The sender domain has a DMARC Reject/Quarantine policy which disallows
sending mailing list messages using the original "From" header.

To mitigate this problem, the original message has been wrapped

Hello Felix,

During image generation, the host tools should not be used but the tools
from the staging_dir.

- mkfs.fat
- sed
- mmd
- mcopy
Why is this necessary? $STAGING_DIR_HOST/bin should already be in
$PATH before the host system parts.

I only noticed that the prefix $(STAGING_DIR_HOST) is missing for these
tools on x86_64 image Makefile.
If I look for this prefix in OpenWrt, it is found in some image
Makefiles commands.

For examples:
-
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/realtek/image/Makefile
-
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/bcm63xx/image/Makefile
-
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/ath25/image/Makefile


If this is in the PATH through this line
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/Makefile, then this is
not needed for the others?

I only wanted to unify this with the change and make it clear that the
tool from staging is used here.
Thanks. I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other, but I
think the code might be more readable without the explicit
$(STAGING_DIR_HOST)/bin prefix.

Your right It works regardless of whether the prefix is there or not.
But I would just like to note that it is easier to see whether the
tools are now used from staging or the build host.
The tool mkisofs
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/x86/image/Makefile#L100,
for example, is used from the build host!
There is indeed a guard here
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/x86/Makefile.
But I am not sure if this is the case everywhere and if it is clear to
everyone which tool is now being used during development.
I just wanted to say that I am more in favor of explicitly select
which tool is now being used.


I think the actual tool used should be in a variable, like $(STAGING_HOST_SED). This is very readable and it also makes the list of tools used explicitly known. The PATH must still be set for tools to find other staging dir tools.

Actually, the host path should be unset to avoid inadvertently using the host tools instead of the one of the staging dir. I personally would prefer using a chroot-ed staging host to avoid any host interference.

Regards,

Bas.
