- apply hunk that fixes an issue with (wrong?) dependencies. Initial notes were:
...
There is something wrong in the new buildsys: If one selects ip and has e.g.
rule or route unset, ip still wants to build those.
This fails (correctly) since rtnl_rttable_n2a and rtnl_rtrealm_n2a aren't
available if they were turned off. TODO: Talk to vda about this

- set the scope properly. Thanks to Jean Wolter, who wrote:
...
busybox ip and the original ip utility behave differently when setting
the following route (verified with ip route show using the original ip
utility):
ip route add 10.0.0.138 dev eth0
Result for busybox ip:
# ip route add 10.0.0.138 dev eth0
# /usr/local/bin/ip route show
10.0.0.138 dev eth0
Result for ip:
# /usr/local/bin/ip route add 10.0.0.138 dev eth0
# /usr/local/bin/ip route show
10.0.0.138 dev eth0 scope link
A following "ip route add default via 10.0.0.138" fails for busybox
ip, since the kernel can not find a route to 10.0.0.138 (it replies
with Network is unreachable).
The reasons seems to be that the original ip utility explicitly sets
the scope after parsing all parameters. This is missing in busybox,
the attached patch fixes this. I took this from the original iproute
sources and removed some variables, which are not needed for busybox.

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.

Hello,
Last November a bug was found in iproute. CAN-2003-0856 has more information.
Basically, netlink packets can come from any user. If a program performs action
based on netlink packets, they must be examined to make sure they came from the
place they are expected (the kernel).
Attached is a patch against pre8. Please apply this before releasing 1.00 final.
All users of busy box may be vulnerable to local attacks without it.
Best Regards,
Steve Grubb
