Hi,
I am preparing a release and would like to remove UCLIBC_HAS_LFS before doing it.
I believe UCLIBC_HAS_LFS does make the code more complex and the benefit to disable it to save some bytes is not high enough.
Most users have UCLIBC_HAS_LFS enabled and it is enabled by default.
Attached is a patch.
Any comments?
best regards Waldemar
I welcome this change - is there going to be impact on downstream projects like busybox. What if it some disables CONFIG_LFS inside busybox ?
In Buildroot, we have dropped the ability to disable LFS since March 2015. It was really too annoying to maintain the !LFS case, for no real benefit.
So I'm completely fine with uClibc-ng dropping !LFS support upstream, since Buildroot no longer cares about this possibility.
Best regards,
Thomas
