Patch from Paul Mundt:

    The current SC_x references automatically assume that everyone uses ttyS/tts
    as their naming scheme for their serial ports. This isn't the case for quite
    a few architectures, including sh, sh64, h8, arm, etc.

Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> writes:

	Here's a bunch of fixes for the watchdog app in busybox. This does a
	couple of things:

		- configurable timer duration (userspace timer duration is
		  usually configurable within the device drivers themselves).
		- run as a daemon
		- shutdown the device properly on SIGINT or SIGHUP
		- clear the counter immediately instead of sleeping first

	as well as updating the usage information. This has also been switched
	over to getopt to deal with the optional timer duration specifier.

	The changes themselves are harmless and isolated, and I've veried that
	this works on sh and x86 without any problems.

Log:
Patch from  Andrew Flegg:

    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.

James Petterson writes:

I've found a possible bug in libbb/interface.c, in function
if_readlist_proc(). This function calls get_name(), and passes
as an argument 'name', a buffer of 16 bytes (IFNAMSIZ).  The
function get_name(), however, may use more than 16 bytes,
when it is searching for aliases. Even if you don't have an
alias interface, you can run into trouble if the interface
has received more than 99999999 bytes, in which case the
space between the interface name and the rx stats
disappears, as in the /proc/net/dev example below:
 wan0.200:264573315  462080    ...
In this case get_name() correctly identifies the interface name
as "wan0.200", but to do that it uses 18 bytes of the 'name'
buffer, which could lead to an unpredictable error.

A simple solution would be to increase the size of the buffer:

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.

this patch fixes run_parts when it's called by ifupdown. 1) argv has to be a
NULL terminated char* array, not just a string. 2) run_parts now explicitly
sets the environment. this environment is populated from the
/etc/network/interfaces config file and is needed by the scripts in
/etc/network/if-pre-up.d/. when run-parts is called from the command line the
environment is taken from the current process.

You can simplify this if use:

+       buf[1] = NULL;

The recent changes in ifupdown where all calls to 'ip link set' and
'ip addr set' are swapped give some problems with v4tunnels.
For plain ipv4 and ipv6 interfaces it works correct, other methods
not tried. The patch below change the behaviour back for v4tunnels
only.

Without the patch the following errors are shown:
RTNETLINK answers: Network is down
RTNETLINK answers: No route to host
and the tunnel is not fully brought up

With this patch all works as expected.

When using "losetup" the device is always setup as Read-Only.

(I have only tested with the -o flag, but looking at the code the
 problem seems general)

The problem is the "opt" variable in "losetup.c" that is reused in
the "set_loop()" call. Clear it before the call and everything is OK;

  opt = 0;         /* <-------- added line */
  if (delete)
    return del_loop (argv[optind]) ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE;
  else
    return set_loop (argv[optind], argv[optind + 1], offset, &opt)
      ? EXIT_FAILURE : EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
