From c5bd8af65e50a51735eb112fed9cbe6337f14e06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yann E. MORIN" Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2015 22:17:32 +0200 Subject: system: add options for /bin /sbin and /lib to be symlinks into /usr systemd is increasingly expecting things to live in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin or /usr/lib nad not in /bin, /sbin or /lib. It has inherited those expectations from a Fedora change: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove Note however, that systemd does support /usr being on a separate filesystem; it just expects an initramfs to mount it before the final switchroot over to the actual rootfs. But the traditional use-case for Buildroot is not to boot with an initramfs; although that is totally feasible, that's probably not what is commonly done in the vast majority of cases. However, a lot of packages still install stuff directly into /bin, /sbin or /lib, which systemd may need early-on in the boot process, even before it may have a chance to mount /usr. Even though we can tell systemd, at configure-time, where it should expect programs to be at runtime, it does not make sense to go head-first against an upstream wa^Hill. Add an option so that /bin, /sbin and /lib be symlinks to /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. That option is forcibly enabled when the init system is systemd. Note: we need not handle /lib32 or /lib64, as they already are symlinks to /lib, which means they will automatically be redirected to /usr/lib, as /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64 already are. Furthermore, this means we're no longer supporting a split-usr setup, so the corresponding configure options have been removed as well for systemd and, when using a merged /usr, for eudev as well. In Buildroot, we decided (with this patch) not to support a split-usr when systemd is used as an init system. This is a design decision, not a systemd issue. Thus the select is with BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD rather than with BR2_PACKAGE_SYSTEMD. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.
