makedir() swallows EEXIST, so the chmod branch for directories that already existed never ran, while chown() ran every time. On finix /var/empty is immutable, which gave a warning on every boot even though the owner was already correct. mksubsys() is the original of this code and has the same shape, the dbus plugin uses it for /tmp/dbus. Both now go through dirperm(), which opens the directory and uses fstat/fchmod/fchown on the fd, changing only what differs. A failed chown in mksubsys() is a warning now rather than err(1), PID 1 should not exit over a directory it cannot adjust. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>
Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
