9 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BOOTCHARTD
13 bootchartd is commonly used to profile the boot process
14 for the purpose of speeding it up. In this case, it is started
15 by the kernel as the init process. This is configured by adding
16 the init=/sbin/bootchartd option to the kernel command line.
18 It can also be used to monitor the resource usage of a specific
19 application or the running system in general. In this case,
20 bootchartd is started interactively by running bootchartd start
21 and stopped using bootchartd stop.
23 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_BOOTCHARTD_BLOATED_HEADER
24 bool "Compatible, bloated header"
26 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BOOTCHARTD
28 Create extended header file compatible with "big" bootchartd.
29 "Big" bootchartd is a shell script and it dumps some
30 "convenient" info int the header, such as:
31 title = Boot chart for `hostname` (`date`)
32 system.uname = `uname -srvm`
33 system.release = `cat /etc/DISTRO-release`
34 system.cpu = `grep '^model name' /proc/cpuinfo | head -1` ($cpucount)
35 system.kernel.options = `cat /proc/cmdline`
36 This data is not mandatory for bootchart graph generation,
37 and is considered bloat. Nevertheless, this option
38 makes bootchartd applet to dump a subset of it.
40 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_BOOTCHARTD_CONFIG_FILE
41 bool "Support bootchartd.conf"
43 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BOOTCHARTD
45 Enable reading and parsing of $PWD/bootchartd.conf
46 and /etc/bootchartd.conf files.
47 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_HALT
48 bool "poweroff, halt, and reboot"
51 Stop all processes and either halt, reboot, or power off the system.
53 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_CALL_TELINIT
54 bool "Call telinit on shutdown and reboot"
56 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_HALT && !BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
58 Call an external program (normally telinit) to facilitate
59 a switch to a proper runlevel.
61 This option is only available if you selected halt and friends,
62 but did not select init.
64 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_TELINIT_PATH
65 string "Path to telinit executable"
66 default "/sbin/telinit"
67 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_CALL_TELINIT
69 When busybox halt and friends have to call external telinit
70 to facilitate proper shutdown, this path is to be used when
71 locating telinit executable.
72 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
75 select BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_SYSLOG
77 init is the first program run when the system boots.
79 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_USE_INITTAB
80 bool "Support reading an inittab file"
82 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
84 Allow init to read an inittab file when the system boot.
86 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_KILL_REMOVED
87 bool "Support killing processes that have been removed from inittab"
89 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_USE_INITTAB
91 When respawn entries are removed from inittab and a SIGHUP is
92 sent to init, this option will make init kill the processes
93 that have been removed.
95 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_KILL_DELAY
96 int "How long to wait between TERM and KILL (0 - send TERM only)" if FEATURE_KILL_REMOVED
99 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_KILL_REMOVED
101 With nonzero setting, init sends TERM, forks, child waits N
102 seconds, sends KILL and exits. Setting it too high is unwise
103 (child will hang around for too long and could actually kill
106 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_SCTTY
107 bool "Run commands with leading dash with controlling tty"
109 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
111 If this option is enabled, init will try to give a controlling
112 tty to any command which has leading hyphen (often it's "-/bin/sh").
113 More precisely, init will do "ioctl(STDIN_FILENO, TIOCSCTTY, 0)".
114 If device attached to STDIN_FILENO can be a ctty but is not yet
115 a ctty for other session, it will become this process' ctty.
116 This is not the traditional init behavour, but is often what you want
117 in an embedded system where the console is only accessed during
118 development or for maintenance.
119 NB: using cttyhack applet may work better.
121 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_SYSLOG
122 bool "Enable init to write to syslog"
124 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
126 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EXTRA_QUIET
127 bool "Be _extra_ quiet on boot"
129 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
131 Prevent init from logging some messages to the console during boot.
133 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_COREDUMPS
134 bool "Support dumping core for child processes (debugging only)"
136 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
138 If this option is enabled and the file /.init_enable_core
139 exists, then init will call setrlimit() to allow unlimited
140 core file sizes. If this option is disabled, processes
141 will not generate any core files.
143 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INITRD
144 bool "Support running init from within an initrd (not initramfs)"
146 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
148 Legacy support for running init under the old-style initrd. Allows
149 the name linuxrc to act as init, and it doesn't assume init is PID 1.
151 This does not apply to initramfs, which runs /init as PID 1 and
152 requires no special support.
154 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT_TERMINAL_TYPE
155 string "Initial terminal type"
157 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
159 This is the initial value set by init for the TERM environment
160 variable. This variable is used by programs which make use of
161 extended terminal capabilities.
163 Note that on Linux, init attempts to detect serial terminal and
164 sets TERM to "vt102" if one is found.
165 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MESG
169 Mesg controls access to your terminal by others. It is typically
170 used to allow or disallow other users to write to your terminal
172 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_MESG_ENABLE_ONLY_GROUP
173 bool "Enable writing to tty only by group, not by everybody"
175 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MESG
177 Usually, ttys are owned by group "tty", and "write" tool is
178 setgid to this group. This way, "mesg y" only needs to enable
179 "write by owning group" bit in tty mode.
181 If you set this option to N, "mesg y" will enable writing
182 by anybody at all. This is not recommended.
