BUSYBOX(1) busybox BUSYBOX(1)
NAME
BusyBox - The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux
SYNTAX
BusyBox <function> [arguments...] # or
<function> [arguments...] # if symlinked
DESCRIPTION
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small
executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of the utilities you usually find
in GNU coreutils, util-linux, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options
than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the
expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind. It is also
extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or features) at compile
time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded systems. To create a working system,
just add /dev, /etc, and a Linux kernel. BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX
environment for any small or embedded system.
BusyBox is extremely configurable. This allows you to include only the components you
need, thereby reducing binary size. Run 'make config' or 'make menuconfig' to select the
functionality that you wish to enable. Then run 'make' to compile BusyBox using your
configuration.
After the compile has finished, you should use 'make install' to install BusyBox. This
will install the 'bin/busybox' binary, in the target directory specified by CONFIG_PREFIX.
CONFIG_PREFIX can be set when configuring BusyBox, or you can specify an alternative
location at install time (i.e., with a command line like 'make CONFIG_PREFIX=/tmp/foo
install'). If you enabled any applet installation scheme (either as symlinks or
hardlinks), these will also be installed in the location pointed to by CONFIG_PREFIX.
USAGE
BusyBox is a multi-call binary. A multi-call binary is an executable program that
performs the same job as more than one utility program. That means there is just a single
BusyBox binary, but that single binary acts like a large number of utilities. This allows
BusyBox to be smaller since all the built-in utility programs (we call them applets) can
share code for many common operations.
You can also invoke BusyBox by issuing a command as an argument on the command line. For
example, entering
/bin/busybox ls
will also cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls'.
Of course, adding '/bin/busybox' into every command would be painful. So most people will
invoke BusyBox using links to the BusyBox binary.
For example, entering
ln -s /bin/busybox ls
./ls
will cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls' (if the 'ls' command has been compiled into BusyBox).
Generally speaking, you should never need to make all these links yourself, as the BusyBox
build system will do this for you when you run the 'make install' command.
If you invoke BusyBox with no arguments, it will provide you with a list of the applets
that have been compiled into your BusyBox binary.
COMMON OPTIONS
Most BusyBox commands support the --help argument to provide a terse runtime description
of their behavior. If the CONFIG_FEATURE_VERBOSE_USAGE option has been enabled, more
detailed usage information will also be available.

To create a bond device, simply follow these three steps :
- ensure that the required drivers are properly loaded :
# modprobe bonding ; modprobe <3c59x|eepro100|pcnet32|tulip|...>
- assign an IP address to the bond device :
# ifconfig bond0 <addr> netmask <mask> broadcast <bcast>
- attach all the interfaces you need to the bond device :
# ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1 eth2
If bond0 didn't have a MAC address, it will take eth0's. Then, all
interfaces attached AFTER this assignment will get the same MAC addr.
To detach a dead interface without setting the bond device down :
# ifenslave -d bond0 eth1
To set the bond device down and automatically release all the slaves :
# ifconfig bond0 down
To change active slave :
# ifenslave -c bond0 eth0

init
init
Init is the parent of all processes
This version of init is designed to be run only by the kernel.
BusyBox init doesn't support multiple runlevels. The runlevels field of the
/etc/inittab file is completely ignored by BusyBox init. If you want runlevels, use
sysvinit.
BusyBox init works just fine without an inittab. If no inittab is found, it has the
following default behavior:
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
::askfirst:/bin/sh
::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
::shutdown:/sbin/swapoff -a
::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r
::restart:/sbin/init
if it detects that /dev/console is _not_ a serial console, it will also run:
tty2::askfirst:/bin/sh
tty3::askfirst:/bin/sh
tty4::askfirst:/bin/sh
If you choose to use an /etc/inittab file, the inittab entry format is as follows:
<id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
<id>:
WARNING: This field has a non-traditional meaning for BusyBox init!
The id field is used by BusyBox init to specify the controlling tty for
the specified process to run on. The contents of this field are
appended to "/dev/" and used as-is. There is no need for this field to
be unique, although if it isn't you may have strange results. If this
field is left blank, the controlling tty is set to the console. Also
note that if BusyBox detects that a serial console is in use, then only
entries whose controlling tty is either the serial console or /dev/null
will be run. BusyBox init does nothing with utmp. We don't need no
stinkin' utmp.
<runlevels>:
The runlevels field is completely ignored.
<action>:
Valid actions include: sysinit, respawn, askfirst, wait,
once, restart, ctrlaltdel, and shutdown.
The available actions can be classified into two groups: actions
that are run only once, and actions that are re-run when the specified
process exits.
Run only-once actions:
'sysinit' is the first item run on boot. init waits until all
sysinit actions are completed before continuing. Following the
completion of all sysinit actions, all 'wait' actions are run.
'wait' actions, like 'sysinit' actions, cause init to wait until
the specified task completes. 'once' actions are asynchronous,
therefore, init does not wait for them to complete. 'restart' is
the action taken to restart the init process. By default this should
simply run /sbin/init, but can be a script which runs pivot_root or it
can do all sorts of other interesting things. The 'ctrlaltdel' init
actions are run when the system detects that someone on the system
console has pressed the CTRL-ALT-DEL key combination. Typically one
wants to run 'reboot' at this point to cause the system to reboot.
Finally the 'shutdown' action specifies the actions to taken when
init is told to reboot. Unmounting filesystems and disabling swap
is a very good here.
Run repeatedly actions:
'respawn' actions are run after the 'once' actions. When a process
started with a 'respawn' action exits, init automatically restarts
it. Unlike sysvinit, BusyBox init does not stop processes from
respawning out of control. The 'askfirst' actions acts just like
respawn, except that before running the specified process it
displays the line "Please press Enter to activate this console."
and then waits for the user to press enter before starting the
specified process.
Unrecognized actions (like initdefault) will cause init to emit an
error message, and then go along with its business. All actions are
run in the order they appear in /etc/inittab.
<process>:
Specifies the process to be executed and its command line.
Example /etc/inittab file:
# This is run first except when booting in single-user mode
#
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
# /bin/sh invocations on selected ttys
#
# Start an "askfirst" shell on the console (whatever that may be)
::askfirst:-/bin/sh
# Start an "askfirst" shell on /dev/tty2-4
tty2::askfirst:-/bin/sh
tty3::askfirst:-/bin/sh
tty4::askfirst:-/bin/sh
# /sbin/getty invocations for selected ttys
#
tty4::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
tty5::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
# Example of how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
#
#::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100
#::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100
#
# Example how to put a getty on a modem line
#::respawn:/sbin/getty 57600 ttyS2
# Stuff to do when restarting the init process
::restart:/sbin/init
# Stuff to do before rebooting
::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r
::shutdown:/sbin/swapoff -a

Where name is the file name, type can be one of:
f A regular file
d Directory
c Character special device file
b Block special device file
p Fifo (named pipe)
uid is the user id for the target file, gid is the group id for the
target file. The rest of the entries (major, minor, etc) apply to
to device special files. A '-' may be used for blank entries.

^D
mdev
mdev [-s]
-s Scan /sys and populate /dev during system boot
Called with no options (via hotplug) it uses environment variables to determine which
device to add/remove.
The mdev config file contains lines that look like:
hd[a-z][0-9]* 0:3 660
That's device name (with regex match), uid:gid, and permissions.
Optionally, that can be followed (on the same line) by a special character and a
command line to run after creating/before deleting the corresponding device(s). The
environment variable $MDEV indicates the active device node (which is useful if it's a
regex match). For example:
hdc root:cdrom 660 *ln -s $MDEV cdrom
The special characters are @ (run after creating), $ (run before deleting), and * (run
both after creating and before deleting). The commands run in the /dev directory, and
use system() which calls /bin/sh.
Config file parsing stops on the first matching line. If no config entry is matched,
devices are created with default 0:0 660. (Make the last line match .* to override
this.)

modprobe
modprobe [-knqrsv] MODULE [symbol=value...]
Options:
-k Make module autoclean-able
-n Dry run
-q Quiet
-r Remove module (stacks) or do autoclean
-s Report via syslog instead of stderr
-v Verbose
modprobe can (un)load a stack of modules, passing each module options (when loading).
modprobe uses a configuration file to determine what option(s) to pass each module it
loads.
The configuration file is searched (in order) amongst:
/etc/modprobe.conf (2.6 only)
/etc/modules.conf
/etc/conf.modules (deprecated)
They all have the same syntax (see below). If none is present, it is _not_ an error;
each loaded module is then expected to load without options. Once a file is found, the
others are tested for.
/etc/modules.conf entry format:
alias <alias_name> <mod_name>
Makes it possible to modprobe alias_name, when there is no such module.
It makes sense if your mod_name is long, or you want a more representative
name for that module (eg. 'scsi' in place of 'aha7xxx').
This makes it also possible to use a different set of options (below) for
the module and the alias.
A module can be aliased more than once.
options <mod_name|alias_name> <symbol=value...>
When loading module mod_name (or the module aliased by alias_name), pass
the "symbol=value" pairs as option to that module.
Sample /etc/modules.conf file:
options tulip irq=3
alias tulip tulip2
options tulip2 irq=4 io=0x308
Other functionality offered by 'classic' modprobe is not available in this
implementation.
If module options are present both in the config file, and on the command line, then
the options from the command line will be passed to the module _after_ the options
from the config file. That way, you can have defaults in the config file, and override
them for a specific usage from the command line.
Example:
(with the above /etc/modules.conf):
$ modprobe tulip
will load the module 'tulip' with default option 'irq=3'
$ modprobe tulip irq=5
will load the module 'tulip' with option 'irq=5', thus overriding the default
$ modprobe tulip2
will load the module 'tulip' with default options 'irq=4 io=0x308',
which are the default for alias 'tulip2'
$ modprobe tulip2 irq=8
will load the module 'tulip' with default options 'irq=4 io=0x308 irq=8',
which are the default for alias 'tulip2' overridden by the option 'irq=8'
from the command line
$ modprobe tulip2 irq=2 io=0x210
will load the module 'tulip' with default options 'irq=4 io=0x308 irq=4 io=0x210',
which are the default for alias 'tulip2' overridden by the options 'irq=2 io=0x210'
from the command line

LIBC NSS
GNU Libc (glibc) uses the Name Service Switch (NSS) to configure the behavior of the C
library for the local environment, and to configure how it reads system data, such as
passwords and group information. This is implemented using an /etc/nsswitch.conf
configuration file, and using one or more of the /lib/libnss_* libraries. BusyBox tries
to avoid using any libc calls that make use of NSS. Some applets however, such as login
and su, will use libc functions that require NSS.
If you enable CONFIG_USE_BB_PWD_GRP, BusyBox will use internal functions to directly
access the /etc/passwd, /etc/group, and /etc/shadow files without using NSS. This may
allow you to run your system without the need for installing any of the NSS configuration
files and libraries.
When used with glibc, the BusyBox 'networking' applets will similarly require that you
install at least some of the glibc NSS stuff (in particular, /etc/nsswitch.conf,
/lib/libnss_dns*, /lib/libnss_files*, and /lib/libresolv*).
Shameless Plug: As an alternative, one could use a C library such as uClibc. In addition
to making your system significantly smaller, uClibc does not require the use of any NSS
support files or libraries.
