I suspect it was because the child exec code's parent was doing the
initial lookups, then forking, then doing other things (possibly trashing
the static data in the getpw*() buffer), then attempting to dereference
*pwd and *lc. Also, no error checking appeared to be done - I've allowed
it to fall back to the old "become user" code on critical failure rather than
risk running a user's cron jobs as root.
to by anyone.
While I was at it, I changed all of the mailing list addresses to be
consistent with how they are referenced in the handbook. E.g
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG instead of bugs@FreeBSD.ORG.
Closes PR# 2791
Added obsolete option GATEWAY so that kern_opt.c gets tested.
Added undocumented options LOCKF_DEBUG and SIMPLELOCK_DEBUG so
that these options get tested. The addition of LOCKF_DEBUG shows
that all of kern/kern_lockf.c shouldn't have been moved from ufs.
The debugging parts are very fs-dependent.
. properly declare the variable in in a .h file, as opposed to
using a private extern declaration in userconfig.c;
. move the definition of EISA_SLOTS and therefore the inclusion of
opt_eisa.h into eisaconf.c.
something closer to how we used to do it. The Lite2 way is to check the
"fsclean" flag in the superblock and stop there if so (during preen).
We now do the various superblock sanity checks that we used to do before
since it's cheap. We now get the filesystem state summary again instead
of "FILESYSTEM CLEAN; CHECKING SKIPPED" (or whatever).
Accept SIGHUP as a "re-open logfile" signal. As ppp
doesn't set it's serial line to it's controlling terminal,
we can use HUP :)
This is a candidate for 2.2. The log.[ch] changes won't
conflict, but the main.c changes will. We just want to change the
kill(...,SIGHUP) to a SIGTERM and change the signal(SIGHUP,Hangup)
to a pending_signal(SIGHUP,LogReOpen).
These changes should fix the signal "problems" in ppp.
The signal changes should really be put into 2.2 too !
The following patches should do it. There were some other
changes made by Andrey recently that havn't been brought
into 2.2, it may be worth doing them now.
2. fix a potential buffer oflow,
3. makes watch(8) conform to sysexits(3).
Not a strong 2.2 candidate even if it would be nice.

Back out a dubious Lite2 change to "optimise" getcwd() to look at $PWD
because it's potentially dangerous (think: symlink races). Move
realpath() back to it's original location, and remove getcwd_physical()
by renaming it back to getcwd() and zapping the original getcwd wrapper.
