to stderr, rather than stdout, so that things like
~ # time bunzip2 -c /tmp/test.bz2 > /dev/null
real 0m 29.44s
user 0m 29.30s
sys 0m 0.12s
operate as expected.
Dear list,
during my quest do pack busybox into an RPM, I've fixed a small bug
(missing \n) in dc's usage. And added two additional operations: mod and
exp/power.
Feel free to drop them.
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
the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!
Andreas Mohr, random OSS developer
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?
Hi.
Last patch have new libbb function
vfork_rexec() for can use daemon() to uClinux system.
This patched daemons: syslog, klogd, inetd, crond.
This not tested! I havn`t this systems.
Also. Previous patch for feature request MD5 crypt password for
httpd don`t sended to this mailist on 07/15/03
(mailist have Pytom module problem?).
The previous patch included, and have testing.

Here's a bunch of fixes for the watchdog app in busybox. This does a
couple of things:
- configurable timer duration (userspace timer duration is
usually configurable within the device drivers themselves).
- run as a daemon
- shutdown the device properly on SIGINT or SIGHUP
- clear the counter immediately instead of sleeping first
as well as updating the usage information. This has also been switched
over to getopt to deal with the optional timer duration specifier.
The changes themselves are harmless and isolated, and I've veried that
this works on sh and x86 without any problems.
Hello all,
This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system. Almost
all applets now have a help entry. Also, I cleaned up the spacing of
the existing text so that things are consistent. This patch is against
this morning's CVS.

Manuel,
I rewrite bb_getopt_ulflags() function for more universal usage.
My version support now:
- options with arguments (optional arg as GNU extension also)
- complementaly and/or incomplementaly and/or incongruously and/or list
options
- long_opt (all applets may have long option, add supporting is trivial)
This realisation full compatibile from your version.
Code size grow 480 bytes, but only coreutils/* over compensate this size
after using new function. Last patch reduced over 800 bytes and not full
applied to all. "mkdir" and "mv" applets have long_opt now for demonstrate
trivial addition support long_opt with usage new bb_getopt_ulflags().
Complementaly and/or incomplementaly and/or incongruously and/or list options
logic is not trivial, but new "cut" and "grep" applets using this logic
for examples with full demostrating. New "grep" applet reduced over 300
bytes.
Mark,
Also. I removed bug from "grep" applet.
$ echo a b | busybox grep -e a b
a b
a b
But right is printing one only.

modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.
