[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/3] core/pkg-infra: allow packages to provide permisions in a file

[Yann E. MORIN]

Hello All!

This series is a quick proof-of-concpet to allow packages to provide a
permission table in a file rather than in-line in the .mk fiile.

That permission file can be generated. It is usefull for the SELinux
stuff and busybox, where individual applets should have a suid bit, but
we only know what applets exist at configure time, not when parsing the
.mk file.

This is RFC material, jsut for quick review of the concept, not the
actual code. This is not meant to be applied now.


Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
