/* Alias_irc.c intercepts packages contain IRC CTCP commands, and
changes DCC commands to export a port on the aliasing host instead
of an aliased host.
For this routine to work, the DCC command must fit entirely into a
single TCP packet. This will usually happen, but is not
guaranteed.
The interception is likely to change the length of the packet.
The handling of this is copied more-or-less verbatim from
ftp_alias.c
Initial version: Eivind Eklund <perhaps@yes.no> (ee) 97-01-29

Version 2.1: May, 1997 (cjm)
Very minor changes to conform with
local/global/function naming conventions
withing the packet alising module.

Summer of Code 2005: improve libalias - part 1 of 2 With the first part of my previous Summer of Code work, we get: -made libalias modular: -support for 'particular' protocols (like ftp/irc/etcetc) is no more hardcoded inside libalias, but it's available through external modules loadable at runtime -modules are available both in kernel (/boot/kernel/alias_*.ko) and user land (/lib/libalias_*) -protocols/applications modularized are: cuseeme, ftp, irc, nbt, pptp, skinny and smedia -added logging support for kernel side -cleanup After a buildworld, do a 'mergemaster -i' to install the file libalias.conf in /etc or manually copy it. During startup (and after every HUP signal) user land applications running the new libalias will try to read a file in /etc called libalias.conf: that file contains the list of modules to load. User land applications affected by this commit are ppp and natd: if libalias.conf is present in /etc you won't notice any difference. The only kernel land bit affected by this commit is ng_nat: if you are using ng_nat, and it doesn't correctly handle ftp/irc/etcetc sessions anymore, remember to kldload the correspondent module (i.e. kldload alias_ftp). General information and details about the inner working are available in the libalias man page under the section 'MODULAR ARCHITECTURE (AND ipfw(4) SUPPORT)'. NOTA BENE: this commit affects _ONLY_ libalias, ipfw in-kernel nat support will be part of the next libalias-related commit. Approved by: glebius Reviewed by: glebius, ru

/* Notes:
[Note 1]
The initial search will most often fail; it could be replaced with a 32-bit specific search.
Such a search would be done for 32-bit unsigned value V:
V ^= 0x01010101; (Search is for null bytes)
if( ((V-0x01010101)^V) & 0x80808080 ) {
(found a null bytes which was a 01 byte)
}
To assert that the processor is 32-bits, do
extern int ircdccar[32]; (32 bits)
extern int ircdccar[CHAR_BIT*sizeof(unsigned int)];
which will generate a type-error on all but 32-bit machines.
[Note 2] This routine really ought to be replaced with one that
creates a transparent proxy on the aliasing host, to allow arbitary
changes in the TCP stream. This should not be too difficult given
this base; I (ee) will try to do this some time later.
