8 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BOOTCHARTD
9 bool "bootchartd"
10 default n
11 help
12 bootchartd is commonly used to profile the boot process
13 for the purpose of speeding it up. In this case, it is started
14 by the kernel as the init process. This is configured by adding
15 the init=/sbin/bootchartd option to the kernel command line.
16
17 It can also be used to monitor the resource usage of a specific
18 application or the running system in general. In this case,
19 bootchartd is started interactively by running bootchartd start
20 and stopped using bootchartd stop.

22 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_BOOTCHARTD_BLOATED_HEADER
23 bool "Compatible, bloated header"
24 default n
25 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_BOOTCHARTD
26 help
27 Create extended header file compatible with "big" bootchartd.
28 "Big" bootchartd is a shell script and it dumps some
29 "convenient" info int the header, such as:
30 title = Boot chart for `hostname` (`date`)
31 system.uname = `uname -srvm`
32 system.release = `cat /etc/DISTRO-release`
33 system.cpu = `grep '^model name' /proc/cpuinfo | head -1` ($cpucount)
34 system.kernel.options = `cat /proc/cmdline`
35 This data is not mandatory for bootchart graph generation,
36 and is considered bloat. Nevertheless, this option
37 makes bootchartd applet to dump a subset of it.

56 help
57 Call an external program (normally telinit) to facilitate
58 a switch to a proper runlevel.

60 This option is only available if you selected halt and friends,
61 but did not select init.

68 When busybox halt and friends have to call external telinit
69 to facilitate proper shutdown, this path is to be used when
70 locating telinit executable.

90 When respawn entries are removed from inittab and a SIGHUP is
91 sent to init, this option will make init kill the processes
92 that have been removed.

96 range 0 1024
97 default 0
98 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_KILL_REMOVED
99 help
100 With nonzero setting, init sends TERM, forks, child waits N
101 seconds, sends KILL and exits. Setting it too high is unwise
102 (child will hang around for too long and could actually kill
103 the wrong process!)

105 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_SCTTY
106 bool "Run commands with leading dash with controlling tty"
107 default n
108 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
109 help
110 If this option is enabled, init will try to give a controlling
111 tty to any command which has leading hyphen (often it's "-/bin/sh").
112 More precisely, init will do "ioctl(STDIN_FILENO, TIOCSCTTY, 0)".
113 If device attached to STDIN_FILENO can be a ctty but is not yet
114 a ctty for other session, it will become this process' ctty.
115 This is not the traditional init behavour, but is often what you want
116 in an embedded system where the console is only accessed during
117 development or for maintenance.
118 NB: using cttyhack applet may work better.

133 bool "Support dumping core for child processes (debugging only)"
134 default n
135 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
136 help
137 If this option is enabled and the file /.init_enable_core
138 exists, then init will call setrlimit() to allow unlimited
139 core file sizes. If this option is disabled, processes
140 will not generate any core files.

143 bool "Support running init from within an initrd (not initramfs)"
144 default n
145 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
146 help
147 Legacy support for running init under the old-style initrd. Allows
148 the name linuxrc to act as init, and it doesn't assume init is PID 1.
149
150 This does not apply to initramfs, which runs /init as PID 1 and
151 requires no special support.

158 This is the initial value set by init for the TERM environment
159 variable. This variable is used by programs which make use of
160 extended terminal capabilities.
161
162 Note that on Linux, init attempts to detect serial terminal and
163 sets TERM to "vt102" if one is found.
