The init applet will restart (re-exec) itsself when it
receives a SIGHUP. However, just before it enters its
main loop, it resets SIGHUP to either re-load the inittab
(or ignore it if no inittab is used). Thus preventing
the re-exec option from being triggerable.
This patch adds a signal handler for SIGQUIT for init that
always causes init to re-exec itsself (along with killing
anything else that might be still running).

Hello, all.
Busybox init does not handle removed inittab entry correctly.
# I'm sorry about my poor english, but you can find
# what I would like to say from patch, isn't it?
even if you apply this path,
when yoy try to change a command line option in inittab,
you have to do following steps.
1. remove old line from initrd
2. send HUP signal to init
3. kill old proces which is invoked from init.
4. append new line to inittab
5. send HUP signal to init, again
patch is against current CVS + last patch witch I send it last.

"kill -HUP 1" reloads inittab, and when I append one line to inittab
and send HUP signal two times, It will starts 2 process.
patch against current CVS is attached.

Hi!
I've created a patch to busybox' build system to allow building it in
separate tree in a manner similar to kbuild from kernel version 2.6.
That is, one runs command like
'make O=/build/some/where/for/specific/target/and/options'
and everything is built in this exact directory, provided that it exists.
I understand that applyingc such invasive changes during 'release
candidates' stage of development is at best unwise. So, i'm currently
asking for comments about this patch, starting from whether such thing
is needed at all to whether it coded properly.
'make check' should work now, and one make creates Makefile in build
directory, so one can run 'make' in build directory after that.
One possible caveat is that if we build in some directory other than
source one, the source directory should be 'distclean'ed first.

Updated patch: get rid of syslog_msg entirely. Request from Erik Andersen.

It looks like latest uClibc defines ARCH_HAS_MMU, but a few busybox files
test UCLIBC_HAS_MMU, resulting in vfork() getting called instead of
fork(), etc.
Patch below. Only tested for lash.

the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

I found the problem, I said that no user process use old root when run
my scripts, but
I'm wrong, actually there is a '3' fd open the file
"/old_root/dev/console". By adding
debug message in init/init.c, I found the problem: when init restart(in
exec_signal()),
before open the new terminal device, there is still a file opened(I
don't know which file it is), so the
terminal device(stdin) get fd '1', and the first dup(0)(stdout) return
'2', the second(stderr) return '3'.
I attach a simple patch to solve this problem.

Here's a pretty crude patch to reload /etc/inittab when init receives a
SIGHUP. The mailing list archives weren't entirely clear on whether or
not it should already happen, but didn't appear to be.
The patch:
* Adds a new function, reload_signal() which just calls
parse_inittab() and run_actions(RESPAWN)
* Before entering the while (1) loop set up SIGHUP to call
reload_signal()
* Modify new_init_action to skip the action if the same command
already exists on the same terminal
This last bit means that changing already running entries is a bit
hairy as you can end up with, for example, two shells running on the
same virtual console. However, for solely adding/removing entries this patch
seems to work quite well.

Hello all,
This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system. Almost
all applets now have a help entry. Also, I cleaned up the spacing of
the existing text so that things are consistent. This patch is against
this morning's CVS.

The attached two patches add config documentation to init/Config.in and
fileutils/Config.in.

I've found a problem with job control when the init process is restarted.
If the system boots for the first time, I get job control on a serial terminal -
no problems. However, when I restart init by issuing "init -q", then the shell
no longer has job control.
I traced this a problem in console_init in the file init.c. What was happening
after the restart is that the first compare
if (ioctl(0, TIOCGSERIAL, &sr) == 0) {
...
} else if (ioctl(0, VT_GETSTATE, &vt) == 0) {
...
} else {
... // assume /dev/console
}
returned error and subsequently the code assumes /dev/console as the console,
which does not support job control.
Checking the errno after the first call showed that the system was complaining
about the file descriptor. This is probably because the previous init process
had closed all its file descriptors which the new init process had inherited.

Hmm. Current init.c have check >= 2.2.0 kernel one time too.
Ok. Last patch removed this point and move common init code to new file for

over the years. Well I finally took the time to track this down. It turns out
that inside linux/kernel/sys.c the kernel will call
machine_halt();
do_exit(0);
when halting, or will call
machine_power_off();
do_exit(0);
during a reboot. Unlike sysv init, we call reboot from within the init
process, so if the call to machine_halt() or machine_power_off() returns, the call to do_exit(0) will cause the kernel to panic. Which is a very
bad thing to happen.
So I just added this little patch to fork and call the reboot
syscall from within the forked child process, thereby neatly
avoiding the problem.
But IMHO, both calls to do_exit(0) within linux/kernel/sys.c
are bugs and should be fixed.

modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.
