builtin-busybox's Introduction

Magisk built-in BusyBox

Description

Systemless Magisk module to install BusyBox binary with its applets (UNIX/Linux command-line utilities). BusyBox and applets are installed by and symlinked to the Magisk built-in busybox binary. For more info, see: https://github.com/topjohnwu/ndk-busybox

Tip: For even more interesting applets, install also the ToyBox-Ext module: https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Alt-Repo/ToyBox-Ext

TEST

Install the module and reboot. Use Terminal Emulator - BusyBox applets are for Terminal and shell scripts.

Make sure that /system/bin and /system/xbin (the latter might not available on some devices) are in the PATH. Check e.g. with (all commands are case sensitive):

su
echo $PATH

Check if busybox was properly installed and is it installed to /system/xbin or /system/bin:

busybox --help
which busybox

If the responded busybox path was /system/xbin then check:

ls -l /system/xbin | grep busybox

whereas if the busybox path was /system/bin then use:

ls -l /system/bin | grep busybox

The command will show all the busybox applets as installed (symlinked to the busybox binary). Usually, whois will be one of them, hence you can try:

whois --help
busybox whois --help

builtin-busybox's Issues

[Q&A] How to uninstall `busybox`?

I have installed this module and after noticing that RootBeer Sample detects root via BusyBox checking I decided to uninstall it but unfortunately this module doesn't include BusyBox removal and I can't manually remove BusyBox.
So question: How can I remove busybox from /system/xbin?

Re-write module for KernelSU?

Hi zgfg. I just switched to a new ROM which is based on KernelSU. Everything (!) runs perfectly, the only thing missing is busybox. Sure I could install a static binary like the one by osm0sis, but - as per https://kernelsu.org/guide/module.html#busybox:

KernelSU ships with a feature complete BusyBox binary (including full SELinux support). Its BusyBox is now using the binary file compiled directly from the Magisk project. Thanks to Magisk! Therefore, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues between BusyBox scripts in Magisk and KernelSU because they are exactly the same!

The executable is located at /data/adb/ksu/bin/busybox

Is there any chance you can adapt your script so we can install it in KernelSU Manager? More and more ROMs switch to KernelSU, so I'm positive it would make a lot of sense 👍

Copy busybox to /system/(x)bin

Do not create symlink pointing to /data/adb/magisk/busybox, it will not accessible by non-root process or restricted root process (process with root access but limited capabilities such as zygote, adb root, ...). Instead copying busybox to $MODPATH/system/bin and create symlink pointing to ./busybox instead. The context of busybox also must be u:object_r:system_file:s0 not u:object_r:adb_data_file:s0.
