2011-08-04initramfs/init: make sure that 0, 1, 2 fds are availableThomas Petazzoni
As the kernel doesn't automatically mount devtmpfs when an initramfs is used, commit 424888e47431db738f5f9b3c6392435bfce7a842 has introduced a small wrapper script that mounts devtmpfs before starting the real init. Unfortunately, the problem is that in this case, the init process runs without any 0, 1 and 2 file descriptors, so none of the messages/errors printed by the various initialization scripts can be seen. This is due to the fact the init process relies on 0, 1 and 2 being opened by the kernel before init is started. However, as /dev/console isn't present on the filesystem at the time the kernel tries to open the console to create the 0, 1 and 2 file descriptors, the kernel fails on this and prints the famous "Warning: unable to open an initial console". The proposed workaround is to actually open 0, 1 and 2 to /dev/console in the wrapper script, right after mounting the devtmpfs filesystem, and before starting the real init. The "Warning" from the kernel is still shown, but at least the messages from the init scripts are visible.

2011-07-25System config: split static-dev device table setting into seperate optionPeter Korsgaard
As discussed here: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-May/043251.html Add BR2_ROOTFS_STATIC_DEVICE_TABLE for the extra device table file(s) to create device nodes in /dev, rather than complicated logic in BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE, making it complicated to move between static and dynamic modes.

2011-07-20initramfs: fix boot with dynamic /devPeter Korsgaard
Devtmpfs (which is used by devtmpfs/mdev/udev options) doesn't get automounted by the kernel when an initramfs is used, causing boot failures when a dynamic /dev is used. Fix it by adding a pre-init script to mount devtmpfs before running init. Reported-by: Arnout Vandecappelle <arnout@mind.be> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2011-07-18sh: Fix Buildroot sh targets to match gnuconfig targetsPhil Edworthy
sh2eb and sh2a_nofpueb gnuconfig targets are no longer supported in Buildroot. This patch replaces these Buildroot targets with sh2 and sh2a respectively, and adds sh4a targets as these are widely used. To build for devices without an fpu, the relevant toolchain flags will have to be specified.

2011-05-09Allow several device tables and split in two parts our device tableThomas Petazzoni
This allows to have a device table for all directories/files and another device table for the device files themselves. Both are needed for static /dev, but only the first one is needed when devtmpfs/mdev/udev are used. We take this opportunity to move the documentation of the device table format in a common location, package/makedevs/README.

2011-05-09Create menu entry to select device creation methodYegor Yefremov
Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now proposed: - static method uses device table as before - devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel - mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system and selects mdev itself for installation - udev method selects udev for installation All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care about /dev folder.

2010-06-22linux: add support for initramfsThomas Petazzoni
In Buildroot, the kernel is built and installed *before* the root filesystems are built. This allows the root filesystem to correctly contain the kernel modules that have been installed. However, in the initramfs case, the root filesystem is part of the kernel. Therefore, the kernel should be built *after* the root filesystem (which, in the initramfs case simply builds a text file listing all files/directories/devices/symlinks that should be part of the initramfs). However, this isn't possible as the initramfs text file would lack all kernel modules. So, the solution choosen here is to keep the normal order: kernel is built before the root filesystem is generated, and to add a little quirk to retrigger a kernel compilation after the root filesystem generation. To do so, we add a ROOTFS_$(FSTYPE)_POST_TARGETS variable to the fs/common.mk infrastructure. This allows individual filesystems to set a target name that we should depend on *after* generating the root filesystem itself (contrary to normal ROOTFS_$(FSTYPE)_DEPENDENCIES, on which we depend *before* generating the root filesystem). The initramfs code in fs/initramfs/initramfs.mk uses this to add a dependency on 'linux26-rebuild-with-initramfs'. In linux/linux.mk, we do various things : * If BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS is enabled (i.e if initramfs is enabled as a root filesystem type), then we create an empty rootfs.initramfs file (remember that at this point, the root filesystem hasn't been generated) and we adjust the kernel configuration to include an initramfs. Of course, in the initial kernel build, this initramfs will be empty. * In the linux26-rebuild-with-initramfs target, we retrigger a compilation of the kernel image, after removing the initramfs in the kernel sources to make sure it gets properly rebuilt (we've experienced cases were modifying the rootfs.initramfs file wouldn't retrigger the generation of the initramfs at the kernel level). This is fairly quirky, but initramfs really is a special case, so in one way or another, we need a little quirk to solve its specialness.

2010-06-05jffs2: let makedevs create device filesThomas Petazzoni
The common filesystem infrastructure in fs/common.mk uses a smart combination of makedevs and fakeroot to create the device files in the target filesystem images without being root. This technique is applied to all filesystem formats that rely on this common infrastructure, and JFFS2 is one of them. Therefore, using the -D option of mkfs.jffs2, which allows to specify a device table, is redundant with the usage of makedevs. And it is worst than redundant: for some reason, -D does not create all device files with the correct major and minor numbers, as reported in bug #1771. For coherence, we just remove the usage of mkfs.jffs2 -D option, and rely on makedevs/fakeroot to create the device files. This commit fixes bug #1771.
