6 menu "Busybox Library Tuning"
8 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_PASSWORD_MINLEN
9 int "Minimum password length"
13 Minimum allowable password length.
15 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MD5_SIZE_VS_SPEED
16 int "MD5: Trade bytes for speed (0:fast, 3:slow)"
20 Trade binary size versus speed for the md5sum algorithm.
21 Approximate values running uClibc and hashing
22 linux-2.4.4.tar.bz2 were:
23 user times (sec) text size (386)
29 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_FAST_TOP
30 bool "Faster /proc scanning code (+100 bytes)"
33 This option makes top (and ps) ~20% faster (or 20% less CPU hungry),
34 but code size is slightly bigger.
36 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_ETC_NETWORKS
37 bool "Support for /etc/networks"
40 Enable support for network names in /etc/networks. This is
41 a rarely used feature which allows you to use names
42 instead of IP/mask pairs in route command.
44 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
45 bool "Command line editing"
48 Enable line editing (mainly for shell command line).
50 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_MAX_LEN
51 int "Maximum length of input"
54 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
56 Line editing code uses on-stack buffers for storage.
57 You may want to decrease this parameter if your target machine
58 benefits from smaller stack usage.
60 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_VI
61 bool "vi-style line editing commands"
63 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
65 Enable vi-style line editing. In shells, this mode can be
66 turned on and off with "set -o vi" and "set +o vi".
68 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_HISTORY
72 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
74 Specify command history size.
76 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_SAVEHISTORY
79 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_ASH && BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
81 Enable history saving in ash shell.
83 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_TAB_COMPLETION
86 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
88 Enable tab completion.
90 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_USERNAME_COMPLETION
91 bool "Username completion"
93 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_TAB_COMPLETION
95 Enable username completion.
97 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_FANCY_PROMPT
98 bool "Fancy shell prompts"
100 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
102 Setting this option allows for prompts to use things like \w and
105 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_ASK_TERMINAL
106 bool "Query cursor position from terminal"
108 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING
110 Allow usage of "ESC [ 6 n" sequence. Terminal answers back with
111 current cursor position. This information is used to make line
112 editing more robust in some cases.
113 If you are not sure whether your terminals respond to this code
114 correctly, or want to save on code size (about 400 bytes),
115 then do not turn this option on.
117 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_NON_POSIX_CP
118 bool "Non-POSIX, but safer, copying to special nodes"
121 With this option, "cp file symlink" will delete symlink
122 and create a regular file. This does not conform to POSIX,
123 but prevents a symlink attack.
124 Similarly, "cp file device" will not send file's data
127 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_VERBOSE_CP_MESSAGE
128 bool "Give more precise messages when copy fails (cp, mv etc)"
131 Error messages with this feature enabled:
132 $ cp file /does_not_exist/file
133 cp: cannot create '/does_not_exist/file': Path does not exist
134 $ cp file /vmlinuz/file
135 cp: cannot stat '/vmlinuz/file': Path has non-directory component
136 If this feature is not enabled, they will be, respectively:
137 cp: cannot create '/does_not_exist/file': No such file or directory
138 cp: cannot stat '/vmlinuz/file': Not a directory
139 This will cost you ~60 bytes.
141 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_COPYBUF_KB
142 int "Copy buffer size, in kilobytes"
146 Size of buffer used by cp, mv, install etc.
147 Buffers which are 4 kb or less will be allocated on stack.
148 Bigger buffers will be allocated with mmap, with fallback to 4 kb
149 stack buffer if mmap fails.
151 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MONOTONIC_SYSCALL
152 bool "Use clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) syscall"
155 Use clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) syscall for measuring
156 time intervals (time, ping, traceroute etc need this).
157 Probably requires Linux 2.6+. If not selected, gettimeofday
158 will be used instead (which gives wrong results if date/time
161 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_IOCTL_HEX2STR_ERROR
162 bool "Use ioctl names rather than hex values in error messages"
165 Use ioctl names rather than hex values in error messages
166 (e.g. VT_DISALLOCATE rather than 0x5608). If disabled this
167 saves about 1400 bytes.
169 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_HWIB
170 bool "Support infiniband HW"
173 Support for printing infiniband addresses in
