#
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_HAVE_DOT_CONFIG
bool
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_HAVE_DOT_CONFIG
menu "Busybox Settings"
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_DESKTOP
bool "Enable options for full-blown desktop systems"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_DESKTOP
help
Enable options and features which are not essential.
Select this if you plan to use busybox on full-blown desktop machine
with common Linux distro, which needs higher level of command-line
compatibility.
If you are preparing your build to be used on an embedded box
where you have tighter control over the entire set of userspace
tools, you can unselect this option for smaller code size.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_EXTRA_COMPAT
bool "Provide compatible behavior for rare corner cases (bigger code)"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_EXTRA_COMPAT
help
This option makes grep, sed etc handle rare corner cases
(embedded NUL bytes and such). This makes code bigger and uses
some GNU extensions in libc. You probably only need this option
if you plan to run busybox on desktop.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEDORA_COMPAT
bool "Building for Fedora distribution"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEDORA_COMPAT
help
This option makes some tools behave like they do on Fedora.
At the time of this writing (2017-08) this only affects uname:
normally, uname -p (processor) and uname -i (platform)
are shown as "unknown", but with this option uname -p
shows the same string as uname -m (machine type),
and so does uname -i unless machine type is i486/i586/i686 -
then uname -i shows "i386".
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INCLUDE_SUSv2
bool "Enable obsolete features removed before SUSv3"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_INCLUDE_SUSv2
help
This option will enable backwards compatibility with SuSv2,
specifically, old-style numeric options ('command -1 <file>')
will be supported in head, tail, and fold. (Note: should
affect renice too.)
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_USE_PORTABLE_CODE
bool "Avoid using GCC-specific code constructs"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_USE_PORTABLE_CODE
help
Use this option if you are trying to compile busybox with
compiler other than gcc.
If you do use gcc, this option may needlessly increase code size.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_SHOW_USAGE
bool "Show applet usage messages"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_SHOW_USAGE
help
Enabling this option, BusyBox applets will show terse help messages
when invoked with wrong arguments.
If you do not want to show any (helpful) usage message when
issuing wrong command syntax, you can say 'N' here,
saving approximately 7k.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_VERBOSE_USAGE
bool "Show verbose applet usage messages"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_VERBOSE_USAGE
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_SHOW_USAGE
help
All BusyBox applets will show verbose help messages when
busybox is invoked with --help. This will add a lot of text to the
busybox binary. In the default configuration, this will add about
13k, but it can add much more depending on your configuration.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_COMPRESS_USAGE
bool "Store applet usage messages in compressed form"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_COMPRESS_USAGE
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_SHOW_USAGE
help
Store usage messages in .bz compressed form, uncompress them
on-the-fly when <applet> --help is called.
If you have a really tiny busybox with few applets enabled (and
bunzip2 isn't one of them), the overhead of the decompressor might
be noticeable. Also, if you run executables directly from ROM
and have very little memory, this might not be a win. Otherwise,
you probably want this.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BUSYBOX
bool "Include busybox applet"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_BUSYBOX
help
The busybox applet provides general help regarding busybox and
allows the included applets to be listed. It's also required
if applet links are to be installed at runtime.
If you can live without these features disabling this will save
some space.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INSTALLER
bool "Support --install [-s] to install applet links at runtime"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_INSTALLER
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BUSYBOX
help
Enable 'busybox --install [-s]' support. This will allow you to use
busybox at runtime to create hard links or symlinks for all the
applets that are compiled into busybox.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INSTALL_NO_USR
bool "Don't use /usr"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_INSTALL_NO_USR
help
Disable use of /usr. busybox --install and "make install"
will install applets only to /bin and /sbin,
never to /usr/bin or /usr/sbin.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_PAM
bool "Support PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules)"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_PAM
help
Use PAM in some busybox applets (currently login and httpd) instead
of direct access to password database.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_LONG_OPTS
bool "Support --long-options"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_LONG_OPTS
help
Enable this if you want busybox applets to use the gnu --long-option
style, in addition to single character -a -b -c style options.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_DEVPTS
bool "Use the devpts filesystem for Unix98 PTYs"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_DEVPTS
help
Enable if you want BusyBox to use Unix98 PTY support. If enabled,
busybox will use /dev/ptmx for the master side of the pseudoterminal
and /dev/pts/<number> for the slave side. Otherwise, BSD style
/dev/ttyp<number> will be used. To use this option, you should have
devpts mounted.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP
bool "Clean up all memory before exiting (usually not needed)"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP
help
As a size optimization, busybox normally exits without explicitly
freeing dynamically allocated memory or closing files. This saves
space since the OS will clean up for us, but it can confuse debuggers
like valgrind, which report tons of memory and resource leaks.
Don't enable this unless you have a really good reason to clean
things up manually.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_UTMP
bool "Support utmp file"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_UTMP
help
The file /var/run/utmp is used to track who is currently logged in.
With this option on, certain applets (getty, login, telnetd etc)
will create and delete entries there.
"who" applet requires this option.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_WTMP
bool "Support wtmp file"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_WTMP
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_UTMP
help
The file /var/run/wtmp is used to track when users have logged into
and logged out of the system.
With this option on, certain applets (getty, login, telnetd etc)
will append new entries there.
"last" applet requires this option.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_PIDFILE
bool "Support writing pidfiles"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_PIDFILE
help
This option makes some applets (e.g. crond, syslogd, inetd) write
a pidfile at the configured PID_FILE_PATH. It has no effect
on applets which require pidfiles to run.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_PID_FILE_PATH
string "Path to directory for pidfile"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_PID_FILE_PATH
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_PIDFILE
help
This is the default path where pidfiles are created. Applets which
allow you to set the pidfile path on the command line will override
this value. The option has no effect on applets that require you to
specify a pidfile path.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SUID
bool "Support SUID/SGID handling"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_SUID
help
With this option you can install the busybox binary belonging
to root with the suid bit set, enabling some applets to perform
root-level operations even when run by ordinary users
(for example, mounting of user mounts in fstab needs this).
Busybox will automatically drop privileges for applets
that don't need root access.
If you are really paranoid and don't want to do this, build two
busybox binaries with different applets in them (and the appropriate
symlinks pointing to each binary), and only set the suid bit on the
one that needs it.
The applets which require root rights (need suid bit or
to be run by root) and will refuse to execute otherwise:
crontab, login, passwd, su, vlock, wall.
The applets which will use root rights if they have them
(via suid bit, or because run by root), but would try to work
without root right nevertheless:
findfs, ping[6], traceroute[6], mount.
Note that if you DONT select this option, but DO make busybox
suid root, ALL applets will run under root, which is a huge
security hole (think "cp /some/file /etc/passwd").
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SUID_CONFIG
bool "Runtime SUID/SGID configuration via /etc/busybox.conf"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_SUID_CONFIG
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SUID
help
Allow the SUID / SGID state of an applet to be determined at runtime
by checking /etc/busybox.conf. (This is sort of a poor man's sudo.)
The format of this file is as follows:
APPLET = [Ssx-][Ssx-][x-] [USER.GROUP]
s: USER or GROUP is allowed to execute APPLET.
APPLET will run under USER or GROUP
(reagardless of who's running it).
S: USER or GROUP is NOT allowed to execute APPLET.
APPLET will run under USER or GROUP.
This option is not very sensical.
x: USER/GROUP/others are allowed to execute APPLET.
No UID/GID change will be done when it is run.
-: USER/GROUP/others are not allowed to execute APPLET.
An example might help:
[SUID]
su = ssx root.0 # applet su can be run by anyone and runs with
# euid=0/egid=0
su = ssx # exactly the same
mount = sx- root.disk # applet mount can be run by root and members
# of group disk (but not anyone else)
# and runs with euid=0 (egid is not changed)
cp = --- # disable applet cp for everyone
The file has to be owned by user root, group root and has to be
writeable only by root:
(chown 0.0 /etc/busybox.conf; chmod 600 /etc/busybox.conf)
The busybox executable has to be owned by user root, group
root and has to be setuid root for this to work:
(chown 0.0 /bin/busybox; chmod 4755 /bin/busybox)
Robert 'sandman' Griebl has more information here:
<url: http://www.softforge.de/bb/suid.html >.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SUID_CONFIG_QUIET
bool "Suppress warning message if /etc/busybox.conf is not readable"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_SUID_CONFIG_QUIET
depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SUID_CONFIG
help
/etc/busybox.conf should be readable by the user needing the SUID,
check this option to avoid users to be notified about missing
permissions.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_SELINUX
bool "Support NSA Security Enhanced Linux"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_SELINUX
select BUSYBOX_CONFIG_PLATFORM_LINUX
help
Enable support for SELinux in applets ls, ps, and id. Also provide
the option of compiling in SELinux applets.
If you do not have a complete SELinux userland installed, this stuff
will not compile. Specifially, libselinux 1.28 or better is
directly required by busybox. If the installation is located in a
non-standard directory, provide it by invoking make as follows:
CFLAGS=-I<libselinux-include-path> \
LDFLAGS=-L<libselinux-lib-path> \
make
Most people will leave this set to 'N'.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS
bool "exec prefers applets"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS
help
This is an experimental option which directs applets about to
call 'exec' to try and find an applicable busybox applet before
searching the PATH. This is typically done by exec'ing
/proc/self/exe.
This may affect shell, find -exec, xargs and similar applets.
They will use applets even if /bin/<applet> -> busybox link
is missing (or is not a link to busybox). However, this causes
problems in chroot jails without mounted /proc and with ps/top
(command name can be shown as 'exe' for applets started this way).
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BUSYBOX_EXEC_PATH
string "Path to BusyBox executable"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_BUSYBOX_EXEC_PATH
help
When Busybox applets need to run other busybox applets, BusyBox
sometimes needs to exec() itself. When the /proc filesystem is
mounted, /proc/self/exe always points to the currently running
executable. If you haven't got /proc, set this to wherever you
want to run BusyBox from.
# These are auto-selected by other options
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SYSLOG
bool #No description makes it a hidden option
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_SYSLOG
#help
# This option is auto-selected when you select any applet which may
# send its output to syslog. You do not need to select it manually.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_HAVE_RPC
bool #No description makes it a hidden option
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_FEATURE_HAVE_RPC
#help
# This is automatically selected if any of enabled applets need it.
# You do not need to select it manually.
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_PLATFORM_LINUX
bool #No description makes it a hidden option
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_PLATFORM_LINUX
#help
# For the most part, busybox requires only POSIX compatibility
# from the target system, but some applets and features use
# Linux-specific interfaces.
#
# This is automatically selected if any applet or feature requires
# Linux-specific interfaces. You do not need to select it manually.
comment 'Build Options'
config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_STATIC
bool "Build BusyBox as a static binary (no shared libs)"
default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_STATIC
help
If you want to build a static BusyBox binary, which does not
use or require any shared libraries, then enable this option.
This can cause BusyBox to be considerably larger, so you should
leave this option false unless you have a good reason (i.e.
your target platform does not support shared libraries, or
you are building an initrd which doesn't need anything but

Build a shared library libbusybox.so.N.N.N which contains all
busybox code.
This feature allows every applet to be built as a tiny
separate executable. Enabling it for "one big busybox binary"
approach serves no purpose and increases code size.
You should almost certainly say "no" to this.

If your CPU architecture doesn't allow for sharing text/rodata
sections of running binaries, but allows for runtime dynamic
libraries, this option will allow you to reduce memory footprint
when you have many different applets running at once.
If your CPU architecture allows for sharing text/rodata,
having single binary is more optimal.
Each applet will be a tiny program, dynamically linked
against libbusybox.so.N.N.N.
You need to have a working dynamic linker.

Using an additional debugging library will make BusyBox become

dmalloc support:
----------------
This enables compiling with dmalloc ( http://dmalloc.com/ )
which is an excellent public domain mem leak and malloc problem
detector. To enable dmalloc, before running busybox you will
want to properly set your environment, for example:
export DMALLOC_OPTIONS=debug=0x34f47d83,inter=100,log=logfile
The 'debug=' value is generated using the following command
dmalloc -p log-stats -p log-non-free -p log-bad-space \
-p log-elapsed-time -p check-fence -p check-heap \
-p check-lists -p check-blank -p check-funcs -p realloc-copy \
-p allow-free-null
Electric-fence support:
-----------------------
This enables compiling with Electric-fence support. Electric
fence is another very useful malloc debugging library which uses
your computer's virtual memory hardware to detect illegal memory
accesses. This support will make BusyBox be considerable larger
and run slower, so you should leave this option disabled unless
you are hunting a hard to find memory problem.
