4f807a84c5 BusyBox has no business hard coding the number of major and minor bits for a
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.

Hello,

I found and patched 2 more bugs. The first is a misplaced semi-colon. The second
one is a buffer overflow. I doubt the buffer overflow is triggered in real life.
But you never know what those wily hackers are up to.

Thanks,
Steve Grubb

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!

7ffe133864 As we no longer use function pointers for read in common archiving code
archive_xread can be replaced with bb_full_read, and archive_copy_file
with bb_copyfd*
bb_copyfd is split into two functions bb_copyfd_size and bb_copyfd_eof,
they share a common backend.

91b3d460c7 Fix -C option when creating tar files.
Need to chdir after the tar file is opened, so make common tar filename
parsing and send the file descriptor rather than filename to
writeTarFile.
Modify the verboseFlag operation to determine wether to display on
stderr or stdout at display time, simpler than doing it in tar_main.

3c5a83c567 As noted by Thomas Eckert:
bb-tar "cjf" does not create a valid tbz2-archive -- if fact the result is a
    plain tar-file (no compression) -- but does not warn about the unrecognized
    parameter combination "cj" (bb does not have bzip2-compression yet, right?).

to fix this I have added an error message stating this does not work.

He also reported

    cosmetic: versose "-v" does not show any output when used with "create"

which I have now fixed as well.

Hi, Erik.

    This problem also pressent in stable version.

handle traditional semantics (i.e. 'tar -xvf -' or 'tar xvf'
now both work).

fdd5103348 Merge in two patches from Dave Cinege:
the first is a cleanup of tar --exclude
    the second changes mount so mtab works more as it should, and
    also allows mount to use the traditional short form (i.e.
    'mount / -o remount,rw' now works.

While inside tar, I changed it to use getopt...

3adffb7fc8 readlink(2) does not NULL terminate the buffer it reads in, but tar expected it
to do so.  This caused symlinks stored in tarballs to likely have trailing
crap in the stored symlink named.  Oops.

that wanted "tar cf foo.tar foo" (i.e. no "-" before options)
I broke creation of tarballs.  Now fixed.
