It provides minimalist replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in \s-1GNU\s0 coreutils, util-linux, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured \s-1GNU\s0 cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their \s-1GNU\s0 counterparts. .PP BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind. It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded systems. To create a working system, just add /dev, /etc, and a Linux kernel. BusyBox provides a fairly complete \s-1POSIX\s0 environment for any small or embedded system. .PP BusyBox is extremely configurable. This allows you to include only the components you need, thereby reducing binary size. Run 'make config' or 'make menuconfig' to select the functionality that you wish to enable. Then run \&'make' to compile BusyBox using your configuration. .PP After the compile has finished, you should use 'make install' to install BusyBox. This will install the 'bin/busybox' binary, in the target directory specified by \s-1CONFIG_PREFIX. CONFIG_PREFIX\s0 can be set when configuring BusyBox, or you can specify an alternative location at install time (i.e., with a command line like 'make CONFIG_PREFIX=/tmp/foo install'). If you enabled any applet installation scheme (either as symlinks or hardlinks), these will also be installed in the location pointed to by \s-1CONFIG_PREFIX.\s0 .SH "USAGE" .IX Header "USAGE" BusyBox is a multi-call binary. A multi-call binary is an executable program that performs the same job as more than one utility program. That means there is just a single BusyBox binary, but that single binary acts like a large number of utilities. This allows BusyBox to be smaller since all the built-in utility programs (we call them applets) can share code for many common operations. .PP You can also invoke BusyBox by issuing a command as an argument on the command line. For example, entering .PP .Vb 1 \& /bin/busybox ls .Ve .PP will also cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls'. .PP Of course, adding '/bin/busybox' into every command would be painful. So most people will invoke BusyBox using links to the BusyBox binary. .PP For example, entering .PP .Vb 2 \& ln \-s /bin/busybox ls \& ./ls .Ve .PP will cause BusyBox to behave as 'ls' (if the 'ls' command has been compiled into BusyBox). Generally speaking, you should never need to make all these links yourself, as the BusyBox build system will do this for you when you run the 'make install' command. .PP If you invoke BusyBox with no arguments, it will provide you with a list of the applets that have been compiled into your BusyBox binary. .SH "COMMON OPTIONS" .IX Header "COMMON OPTIONS" Most BusyBox applets support the \fB\-\-help\fR argument to provide a terse runtime description of their behavior. If the \s-1CONFIG_FEATURE_VERBOSE_USAGE\s0 option has been enabled, more detailed usage information will also be available. .SH "COMMANDS" .IX Header "COMMANDS" Currently available applets include: .PP .Vb 10 \& [, [[, acpid, adjtimex, ar, arch, arp, arping, ascii, ash, awk, \& base64, basename, bc, blkdiscard, blkid, blockdev, brctl, bunzip2, \& bzcat, bzip2, cal, cat, chgrp, chmod, chown, chroot, chvt, clear, \& cmp, cp, cpio, crc32, crond, crontab, cttyhack, cut, date, dc, dd, \& deallocvt, depmod, devmem, df, diff, dirname, dmesg, dnsdomainname, \& dos2unix, dpkg, dpkg\-deb, du, dumpkmap, dumpleases, echo, ed, egrep, \& env, expand, expr, factor, fallocate, false, fatattr, fdisk, fgrep, \& find, findfs, fold, free, freeramdisk, fsfreeze, fstrim, ftpget, \& ftpput, getopt, getty, grep, groups, gunzip, gzip, halt, head, \& hexdump, hostid, hostname, httpd, hwclock, i2cdetect, i2cdump, \& i2cget, i2cset, i2ctransfer, id, ifconfig, ifdown, ifup, init, \& insmod, ionice, ip, ipcalc, kill, killall, klogd, last, less, link, \& linux32, linux64, linuxrc, ln, loadfont, loadkmap, logger, login, \& logname, logread, losetup, ls, lsmod, lsscsi, lzcat, lzma, lzop, \& md5sum, mdev, microcom, mim, mkdir, mkdosfs, mke2fs, mkfifo, mknod, \& mkpasswd, mkswap, mktemp, modinfo, modprobe, more, mount, mt, mv, \& nameif, nbd\-client, nc, netstat, nl, nologin, nproc, nsenter, \& nslookup, nuke, od, openvt, partprobe, passwd, paste, patch, pidof, \& ping, ping6, pivot_root, poweroff, printf, ps, pwd, rdate, readlink, \& realpath, reboot, renice, reset, resume, rev, rm, rmdir, rmmod, \& route, rpm, rpm2cpio, run\-init, run\-parts, sed, seq, setkeycodes, \& setpriv, setsid, sh, sha1sum, sha256sum, sha3sum, sha512sum, shred, \& shuf, sleep, sort, ssl_client, start\-stop\-daemon, stat, strings, \& stty, su, sulogin, svc, svok, swapoff, swapon, switch_root, sync, \& sysctl, syslogd, tac, tail, tar, taskset, tc, tee, telnet, test, \& tftp, time, timeout, top, touch, tr, traceroute, traceroute6, true, \& truncate, ts, tty, tunctl, ubirename, udhcpc, udhcpc6, udhcpd, \& uevent, umount, uname, uncompress, unexpand, uniq, unix2dos, unlink, \& unlzma, unshare, unxz, unzip, uptime, usleep, uudecode, uuencode, \& vconfig, vi, w, watch, watchdog, wc, wget, which, who, whoami, \& xargs, xxd, xz, xzcat, yes, zcat .Ve .SH "COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS" .IX Header "COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS" .IP "\fBacpid\fR" 4 .IX Item "acpid" acpid [\-df] [\-c \s-1CONFDIR\s0] [\-l \s-1LOGFILE\s0] [\-a \s-1ACTIONFILE\s0] [\-M \s-1MAPFILE\s0] [\-e \s-1PROC_EVENT_FILE\s0] [\-p \s-1PIDFILE\s0] .Sp Listen to \s-1ACPI\s0 events and spawn specific helpers on event arrival .Sp .Vb 8 \& \-d Log to stderr, not log file (implies \-f) \& \-f Run in foreground \& \-c DIR Config directory [/etc/acpi] \& \-e FILE /proc event file [/proc/acpi/event] \& \-l FILE Log file [/var/log/acpid.log] \& \-p FILE Pid file [/var/run/acpid.pid] \& \-a FILE Action file [/etc/acpid.conf] \& \-M FILE Map file [/etc/acpi.map] .Ve .Sp Accept and ignore compatibility options \-g \-m \-s \-S \-v .IP "\fBadjtimex\fR" 4 .IX Item "adjtimex" adjtimex [\-q] [\-o \s-1OFS\s0] [\-f \s-1FREQ\s0] [\-p \s-1TCONST\s0] [\-t \s-1TICK\s0] .Sp Read or set kernel time variables.

This is implemented using an /etc/nsswitch.conf configuration file, and using one or more of the /lib/libnss_* libraries. BusyBox tries to avoid using any libc calls that make use of \s-1NSS.\s0 Some applets however, such as login and su, will use libc functions that require \s-1NSS.\s0 .PP If you enable \s-1CONFIG_USE_BB_PWD_GRP,\s0 BusyBox will use internal functions to directly access the /etc/passwd, /etc/group, and /etc/shadow files without using \s-1NSS.\s0 This may allow you to run your system without the need for installing any of the \s-1NSS\s0 configuration files and libraries. .PP When used with glibc, the BusyBox 'networking' applets will similarly require that you install at least some of the glibc \s-1NSS\s0 stuff (in particular, /etc/nsswitch.conf, /lib/libnss_dns*, /lib/libnss_files*, and /lib/libresolv*). .PP Shameless Plug: As an alternative, one could use a C library such as uClibc. In addition to making your system significantly smaller, uClibc does not require the use of any \s-1NSS\s0 support files or libraries. .SH "MAINTAINER" .IX Header "MAINTAINER" Denis Vlasenko .SH "AUTHORS" .IX Header "AUTHORS" The following people have contributed code to BusyBox whether they know it or not.
