We are discussing one issue with "util-linux" package building. The problem is in "util-linux" wants to use alloc modifier (either "%as" or "%ms") in scanf(). Looks like uClibc still doesn't support neither "%ms" nor "%as" (this one is obsolete glibc-specific so let's not bother with it anyways). Now to work-around this missing requirement we used to use an off-the-tree patch like this one in Buildroot: https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/tree/package/util-linux/0001-Fix-libmount-...

The question to you is where do you think we should fix mentioned problem: 1) In uClibc-ng with addition of "%ms" support in scanf or
I would prefer this solution. I have started reading the code, but I can't give you any guarantee when I can work on this. Do you have free resources to cook up a patch? :)
2) Try to upstream mentioned patch in "util-linux"?

I agree that this needs to be fixed in uclibc John

You mean if I'm up to implement this missing feature in uClibc? Well I'd like to but as well not sure if and when I have time for that :) For now we have a work-around with mentioned patches. So that's not a showstopper. -Alexey

well,t he requirement for keeping uclibc support in the tree is that people fix uclibc issues. so someone has to fix it. waldemar promised to address uclibc issues if we use his ng tree. John

a while ago I touched %m support for %c and %[...] in uclibc (b2d27c71bd13820a4263fa7ebda4c1a4a95b501c), I've got an impression that %ms was working. I've expanded test/stdio/scanf_m.c a bit (attached) and it appears to work. So I'm curious, how the issue manifests itself. -- Thanks. -- Max

Thanks for the patch. Indeed I was wondering why I have no patch included in OpenADK. I am overriding the configure check: CONFIGURE_ENV+= have_scanf_alloc_modifier=yes \ scanf_cv_alloc_modifier=ms So either the autoconf check is faulty or uClibc-ng implementation is somehow not correct. We need to check the autoconf configure check. best regards Waldemar

We need to check the autoconf configure check.
The check looks like this: | #include <stdio.h> | #include <unistd.h> | | #ifdef __GLIBC__ | | #if !(__GLIBC_PREREQ(2, 7)) | #error %m is not available | #endif | | #elif defined(_POSIX_VERSION) | | #if _POSIX_VERSION < 200809L | #error %m is not available | #endif | | #else | #error Your C-library is not supported. | #endif And its result with uClibc-ng is the following: conftest.c:136:7: error: #error %m is not available #error %m is not available Because we have the following definition in features.h: /* Major and minor version number of the GNU C library package. Use these macros to test for features in specific releases. */ /* Don't do it, if you want to keep uClibc happy. */ #define __GLIBC__ 2 #define __GLIBC_MINOR__ 2 -- Thanks. -- Max

During configuration of "util-linux" it tests if "%as" or "ms" could be used when compiling a simple test. If not then "libmount" gets disabled. Then in OpenWRT/Lede on installation of "util-linux" to staging folder explicit "cp" is executed for copying some of "libmount" build artifacts and since "libmount" was never built "cp" fails and so entire build stops. -Alexey
