64位ubuntu 12.04系统编译busybox遇到的问题处理办法
今天研究了一下busybox的编译。自己下了一个busybox-1.25.0的版本（直接从busybox官网上下载：https://busybox.net/downloads/），进行编译，遇到了一些问题，通过百度搜索和自己摸索，也成功解决了，详细记录如下：
首先交代一下系统版本和开发环境：
- 操作系统：ubuntu 12.04（64bit）
- 交叉编译工具链：arm-linux-gcc 4.4.3
- busybox源码包：busybox-1.25.0
一、修改Makefile配置
首先解压源码包：
tar -jxvf busybox-1.25.0.tar.bz2进入busybox-1.25.0目录，修改Makefile文件如下：
ARCH ?= arm
CROSS_COMPILE ?= arm-linux-二、修改配置文件
make menuconfig选择Busybox Settings—>Build Options—>，选择[*] Build Busybox as a static binary（no shared libs）；
三、编译源码，解决问题
make clean
make出现如下错误：
miscutils/nandwrite.c: In function 'nandwrite_main':
miscutils/nandwrite.c:151: error: 'MTD_FILE_MODE_RAW' undeclared (first use in this function)
miscutils/nandwrite.c:151: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
miscutils/nandwrite.c:151: error: for each function it appears in.)
scripts/Makefile.build:197: recipe for target 'miscutils/nandwrite.o' failed
make[1]: *** [miscutils/nandwrite.o] Error 1
Makefile:742: recipe for target 'miscutils' failed
make: *** [miscutils] Error 2解决办法：
MTD_FILE_MODE_RAW在/usr/include/mtd/mtd-abi.h中定义，于是将/usr/include/mtd/mtd-abi.h拷贝到busybox的include文件中，然后在nandwrite.c文件中包含该头文件：
gedit miscutils/nandwrite.c 修改
#include "libbb.h"
#include 为
#include "libbb.h"
#include "mtd-abi.h"
#include 此问题解决。继续make，又出现如下错误：
util-linux/blkdiscard.c: In function 'blkdiscard_main':
util-linux/blkdiscard.c:72: error: 'BLKSECDISCARD' undeclared (first use in this function)
util-linux/blkdiscard.c:72: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
util-linux/blkdiscard.c:72: error: for each function it appears in.)
scripts/Makefile.build:197: recipe for target 'util-linux/blkdiscard.o' failed
make[1]: *** [util-linux/blkdiscard.o] Error 1
Makefile:742: recipe for target 'util-linux' failed
make: *** [util-linux] Error 2解决办法：
BLKSECDISCARD在/usr/include/linux/fs.h中定义，同上理，直接将/usr/include/linux/fs.h拷贝到busybox的include文件中，不过这次还要额外修改一下文件中的部分内容，否则会出现编译失败。
1、屏蔽以下4个头文件（否则编译时会提示找不到头文件）：
//#include .h>
//#include _types.h>
//#include 2、屏蔽以下几个结构体（否则编译时会提示找不到类型定义）：
#if 0
struct fstrim_range {
__u64 start;
__u64 len;
__u64 minlen;
};
/* And dynamically-tunable limits and defaults: */
struct files_stat_struct {
unsigned long nr_files; /* read only */
unsigned long nr_free_files; /* read only */
unsigned long max_files; /* tunable */
};
struct inodes_stat_t {
int nr_inodes;
int nr_unused;
int dummy[5]; /* padding for sysctl ABI compatibility */
};
#endif然后修改blkdiscard.c中对fs.h头文件的包含方式：
gedit util-linux/blkdiscard.c修改
#include 为
#include "fs.h"继续make，编译能通过了。但是在链接的时候出现问题：

make menuconfigLinux System Utilities—>nsenter，去掉该选项，重新编译make，又出现如下错误：

Makefile:717: recipe for target 'busybox_unstripped' failed
make: *** [busybox_unstripped] Error 1解决办法：
make menuconfigCoreutils—>sync选项去掉，重新make编译通过，终于顺利生成了busybox可执行文件。
OK，今天到此为止，明天再继续研究。
搞定，收工！
篇后语：
1、编译完后对上述几个问题进行反思，发现这几个问题其实来讲可以分为2类。一类是头文件包含的问题，一类是make menuconfig配置的问题。后者，可能跟每个人的配置需求有关。但是前者的问题，我认为busybox公司完全可以将那2个头文件直接包含在源码包中，将相关代码修改成OK的状态，让我们下载过来就可以直接编译通过，免去我们这番折腾。但是为何busybox公司没有这么做呢？其中应该是有原因的，暂时想不通，待日后再仔细琢磨吧。
2、本文撰写时，使用的busybox工具源码版本是busybox-1.25.0，使用上述方法验证通过。不过，紧接着，我又验证了最新的busybox-1.26.2版本，同样使用上述方法，顺利通过，编译成功。证明本文中的方法应该对于各个版本都是通用的。
3、本文只是简单的介绍了一下使用busybox过程中遇到几个编译出错的问题的解决办法，并未对整套编译流程进行详细介绍。关于如何利用busybox工具编译出linux根文件系统的完整流程，可参见我的另外一篇博客（如何使用busybox编译和生成最简linux根文件系统（rootfs））。
