In BusyBox v1.00-pre2,
commands like ls, df with -h option report a wrong file size for files larger than 4GBtye!!
For example,
when I execute 'ls -l', it reports
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5368709120 Aug 17 2003 large_stream.tp
when I execute 'ls -lh', I expect that
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5.0G Aug 17 2003 large_stream.tp
but it reports
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.0G Aug 17 2003 large_stream.tp
I fixed this bug that...
Line 31 in libbb/human_readable.c and line 275 include/libbb.h
const char *make_human_readable_str(unsigned long size
=> const char *make_human_readable_str(unsigned long long size
It's OK!
The attached patch adds "mtu" and "hwaddress" to the inet6 method and
"mtu", "hwaddr" and "pointopoint" to the inet4 method (just like in
the ifupdown part).
Note: "hwaddress" can't be used with the busybox ip applet (this
function isn't implemented in bb ip yet), but it can be of use with
an external "full blown" ip package.
The patch also removes "label" from the loopback configuration,
labels (subinterfaces) aren't used with loopback interfaces.
It further solves a problem in the bootp method, "ifconfig down
%interface%" should be "ifconfig %interface% down" and it's now also
possible to use ip with bootp.
The patch is fully tested with both busybox ip and "stand-alone" ip
and I didn't saw any problems.

Ok. Patch attached.
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?
the output of lsmod (busybox-1.00-pre2) contains IMHO one "\n" too
much when using CONFIG_FEATURE_CHECK_TAINTED_MODULE:
~ # lsmod
Module Size Used by Tainted: P
ds 8364 1
m8xx_pcmcia 5388 1
pcmcia_core 40736 0 [ds m8xx_pcmcia]
and this patch from Steven fixes the problem
I've reported this bug in April and it still
exists in 1.00-pre2. So I made patches for
both 0.60.x and 1.00-pre2. The patch is very
simple, just use strncmp instead of strcmp.
Please apply if it is OK.
Here's the procedure to test this problem:
Create a executable with very long name, say
'test_1234567890123456' and execute it. Try
using 'killall' or 'pidof' to find/kill this
program. Without this patch, you can't find
the program.
If we read the contents of compressed files within the ar archive,
e.g. control.tar.gz, then file position gets all out of whack, so
it has to be reset before reading thenext header.
When using "losetup" the device is always setup as Read-Only.
(I have only tested with the -o flag, but looking at the code the
problem seems general)
The problem is the "opt" variable in "losetup.c" that is reused in
the "set_loop()" call. Clear it before the call and everything is OK;
opt = 0; /* <-------- added line */
if (delete)
return del_loop (argv[optind]) ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE;
else
return set_loop (argv[optind], argv[optind + 1], offset, &opt)
? EXIT_FAILURE : EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

The recent changes in ifupdown where all calls to 'ip link set' and
'ip addr set' are swapped give some problems with v4tunnels.
For plain ipv4 and ipv6 interfaces it works correct, other methods
not tried. The patch below change the behaviour back for v4tunnels
only.
Without the patch the following errors are shown:
RTNETLINK answers: Network is down
RTNETLINK answers: No route to host
and the tunnel is not fully brought up
With this patch all works as expected.
