OpenWRT集成busybox配置项的流程
来源 https://www.openwrt.pro/post-613.html
1、研究背景
我们在开发的过程中可能需要移植OpenWRT上没有的软件包，而这些软件包又比较特殊。例如，像busybox那样自带kconfig配置文件供生成菜单配置界面的软件包。我们可以直接在这个软件包根目录下执行make menuconfig来配置我们需要的功能，保存配置后在这个软件包的源码根目录下直接执行make命令即可编译该软件包。
但是，想将这样的软件包集成到OpenWRT中，就需要把这些配置项都集成到OpenWRT的配置中。考虑到在OpenWRT中，busybox就是一个很典型的集成案例。所以，我们在集成这样的软件包时就可以参考它的集成方式。
下面，我们就以busybox为例进行说明，源码摘自github，如下：
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/tree/master/package/utils/busybox
2、OpenWRT如何集成busybox的配置项
busybox本身也自带了很多配置选项，但实际上我们却可以在OpenWRT总的配置项中对其进行配置，而不需要进入busybox目录单独对其做进行配置。
通过查看busybox包的顶层Makefile，可以发现，OpenWRT是这样集成busybox的配置项的。不改动busybox原来的配置项，而是针对busybox每个配置项都另外生成一个对应的配置项，用于集成到OpenWRT中。
这些配置项被定义在openwrt/package/utils/busybox/config目录中。并通过 openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Config.in文件连接到OpenWRT总的配置项中。
接下来，我们就结合代码(openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Makefile)来分析一下这个OpenWRT集成busybox配置项的过程，代码如下所示：

从该Makefile的第69~71行可以看出，对于OpenWRT而言，busybox的配置项就来源于$(SOURCE)/Config.in文件。
接下来，我们看下openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Config.in这个busybox总的配置文件。代码如下所示：
1 if PACKAGE_busybox || PACKAGE_busybox-selinux 2 3 config BUSYBOX_CUSTOM 4 bool "Customize busybox options" 5 default n 6 help 7 Enabling this allows full customization of busybox settings. 8 Note that there are many options here that can result in a build 9 that doesn't work properly. Enabling customization will mark your 10 build as "tainted" for the purpose of bug reports. 11 See the variables written to /etc/openwrt_release 12 13 Unless you know what you are doing, you should leave this as 'n' 14 15 source "Config-defaults.in" 16 17 if BUSYBOX_CUSTOM 18 source "config/Config.in" 19 endif 20 21 endif
可以看到，配置文件Config.in中定义了一个名为BUSYBOX_CUSTOM的配置项。当没有选中该配置项的时候，只导入默认配置文件”Config-default.in”中的配置。当我们选中该配置项的时，就再导入config目录下对应于busybox原生配置项的配置文件，进而允许用户自定义busybox的全部功能。
我们暂且看Config.in文件中自定义配置的内容。此时，Config.in只导入了Config-defaults.in文件中的配置项。打开Config-defaults.in这个文件可以看到，里面定义了一系列以BUSYBOX_DEFAULT开头的配置项。具体的代码如下所示：

23 with common Linux distro, which needs higher level of command-line
24 compatibility.

26 If you are preparing your build to be used on an embedded box
27 where you have tighter control over the entire set of userspace

34 This option makes grep, sed etc handle rare corner cases

45 At the time of this writing (2017-08) this only affects uname:
46 normally, uname -p (processor) and uname -i (platform)
47 are shown as "unknown", but with this option uname -p
48 shows the same string as uname -m (machine type),
49 and so does uname -i unless machine type is i486/i586/i686 -
50 then uname -i shows "i386".

93
94 If you have a really tiny busybox with few applets enabled (and
95 bunzip2 isn't one of them), the overhead of the decompressor might
96 be noticeable. Also, if you run executables directly from ROM
97 and have very little memory, this might not be a win. Otherwise,
98 you probably want this.

209 root-level operations even when run by ordinary users
210 (for example, mounting of user mounts in fstab needs this).
211
212 With this option enabled, busybox drops privileges for applets
213 that don't need root access, before entering their main() function.
214
215 If you are really paranoid and don't want even initial busybox code
216 to run under root for every applet, build two busybox binaries with
217 different applets in them (and the appropriate symlinks pointing
218 to each binary), and only set the suid bit on the one that needs it.
219
220 Some applets which require root rights (need suid bit on the binary
221 or to be run by root) and will refuse to execute otherwise:
222 crontab, login, passwd, su, vlock, wall.
223
224 The applets which will use root rights if they have them
225 (via suid bit, or because run by root), but would try to work
226 without root right nevertheless:
227 findfs, ping[6], traceroute[6], mount.
228
229 Note that if you DO NOT select this option, but DO make busybox

295 This may affect shell, find -exec, xargs and similar applets.
296 They will use applets even if /bin/APPLET -> busybox link
297 is missing (or is not a link to busybox). However, this causes
298 problems in chroot jails without mounted /proc and with ps/top

683 This enables compiling with dmalloc ( http://dmalloc.com/ )
684 which is an excellent public domain mem leak and malloc problem
685 detector. To enable dmalloc, before running busybox you will
686 want to properly set your environment, for example:
687 export DMALLOC_OPTIONS=debug=0x34f47d83,inter=100,log=logfile
688 The 'debug=' value is generated using the following command
689 dmalloc -p log-stats -p log-non-free -p log-bad-space \

697 fence is another very useful malloc debugging library which uses

699 accesses. This support will make busybox be considerably larger

其实，这些配置项就是busybox原本对应的所有配置项。只是名字不同而已。最后，在Makefile中会将这些配置项转换为busybox本身的配置文件。openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Makefile代码如下所示：
120 define Build/Configure 121 rm -f $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.config 122 touch $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.config 123 ifeq ($(DEVICE_TYPE),nas) 124 echo "CONFIG_HDPARM=y" >> $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.config 125 endif 126 ifeq ($(BUILD_VARIANT),selinux) 127 cat $(TOPDIR)/$(SOURCE)/selinux.config >> $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.config 128 endif 129 grep 'CONFIG_BUSYBOX_$(BUSYBOX_SYM)' $(TOPDIR)/.config | sed -e "s,\\(# \)\\?CONFIG_BUSYBOX_$(BUSYBOX_SYM)_\\(.*\\),\\1CONFIG_\\2,g" >> $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/.config 130 yes 'n' | $(MAKE) -C $(PKG_BUILD_DIR) $(MAKE_FLAGS) oldconfig 131 endef
其中，$(BUSYBOX_SYM)这个变量也是在Makefile中赋值的。这个变量被定义在openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Makefile文件的第25行中，具体如下所示：
25 BUSYBOX_SYM=$(if $(CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CUSTOM),CONFIG,DEFAULT)
这样一来我们就清楚了。在busybox的Makefile中，未选中CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CUSTOM的情况下，BUSYBOX_SYM的值为DEFAULT，则将CONFIG_BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_xxx筛选出来，处理为busybox最终的配置项，而这些CONFIG_BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_xxx是在Config-defaults.in文件中配置好的。
在选中了CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CUSTOM的情况下，则最终将CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx筛选出来使用。
接下来，我们就来看一下自定义的情况。自定义的情况其实也很清晰，就是引入了config目录下的配置项。这些配置项，跟busybox源码中的布局和内容完全一致，区别只是配置项的名字均以BUSYBOX_CONFIG开头，且默认值均为对应的以BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_开头的配置项。而这些BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_开头的配置项都是在Config-default.in中配置的。例如 openwrt/package/utils/busybox/config/init/Config.in文件中的例子：

也就是说，当用户需要自定义的时候引入了BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx的配置项。但是，其默认值还是用以前已经配置好的。此时，要自定义的话就在这个基础上进行修改即可。
最终用户的配置就体现在BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx的配置项上。如前面介绍的那样，在选中了CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CUSTOM的情况下，BUSYBOX_SYM的值为CONFIG，则将CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx筛选出来，处理为busybox最终的配置项。
3、配置项文件的生成
搞清楚了如何集成之后，接下来的问题就是，这些BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_xxx 和 BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx 的配置文件，是怎么来的，如此多的配置项，肯定不可能时手工修改的，必然有自动化处理。
是的，这些BUSYBOX_CONFIG_xxx配置项，就是从busybox本身的配置项生成而来。而这些BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_xxx的默认配置值，其实就是从一份配置好的busybox.config文件生成而来。在busybox的包中，就提供了两个脚本 convert_defaults.pl 和 convert_menuconfig.pl，用来生成配置项和默认配置值
4、使软件包随配置项改变而重新编译
一般软件包在编译过一次之后，如果源码没有改动，则下次make无须重新编译。
但对于busybox这种包，源码未变，配置改变了的话，也是需要重新编译的。现在的问题在于，用户修改配置项，是在openwrt的.config修改，根本不会改动到busybox这个目录下的文件。
那么busybox包就需要有一个方法，来监控配置项的变动。如果配置项变化，则需要重新编译。如何监控呢？从makefile中也可以找到答案，正如openwrt/package/utils/busybox/Makefile文件中如下代码那样。
34 ifeq ($(DUMP),) 35 STAMP_CONFIGURED:=$(strip $(STAMP_CONFIGURED))_$(shell grep '^CONFIG_BUSYBOX_' $(TOPDIR)/.config | $(MKHASH) md5) 36 endif
此处设置了STAMP_CONFIGURED变量，这个变量的值，是将.config中所有CONFIG_BUSYBOX_滤出，再做md5得到的值。一旦这些配置项发生变化，则md5的值会改变，STAMP_CONFIGURED的值也会改变。编译包的时候，就能判断出需要重新编译。
具体的，STAMP_CONFIGURED值是在package.mk中使用。这里还有其他的类似变量，只要改变了，就说明需要重新执行对应的操作。如STAMP_CONFIGURED，STAMP_BUILT，STAMP_INSTALLED等。
这个配置项，也会在软件包的编译目录体现出来。如果没有对其赋值，则在编译目录下，可看到名字类似 .configured_yyy 的隐藏文件。
对其进行赋值之后，这个文件的形式会变成 .configured_yyy_622f380fff06dde988852308f044653b 这种形式，后面跟着的就是由配置项生产的md5值。
5、总结
弄清楚OpenWRT集成busybox配置的套路之后，修改一下convert_defaults.pl 和 convert_menuconfig.pl文件，就可以套用到其他软件包上了。
