trylink: explain how to modify link and drastically decrease amount
of padding (unfortunately, needs hand editing ATM).
*: add ALIGN1 / ALIGN2 to global strings and arrays of bytes and shorts
size saving: 0.5k
(will close all fd's > 2 on daemonization now)
getty: fix "getty -" support, and also do not try to chown/chmod "-"
telnetd: fix "lost ctty" bug
Yet another attempt on saner function names:
bb_sanitize_server_stdio(0/1) -> bb_sanitize_stdio() + bb_daemonize();
The "quiet" option is quietly (hah) ignored. It should be passed through
to the mount() syscall in the comma separated list of options.
I found the problem with the vfat/msdos filesystems, which uses
a quiet option to override some complaints and errors.
It is impossible to formulate sane ABI based on
size of ulong because it can be 32-bit or 64-bit.
Basically it means that you cannot portably use
more that 32 option chars in one call anyway...
Make it explicit.
option - it was going to return a special flag back to caller and
expecting caller to call it again with special parameter! Also
caller was charged with calling mount() syscall...
mount: mtab support was non-functional. Enabling it revealed serious bug
which is not fixed yet.
few new (unfinished) config options, which I intend to make hidden (but
enabled) when CONFIG_NITPICK is disabled. Getting the .config infrastructure
to do that is non-obvious, it seems...
things like xasprintf() into xfuncs.c, remove xprint_file_by_name() (it only
had one user), clean up lots of #includes... General cleanup pass. What I've
been doing for the last couple days.
And it conflicts! I've removed httpd.c from this checkin due to somebody else
touching that file. It builds for me. I have to catch a bus. (Now you know
why I'm looking forward to Mercurial.)
fallout due to the #include <sys/mount.h>. Removed that #include from various
applets and fixed up those that were unhappy when that #include was made
because they'd block copied stuff out of it. (Sigh.)
command line, initialize singlemount's rc to an error value so it doesn't
think it succeeded when it didn't, use absolute path when associating a
loop device (and the previous FEATURE_CLEAN_UP logic related to that was
freeing the wrong thing), move reading of /proc/filesystems to where we can
re-read it (when it's empty) for every entry on a "mount -a" so that when
/proc is mounted as the first entry, the later filesystems can autodetect
filesystem type.
the new infrastructure is reentrant so in theory it's capable of handling
mount -a sanely. It can also re-use existing flags with remount, handle
-t auto, mount -a -t, and several smaller bugfixes.
if we don't zero it after closing it we re-close a filehandle that isn't
open, and since this is a file _pointer_ it segfaults on a double free.
Yeah, subtle bug. I need to break this out into separate functions if I can
figure out how to avoid making the code larger while doing so. Part of
the general -a and -o remount work I need to do, but that's after 1.1.0...
added to the list, and my assumption that nfsmount() actually called
mount() was incorrect (and I coded it wrong anyway; I hate having to touch
codepaths I can't personally test).
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...
The previous code had the following notes, that belong in the version
control comments:
- * 3/21/1999 Charles P. Wright <cpwright@cpwright.com>
- * searches through fstab when -a is passed
- * will try mounting stuff with all fses when passed -t auto
- *
- * 1999-04-17 Dave Cinege...Rewrote -t auto. Fixed ro mtab.

- * 1999-10-07 Erik Andersen <andersen@codepoet.org>.
- * Rewrite of a lot of code. Removed mtab usage (I plan on
- * putting it back as a compile-time option some time),
- * major adjustments to option parsing, and some serious

Hi to all,
This patch is useful for:
1) remove an unused var from extern char *find_real_root_device_name(const char* name)
changing it to extern char *find_real_root_device_name(void).
2) fixes include/libbb.h, coreutils/df.c, util-linux/mount.c and util-linux/umount.c accordingly.
3) fixes a bug, really a false positive, in find_real_root_device_name() that happens if
in the /dev directory exists a link named root (/dev/root) that should be skipped but
is not. This affects applets like df that display wrong results
Yes, I know busybox is in feature freeze. If this two-liner is too much
that's fine, but it's handy.
This patch allows busybox mount to support "-o move" just like it
supports "-o bind", which is the equivalent of util-linux "mount --move".
Usage is:
mount -o move /mnt/point/1 /mnt/point/2
where /mnt/point/1 is an already mounted filesystem; it will be moved to
/mnt/point/2.
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
