According table above, busybox depends on "libc-libm libc-crypt libc-posix-regexp libc-inet libc-utmp libc-getlogin". And "libc-libm libc-crypt" can not be disabled currently, and the following patch for busybox to remove all that depends on the left options.

=== MIPS ===
Another update is about '''mips'''. Because the code to support mips architecture use macro "GLRO(dl_debug_mask)" in file ports/sysdeps/mips/dl-lookup.c, and this needs eglibc rtld debug support. So if you want to build minimal image for mips, please put "libc-rtld-debug" to DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC.

Introduction

A core run-time component of any Linux-based system is the C standard library. The C standard library (otherwise referred to as "libc" in this wiki page) contains a collection of headers and library routines used to implement operations (I/O and string handling, for example) in the C programming language. There are numerous implementations of libc. GNU libc (glibc) is ubiquitous while other libcs, in particular embedded glibc (eglibc) is designed for embedded systems.

eglibc strives to be source and binary compatible with glibc. eglibc's goals include reduced footprint, configurable components, better support for cross-compilation and cross-testing. In particular, eglibc's component configuration system allows embedded developers to build customized versions of the library that include only the features their application uses, reducing its space requirements.

Yocto provides eglibc's component configuration system by commit fbc60cc5ba2284bfcaea8c82001a49b7795cc2a2

This wiki page try to describe how to use eglibc component configuration system to create a really minimal image based on Yocto core-image-minimal.

eglibc component configuration system

eglibc's component configuration system categorizes the library's functions into "option groups", and allows you to include or exclude option groups individually. Some option groups depend on others; eglibc tracks these relationships, and ensures that the selected configuration yields a functioning library.

eglibc currently provides 38 option groups, documented in the file 'option-groups.def' in eglibc source code. Yocto support eglibc component configuration system in meta/recipes-core/eglibc/eglibc-options.inc, and provides distro features corresponding to eglibc configurable options there. It checks DISTRO_FEATURES whether contain the option then set it to Y or N in the ${B}/option-groups.config.

meta-yocto/conf/local.conf.sample.extended has a sample to enable all the eglibc configurable options. You should define DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC and DISTRO_FEATURES in your own conf/local.conf, and set the options what you want to enable in DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC.

For example, write the following line to your conf/local.conf to only enable OPTION_EGLIBC_LIBM,

DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC = "libc-libm"

DISTRO_FEATURES = "alsa bluetooth ext2 irda pcmcia usbgadget usbhost wifi nfs zeroconf pci ${DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC}"

Then you can build eglibc.

Dependencies

Current build core-image-minimal image need enable the following 15 options list in the following table. And the table show the dependecies between these eglibc component configuration system and Yocto core-image-minimal installed packages.

eglibc configuration option Required by
libc-libm gcc-runtime busybox

Process

Packages list

core-image-minimal

Walk through the meta/recipes-core/image/core-image-minimal.bb, and we'll see: IMAGE_INSTALL = "task-core-boot ${ROOTFS_PKGMANAGE_BOOTSTRAP}"

Looking at file meta/recipes-core/tasks/task-core-boot.bb: 

 RDEPENDS_task-core-boot = "\
   base-files \
   base-passwd \
   busybox \
   initscripts \
   ${@base_contains("MACHINE_FEATURES", "keyboard", "keymaps", "", d)} \
   modutils-initscripts \
   netbase \
   sysvinit \
   tinylogin \
   udev \
   ${VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_update-alternatives} \
   ${MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RDEPENDS}"

 RRECOMMENDS_task-core-boot = "\
   ${MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS}"

Then we disable all network related packages, drop "keymaps", netbase, tinylogin and update-alternatives, use busybox init replace sysvinit, use busybox mdev replace udev.

Leaving: 

   base-files \
   base-passwd \
   busybox \
   initscripts \
   modutils-initscripts

by using patch task-core-boot_minimal.patch

init script

When boot image, it doesn't mount /proc /sys and doesn't create devices under /dev(Yocto #1210). The following patch busybox-mount_proc.patch is to fix this:

perf

perf requires python perl elfutils as runtime dependency, but we don't need perf in minimal image, so drop them.

elfutils

When build linux-yocto(perf) will need libelf, so patch to elfutils only build libelf and remove depency "gettext"

Result

We only enabled eglibc "libc-libm libc-crypt libc-posix-regexp(perf requires it)" by adding one line to local configuration file, default is build/conf/local.conf: 

 DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC = "libc-libm libc-crypt libc-posix-regexp"

and then build minimal image: 

 bitbake core-image-minimal

At last we will get the rootfs image looks like "core-image-minimal-mpc8315e-rdb-20110621065105.rootfs.tar.bz2", it takes 2.9M disk space after extraction.

Update

eglibc

Commit f0cd776e in Jul 8 2011 add dependency bash to eglibc, and bash depends on

  • ncurse： ncurse requires eglibc option libc-posix-wchar-io
  • gettext： requires libc-spawn libc-locale-code and libc-getlogin

So right now we have two choice:

  1. put "libc-posix-wchar-io libc-spawn libc-locale-code libc-getlogin" to DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC in conf/local.conf, then you could succeed to build eglibc.
  2. remove the dependency bash from eglibc by patch

Then we can get the previous result.

bus-native

Commit 9d086cd1519b95bff27ca1cda4555ffae92c5ce3 on Fri Oct 21, 2011

inherit a new class useradd, then import dependency shadow which need eglibc provides more options. So remove useradd from inheritance.

MIPS

Another update is about mips. Because the code to support mips architecture use macro "GLRO(dl_debug_mask)" in file ports/sysdeps/mips/dl-lookup.c, and this needs eglibc rtld debug support. So if you want to build minimal image for mips, please put "libc-rtld-debug" to DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC.
