fs/common: add option to execute custom scripts under fakeroot

2016-07-03T18:58:46+00:00

Some users have the need to be able to tweak the content of the target rootfs with root-like rights, that is, from inside the fakeroot script. Add a new system option to allow those users to provide a list of scripts, like the post-build and post-image scripts, that will be run from our fakeroot script.

fs: add sha-bang to fakeroot script

2016-06-07T21:13:36+00:00

We directly running this script, so it should start with a sha-bang (not sure why/how it works today...). Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

fs/common: add _POST_GEN_HOOKS support

2015-08-10T18:56:05+00:00

The common filesystem infrastructure already supports a _PRE_GEN_HOOKS variable, which allows filesystem makefiles to register some actions to be done before the root filesystem image is generated. This commit adds a similiar _POST_GEN_HOOKS variable, which will allow filesystem makefiles to do some actions after the filesystem image has been generated. It will initially be used by the iso9660 filesystem to delete the temporary directory it creates. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Noé Rubinstein Acked-by: "Yann E.

fs: build host-mkpasswd when BR2_ROOTFS_USERS_TABLES is used

2015-07-21T21:12:52+00:00

The code in fs/common.mk properly triggers the build of host-mkpasswd when at least one package specifies a _USERS variable. However, when no selected package specifies a _USERS variable but the user uses a custom users table through BR2_ROOTFS_USERS_TABLES, then we forget to build host-mkpasswd, leading to build failures if you don't have mkpasswd installed in your machine. This commit fixes that by taking into account both the package users table and the custom users table when deciding to depend or not on host-mkpasswd.

fs: only add non rootfs- targets to PACKAGES

2015-04-26T10:16:19+00:00

Commit 4570dbcb14b394d8f3c97baf4c9e5f4f225d1d37 ("4570dbcb14b394d8f3c97baf4c9e5f4f225d1d37") added the dependencies of rootfs building logic to PACKAGES, only thinking about the case where rootfs building logic actually depends on real, normal packages (host-mtd, host-genext2fs, etc.). But some file systems (rootfs-ubi) depend on other filesystem images (rootfs-ubifs). And such targets should not be added to PACKAGES, otherwise an incorrect circular dependency is created. This commit fixes that by only adding the rootfs building logic dependencies that do *not* start with rootfs- to the global PACKAGES variable. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Reviewed-by: "Yann E.

fs: add rootfs dependencies to PACKAGES

2015-04-14T08:17:04+00:00

The logic for creating most of the filesystem images requires a certain number of host packages to be built. However, those packages are not currently listed in the global PACKAGES variables, and they are not dependencies of any other package listed in the PACKAGES variable. While it does not have any practical implications, it makes sense to have those packages listed in the global PACKAGES variable, which this commit implements.
