The fakeroot script does not appear to be used in any of the checked
in defconfig targets, but it seems that most often the post
fakeroot script should be done after all the packages rules have
been applied instead of before.
Given that a change in systemd moved the SYSTEMD_PRESET_ALL hook to
a ROOTFS_PRE_CMD_HOOKS, there was no way to use a FAKEROOT script
to disable a service or fixup a systemd configuration. The systemd
move makes sense, and this just tries to preserve the same ability
to fixup a rootfs after all the cmd hooks are processed.

Set the SELinux file security contexts using setfiles when generating
root filesystem images.
Without such security contexts created at build time, they need to be
setup at first boot by running the restorecon utility on the target.
This has two drawbacks:
- You have to special case the first boot, which cannot be done in
enforcing mode, and will have to run restorecon, then reboot.
- You cannot support read-only filesystems.
By setting up the security contexts at build time, we can have a
filesystem image that is immediately ready to boot an SELinux system
in enforcing mode, including if the root filesystem is read-only.

Commit 98a6f1fc02 (fs/cpio: make initramfs init script survive 'console='
kernel argument) dropped the explicit /dev/console execs for fd 0,1,2, as
they fail when booted with console= and aren't really needed as the kernel
will setup fd 0,1,2 from /dev/console before executing the initramfs anyway.
Not doing this unfortunately confuses glibc's ttyname_r(3) implementation
(used by E.G. busybox/coreutils 'tty'), causing it to fail with ENOENT as
it does a fstat on fd 0 and tries to match up st_ino / st_dev against the
entries in /dev (since glibc 2.26):

linux ttyname and ttyname_r: do not return wrong results
If a link (say /proc/self/fd/0) pointing to a device, say /dev/pts/2, in a
parent mount namespace is passed to ttyname, and a /dev/pts/2 exists (in a
different devpts) in the current namespace, then it returns /dev/pts/2.
But /dev/pts/2 is NOT the current tty, it is a different file and device.
Detect this case and return ENODEV. Userspace can choose to take this as a hint
that the fd points to a tty device but to act on the fd rather than the link.

The reason it fails is that we manually mount devtmpfs on /dev in /init, so
the /dev/console used by the kernel (in rootfs) is not the same file as
/dev/console at runtime (in devtmpfs).
Notice: Once logged in, tty does work correctly. Presumably login reopens
stdin/stdout/stderr.
To fix this, re-add the exec of /dev/console for fd 0,1,2, but only do so if
possible. Because of the above mentioned shell behaviour (specified by
POSIX [0]), perform this check in a subshell.

When booting with 'console=<empty>' in the kernel command line (as e.g.
U-Boot does with silent flags in effect), opening /dev/console fails.
As per POSIX [0], when iany redirection fails, the shell running exec
shal exit in error. So, when 'console=<empty>' is specified.
/dev/console can't be opened, and the redirection fails, and /init is
killed.
That behaviour was fixed on the kernel side with commit 2bd3a997befc2
(Open /dev/console from rootfs), present since 2.6.34, released in May
2010, so any [dr]ecent kernel will have that fix.
Furthermore, busybox will fix things up anyway (in bb_sanitize_stdio()),
falling back to opening /dev/null if no console is availble. systemd
does a similar thing (in make_console_stdio()), and sysvinit again has
a similar approach (in console_init()).
The archealogy search turned up those relevant commits:

The redirections were added before we could guarantee there was a
/dev/console in the rootfs.
We're now guaranteed to have /dev/console in an initramfs, and any recent
kernel will automatically open /dev/console before spawning /init.
The three redirections are useless now, and cause harm under certain
conditions. Drop them.

The initramfs is not a reall filesystem, so it does not use the
$(rootfs) infrastructure.
As a consequence, the usual rootfs-related variables are not set,
especially the name, type, and dependencies of the (non-)filesystem.
Yet, it is present in the list of rootfs to build, and thus we end
up including it in the output of show-info. But the missing variables
yield an incorrect json:
"": {
"type": "",
"virtual": false,
"version": "",
"licenses": "",
"dl_dir": "",
"install_target": ,
"install_staging": ,
"install_images": ,
"downloads": [ ],
"dependencies": [ ],
"reverse_dependencies": [ ]
},
First, the object key is empty; second, the install_target,
install_staging, and install_images values are empty, which is not
valid (if they were null, that be OK though). Third, this is clearly
the layout of a 'package' entry, not that of a 'rootfs' entry.
An option to fix that would be to actually make use of the rootfs
infra. However, that would mean doing a lot of work for nothing
(there is actually nothing to do, yet the infra would still do a lot
of preparatory and clean up work).
The alternative is pretty simple: declare and set the variables as if
it were a real filesystem, so that show-info can filter it to the
proper layout and can spit out appropriate content (even if fake).
The third option would be to teach show-info (and its internal
implementation, the macro json-info) to ignore specific cases, like
no-name items, or replace empty values with null, or whatnots. This
again would be quite a lot of work for a single occurence.
So we go for the simple faked variables.
We add linux as a dependency, so that the graph-depends also properly
represent the dependency chain, which ends up with something liKe:
ALL
|
v
rootfs-initramfs
| |
v v
linux rootfs-cpio
which is pretty fitting in the end.

fakeroot by default forwards {f,l,}chown calls to libc and ignores
permission issues, which may cause issues when building in restricted
environments like user namespaces as set up with bubblewrap where a chown
call with a uid/gid not mapped in the user namespace instead returns EINVAL.
This error is not masked by fakeroot and returned to the caller, causing
failures.
There is no real reason to really perform the *chown calls in the context of
Buildroot (as the calls will likely just fail and files are not accessed
outside the fakeroot environment any way).
This forwarding can be disabled by setting the FAKEROOTDONTTRYCHOWN
environment variable, so set it when fakeroot is executed.

Currently, when we need to build the full dependency graph, we call make
to show the list of packages (make show-targets), and then call it again
and again iteratively while it returns new packages.
Since calling make will parse the whole set of our Makefiles, this takes
quite a bit of time (~4s each here), and the total can get pretty long.
However, make being make, already builds the whole dependency tree
information, so we can just ask for it.
Add a new top-level rule 'show-dependency-tree' that displays the whole
set of dependencies for all packages. For each package, its name, type
and version is displayed, then all the direct, first-level dependencies
are dumped. We choose a format that is not unlike the dot-graph format,
because it is both easy to read as a human, and easy to parse as a
machine:
foo: target 1.2.3
foo -> bar host-meh
bar: target virtual
bar -> buz
buz: target 2.3.4
buz ->
host-meh: host virtual
host-meh -> host-bleark
host-bleark: host 3.4.5
host-bleark ->
rootfs-meh: host
rootfs-meh -> host-bleark
To be noted: rootfs are currently reported as if they were 'host'
packages, to stay aligned with how graph-depends currently treats them.
Ideally, graph-depends could be enhanced to recognise them separately,
but that is another story.
For just plain defconfig, which is about the smallest config we can have
with an internal toolchain, we already have a seven-fold improvement
(with the graph-depends rule modified to not run the pdf generation, to
be able to just compare the tree generation):
$ time make graph-depends
real 0m27.344s
$ time make show-dependency-tree
real 0m3.848s
>From defconfig, C++, wchar, locales, ssp, and allyespackageconfig,
tweaked for even more packages (qt5 not qt4, luajit to avoid multi
providers, etc...), the timings are (graph-depends still modified to
not generate the pdf):
$ time make graph-depends
real 1m56.459s
$ time make show-dependency-tree
real 0m5.748s
There. I don't think those numbers need any explanation whatsoever;
they do speak on their own. OK, for maths sake, the ratio is about

In the current code, the creation of the main output directories
(BUILD_DIR, STAGING_DIR, HOST_DIR, TARGET_DIR, etc.) is done by a
global "dirs" target. While this works fine in the current situation,
it doesn't work well in a context where per-package host and target
directories are used.
For example, with the current code and per-package host directories,
the output/staging symbolic link ends up being created as a link to
the per-package package sysroot directory of the first package being
built, instead of the global sysroot.
This commit reworks the creation of those directories by having the
package/pkg-generic.mk code ensure that the build directory, target
directory, host directory, staging directory and binaries directory
exist before they are needed.
Two new targets, host-finalize and staging-finalize are added in the
main Makefile to create the compatibility symlinks for host and
staging directories. They will be extended later with additional logic
for per-package directories.
Thanks to those changes, the global "dirs" target is entirely removed.

By default, tar will not include any extended attribute (xattr) when
creating archives, and thus will not store capabilties either (as they
are stored in the xattr 'security.capability').
Using option --xattrs is enough to create a tarball with all the xattrs
attached to a file. However, extracting all xattrs from a tarball
requires that --xattrs-include='*' be used. This is not symetric (but on
purpose, as per the documentation), and so is confusing to some.
So, we use --xattrs-include='*' to create the archive, so as to be
explicit that we want all xattrs to be stored.

Since 118534fe54 (fs: use a common tarball as base for the other
filesystems), the filesystem creation is split in two steps, using an
intermediate tarball to carry the generic, common finalisations to the
per-filesystem finalisation and image creation.
However, this intermediate tarball causes an issue with capabilities:
they are entirely missing in the generated filesystems.
Capabilities are stored in the extended attribute security.capability,
which tar by default will not store/restore, unless explicitly told to,
e.g. with --xattrs-include='*', which we don't pass.
Now, passing this option when creating and extracting the intermediate
tarball, both done under fakeroot, will cause fakeroot to report an
invalid filetype for files with capabilities. mksquashfs would report
such unknown files as a warning, while mkfs.ext2 would fail (with a
similar error message), e.g.:
File [...]/usr/sbin/getcap has unrecognised filetype 0, ignoring
This is due to a poor interaction between tar and fakeroot; running as
root the exact same commands we run under fakeroot, works as expected.
Unfortunately, short of fixing fakeroot (which would first require
understanding the problem in there), we don't have much options.
The intermediate tarball was made to avoid redoing the same actions over
and over again for each filesystem to build. However, most of the time,
only one or two such filesystems would be enabled [0], and those actions
are usually pretty lightweight. So, using an intermediate tarball does
not provide a big optimisation.
The main reason to introduce the intermediate tarball, however, is that
it allows to postpone per-filesystem finalisations to be applied only
for the corresponding filesystem, not for all of them.
So, we get rid of the intermediate tarball, and simply move all of the
code to run under fakeroot to the per-filesystem fakeroot script.
Instead of extracting the intermediate tarball, we just rsync the
original target/ directory, and apply the filesystem finalisations on
that copy. The only thing still done in the rootfs-common step is to
generate the intermediate files (users file, devices file) that are used
in the fakeroot script.
Fixes: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=11216
Note: an alternate solution would have been to keep the intermediate
tarball to keep most of the common finalisations, and move only the
permissions to each filesystem, but that was getting a bit more complex
and changed the ordering of permissions and post-fakeroot scripts. Once
we bite the bullet of having some common finalisation done in each
filesystem, it's easier to just move all of them.
[0] Most probsably, users would enable the real filesystem to put on
their device, plus the 'tar' filesystem, to be able to easily inspect
the content on their development machine.

Currently, the filesystems do not depend on building host-tar when it
is needed, even though all of them have to extract the intermediate
tarball.
However, in degenerate (but legally valid) configurations with no
user-selectable package selected, host-tar would not be built, so the
rootfs images would use whatever improper tar the system has.
Add the conditional dependency to host-tar to the rootfs-common
intermediate image. Since this is the internal step that all real rootfs
generators depend on, they now properly depend on host-tar when needed.
In practice, when host-tar is needed, it will always be built before the
rootfs images, because it is a dependency of all packages (except a very
few, like the skeleton), of which host-fakeroot, which is a mandatory
dependency of rootfs-comon anyway. But for consistency sake, let's
explicitly add host-tar as a dependency to rootfs-common too.
Note that rootfs-tar already had that dependency, and we leave it as-is
because it is semantically correct, even if superfluous.

Currently, when a custom user table and a package define the same user,
the settings from the package takes precedence over the ones from the
custom user table.
However, it makes sense to allow the settings from the custom user table
take precedence. For example, it would allow redirecting the user's
home directory to an alternate location (e.g. away from tmp and into a
partition that is persistent).
The support/scripts/mkusers script will only retain settings from the
latest definition it finds.
Thus, by passing the custom user table after the package defined users,
it is possible to override the package provided user definitions.

btrfs will happily use an existing destination file if it
already exists, increasing its size if needed. Hoever, it
will never decrease the size, even if the requested size
is smaller than the existing file.
So, remove any previously existing destination file before
generating the new filesystem.
Note: the original submission by Robert did that, but as
this case was not obvious, the removal was dropped by a
refactoring when the patch was initially applied.

This patch makes it possible to format the rootfs using btrfs. It
introduces the option; BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_BTRFS.
When selected, the user is able to specify the filesystem size, label,
options, and node and sector sizes. The new files are based on
fs/ext2/{Config.in,ext2.mk}

[Thomas:
- fix issues pointed by Yann (duplicated empty line, missing quotes
around default values for string options)
- use -f option so that we don't have to remove the image file before
creating it again
- use the --byte-count option to set the filesystem size, which
avoids the need for doing a "truncate -s"
- remove the possible explanation of a mkfs.btrfs error. Indeed,
mkfs.btrfs automatically extends the size of the image as needed,
so the size passed can never be "too small".
- fix check-package warnings in Config.in file.]
