comment inside. Adds 192 bytes in x64.
* win32: switch to new fnmatch2.cAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-163-0/+233
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | win32/fnmatch.c has several issues: - *[* doesn't match foo[bar - but it should (non-special '['). - FMN_CASEFOLD is not handled corrrectly. It does tolower on pattern and string, which doesn't always work, e.g. *[@-[]* correctly matches '@', A-Z, and '[', but as case-insensitive it only matches '@' and '[' (tolower on the string breaks all the alpha matches): set -o nocaseglob; echo *[@-[]* set +o nocaseglob; echo *[@-[]* - According to posix, negative bracket range, like [z-a], should be either invalid or empty, but instead it matches only 'z'. - There could be more issues hiding - the code is not easy to follow. - It's exponential time in the number of '*' in pattern. This commit adds win32/fnmatch2.c and disables win32/fnmatch.c (currently using "#if 0"), but still keeps it in the tree. The new implementation is written from scratch, non-recursive and linear time, improves POSIX compliance, and hopefully more readable and fixable if needed. Also, it's about half the size at the binary (saves 908 bytes in x64). See implementation details and choices as comment at fnmatch2.c .
* win32: actype: remove size-optimization option (no-op)Avi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-161-23/+9
| | | | | | It was already disabled (ASH_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is 0 by default), and it saved ~ 40 bytes but with big hit on performance, so not really worth it. This also makes actype.c less noisy.
* win32: actype: code shrinkAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-162-18/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unify actype/actail into a single function, and make actype a wrapper macro which invokes actail(str, NULL) (to avoid calling a function actype which then trampolines to actail with NULL). This concludes the integration of actype/isactype. Overall: - Unified/standard-ish char-class handling in fnmatch/regcomp/tr. - Saved about 1400 bytes at the binary as x64. - regcomp.c is negligibly faster (actype/isactype are O(1)). - tr.c now also supports [:graph:] and [:print:], and not slower. fnmatch.c (tested using scripts/patbench.sh): Before actype was integrated, alnum was fastest and xdigit slowest due to their order in the names strings list and in the switch/case: [35] 1305 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[0-9A-Za-z]*[0-9A-Za-z]' [36] 1928 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[[:alnum:]]*[[:alnum:]]' [38] 1446 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[a-bc-de-z]*[a-bc-de-z]' [39] 3192 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[[:lower:]]*[[:lower:]]' [40] 1586 ms OK (M:---4-) '*[0-9A-Fa-ef]*[0-9A-Fa-ef]' [41] 4601 ms OK (M:---4-) '*[[:xdigit:]]*[[:xdigit:]]' Now all classes are similar relative to an equivalent range, and just barely slower than "alnum" before actype was added (still slower than range due to additional temp name buffer): [35] 1402 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[0-9A-Za-z]*[0-9A-Za-z]' [36] 1962 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[[:alnum:]]*[[:alnum:]]' [38] 1453 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[a-bc-de-z]*[a-bc-de-z]' [39] 1965 ms OK (M:12-45) '*[[:lower:]]*[[:lower:]]' [40] 1683 ms OK (M:---4-) '*[0-9A-Fa-ef]*[0-9A-Fa-ef]' [41] 2117 ms OK (M:---4-) '*[[:xdigit:]]*[[:xdigit:]]'
* win32: actype/isactype: optimize both to O(1)Avi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-162-40/+154
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The premise, and implementation, is simple: instead of doing string search in a list of strings for the class name - which is fast for the first strings in the list but slow for the last strings, use perfect hash to map the string directly to a potential class to match in O(1). The switch/case in isactype is also changed to a function table in O(1) (the compiler might have optimized this switch to O(1) jump-table, but now we don't leave it to chance). Two implementations are supported: one which allows testing actype_t value against specific classes like AC_ALNUM etc, and one which doesn't allow that (just like wctype/iswctype) and is more efficient. Since nothing uses specific class matches anymore, default is the more efficient choice - where actype_t is a function pointer to isalnum etc. And while at it, also change the enum names CCLASS_ALNUM etc to more appropriate AC_ALNUM etc, to use the AC "namespace".
* win32: regcomp.c: use isactype insead of switchAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-162-48/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This saves more than 1K size because the original switch code expanded a two-loops macro - BUILD_CHARCLASS_LOOP in each of the 12 "case". Performance is non critical here in regcomp, but nevertheless, a future commit will optimize actype/isactype, and especially isactype_not0 (which is used here with non-0 type). Also: - "#if 0" was replaced with "#ifndef CONFIG_BUSYBOX" for clarity. - is_blank is no longer used, and disabled in this commit.
* win32: fnmatch.c: use isactype insead of switchAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-161-51/+9
| | | | | | | | | | This preserves the original semantics where only ASCII chars are tested, and unknown class name is considered known-but-unmatched name, which is different than the equivalent wctype code just above. The ASCII test is redundant, at least on windows - where all the class tests (isalnum, isupper, etc) can only return true for ASCII values, but nevertheless it's kept as the original semantics.
* win32: add actype/isactype instead of match_classAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-04-167-23/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TL;DR: - Add actype/isactype, like POSIX wctype/iswctype, but single-byte. - actype is a renamed match_class, isactype is yet unused. - This can be used in win32/{fnmatch,regcomp}.c, and elsewhere - tr.c. Details: win32/fnmatch.c and win32/regcomp.c used match_class to get char-class index for char-class name, which is then used in a switch statement to choose the single-byte isupper, isalpha, etc. This is analogous to the POSIX wctype/iswctype, except that wctype returns 0 for unknown name but match_class returned -1. This commit renames match_class to actype: - Returns 0 for unknown name, which at the enum is a new CCLASS_NONE. - Return type is actype_t (still enum), analogous to wctype_t. - Rename match_class* to actype* at fname/kbuild/includes/usage. Both fnmatch.c and regcomp.c don't care whether unknown name in match_class/actype is -1 (match_class) or 0 (actype). All they care about is the values at each "case". Also implemented, but not yet used: - isactype(c, t): test whether char c is of type t. - isactype_not0(c, t): when t is not-0 - same as isactype but faster. - actail(s, int*): test for "NAME:]..." without temporary buffer. Note that this commit focuses on exposing a useful API rather than performance. Future commits may improve actype/isactype performance.
* ash: allow 'times' built-in to report process timingRon Yorston2026-04-122-19/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move existing code which obtains process execution times into a separate function. Use it to allow times(2) to report execution times for the current process, though not child execution times.

* win32: UTF8_OUTPUT: reject overlong encodingAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-03-251-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Overlong UTF8 encoding means that a codepoint is encoded using more bytes than necessary, and it's disallowed. Until now we didn't reject it, e.g. 2-bytes sequence of 0xc0 0x9b was incorrectly decoded as codepoint 0x1b (ESC), but it's overlong because 1-byte 0x1b is enough for this codepoint. Now we reject such sequences and print '?' (CONFIG_SUBST_WCHAR). Additionally, we now also reject 4-bytes sequences which end up above the maximum valid codepoint value (0x10ffff). No such issue with 1/2/3 bytes UTF-8 because technically only 4 can encode a too big value.
* win32: UTF8_OUTPUT: don't fail due to nwritten valueAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-03-191-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "nwritten" argument and failure conditions were added in commit 208649d7b5, as it crashed on windows XP without it, and specifically because WriteConsoleW on XP expects this to be a non-NULL argument. However, writeCon_utf8 should not be called on XP - and indeed it's not since commit 234a3b97d3, because it produces incorrect output unless the UTF8 manifest is in effect - which never happens on XP. So it was called due to a bug, and it's not called on XP anymore. Nevertheless, it's possible that in the future we will support native Windows Unicode without the manifest - also on XP, and in such case writeCon_utf8 might get called on XP as well, so keep this argument. However the nwritten failure condition doesn't belong here. It's not needed on XP, and MS docs doesn't say that this value should tested in addition to the return value in order to determine failure, and theoretically there could be differences unrelated to failure. So ignore this value when determining failure. Return value is enough.
* win32: UTF8_OUTPUT: refine bad-sequence outputAvi Halachmi (:avih)2026-03-191-18/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, at writeCon_utf8, when we detected an invalid byte (for the current state), then we printed one '?' which also covered any following invalid bytes, until a valid byte for state 0 was detected. For instance printf '\377\377\377A' printed '?A' (3 bad bytes, 1 '?'). This was by design to avoid excessive '?' noise. However, other terminals (xterm), and specifically windows console (and terminal), print one '?' for any decoding error, and also reset the decoding state after every error. I.e. the same input would error 3 times, and display '???A'. Now we do the same, which also happens to simplify the code. The reference behavior is windows console/terminal in UTF-8 codepage (which writeCon_utf8 tries to emulate in other console codepages). To compare, do 'chcp 65001' to set the console to UTF-8 - which also bypasses writeCon_utf8, and check how the terminal displays some sequence. We should be the same, up to CONFIG_SUBST_WCHAR value. The "state" comment is updated since we no longer maintain bad state. While at it, refine also few nearby comments.
* ash: allow execution of busybox-w32 binary without extensionRon Yorston2026-02-251-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the busybox-w32 binary didn't have an extension the shell was unable to spawn itself: $ ls -l busybox -rwxrwxr-x 1 rmy rmy 661006 Feb 25 09:37 busybox $ ./busybox sh $ ls sh: unable to spawn shell This happened because the shell used spawnve() from the C runtime to execute itself. Microsoft insists on trying to add an extension to the name of the binary unless it has an explicit '.' as its last character. Use the internal spawnveq() instead, as it handles various quirks like the above. Adds 16-32 bytes. (GitHub issue #566)

* win32: fix output conversion with no-op utf8 manifestAvi Halachmi (:avih)2025-12-261-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before commit 208649d7, when unicode was enabled (utf8 manifest), the build refused to run unless the manifest was in effect (the codepage is UTF8, and argv, win APIs, and internal strings are UTF8 too). That commit, however, allows such build to also run where the manifest has no effect (prior to win10 1903), and so some of the unicode code paths behave incorrectly in such cases when the runtime ACP is ANSI. This commit fixes the UTF8_OUTPUT code path in such case, to also check ACP, instead of unconditionally printing to the console as UTF8. When ACP is not UTF8, it now behaves identically to a non-unicode build (doing output conversion from ACP to console out-CP if needed). Example: create a filename which is valid in the ANSI codepage with chars above 127, and do "echo *" (glob expansion), which now prints the name correctly, but previously it didn't when the build has unicode enabled at buildtime but not runtime (see next why not just try "ls"). This covers the existing busybox-w32 unicode code paths, as the others (UTF8_INPUT and unicode-aware editing) already had runtime ACP test, so unicode _should_ be disabled correctly if the runtime ACP is ANSI. However, there are also some new upstream unicode code paths which can be entered now - when unicode is enabled at build time but disabled at runtime. One we know of is printable-chars code, which is used by applets like "ls", and so currently, when unicode is enabled at build time but disabled at runtime, "ls" displays valid ANSI chars above 127 as "?". The next commit will address this.

* win32: add a config for 32-bit build with UnicodeRon Yorston2025-12-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that a binary with a UTF-8 manifest can run on Windows XP it's possible to configure a build which supports Unicode on Windows 10+ but which still runs on legacy systems. - Add the config file mingw32w_defconfig. This is a 32-bit build with the UTF-8 manifest which also runs on legacy systems. - A new config option, FEATURE_FAIL_IF_UTF8_MANIFEST_UNSUPPORTED, allows the check for legacy systems to be skipped. - An incompatibility with Windows XP in writeCon_utf8() has been fixed.

* win32: avoid failure when localtime() argument is out of rangeRon Yorston2025-11-261-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation of localtime(3) in the Microsoft Windows runtime only accepts arguments between the Unix epoch (1970) and either 2038 or 3000 for 32-bit or 64-bit systems respectively. For values outside those limits it returns a NULL pointer. Unfortunately, upstream BusyBox hardly ever bothers to check the return value. Thus, when a call to stat(2) returned an all-zero FILETIME for a file, the 'stat' applet failed. An all-zero FILETIME represents a date in 1600, which is clearly before the Unix epoch. Add a wrapper to localtime(3) which detects an out-of-range value and returns a valid 'struct tm' for the Unix epoch. This is easier than adding checks on the return value of every call to localtime(3). Adds 32-48 bytes. (GitHub issue #548)
* mkdir: correctly report directory creationRon Yorston2025-11-221-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was found that 'mkdir -p --verbose C:/' incorrectly reported that 'C:/' was created. Commit 0e0b5e9ff8 (mingw.c: ignore EACCES from mkdir if directory exists) fixed a failure to create directories but caused the `mkdir` applet to issue the wrong diagnostic. The underlying problem is in the Windows runtime implementation of _mkdir(): it can return the wrong errno in some cases, EACCES instead of EEXIST. Having the mkdir(2) wrapper return the correct errno should fix both the directory creation and verbose diagnostic problems.
