Hi to all,
here is a new patch for bb's devfsd. The news are:
1) Size reduction for the basic setup with no options compiled in from :
text data bss dec hex filename
10591 392 543 11526 2d06 devfsd.o
rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18536 Dec 18 21:52 devfsd.o
to:
text data bss dec hex filename
9303 392 543 10238 27fe devfsd.o
rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16528 Dec 18 22:02 devfsd.o
With this setup you should not expect much output from devfsd
( just at start or with -v) and if some error occurs it only exits 1.
To have more output enable: " Increases logging (and size)" (+1568 b).
2) The option "Adds function names to program output" was removed from config menu
and now to enable debug output you can use bb's standard option:
"Build BusyBox with Debugging symbols".
Be careful as with this option enabled a lot of data are outputted to /dev/log and/or to stderr.
3) A new option: "Enables the -fg and -np option" was added to config menu (+128 b).
BTW: option "Adds support for MODLOAD keyword in devsfd.conf" adds 268 b.
4) The following keywords in devsfd.conf are supported:
"CLEAR_CONFIG", "INCLUDE", "OPTIONAL_INCLUDE", "RESTORE",
"PERMISSIONS", "EXECUTE", "COPY", "IGNORE", "MKOLDCOMPAT",
"MKNEWCOMPAT","RMOLDCOMPAT", "RMNEWCOMPAT".
But only if they are written UPPERCASE!!!!!!!!
5)Help text in usage.h was modified.
6)Something that I have forgotten..........
I've tested this for the last week on my box and it seems to work as expected.
Thanks in advance and please apply.
Ciao,
Tito
