[PATCH 1/1] busybox: Include setsid and cttyhack in defconfig

[Darren Hart]

When building very small systems, it can be useful to spawn a shell
from a simple init script, rather than a full System V Init
process. This requires the shell be the session leader and be able
to open the controlling terminal if it is to have job control.

Enable CONFIG_CTTYHACK and CONFIG_SETSID to enable this. The resulting
busybox binary does not change in size (I checked several times!).

Aha, OK, I'm hitting the menuconfig/sstate bug. By bumping the PR I was
able to get real numbers.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 dvhart dvhart 561828 2012-06-15 15:52 /home/dvhart/busybox-r8-sci
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dvhart dvhart 559268 2012-06-15 15:54 /home/dvhart/busybox-r9-i

So the delta for including SETSID and CTTYHACK is 2560 bytes.

The patch comment in the branch has been updated accordingly.

Personally I am still not in favour of adding this to the default
configuration.  I appreciate that it's "only" 2.5k in this case, but
every time we make a change like this the binary gets a little bit
bigger and, over time, it does add up.  This sort of gradual bloat is
quite insidious and difficult to combat after the fact.

So, I continue to think that poky-tiny should just provide its own
busybox configuration and turn on the options that it wants just like
other DISTROs do.  No doubt there are some things currently included in
the oe-core defaults that poky-tiny doesn't need, so you would probably
get a smaller binary that way as well.

You are correct that poky-tiny would benefit from a smaller config. My
original intent was to update the busybox recipe to use the new
merge-config.sh that we pushed to the upstream Linux kernel (which
should work with busybox as it uses the same config mechanism). This
would allow us to maintain a base busybox config with a several config
fragments that can be easily added via DISTRO_FEATURES rather than the
complicated hack that is in busybox now for handling DISTRO_FEATURES. I
prefer this approach as it reduces (if not eliminates) the need for the
proliferation of busybox.bbappend files.

However, this is a larger project and my immediate goal is to get
poky-tiny into better shape in terms of the initial experience. This is
why I originally implemented it as a "tiny" DISTRO_FEATURE as that would
migrate naturally to the config fragment approach. You and others
objected to that approach, and I do understand not wanting to complicate
the DISTRO_FEATURE logic further.

With the above goal in mind, can you accept either of my proposed
patches as an interim solution? Either as an added tiny DISTRO_FEATURE
or as a simple addition to the defconfig? I do believe these two
features are useful beyond poky-tiny.

in retrospect I agree with Phil on gradual bloat. busybox and other
kconfig based
packages will always have fine tunings that we can never say one size
fits all unless
you enable everything and I think the purpose of using kconfig in
those packages is to provide this fine level of configuration

. using merge-config.sh will probably make things better but until
then I don't think its a bad thing to have bbappends in current
scenario

I think best approach here is to have the defconfig of own in
poky-tiny layer. It will
be a contained change.

Note that poky-tiny is not currently in its own layer, but is included
in the meta-intel layer. I will look into ways to accomplish this
without adding to the core busybox config and not having to break out
poky-tiny into its own layer.

I appreciate the careful thought and consideration.

What is it with you intel folks (bless their hearts) wanting to combine BSP and distro? baerion, guacamayo and poky-tiny all force you to include the distro stuff if you want any of their recipes. I don't want to have all the hostnames on my boards changed to 'baerion' when I build mediatomb!

All of these efforts are separate and put together by different people.

Firstly, I think when Darren said "meta-intel" he meant to say "meta-yocto" 
which is where the poky-tiny distro config can be found (and indeed that is 
where I would expect to find it).

Secondly, you already asked me about Baryon and I already agreed that it 
needed reorganising and promised to do it; but I haven't had time yet. I'd 
also point out in any case that it does not contain any BSP and the mere 
presence of the baryon distro config does not force you to use it as you 
suggest.

meta-yocto is then a distro layer as well as machine layer since the
reference yocto hardware are defined in same layer. and since
poky/poky-tiny are the distro policies for yocto I agree it makes
sense to have the busybox change in meta-yocto

it does force the distro bbappends onto everyone, messing up /etc/hostname

Thanks! I'll add it to the angstrom layer stack later this week.

Well, you could do that, but I have to say I never intended meta-baryon to be 
the proper home for the additional recipes that it contains, and indeed it 
duplicates some already in meta-oe (so it did not have to pull in meta-oe).

If you wanted to add the new recipes it contains somewhere else then I'd be 
more than happy for that to happen, or I'll get round to doing it some time in 
the near future. FYI what's there that's not currently in any other layer 
(excluding ffmpeg):

* faac [added for ffmpeg]
* ffmpeg [I'm guessing you won't want this, but mediatomb/ffmpegthumbnailer will 
need fixing up to use libav instead if you don't.]
* ffmpegthumbnailer
* libgsm [added for ffmpeg but probably could have been disabled instead]
* mediatomb
* proftpd
* schroedinger [added for ffmpeg]
* webmin [might need some tweaking]
* webmin-notice [might not be particularly interesting]

The libav adaptation is one of the reasons I haven't done this yet as it looks 
like it might not be a 5 minute job.

Cheers,
Paul

Well, obviously it isn't my place to accept or reject your patch; one of
the oe-core maintainers would have to make that decision.  But,
personally, given a choice between those two options I would prefer the
latter.

However, I do still think that the best interim approach is just to
provide a suitable, complete defconfig file in whatever layer contains
poky-tiny.  This doesn't need to involve splitting poky-tiny into its
own layer, doesn't require any extra tooling in oe-core in the short
term, and doesn't necessarily even need to involve a .bbappend (although
it would probably be easiest if it did).

I'm going to look into this approach today.
