The Advanced XIP File System is a Linux kernel filesystem driver that
enables files to be executed directly from flash or ROM memory rather
than being copied into RAM. It has the ability to store individual
*pages* in a file uncompressed/XIP or compressed/Demand Paged.
This commit only adds support for 'XIP all' mode, so all the files that
have the execute attribute set will be XIP'ed.
At the moment, the FS is not supported in Linux mainline (v4.3-rc5), so
the kernel has to be built with the axfs patches to be able to read it.

This commit adds a similiar <fs>_POST_GEN_HOOKS variable, which will

image has been generated. It will initially be used by the iso9660
filesystem to delete the temporary directory it creates.

The code in fs/common.mk properly triggers the build of host-mkpasswd
when at least one package specifies a <pkg>_USERS variable. However,
when no selected package specifies a <pkg>_USERS variable but the user
uses a custom users table through BR2_ROOTFS_USERS_TABLES, then we
forget to build host-mkpasswd, leading to build failures if you don't
have mkpasswd installed in your machine.
This commit fixes that by taking into account both the package users
table and the custom users table when deciding to depend or not on
host-mkpasswd.

Until now, the iso9660 filesystem handling only supported using an
initrd/initramfs to store the root filesystem, which is very different
from what we do with the other filesystems.
This commit changes the iso9660 logic to also allow using directly an
iso9660 filesystem to store the root filesystem. A new option,
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660_INITRD, is created to tell the iso9660 that
we want to use an initrd and not directly the root filesystem in
iso9660 format. This option defaults to 'y' to preserve the existing
behavior.
After this commit, we therefore have three possibilities:
* BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660=y, with BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS and
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660_INITRD disabled. In this case, the
iso9660 filesystem is directly the contents of the root filesystem
(since is possible thanks to the Rockridge extensions that were
already enabled using the -R option of genisoimage). Obviously, it
means that the root filesystem is read-only.
* BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660=y and BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS=y (the
value of BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660_INITRD doesn't matter). In this
case, the root filesystem is already linked into the kernel image
itself, as an initramfs. So the iso9660 filesystem doesn't contain
the root filesystem as is, but just the bootloader and the kernel
image.
* BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660=y, BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_ISO9660_INITRD=y and
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS disabled. In this case, a separate
initrd is used. The iso9660 filesystem only contains the
bootloader, the kernel and the initrd.
In order to support the first case out of the box, root=/dev/sr0 is
added on the kernel command line in the example Grub configuration
file, so that the kernel knows where the root filesystem is
located. This argument is ignored when initrd/initramfs are used.

The iso9660.mk modifies the menu.lst file from Grub to set the correct
initrd/kernel image locations. However, with the upcoming support of
other bootloaders for iso9660 filesystems, we need to modify a bit
this logic.
Instead of relying on the specific details of the grub menu.lst
syntax, we introduce the __KERNEL_PATH__ and __INITRD_PATH__ magic
keywords, which iso9660.mk will replace by the appropriate
values. They can therefore be used where needed in grub menu.lst, and
in similar configuration files of other bootloaders, as will be
supported in the following commits.
Also, in order to be consistent with the soon to be introduced support
for having the root filesystem itself as iso9660, this commit changes
the installation location of the initrd and kernel. Instead of being
/initrd and /kernel, they become /boot/initrd and
/boot/$(LINUX_IMAGE_NAME).

Fixes#8186
Mkfs.jffs2 accepts a --pagesize parameter, which allows specifying the size
of the virtual memory page size of the target machine, where the image will
be used. (This is the value of the PAGE_SIZE macro in Linux.) In most cases
the parameter doesn't need to be set as the default value of 4 kB is usually
correct.
The parameter was used incorrectly in Buildroot -- it was set to the page
size of flash memory chip -- this commit fixes this problem. Now the
--pagesize parameter is not used at all (unless the user explicitly chooses
to use a custom value during configuration). All existing defconfigs were
corrected to match the new configuration variable names.

(host-mtd, host-genext2fs, etc.). But some file systems (rootfs-ubi)
depend on other filesystem images (rootfs-ubifs). And such targets
should not be added to PACKAGES, otherwise an incorrect circular
dependency is created.

dependencies that do *not* start with rootfs- to the global PACKAGES

Currently, we are using a shell script called genext2fs, that
impersonates the real genext2fs. But that script does much more than
just call genextfs: it also calls tune2fs and e2fsck.
Because it impersonates genext2fs, we can not easily add new options,
and are constrained by the genext2fs options.
But it turns out that, of all the options supported by the real
genext2fs, we only really care for a subset, namely:
- number of blocks
- number of inodes
- percentage of blocks reeserved to root
- the root directory which to generate the image from
So, we introduce a new host package, mke2img, that is intended to
eventually replace genext2fs.sh.
This new script is highly modeled from the existing genext2fs.sh, but
was slightly refreshed, and a new, supposedly sane set of options has
been choosen for the features we need (see above), and some new options
were added, too, rather than relying on the arguments order or
environment variables:
-b <nb-blocks> number of blocks in the filesystem
-i <nb-inodes> number of inodes in the filesystem
-r <pc-reserved> percentage of reserved blocks
* -d <root-dir> directory containing the root of the filesystem
* -o <img-file> output image file
-G <ext-gen> extfs generation: 2, 3, or 4 (default: 2)
-R <ext-rev> ext2 revision: 0 or 1 (default 1)
-l <label> filesystem label
-u <uid> filesystem UUID; if not specified, a random one is used
* Mandatory options
Since the upstream e2fsprogs are expected to release a new mke2fs that
will be able to generate a filesystem image from a directory, we then
will be able to replace all the logic in mke2img, to use mke2fs instead
of the (relatively fragile) combination of the three tools we currently
use.
An entry is added for it in the "Host utilities" menu, so it can be
selected for use by post-{build,image} scripts. The ext2 filesystem
selection is changed to select that now.

The Buildroot coding style defines one space around make assignments and
does not align the assignment symbols.
This patch does a bulk fix of offending packages. The package
infrastructures (or more in general assignments to calculated variable
names, like $(2)_FOO) are not touched.
Alignment of line continuation characters (\) is kept as-is.
The sed command used to do this replacement is:
find * -name "*.mk" | xargs sed -i \
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*$#\1 \2#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\]\+\)$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)\s*$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\(\s*\\\)#\1 \2\3#'
Brief explanation of this command:
^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\) a regular variable at the beginning of the line
\([?:+]\?=\) any assignment character =, :=, ?=, +=
\([^\\]\+\) any string not containing a line continuation
\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\) string, optional whitespace, followed by a
line continuation character
\(\s*\\\) optional whitespace, followed by a line
continuation character
Hence, the first subexpression handles empty assignments, the second
handles regular assignments, the third handles regular assignments with
line continuation, and the fourth empty assignments with line
continuation.
This expression was tested on following test text: (initial tab not
included)
FOO = spaces before
FOO = spaces before and after
FOO = tab before
FOO = tab and spaces before
FOO = tab after
FOO = tab and spaces after
FOO = spaces and tab after
FOO = \
FOO = bar \
FOO = bar space \
FOO = \
GENIMAGE_DEPENDENCIES = host-pkgconf libconfuse
FOO += spaces before
FOO ?= spaces before and after
FOO :=
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
$(MAKE1) CROSS_COMPILE=$(TARGET_CROSS) -C
AT91BOOTSTRAP3_DEFCONFIG = \
AXEL_DISABLE_I18N=--i18n=0
After this bulk change, following manual fixups were done:
- fix line continuation alignment in cegui06 and spice (the sed
expression leaves the number of whitespace between the value and line
continuation character intact, but the whitespace before that could have
changed, causing misalignment.
- qt5base was reverted, as this package uses extensive alignment which
actually makes the code more readable.
Finally, the end result was manually reviewed.

The inner-xxx-targets in the buildroot package infrastructures are
evaluated using $(eval) which causes variable references to be a bit
different than in regular make code. As we want most references to be
expanded only at the time of the $(eval) we should not use standard
references $(VAR) but rather use double dollar signs $$(VAR). This includes
function references like $(call), $(subst), etc. The only exception is the
reference to pkgdir/pkgname and numbered variables, which are parameters to
the inner block: $(1), $(2), etc.
This patch introduces consistent usage of double-dollar signs throughout the
different inner-xxx-targets blocks.
In some cases, this would potentially cause circular references, in
particular when the value of HOST_FOO_VAR would be obtained from the
corresponding FOO_VAR if HOST_FOO_VAR is not defined. In these cases, a test
is added to check for a host package (the only case where such constructions
are relevant; these are not circular).
Benefits of these changes are:
- behavior of variables is now again as expected. For example, setting
$(2)_VERSION = virtual in pkg-virtual.mk will effectively work, while
originally it would cause very odd results.
- The output of 'make printvars' is now much more useful. This target shows
the value of all variables, and the expression that led to that value.
However, if the expression was coming from an inner-xxx-targets block, and
was using single dollar signs, it would show in printvars as
VAR = value (value)
while if double dollar signs are used, it would effectively look like
VAR = value (actual expression)
as is intended.
This improvement is for example effective for FOO_DL_VERSION, FOO_RAWNAME,
FOO_SITE_METHOD and FOO_MAKE.
The correctness of this patch has been verified using 'make printvars',
'make manual' and 'make legal-info' before and after applying this patch,

Currently, the symlinks in the generated filesystems will have the
UID of the user running the build, because 'chown' does not change
the ownership of symlinks, by default.
Although the implications are limited, some may not want that UID
to leak in the generated filesystems.
So, use 'chown -h' so even symlinks get properly chowned.

Closes#7160
Since f46f81de13 (Don't build host-xz needlessly), host-xz is no longer
unconditionally built when xz fs compression is requested, so don't
explicitly refer to it.
Instead, rely on our check-host-xzcat logic to ensure xz is available and
set the path to ensure our host variant gets picked up if not available on
the build machine.
While we're at it, get rid of the now unused XZ variable.

When using the tar filesystem method, the build output shows at the end:
echo " tar -c""f <br>/output/images/rootfs.tar -C <br>/output/target ." >>
<br>/output/build/_fakeroot.fs
The inner set of quotes can be easily removed by properly stripping the tar
options (coming from the buildroot configuration).

export PATH=$(BR_PATH) so that the fakerooted script uses our
own tools before any of the host-system ones.
