13 help
14 Tha 'ash' shell adds about 60k in the default configuration and is
15 the most complete and most pedantically correct shell included with
16 busybox. This shell is actually a derivative of the Debian 'dash'
17 shell (by Herbert Xu), which was created by porting the 'ash' shell
18 (written by Kenneth Almquist) from NetBSD.

126 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_CTTYHACK
127 bool "cttyhack"
128 default BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_CTTYHACK
129 help
130 One common problem reported on the mailing list is the "can't
131 access tty; job control turned off" error message, which typically
132 appears when one tries to use a shell with stdin/stdout on
133 /dev/console.
134 This device is special - it cannot be a controlling tty.
135
136 The proper solution is to use the correct device instead of
137 /dev/console.
138
139 cttyhack provides a "quick and dirty" solution to this problem.
140 It analyzes stdin with various ioctls, trying to determine whether
141 it is a /dev/ttyN or /dev/ttySN (virtual terminal or serial line).
142 On Linux it also checks sysfs for a pointer to the active console.
143 If cttyhack is able to find the real console device, it closes
144 stdin/out/err and reopens that device.
145 Then it executes the given program. Opening the device will make
146 that device a controlling tty. This may require cttyhack
147 to be a session leader.
148
149 Example for /etc/inittab (for busybox init):
150
151 ::respawn:/bin/cttyhack /bin/sh
152
153 Starting an interactive shell from boot shell script:
154
155 setsid cttyhack sh
156
157 Giving controlling tty to shell running with PID 1:
158
159 # exec cttyhack sh
160
161 Without cttyhack, you need to know exact tty name,
162 and do something like this:
163
164 # exec setsid sh -c 'exec sh </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1'
165
166 Starting getty on a controlling tty from a shell script:
167
168 # getty 115200 $(cttyhack)

387 help
388 This option causes busybox shells to use busybox applets
389 in preference to executables in the PATH whenever possible. For
390 example, entering the command 'ifconfig' into the shell would cause
391 busybox to use the ifconfig busybox applet. Specifying the fully
392 qualified executable name, such as '/sbin/ifconfig' will still
393 execute the /sbin/ifconfig executable on the filesystem. This option
394 is generally used when creating a statically linked version of busybox
395 for use as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your system.
396
397 This is implemented by re-execing /proc/self/exe (typically)
398 with right parameters. Some selected applets ("NOFORK" applets)
399 can even be executed without creating new process.
400 Instead, busybox will call <applet>_main() internally.
401
402 However, this causes problems in chroot jails without mounted /proc
403 and with ps/top (command name can be shown as 'exe' for applets
404 started this way).
405 # untrue?
406 # Note that this will *also* cause applets to take precedence
407 # over shell builtins of the same name. So turning this on will
408 # eliminate any performance gained by turning on the builtin "echo"
409 # and "test" commands in ash.
410 # untrue?
411 # Note that when using this option, the shell will attempt to directly
412 # run '/bin/busybox'. If you do not have the busybox binary sitting in
413 # that exact location with that exact name, this option will not work at
