19 years agoFrom Rich Paul:
Rob Landley [Thu, 28 Jul 2005 19:38:52 +0000 (19:38 -0000)]
From Rich Paul:

I've noticed that when I compile busybox on my laptop, it compiles more
slowly than one would expect, and although it's a (more-or-less)
multiprocessor system and I use -j5, make never seems to run more than
one job at a time.

I believe I have found the culprit:  each time a file is compiled, gcc
runs about 5 times.  This is because the $(check_gcc) macros and the
TARGET_ARCH macros are late binding.

The attached patch cuts the compilation time by 66%, from 1.5 minutes to
30 seconds.  Your mileage may very.  These statements have not been
evaluated by the FDA.

Erik pointed out that in the last try at the #ifdef cleanup
infrastructure, the compiler isn't smart enough to replace const static
int with the constant, and allocates space for each set of them,
bloating the executable something fierce.  Oops.

So now, we #define ENABLE_XXX to 0 or 1 for each CONFIG_XXX (which
is still there so the 1000+ #ifdef/#ifndef tests don't have to be
replaced wholesale).  Changed the test instance in networking/ifconfig.c
to use this.

Rob Landley [Wed, 27 Jul 2005 06:55:36 +0000 (06:55 -0000)]
#ifdef reduction infrastructure, based on an argument between Shaun Jackman,
Rob Landley, and others.

Currently CONFIG options are defined or undefined, so we chop out code with
#ifdefs, ala:
#ifdef CONFIG_THING
  stuff();
#endif

This creates a new header file, bb_config.h, which sets the CONFIG entry to 1
or 0, and lets us do:

  if(CONFIG_THING) stuff();

And let the compiler do dead code elimination to get rid of it.  (Note: #ifdef
will still work because for the 1 case it's a static const int, not a #define.)

Tito posted a devfsd error message fix.  It's highly deprecated and will
presumably be removed eventually (use udev), but as long as it's in there.

Tito says:

The sense of this patch is to call:
read_config_file_err:
#ifdef CONFIG_DEVFSD_VERBOSE
    msg_logger(((optional ==  0 ) && (errno == ENOENT))? DIE : NO_DIE, LOG_ERR, "read config file: %s: %m\n", path);
#else
    if(optional ==  0  && errno == ENOENT)
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
#endif

just after the failure of the  call that set errno ( stat and fopen)
to avoid false error messages.

Here's a fix for this. There is another problem with constructions like
"print (A+B) ++C", I don't
know whether somebody uses such constructions (fixing both these
problems would require very
serious change in awk code).

Thus spake Brenda J. Butler:

We were seeing some timeouts when getting files with the busybox tftp
client.

With tcpdump, we saw that the tftp client was receiving blocks and
ack'ing them, but the server was failing to receive the occasional
ack.

When that happened, the server would send the last block over again,
but the tftp client was expecting the next block.

This patch allows the client to recover from this situation
(it sends an ack for the repeat block but does not write it
to the local file).

I hope it meets your approval, please don't hesitate to send
me comments for improvement.

The patch is against "head" in svn, I tested it on an older version
of busybox in our environment.  It applied cleanly to the older
version.

Credit for this goes to my co-worker John McCarthy for finding
it and me for fixing it (assuming it works for everyone else too).

cheerio,
bjb
