We're using busybox and thank the authors.
I found a short buffer allocation at busybox/sysklod/syslod.c. It
mis-declares length of filenames, seems to forget for '\0' or two
column numbered suffix of backup files (ex. messages.10).
Here is a patch for the problem.
Thanks.
scripts/config from distclean to clean) with a sed consolidation that's
been in my tree for a bit, and switching the GPL boilerplate to just point

a meaningless warning. But I do expect you preserve the coding style
and variable names when all you're doing is tweaking some of my code.
I repeat... do NOT change whitespace, variable names, or coding style in
any of my code simply to conform to your coding style.
Summary 0000242: ash: read -t broken
this also implements -n and -s options to read. (they're configured
together because most of their code is in common, and separating them
seemed silly.
work at transmeta anymore so that email's bogus, B) hands up everybody who

as far as I can tell, are no longer relevant. Modern busybox refuses to
build under libc5 (there's a specific test and #error for that), and
I'm not sure building against 2.1 kernel headers on Alpha was ever relevant.
I'm happy to put any of this back if anybody can point to a real need for it,
but if so we need to specifically document what environment is being
compensated for. (And we should quarrantine the build environment code
into one place, anyway. Maybe "quirks.h" for known compiler and
libc quirks?)
This fixes the warning, and makes the binary smaller out of sheer pique.
(Yes, since Manuel did this one it's nice tight code that took several
attempts to shrink, but I was ticked.)
Add the start of a test for uniq; this is about the first 1/3 of the
tests we need for full susv3 coverage of uniq.
CONFIG_NUMERIC_CONSTANT=
And on reading it back in, it would complain that '' was an invalid value for
that field. I.E. "make allnoconfig && make" worked fine, but
"make allnoconfig && make menuconfig" barfed reading in the config file.
So now I have it write out "0" as the blank value. (It's initialized to the
default value when the menu becomes visible anyway; I checked.) That seems
to work.
./busybox getopt -n one -n two woot
./busybox getopt -o one -o two woot
This entire applet is still an enormous pile of garbage, which I can't clean
up because I really have no idea what it's for. (Both "man getopt" and trying
it out on the command line a bit fail to enlighten me. Reading the code, the
fact half of it seems to be special cases for bash vs tcsh does not fill me
with confidence.)
The configure system's save function edited out sub-menus that wouldn't be
displayed in the current configuration, meaning config.h wouldn't have #udef
entries for those symbols, meaning bb_config.h would have the relevant
ENABLE_ missing instead of defined to 0. This broke the build.
So I fixed it, and then reorganized the applets.c and busybox.c to take
away the warnings this revealed (code that would be optimized out was making
calls to functions that hadn't been prototyped. So I added an #else case
to those #ifdefs to #define the relevant functions to empty macros to
placate the warnings.
I also reorganized the applets.c code to make adding such an #else case less
of a pain (and make the need for prototyping go away by moving the functions
up before they were used, and generally wind up with fewer #ifdefs in
the code by putting all the logic in one place). This resulted in a huge
seeming patch, when most if it just moves code from one place to another
without touching it...
Upside: make allyesconfig and make allnoconfig should both work now.
