3595e36294 workaround for huge musl binaries 
something in our configuration is causing gcc to generate binaries
in excess of 68K for "hello world". hardeningDisable seems to stop it
doing that, turning it on for s6 which writes _lots_ of binaries
but would be good to get to the bottom of this

65dfbad365 systemconfig: chown files if uid/gid > 0 2023-04-15 22:53:28 +01:00
Daniel Barlow
5dd0c6e3c0 rewrite preinit as very small C program 
By using the kernel "nolibc" header to avoid requiring a C library, we
can bring the initramfs size to around 4k

This does involve a tiny bit of inline mips assembly which I'm not
sure about. gcc seems unwilling to generate the code to load $gp at
function entry of main(), so we do it by hand - but I'd rather find
out why gcc doesn't.

1cc0b13b57 rewrite systemconfig in C and link statically 
systemconfig (a.k.a "activate") is run from the initramfs. Converting
it from a shell script to an executable means it doesn't depend on
there being a shell in the initramfs
