In upstream busbyox, the code to create devices has been simplified: the code for a single and for multiple devices is no longer duplicated. Since we are going to change the device creation code next, it's convenient to have only one copy to modify. There are two behavioural changes with this, but they were introduced silently together with other commits in upstream busybox. - When mknod() fails, the chmod was still done. This is pointless so it is no longer done now. - There was a check for mode != -1; however, a mode of -1 would not have worked anyway because all bits would be set for mknod(), which would fail. So this check is redundant. Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) <arnout@mind.be> Tested-by: Fabio Estevam <festevam@gmail.com> Acked-by: "Yann E.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
