1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

adc4fa336b More async resolver refinements:
- yp_main.c: Always add the resolver socket to the set of fds
  monitored by select(). It can happen that pending == 0 but we
  still have some data in the socket buffer from an old query.
  This way, the data will be flushed in a timely manner.

- yp_extern.h: remove proto for yp_dns_pending() since we don't need
  it anynmore.

- yp_server.c: call yp_async_lookup_name()/yp_async_lookup_addr()
  functions with the svc_req pointer as an arg instead of the xprt.
  (The svc_req struct includes a pointer to the transport handle,
  and it also has the service version number which the async DNS
  code will need. (see below))

- yp_dnslookup.c:

   o Nuke yp_dns_pending() since we don't need it anymore.
   o In yp_run_dnsq(), swallow up and ignore replies if no requests
     are pending or the ID doesn't match any of the IDs in the queue.
   o In yp_send_dns_reply(), we assume that we will always be
     replying to an NIS v2 client. While this will probably always
     be the case, we do support the v1 'match' procedure, and it
     has a different result struct than v2. For completeness,
     support replying to both NIS v1 and v2 clients.
   o Update the queue entry structure to include a member to
     keep track of the NIS version number.
   o Have yp_async_lookup_name/addr() extract the version number
     from the svc_req structure and save it with the queue entry
     for yp_send_dns_reply() to inspect later.
   o Add some comments.

180807d214 Big round o changes:
- yp_dblookup.c: Create non-DB specific database access functions.
  Using these allows access to the underlying database functions without
  needing explicit knowledge of Berkeley DB. (These are used only
  when DB_CACHE is #defined. Other programs that use the non-caching
  functions (yp_mkdb, ypxfr, yppush, rpc.yppasswdd) shouldn't notice
  the difference.)

- yp_dnslookup: Implement async DNS lookups. We send our own DNS
  requests using UDP and put the request in a queue. When the response
  arrives, we use the ID in the header to find the corresponsing queue
  entry and then send the response to the client. We can go about our
  business and handle other YP requests in the meantime. This way, we
  can deal with time consuming DNS requests without blocking and without
  forking.

- yp_server.c: Convert to using new non-DB-specific database access
  functions. This simplifies the code a bit and removes the need for
  this module to know anything about Berkeley DB. Also convert the
  ypproc_match_2_svc() function to use the async DNS lookup routines.

- yp_main.c: tweak yp_svc_run() to add the resolver socket to the
  set of descriptors monitored in the select() loop. Also add a
  timeout to select(); we may get stale DNS requests stuck in the
  queue which we want to invalidate after a while. If the timeout
  hits, we decrement the ttl on all pending DNS requests and nuke
  those requests that aren't handled before ttl hits zero.

- yp_extern.h: Add prototypes for new stuff.

- yp_svc_udp.c (new file): The async resolver code needs to be able
  to rummage around inside the RPC UDP transport handle in order to
  work correcty. There's basically one transport handle, and each time
  a request comes in, the transaction ID in the handle is changed.
  This means that if we queue a DNS request, then we handle some other
  unrelated requests, we will be unable to send the DNS response because
  the transaction ID and remote address of the client that made the DNS
  request will have been lost. What we need to do is save the client
  address and transaction ID in the queue entry for the DNS request,
  then put the transaction ID and address back in the transport handle
  when we're ready to reply. (And then we have to undo the change so
  as not to confuse any other part of the server.) The trouble is that
  the transaction ID is hidden in an opaque part of the transport handle,
  and only the code in the svc_udp module in the RPC library knows how
  to handle it. This file contains a couple of functions that let us
  read and set the transaction ID in spite of this. This is really a
  dirty trick and I should be taken out and shot for even thinking about
  it, but there's no other way to get this stuff to work.

- Makefile: add yp_svc_udp.c to SRCS.

4c69e7b9d5 Back out the non-forking YPPROC_ALL stuff. Whatever drugs I was doing
when I came up with this idea weren't strong enough to help me see it
through. If this was a self-contained application and I had complete
control over what data got sent through what socket and when, I might
be able to get everything to work right without blocking, but instead
I have RPC/XDR in between me and the socket layer, and they have their
own ideas about what to do.

Maybe one day I'll go totally mad and figure out the right way to do
this; in the meantime this mess goes on the back burner.

faf215c7ad This commit changes the YPPROC_ALL procecdure so that it handles requests
_without_ using fork().

The problem with YPPROC_ALL is that it transmits an entire map through
a TCP pipe as the result of a single RPC call. First of all, this requires
certain hackery in the XDR filter. Second, if the map being sent is
large, the server can end up spending lots of time in the XDR filter
sending to just the one client, while requests for other clients will
go unanswered.

My original solution for this was to fork() the request into a child
process which terminates after the map has been transmitted (or the
transfer is interrupted due to an error). This leaves the parent free
to handle other requests. But this solution is kind of lame: fork()
is relatively expensive, and we have to keep a cap on the number of
child processes to keep from swamping the system.

What we do now is grab control of the service transport handle and XDR
handle from the RPC library and send the records one at a time ourselves
instead of letting the RPC library do it. We send a record, then go
back to the svc_run() loop and select() on the socket. If select() says
we can still write data, we send the next record. Then we call
svc_getreqset() and handle other RPCs and loop around again. This way,
we can handle other RPCs between records.

We manage multiple YPPROC_ALL requests using a circular queue. When a
request is done, we dequeue it and destroy the handle. We also tag
each request with a ttl which is decremented whevever we run the queue
and a handle isn't serviced. This lets us nuke requests that have sat
idle for too long (if we didn't do this, we might run out of socket
descriptors.)

Now all I have to do is come up with an async resolver, and ypserv
won't need to fork() at all. :)

Note: these changes should not go into 2.2 unless they get a very
throrough shakedown before the final cutoff date.

4451976029 Add support for handling the YP_SECURE and YP_INTERDOMAIN keys from
any maps that may have them. If the YP_SECURE key is present, ypserv
will only allow access to the map from clients on reserved ports.
If the YP_INTERDOMAIN key is present, the server will do DNS lookups
for hostnames that it can't find in hosts.byname or hosts.byaddr.
This is the same as the -d flag (which is retained for backwards
compatibility) but it can be set on a per-map/per-domain basis.

Also modified /var/yp/Makefile to add YP_INTERDOMAIN to the hosts.*
maps and YP_SECURE to master.passwd.* maps by default.

b2264be812 Performance enhancements (I hope) and new stuff:
yp_dblookup.c:

- Implement database handle caching. What this means is that instead
  of opening and closing map databases for each request, we open a
  database and save the handle (and, if requested, the key index)
  in an array. This saves a bit of overhead on things like repeated
  YPPROC_NEXT calls, such as you'd get from getpwent(). Normally,
  each YPPROC_NEXT would require open()ing the database, seeking
  to the location supplied by the caller (which is time consuming with
  hash databases as the R_CURSOR flag doesn't work), reading the
  data, close()ing the database and then shipping the data off to
  the caller. The system call overhead is prohibitive, especially
  with very large maps. By caching the handle to an open database,
  we elimitate at least the open()/close() system calls, as well
  as the associated DB setup and tear-down operations, for a large
  percentage of the time. This improves performance substantially at
  the cost of consuming a little more memory than before.

  Note that all the caching support is surrounded by #ifdef DB_CACHE
  so that this same source module can still be used by other programs
  that don't need it.

- Make yp_open_db() call yp_validdomain(). Doing it here saves cycles
  when caching is enabled since a hit on the map cache list by
  definition means that the domain being referenced is valid.

- Also make yp_open_db() check for exhaustion of file descriptors,
  just in case.

yp_server.c:

- Reorganize things a little to take advantage of the database
  handle caching. Add a call to yp_flush_all() in ypproc_clear_2_svc().

- Remove calls to yp_validdomain() from some of the service procedures.
  yp_validdomain() is called inside yp_open_db() now, so procedures that
  call into the database package don't need to use yp_validdomain()
  themselves.

- Fix a bogosity in ypproc_maplist_2_svc(): don't summarily initiallize
  the result.maps pointer to NULL. This causes yp_maplist_free()
  to fail and leaks memory.

- Make ypproc_master_2_svc() copy the string it gets from the database
  package into a private static buffer before trying to NUL terminate it.
  This is necessary with the DB handle caching: stuffing a NUL into the
  data returned by DB package will goof it up internally.

yp_main.c:

- Stuff for DB handle caching: call yp_init_dbs() to clear the
  handle array and add call to yp_flush_all() to the SIGHUP
  signal handler.

Makefile.yp:

- Reorganize to deal with database caching. yp_mkdb(8) can now be used
  to send a YPPROC_CLEAR signal to ypserv(8). Call it after each map
  is created to refresh ypserv's cache.

- Add support for mail.alias map.
  Contributed by Mike Murphy (mrm@sceard.com).

- Make default location for the netgroups source file be /var/yp/netgroup
  instead of /etc/netgroup.

mkaliases:

- New file: script to generate mail.alias map.
  Contributed by Mike Murphy (mrm@sceard.com).

Makefile:

- Install Makefile.yp as /var/yp/Makefile.dist and link it to
  /var/yp/Makefile only if /var/yp/Makefile doesn't already exist.
  Suggested by Peter Wemm.

- Install new mkaliases script in /usr/libexec along with mknetid.

- Use somewhat saner approach to generating rpcgen-dependent files
  as suggested by Garrett Wollman.

f7f470a811 Add real securenets support. By default, ypserv now uses /var/yp/securenets
in the same was as the SunOS ypserv (same format, described in ypserv man
page). If the user wants tcpwrapper style access control, they can
recompile ypserv to use that instead. This way we get securenets without
having to ship libwrap.a and tcpd.h with core FreeBSD distribution.

If /var/yp/securenets doesn't exist, ypserv allows all connections.

77732bc551 A few small tweaks related to ypxfr:
- Add a ypxfr_callback() function that we can use to signal failure to
  yppush(8) in the event that we can't fork()/exec() ypxfr(8). yppush
  only checks the return status from YPPROC_XFR enough to determine
  that the RPC succeded: it relies on its callback service to figure
  out whether or not the transfer actually worked.

- Give yp_dblookup.c its own debug variable (ypdb_debug) so that DB
  access debugging messages can be turned on or off independent of the
  program's global debug messages.

- Have the Makefile rpcgen the ypushresp_xfr_1() client stub for us and
  nuke the unneeded rule for yp_xdr.c that I left in by mistake (the XDR
  filters live in libc now).

778c7b1c1c Import the new, non-GPL ypserv, written by yours truly. Functionally
equivalent to the old ypserv, except that it doesn't support the
-p [port] option to force the server to use a particular port.

The server stubs and yp.h header file are auto-generated from the yp.x
protocol definition file. The auto-generated XDR routines in libc/yp
are also used. The database access code has been broken out into a
seperate module so that other NIS utilities (ypxfr in particular)
can use it.

Note that the old mknetid script is being temporarily moved here; it
will be replaced by an mknetid program which will eventually have
a home under /usr/src/libexec. (The existing script is actually
somewhat broken -- it doesn't handle hosts -- but this isn't a big
deal at this point since the netid.byname map is really only useful
fopr Secure RPC, which we don't have yet.)
