Romain Naour 360a7cd738 package/systemd: bump linux-headers dependency to 4.14
The recent update to systemd v254 requires a toolchain w/ linux headers
>= 4.14 to provide LOOP_SET_BLOCK_SIZE [1] (added in systemd v253 [2]).

Note:
Buildroot already warn the user if a toolchain w/ linux headers < 4.15
is used while enabling systemd as init system [3]. It was matter of
time before problem occurs.

Norbert Lange 9a095643b4 system: Warn if systemd is used with kernel < 4.15
To quote the README:

> Kernel versions below 4.15 have significant gaps in functionality and
> are not recommended for use with this version of systemd. Taint flag
> 'old-kernel' will be set. Systemd will most likely still function, but
> upstream support and testing are limited.

Norbert Lange a2c823d1f5 package/systemd: bump to version 252.4
Following files changed *license* from CC0-1.0 to MIT-0:

-   src/systemctl/systemd-sysv-install.SKELETON
-   config files
-   examples under /network

The file LICENSES/MIT-0.txt has been added for this reason,
hashes added, corrected for LICENSES/README.md.

Kernel version 3.15 is now the bare minimum, but only
version 4.15 and higher are fully supported and tested:

-   bump kernel header dependencies
-   correct kconfig description
-   improvements to make the kconfig description better reflect
    the information from the README

Set new options to their default, remove -Defi-cc option.

Set -Ddbus=false to ensure dbus dependency is runtime only.

Set -Ddbus-interfaces-dir=no as interface XML file generation is
not supported when cross compiling.

Set -Ddefault-user-shell=/bin/sh to the always available shell.

Yann E. MORIN 3f79611b30 system: add options for /var factory and tmpfiles pre-seed
Currently, when one does not enable remounting the rootfs read-write,
i.e. keep it read-only, for example because the filesystem is actually
read-only by design, like squashfs, then two things happen:

  - we create a factory from the content of /var at build time, register
    tmpfiles entries for it, and mount a tmpfs on /var at runtime, so
    that systemd-tmpfiles does populate /var from the factory; this is
    only done when the rootfs is not remounted r/w;

  - we trigger systemd-tmpfiles at build time, which uses the tmpfiles
    db, of which our /var entries, to pre-populate the filesystem; this
    is always done, whether the rootfs is remounted r/w or not.

Note that Buildroot mounts a tmpfs on /var, and leaves to the integrator
to care for providing an actual filesystem, as there are too many
variants and is very specific to each use-case.

These two mechanisms are conflicting, semantically, but also
technically: the files from the factory will be duplicated, but that
may help in some situations when the actual /var filesystem is not
mountable.

In some cases, it might be preferable to have none, either, or both
mechanisms enabled; it highly depends on the ultimate integration scheme
chosen for a device.

For example, some people will be very happy with a /var that is actually
on a tmpfs and that it gets reseeded form scratch at every boot, while
others may want to ensure that their system continue to work even when
they can't mount something that makes /var writable.

YMMV, as they used to say back in the day...

So, we introduce two new options, in the system sub-menu, each to drive
each mechanism. We default those options to y, to keep the previous
behaviour by default, except the var factory is only available when the
rootfs is not remounted r/w, as it were so far.

We still hint in the help text that there might be some conflict between
the two mechanisms, but since it has been that way for some time, it
does not look too broken for most people.

Since that introduces more options related to systemd being chosen as an
init system, we gather those two options and the existing one inside a
if-endif block, rather than adding more 'depends on' on each options.

Brandon Maier a0b041d6c1 system: support br2-external init systems
Some externals may wish to provide custom init systems for tightly
integrated boot. This has been supported through the BR2_INIT_NONE,
however a downside to the BR2_INIT_NONE is it forces the custom init
system to use either skeleton-custom and roll a custom skeleton for
each target, or skeleton-init-none which isn't a complete skeleton.

Allowing br2-external to define custom BR2_INIT_* means they can now
safely 'select' the BR2_PACKAGE_SKELETON_INIT_*, and re-use any of the
skeletons in Buildroot, or one from a br2-external tree.

Yann E. MORIN b57632683b package/systemd: make sure init choice and package have same dependencies
Currently, the dependencies for the init system choice, and the
dependencies for the package, are slightly different, and not in the
same order, the latter making it difficult to assess consistency between
the two.

Fix all that, by cross-duplicating dependencies from the init choice and
the package, and order the dependencies according to the manual (arch
first, toolchain, then the others).

Note that some dependencies are redundant, but kept nonetheless for
correctness:

  - BR2_USE_MMU is implied by BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC, but systemd does
    use fork();

  - !BR2_STATIC_LIBS is also implied by BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC, but it
    is also inherited from kmod which we select;

  - BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS is also implied by BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC,
    but systemd does use pthread_*() functions.

Romain Naour 2196ee25ff package/systemd: add gcc >= 5.x dependency
As reported on the mailing list, there is a build issue with systemd 245
when using gcc < 5.0:

http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2020-April/278931.html

Build issue:
../src/shared/gpt.c:7:9: error: initializer element is not constant
         { GPT_ROOT_X86,              "root-x86"              },

When testing with a toolchain using gcc 5.4.0 and the build is ok.
http://toolchains.bootlin.com/downloads/releases/toolchains/armv5-eabi--glibc--stable-2017.05-toolchains-1-1.tar.bz2

While searching for "error: initializer element is not constant" message, we
can notice a note about gcc 5 change about "Initializing statics with compound
literals":

https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/porting_to.html

Add a dependency on gcc 5 to avoid using to old compiler.

There is the same issue with host-systemd with host gcc 4.9
(tested with Debian Jessie). So, add a dependency on host gcc >= 5.x.

Michał Łyszczek 4019559de0 package/openrc: add support for spawning getty
We install a template getty service, and we 'instantiate' it in the
default runlevel, using the configured tty.

Ideally, packages that provide a getty program would be responsible
for installing the corresponding service file. However, to keep
consistency with the existing init systems (busybox, systemd, and
sysv), so we do provide it from the openrc package itself.

OpenRC only acts on the files in a runlevel sub-directory, but the
documentation [0] actually suggests that the instance symlink be done
in init.d, and then again symlinked into the actual runlevel
sub-directory. So, we abide by the rules.

Also, to be noted, the getty service file is installed without ensuring
that a getty command is available. This again is not unlike other init
systems, sysvinit and busybox, which behave the same.

Matt Weber bf3626002f system cfg: remove mkpasswd MD5 format option
As SHA256 is now default, removing weak MD5 option.  C libraries now

One issue this would prevent, is a host tool issue with a FIPS enabled
system where weak ciphers/methods are disabled. It seems the crypt(3)
call is impacted by /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled (per crypt(3) man
page). It results in mkpasswd returning "(EPERM) crypt failed."
Rather then create a Buildroot host dependency check, this patch
removes the potential corner case from being selected.

Yann E. MORIN 0d61846b5f package/systemd: needs glibc
Since version v239, systemd-nspawn unconditioanlly uses prlimit(2),
which is not implemented in uClibc-ng. systemd-nspawn can not be

This makes systemd glibc-only again.

After a bit of discussion with upstream (om IRC), it looks very
improbable that they accept a patch making systemd-nspawn optional.
They would probably consider a patch that provides that syscall wrapper
if it is missing, though, but that's less trivial...

In commit 879fa7f82a, the
BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD option was changed to allow selecting with a uClibc

was already bogus, was not updated to take into account the numerous

Due to this, even if you have uClibc enabled, the BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD
option may not be visible, and the Config.in comment may also not be
visible, leaving the user in the dark.

This commit fixes the dependencies of the Config.in comment so that

Yann E. MORIN 26085bbbd5 system: make systemd work on a read-only rootfs
When the rootfs is readonly, systemd will expect /var to be writable.
Because we do not really have a R/W filesystem to mount on /var, we make
it a tmpfs [*], and use the systemd-tmpfiles feature to populate it with
"factory" defaults.

We obtain those factory defaults by redirecting /var to that location at
build time, using a symlink /var -> /usr/share/factory which is the
location in which systemd-tmpfiles will look for when instructed to
"recursively copy" a directory.

With a line like:

    C /var/something - - - -

it will look for /usr/share/factory/something and copy it (recursively
if it is a directory) to /var/something, but only if it does not already
exist there.

We also mark this copy with the exclamation mark, as it is only safe to
copy on boot, not when changing targets.

To be noted: the real format for such lines are:

    C /var/something - - - - /from/where/to/copy/something

But if the source is not given, then it is implicitly taken from
/usr/share/factory (which in our case is as-good a location as whatever
else, so we use it, and thus we need not specify the source of the
copy).

Note that we treat symlinks a little bit specially, by creating symlinks
to the factory defaults rather than copying them.

Finally, /var at build time is a symlink, but at runtime, it must be a
directory (so we can mount the tmpfs over there). We can't change that
as a target-finalize hook, because:

  - some packages may want to set ownership and/or access rights on
    files or directories in /var, and that only happens while assembling
    the filesystem images; changing /var from a symlink to a (then
    empty) directory would break this;

  - /var would be a directory on sub-sequent builds (until the next
    "make clean").

Instead, we use the newly-introduce pre- and post-rootfs command hooks,
to turn /var into a directory before assembling the image, and back to a
symlink after assembling the image.

[*] People who want the factory-defaults only on first boot will have
    to tweak the fstab to mount something else than a tmpfs on /var.

Yann E. MORIN c0fd0ac655 package/skeleton: introduce sysv, systemd and none specific skeletons
Currently, we use the same skeleton for sysv-like init systems and
systemd, even though systemd has some peculiarities that makes our
default skeleton unfit.

So, we'll need to provide different skeletons (really, only part of
it) for sysv-like and systemd. In addition, in order to support the
"no init system" (BR2_INIT_NONE) use case, we introduce a "none"
skeleton.

Introduce three new skeleton packages, aptly named skeleton-sysv,
skeleton-systemd and skeleton-none. All three are providers of the
skeleton virtual package, in lieu of the skeleton-common package,
which is now a simple dependency of all three new skeletons.

Those packages are empty for now. In followup changes:
  - sysv-specific stuff will be moved out of skeleton-common and into
    skeleton-sysv;
  - systemd-specific stuff will be added to skeleton-systemd.

Yann E. MORIN 120307520f package/skeleton: split out into skeleton-common
Move all the handling of the default skeleton into a new package,
skeleton-common.

We don't name it skeleton-default, because it will be further split
later, into a skeleton for sysv and another for systemd, with some parts
still common between the two. So just name it skeleton-common right now;
this will save us a rename later.

While we're at it, also assign to SKELETON_COMMON_TARGET_FINALIZE_HOOKS
instead of directly to the global FINALIZE_HOOKS. Therefore, we don't
need to do all of that in a condition BR2_PACKAGE_SKELETON_COMMON==y.

Note: it would be technically sound to move the skeleton files together
within a sub-directory of the skeleton-common package. However, we refer
the user to those files, from various locations (manual, packages). It
will indeed be easier for the user to find those files in
system/skeleton/ rather than in package/skeleton-common/skeleton/

Yann E. MORIN 0c750a027b package/skeleton: split out into skeleton-custom
For the custom skeleton, we practicaly do nothing, except ensure it
contains the basic, required directories, and that those are properly
setup wrt. merged /usr.

Furthermore, our current skeleton is not fit for systemd, and we'll
have to split things out into various skeletons.

So, off-load the custom skeleton into its own package.

Thus, the existing skeleton package is now limited to:

  - when using our default skeleton, install and tweak it properly;

  - when using a custom skeleton, do nothing except for depending on
    the skeleton-custom package.

Yann E. MORIN 10ac06496c package/skeleton: select it rather than default to y
Our current skeleton is tailored to sysv-like init systems; it is not
fit for systemd-based systems. So, in upcoming changes, we'll add
another skeleton for systemd.

This means we can no longer have the current skeleton default to 'y', or
it would be enabled also for systemd, which would be incorrect.

So, we remove the default to 'y' but have it selected by the default
skeleton choice.

However, we do not yet have a way to directly build (really, install)
the custom skeleton, it is built (really, installed) as a dependency of
the default skeleton. So we must also forcibly select the default
skeleton when using a custom one.

Until we have the means to do only one or the other; i.e. when we have a
virtual skeleton.

Yann E. MORIN 7c1692df6f package/skeleton: drop dependency on host-mkpasswd
Setting the root pasword is done in a target-finalize hook, so we do not
need to enforce a dependency from the skeleton onto host-mkpasswd.

Dropping that dependency will simplify making skeleton a virtual
package (in up-coming changes).

Instead, it is now selected as any other package. As such, it is
guaranteed to be built before target-finalize.

This however introduces a slight change in behaviour: previously,
host-mkpasswd would only be built if we needed to hash the root password
from its plain-text value. Now, host-mkpasswd is always built as soon as
the root password is non-empty, even if already pre-hashed.

Since host-mkpasswd is a really tiny weeny package bundled in Buildroot,
with only two C files, built as a single unit with a single gcc call,
the overhead is really minimal. Compared to the simplifications this
will allow in the skeleton packages (plural: common, sysv, systemd,
custom) to come, this overhead is acceptable.

Yet another simplification, even if small, to ease providing multiple
skeletons.

Thomas Petazzoni dc057d2865 system: introduce BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS
Until now, the option BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE was more-or-less controlling
whether NLS support was enabled in packages. More precisely, if
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE=y, we were not doing anything (so some packages
could have NLS support enabled, some not). And only when
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE was disabled we were explicitly passing
--disable-nls to packages.

This doesn't make much sense, and there is no reason to tie NLS
support to locale support. You may want locale support, but not
necessarily NLS support. Therefore, this commit introduces
BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS, which allows to enable/disable NLS support
globally. When this option is enabled, we pass --enable-nls to
packages, otherwise we pass --disable-nls.

In addition, when this option is enabled and the C library doesn't
provide a full-blown implementation of gettext, we select the gettext
package, which will provide the full blown implementation.

It is worth mentioning that this commit has a visible impact for users:

 - Prior to this commit, as soon as BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE=y, packages
   *could* provide NLS support. It was up to each package to decide
   whether they wanted to provide NLS support or not (we were not
   passing --enable-nls nor --disable-nls).

 - After this commit, it's BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS that controls whether
   NLS is enabled or disabled, and this option is disabled by default.

Bottom line: with the default of BR2_SYSTEM_ENABLE_NLS disabled, some
packages may lose NLS support that they used to provide. But we
believe it's a reasonable default behavior for Buildroot, where
generally NLS support is not necessary.

Yann E. MORIN e7e526e910 system: require a timezone to be set
Even though no timezone implicitly means UTC, systemd is not all that
happy when it does not have a timezone set. This is all fine on a RW
filesystem because systemd will create a symlink on its own (to
Etc/UTC), but not so much on a RO filesystem, causing all kind of
issues at boot time (up to the point that the system is unusable).

We fix that by requiring that the timezone is actually set. The check is
done by verifying that the timezone file is an actual file; if not set,
the test would find a directory and would thus fail.

Update the help entry accordingly.

Also fix indentation in tzdata.

Thomas Petazzoni fc91501e6b system: do not overwrite /bin/sh Busybox symlink
The BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH hidden option defines to what binary the /bin/sh
symlinks should point to. If busybox is chosen, then /bin/sh is created
to point to /bin/busybox.

This works fine with the default installation mode of Busybox, but it
fails with the upcoming "individual binaries" mode, in which each applet
is installed as its own binary, and /bin/busybox doesn't exist: we get
/bin/sh as a broken symlink to /bin/busybox.

Since Busybox already installs its own /bin/sh symlink, properly
pointing to /bin/ash or /bin/hush depending on the selected shell, it
doesn't make sense for the BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH logic to override
this. Just let Busybox install its own /bin/sh by making
BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH empty when Busybox shell is selected as /bin/sh.
