32 Any older encodings are not guaranteed to work.
33 Probably by the time when busybox will be fully Unicode-clean,

Eric Andersen53601822002-12-05 21:12:42 +000040 There are 3 ways BusyBox can handle buffer allocations:
41 - Use malloc. This costs code size for the call to xmalloc.
42 - Put them on stack. For some very small machines with limited stack
43 space, this can be deadly. For most folks, this works just fine.
44 - Put them in BSS. This works beautifully for computers with a real
45 MMU (and OS support), but wastes runtime RAM for uCLinux. This
46 behavior was the only one available for BusyBox versions 0.48 and
47 earlier.

Denis Vlasenkod62fd842007-10-07 20:46:34 +0000304 This feature allows every applet to be built as a tiny
305 separate executable. Enabling it for "one big busybox binary"
306 approach serves no purpose and increases code size.
307 You should almost certainly say "no" to this.

Eric Andersenc9f20d92002-12-05 08:41:41 +0000440 This enables compiling with dmalloc ( http://dmalloc.com/ )
441 which is an excellent public domain mem leak and malloc problem
442 detector. To enable dmalloc, before running busybox you will
443 want to properly set your environment, for example:
444 export DMALLOC_OPTIONS=debug=0x34f47d83,inter=100,log=logfile
445 The 'debug=' value is generated using the following command
446 dmalloc -p log-stats -p log-non-free -p log-bad-space -p log-elapsed-time \
447 -p check-fence -p check-heap -p check-lists -p check-blank \

Eric Andersen88c916b2003-10-22 09:58:56 +0000453 fence is another very useful malloc debugging library which uses
Eric Andersenc7bda1c2004-03-15 08:29:22 +0000454 your computer's virtual memory hardware to detect illegal memory
455 accesses. This support will make BusyBox be considerable larger
