* system: separate sysv and systemd parts of the skeletonYann E. MORIN2017-08-021-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For systemd, we create a simple /etc/fstab with only an entry for /, as systemd otherwise automatically mounts what it needs where it needs it. systemd does not like that the content of /var be symlinks to /tmp, especially journald that starts before /tmp is mounted, and thus the journal files are hidden from view, which causes quite a bit of fuss... Instead, move the current /var to a sysv-only skeleton. systemd at install time will create the /var content it needs, so we just create an empty /var for systemd. systemd would create /home and /srv at runtime if they are missing, but it is better to create them right now, to simplify supporting systemd on a RO filesystem in the (near) future.

* skeleton: fix permissions on /dev/pts/ptmxJan Kundrát2017-03-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without this patch, it is not possible to allocate PTYs when a generated rootfs image with a recent glibc and systemd is launched as a container on an RHEL7 system via machinectl/systemd-nspawn. The container boots, but `machinectl login mycontainer` fails. The culprit is /dev/pts/ptmx with 0000 perms. On a typical system, there are two `ptmx` devices. One is provided by the devpts at /dev/pts/ptmx and it is typically not directly accessed from userspace. The other one which actually *is* opened by processes is /dev/ptmx. Kernel's documentation says these days that /dev/ptmx should be either a symlink, or a bind mount of the /dev/pts/ptmx from devpts. When a container is launched via machinectl/machined/systemd-nspawn, the container manager prepares a root filesystem so that the container can live in an appropriate namespace (this is similar to what initramfs is doing on x86 desktops). During these preparations, systemd-nspawn mounts a devpts instance using a correct ptmxmode=0666 within the container-to-be's /dev/pts, and it adds a compatibility symlink at /dev/ptmx. However, once systemd takes over as an init in the container, /lib/systemd/systemd-remount-fs applies mount options from /etc/fstab to all fileystems. Because the buildroot's template used to not include the ptmxmode=... option, a default value of 0000 was taking an effect which in turn led to not being able to allocate any pseudo-terminals. The relevant kernel option was introduced upstream in commit 1f8f1e29 back in 2009. The oldest linux-headers referenced from buildroot's config is 3.0, and that version definitely has that commit. Mount options that are not understood by the system are anyway ignored, so backward compatibility is preserved.

* skeleton: make /run a proper directory/filesystemGustavo Zacarias2015-02-031-9/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Making /var/run and /run symlinks to /tmp is bad since the underlying tmpfs filesystem is mode 1777 which leads to possible security attack vectors via badly owned/mask-mode pidfiles and state files residing there. So make /run a proper directory with /var/run symlinked to it. Eventually all startup scripts and state info should be pointed to /run directly as per the linux fhs and good practice. Add a tmpfs filesystem entry for /run so that busybox inittab, systemv inittab and systemd automount mounts it there to avoid breaking the system. While at it fix inconsistent spacing in /etc/fstab by using tabs and drop the "static file system information" header whatever that means.

* skeleton: /etc/fstab: make sure /tmp is world writable and stickyPeter Korsgaard2014-02-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | ramfs (which is used instead of tmpfs if CONFIG_SHMEM isn't enabled in the kernel configuration), defaults to mode 0755 instead of 01777 like tmpfs uses. /tmp should be world writable and sticky, so explictly enforce the mode so ramfs users gets it correct instead of relying on the defaults.

* New top-level directory: systemThomas Petazzoni2012-11-041-0/+9
This directory groups the following elements: * the default root filesystem skeleton * the default device tables * the Config.in options for system configuration (UART port for getty, system hostname, etc.) * the make rules to apply the system configuration options Even though the skeleton and device tables could have lived in fs/, it would have been strange to have the UART, system hostname and other related options into fs/. A new system/ directory makes more sense. As a consequence, this patch also removes target/Makefile.in, which has become useless in the process.
