Sat, 28 Sep 2013 13:24:34 -0500 Rob Landley It's been long enough since "truncate" was introduced we can use that instead of "dd" to make sparse files.
Fri, 27 Sep 2013 12:08:23 -0500 Rob Landley Remove leftover garbage that triggers a bug in gnu/patch 2.7.x (but not in older versions, or toybox, or busybox).
Thu, 26 Sep 2013 09:11:42 -0500 Rob Landley Update news with 1.2.5 release.

Fri, 23 Aug 2013 06:02:55 -0500 Rob Landley The lfs m4 build wasn't including -lrt when probing for posix_spawn, thus trying to recreate what was already there and causing a conflicting definition. Change patch to insert it into libc proper.
Sat, 17 Aug 2013 15:20:20 -0500 Rob Landley Web page tweaks: put "start here" in header, slightly reword menu entries, use style sheet hackery to make blank lines after lists go away, and remove spanish translation about the about page that went 404.

Sun, 07 Jul 2013 22:03:18 -0500 Rob Landley Make the arm board work under qemu 1.5. 1.2.4

Wed, 03 Jul 2013 22:55:06 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade to new kernel, toybox, busybox, and musl releases.
Wed, 03 Jul 2013 22:54:00 -0500 Rob Landley The defconfig busybox build bit-rotted a bit, nail it back in place.
Wed, 03 Jul 2013 22:51:41 -0500 Rob Landley Move image creation logic into sources/functions.sh so we can create cpio and squashfs in the same build.
Wed, 03 Jul 2013 02:00:29 -0500 Rob Landley Add UCLIBC_HAS_GETPT=y (somebody needed it).

Tue, 30 Apr 2013 00:27:52 -0500 Rob Landley Make sha1-for-source.txt only test *.patch files out of sources/patches so stupid ".orig" files don't cause perpetual re-extraction.
Mon, 29 Apr 2013 22:03:14 -0500 Rob Landley Update to linux 3.9.

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 19:11:32 -0500 Rob Landley Half-finished fluffing out of the architectures page.
Tue, 23 Apr 2013 19:10:47 -0500 Rob Landley We use oneinit, so don't need init.
Tue, 23 Apr 2013 19:09:58 -0500 Rob Landley New musl release is out, I should finish the plumbing to actually use that.

Wed, 20 Mar 2013 21:13:57 -0500 Rob Landley The ARM irq mapping is more broken than that: both the SCSI controller (slot 13, pin 1) and the ethernet controller (slot 12, pin 1) are both on irq 59 in qemu. Just hardwire it for now. 1.2.3
Thu, 14 Mar 2013 23:12:25 -0500 Rob Landley The arm guys have now screwed up the ARM versatile board's IRQ routing three consecutive times. I'm impressed.

Sat, 09 Mar 2013 19:54:34 -0600 Rob Landley Work around a uClibc bug where posix-2008 said to define something and they still think it's a gnu extension in 2013.
Tue, 05 Mar 2013 21:30:51 -0600 Rob Landley kernel.org now redirects all http to https, which busybox doesn't support, so switch to ftp url for the kernel.
Mon, 25 Feb 2013 11:45:44 -0600 Rob Landley linux 3.8.
Sun, 17 Feb 2013 22:26:10 -0600 Rob Landley Warn that documentation.html is horribly out of date. (Needs a rewrite; the about and FAQ pages are current, if not as in-depth.)
Sun, 17 Feb 2013 22:25:00 -0600 Rob Landley Lots of small improvements: check for toybox instead of busybox for host-tools $PATH adjustment, better manifest generation (with toybox in list), make package_cache function to find extracted source (so root-image.sh works when packages contains linux-git snapshot), fix more/record-commands.sh path adjustment.
Sun, 17 Feb 2013 22:19:55 -0600 Rob Landley Package upgrades for busybox and toybox, and add musl to the download list.
Sun, 17 Feb 2013 22:17:26 -0600 Rob Landley Large rewrite of about page, probably still needs cleanup.
Thu, 10 Jan 2013 02:49:32 -0600 Rob Landley Only precreate hdb/home image for each target when FORK set.

Sun, 16 Dec 2012 12:43:08 -0600 Rob Landley Toybox 0.4.2. 1.2.2
Sat, 15 Dec 2012 01:47:00 -0600 Rob Landley The linux 3.7 arm config changed the default board off of versatile, so add a config symbol explicitly specifying it.

Mon, 10 Dec 2012 12:14:51 -0600 Rob Landley Making bind mounts read only inexplicably requires a two step process, due to a kernel limitation.
Sun, 09 Dec 2012 13:04:37 -0600 Rob Landley Overzealous cut and paste in news.html: forgot to update the date when I cut the last release. (Oops.)
Sun, 09 Dec 2012 13:00:26 -0600 Rob Landley Toybox is now providing netcat in host-tools, change native-build to look for that. (I'd happily look for generic netcat and ftpd, but neither one has a standardized command line.)
Fri, 30 Nov 2012 14:41:07 -0600 Rob Landley Fix minor bit rot: i686-virtio target still running "qemu" instead of "qemu-system-i386". (Name changed upstream in qemu between releases.)
Sat, 17 Nov 2012 21:39:53 -0600 Rob Landley Uncomment screenshot generation and bump initial delay up to 20 seconds (what powerpc needs on my slow netbook).
Sat, 17 Nov 2012 21:38:50 -0600 Rob Landley Musl needs a specific type of PLT out of gcc for powerpc.
Thu, 15 Nov 2012 20:48:00 -0600 Rob Landley Update website for 1.2.1 announcement.
Thu, 15 Nov 2012 19:32:02 -0600 Rob Landley Infrastructure to recreate screenshots directory.

Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:57:44 -0600 Rob Landley Rename record-commands wrapper directory "record-commands". (Note: this means more/clean.sh takes it out.) 1.2.1
Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:56:04 -0600 Rob Landley Call record-commands.sh from buildall.sh.
Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:55:10 -0600 Rob Landley Pipe stderr through maybe_quiet in for-each-target.sh.

Tue, 13 Nov 2012 07:27:25 -0600 Rob Landley John Spencer reported ext4 filesystem corruption, which seems to have been a problem in the kernel since 3.6.3. Backporting a few patches to try to address it.
Sat, 10 Nov 2012 01:05:14 -0600 Rob Landley Apparently the gdb build needs this...
Sat, 10 Nov 2012 00:53:56 -0600 Rob Landley Another uClibc dependency glitch: with "make -j 1 install" sysnum.h isn't built until after the headers are installed, but with -j 3 it is.
Thu, 01 Nov 2012 23:35:09 -0500 Rob Landley Add ability to check out repositories in packages, IGNORE_REPOS to build from tarballs anyway, a FAQ entry on it, and more/repo.sh to set up/update some of the common ones.

Tue, 09 Oct 2012 00:05:38 -0500 Rob Landley The uClibc build has race conditions when run in parallel, add extra constraint to calm it down.
Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:32:24 -0500 Rob Landley Tweak chroot-splice a bit more: back to hardlinks, plus read only bind mounts.
Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:19:22 -0500 Rob Landley Add CONFIG_UNXZ because strace (in static-tools control image) is now only available as a tar.xz file.
Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:18:45 -0500 Rob Landley The zlib guys delete old archives off the server when the update. If you were wondering why download.sh has a fallback mirror...
Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:03:33 -0500 Rob Landley The 3.6 kernel works with the same set of patches as 3.5. This may be a first.
Fri, 28 Sep 2012 22:17:13 -0500 Rob Landley Respin binutils tarball (don't tar up already patched package cache directory with sha1-for-source.txt file and patches applied; oops).
Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:42:33 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade binutils to the last GPLv2 commit in the .git repository (397a64b3, right before they poisoned gas). This includes the -Bsymbolic-functions thing musl needs (and oddly enough the first drop of armv7l support).
Thu, 06 Sep 2012 05:11:25 -0500 Rob Landley Make busybox build by default, switch override knob to BUSYBOX=1 to use defconfig busybox, always use toybox for oneit, cleanup/fix record-commands logic.
Thu, 06 Sep 2012 05:07:23 -0500 Rob Landley Prettify the kernel baseconfig, same general set of symbols.

Wed, 22 Aug 2012 20:54:33 -0500 Rob Landley Added tag 1.2.0 for changeset 2d264744ac3a
Wed, 22 Aug 2012 19:44:44 -0500 Rob Landley Fix to busybox ftpd so native-build can upload, and switch on yet another uClibc symbol busybox defconfig grew a dependency on. 1.2.0
Sun, 19 Aug 2012 12:46:36 -0500 Rob Landley Make arm versatile work again.
Fri, 17 Aug 2012 18:54:00 -0500 Rob Landley Fix ".config is a directory" error with uClibc++.

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 08:25:24 -0500 Rob Landley The 3.5 kernel and toybox 0.4.0. Some fixes likely to be required.
Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:34:04 -0500 Rob Landley Minor cleanup and remove hardlinking for chroot-splice: it's slower and uses more disk space but doesn't damage external copy if something goes wrong.
Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:32:15 -0500 Rob Landley Move some non-toybox releated busybox config entries up above the "discard this if building toybox" cutoff.
Tue, 05 Jun 2012 20:58:28 -0500 Rob Landley Fix arm for 3.4 kernel.
Sun, 27 May 2012 21:36:22 -0500 Rob Landley Linux 3.4 is out.
Sun, 20 May 2012 15:32:30 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade uClibc to next dot-release, which has a bugfix for the LFS build.
Sat, 12 May 2012 21:35:58 -0500 Rob Landley Oops, forgot to check in patch removed by busybox upgrade.
Thu, 10 May 2012 22:04:19 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade to busybox-1.20.0.
Thu, 10 May 2012 22:03:22 -0500 Rob Landley Switch x86_64 from nptl back to pthreads. This isn't the correct fix but uClibc apparently never tested nptl on x86-64, and one of the assembly files doesn't support PIC.
Sat, 28 Apr 2012 20:41:56 -0500 Rob Landley Tell m68k how to use qemu (even though it doesn't work yet).
Sat, 21 Apr 2012 23:11:28 -0500 Rob Landley Switch armv4l from NPTL back to pthreads instead of trying to patch uClibc into submission just now. arm-oabi is legacy support, need to swap the stack unwinding type to get NPTL to work with it.
Thu, 19 Apr 2012 00:09:11 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade to uClibc 0.9.33.1 (and use NPTL), and busybox 1.19.4.
Mon, 16 Apr 2012 21:31:22 -0500 Rob Landley The Gentoo version of patch is broken, and can't apply patches unless TMPDIR is set, so add it to the whitelist.

Sat, 24 Mar 2012 22:33:32 -0500 Rob Landley Combining KCONFIG_ALLSYMS=<() sometimes works, but not always. Just use a file.

Sat, 24 Mar 2012 19:40:48 -0500 Rob Landley Error paths need the kill and killall commands.
Sat, 24 Mar 2012 18:16:29 -0500 Rob Landley Brown-paper-bag bug: sanitize_environment assembles a whitelist in an environment variable, and didn't include that variable in the whitelist. (So if the variable name was already used, it wouldn't be at the end of the list, and would blank itself, and everything after it...)
