symbol (switched on to remove now: test your apps to make sure they _don't_
do this, because as some point we should just yank it), fixup head/tail/fold.
Also tweak "make allyesconfig" so anything starting with CONFIG_DEBUG gets
left switched off. Possibly other things we want to put in the debug menu?
They mean something different when the user they're switching to is different,
so if you still want suid you reset it afterwards. This is a safety feature.

- use short boilerplate and remove superfluous keyword extern.
* coreutils.h: remove prototype of non-existing xgetoptfile_sort_uniq
and add boilerplate.
* networking/{ipaddr,ip,iplink,iproute,iptunnel}.c: touch includes
and use short boilerplate.
* libiproute/iproute.c: rename round to avoid clashes with older
SuSE gcc and use short boilerplate.
- new bb_getopt_ulflags features: check max and min args, convert first argv to options special for ar and tar applets
- use bb_default_error_retval for env applet
- more long opt compatibility, can set flag for long opt struct now
- more logic: check opt-depend requires and global requires, special for 'id' and 'start-stop-daemon' applets.
st_mode is random garbage (under uClibc), leading to random triggering
of the S_ISDIR() case when the destination will be a normal file which
doesn't exist yet. I.E. checking the return value of lstat is not optional.
a meaningless warning. But I do expect you preserve the coding style
and variable names when all you're doing is tweaking some of my code.
I repeat... do NOT change whitespace, variable names, or coding style in
any of my code simply to conform to your coding style.
This fixes the warning, and makes the binary smaller out of sheer pique.
(Yes, since Manuel did this one it's nice tight code that took several
attempts to shrink, but I was ticked.)
Add the start of a test for uniq; this is about the first 1/3 of the
tests we need for full susv3 coverage of uniq.
things down a bit, fixed a number of funky corner cases, added support for
several new features (things like mount --move, mount --bind, lazy unounts,
automatic detection of loop mounts, and so on). Probably broke several
other things, but it's fixable. (Bang on it, tell me what doesn't work for
you...)
Note: you no longer need to say "-o loop". It does that for you when
necessary.
Still need to add "user mount" support, which involves making mount suid. Not
too hard to do under the new infrastructure, just haven't done it yet...

This fixes that, although the logic of both mv and cp is a bit tangled and
should probably be untangled.

More to the point, this patch uses the same regex that sed.c is already using
(opportunity to suck in less library code), and even building a dynamically
linked busybox with just expr the result is a slightly smaller binary (by 94
bytes, I dunno what nm --size-sort has to say about it because I didn't build
with debug info, since that changes the binary size a lot by disabling
optimization...)
Your mileage may vary. Handle with caution. Do not taunt happy fun ball.

Comments from Vladimir Oleynik influenced the final patch, and I also ripped
out the in-file changelog since it belongs here. At the time, it said:
/* Apr 15, 2004 Matthew S. Wood (mwood@realmsys.com)
*
* Implement '-b' (backup) flag.
* Implement '-S' (backup suffix) flag.
*
*
* Mar 16, 2003 Manuel Novoa III (mjn3@codepoet.org)
*
* Fixed bug involving -n option. Essentially, -n was always in effect.

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.

Hi Erik,
Hi to all,
This is part five of the my_get*id story.
I've tweaked a bit this two functions to make them more flexible,
but this changes will not affect existing code.
Now they work so:
1) my_getpwuid( char *user, uid_t uid, int bufsize)
if bufsize is > 0 char *user cannot be set to NULL
on success username is written on static allocated buffer
on failure uid as string is written to buffer and NULL is returned
if bufsize is = 0 char *user can be set to NULL
on success username is returned
on failure NULL is returned
if bufsize is < 0 char *user can be set to NULL
on success username is returned
on failure an error message is printed and the program exits
2) 1) my_getgrgid( char *group, uid_t uid, int bufsize)
if bufsize is > 0 char *group cannot be set to NULL
on success groupname is written on static allocated buffer
on failure gid as string is written to buffer and NULL is returned
if bufsize is = 0 char *group can be set to NULL
on success groupname is returned
on failure NULL is returned
if bufsize is < 0 char *group can be set to nULL
on success groupname is returned
on failure an error message is printed and the program exits
This changes were needed mainly for my new id applet.
It is somewhat bigger then the previous but matches the behaviour of GNU id
and is capable to handle usernames of whatever length.
BTW: at a first look it seems to me that it will integrate well (with just a few changes)
with the pending patch in patches/id_groups_alias.patch.
The increase in size is balanced by the removal of my_getpwnamegid.c
from libbb as this was used only in previous id applet and by size optimizations
made possible in whoami.c and in passwd.c.
I know that we are in feature freeze but I think that i've tested it enough
(at least I hope so.......).
Hi,
I've fixed also the issue of whoami cutting down usernames.
This time I cannot send a diff because i don't know if my previous patches will be applied
or not, so I send in the whole file.
The changes I've made don't affect size but ensure that usernames of whatever lenght
are correctly displayed.
root@localhost:/dev/pts/3:/root/Desktop/busybox/coreutils# size whoami_orig.o
text data bss dec hex filename
102 0 0 102 66 whoami_orig.o
root@localhost:/dev/pts/3:/root/Desktop/busybox/coreutils# size whoami.o
text data bss dec hex filename
93 0 0 93 5d whoami.o
This should be applied even if the other patches aren't as this matches the behaviour of the GNU whoami.
Thanks in advance,
Ciao,
Tito
