[Buildroot] SSHFS userland support

[Gregory Perry]

Hello list members!

I am doing a buildroot integration for an i386 target but I can't for the life of me figure out how to include SSHFS userland support (the SSHFS binary itself.  I've selected the FUSE filesystem dependencies as well as support for OpenSSH, but the sshfs binary needed to instantiate an SSH/FUSE connection is not present in the target.

Maybe this is a dependency issue, or did I miss an SSHFS config option in the menuconfig?

Thanks in advance

sshfs is provided by separate package:

    Package Selection for the target  --->
        Filesystem and flash utilities  --->
            [ ] sshfs (FUSE)

Thanks Yann.

Using the most recent buildroot-stable, there is no sshfs option under that
menu, only a squashfs option.  But what's weird about it, directly under
the squashfs option is a "*** sshfs requires a toolchain..." message.  Maybe
there is a typo/bug with the most recent buildroot-stable?  Or do I not have
the right FUSE dependencies selected elsewhere?

Thanks in advance

"sshfs requires a toolchain with LARGEFILE, WCHAR and threads support"

That means go to the toolchain menu and enable the requested options,
it'll show up then, you'll see.
