BusyBox has support for embedded shell scripts. Two types can be
distinguished: custom scripts and scripts implementing applets.
Custom scripts should be placed in the 'embed' directory at build
time. They are given a default applet configuration and appear
as applets to the user but no further configuration is possible.
Applet scripts are integrated with the BusyBox build system and
are intended to be used to ship standard applets that just happen
to be implemented as scripts. They can be configured at build time
and appear just like native applets.
Such scripts should be placed in the 'applets_sh' directory. A stub
C program should be written to provide the usual applet configuration
details and placed in a suitable subsystem directory. It may be
helpful to have a configuration option to enable any dependencies the
script requires: see the 'nologin' applet for an example.

fstrim applet is a port from util-linux.
"Trimming" your NAND/eMMC storage will restore the write performance
back to normal after having slow down issues on sequential write and
random write due to usage over time.
Good reading on subject:

While at it, move applet/config/kbuild bits into wall.c.
(This way, it's more visible that applet is suid'ed).

Add a helper script that lists all applets that
- do or may require SUID provileges (busybox.cfg.suid)
- do not require SUID provileges (busybox.cfg.nosuid)
Some setups prefer to build two busybox binaries, one that is suid which
contains all applets that do or may require suid privileges, and a
second one for all the rest (which drops suid). To ease splitting these
two binaries, generate a list of CONFIG_ items for the suid binary.
