//config:   bool "cttyhack"
//config:   default y
//config:   help
//config:     One common problem reported on the mailing list is the "can't
//config:     access tty; job control turned off" error message, which typically
//config:     appears when one tries to use a shell with stdin/stdout on
//config:     /dev/console.
//config:     This device is special - it cannot be a controlling tty.
//config:
//config:     The proper solution is to use the correct device instead of
//config:     /dev/console.
//config:
//config:     cttyhack provides a "quick and dirty" solution to this problem.
//config:     It analyzes stdin with various ioctls, trying to determine whether
//config:     it is a /dev/ttyN or /dev/ttySN (virtual terminal or serial line).
//config:     On Linux it also checks sysfs for a pointer to the active console.
//config:     If cttyhack is able to find the real console device, it closes
//config:     stdin/out/err and reopens that device.
//config:     Then it executes the given program. Opening the device will make
//config:     that device a controlling tty. This may require cttyhack
//config:     to be a session leader.
//config:
//config:     Example for /etc/inittab (for busybox init):
//config:
//config:     ::respawn:/bin/cttyhack /bin/sh
//config:
//config:     Starting an interactive shell from boot shell script:
//config:
//config:     setsid cttyhack sh
//config:
//config:     Giving controlling tty to shell running with PID 1:
//config:
//config:     # exec cttyhack sh
//config:
//config:     Without cttyhack, you need to know exact tty name,
//config:     and do something like this:
//config:
//config:     # exec setsid sh -c 'exec sh </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1'
//config:
//config:     Starting getty on a controlling tty from a shell script:
//config:
//config:     # getty 115200 $(cttyhack)
