systemd is increasingly expecting things to live in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin
or /usr/lib nad not in /bin, /sbin or /lib. It has inherited those
expectations from a Fedora change:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove
Note however, that systemd does support /usr being on a separate
filesystem; it just expects an initramfs to mount it before the final
switchroot over to the actual rootfs.
But the traditional use-case for Buildroot is not to boot with an
initramfs; although that is totally feasible, that's probably not what
is commonly done in the vast majority of cases.
However, a lot of packages still install stuff directly into /bin,
/sbin or /lib, which systemd may need early-on in the boot process,
even before it may have a chance to mount /usr. Even though we can
tell systemd, at configure-time, where it should expect programs to
be at runtime, it does not make sense to go head-first against an
upstream wa^Hill.
Add an option so that /bin, /sbin and /lib be symlinks to /usr/bin
and /usr/sbin. That option is forcibly enabled when the init system
is systemd.
Note: we need not handle /lib32 or /lib64, as they already are symlinks
to /lib, which means they will automatically be redirected to /usr/lib,
as /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64 already are.
Furthermore, this means we're no longer supporting a split-usr setup, so
the corresponding configure options have been removed as well for
systemd and, when using a merged /usr, for eudev as well.
In Buildroot, we decided (with this patch) not to support a split-usr
when systemd is used as an init system. This is a design decision, not
a systemd issue. Thus the select is with BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD rather than
with BR2_PACKAGE_SYSTEMD.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
