accidentally clobber the server address if a stray packet arrived
at the client port. This would result in any further retransmits
going to the wrong address.
For now, fix this by not saving the source address of the reply; this
matches the pre-tirpc behaviour.
RPC clients hanging. The real problem turned out to be missing
cleanup code; this was fixed in clnt_vc.c r1.5 and clnt_dg.c r1.4.

to make asynchronous RPCs. This is needed to help fix ypbind, which can no
longer override the clnt_dg_call() method (formerly the clntudp_call()
method) due to all the internal descriptor locking code in TI-RPC. Turning
on this flag allows us to send an RPC request, then return immediately,
and handle a reply later, rather than being forced to do the request
and reply in a single function call.
Also fix a byte ordering bug: when clnt_dg_call() increments the XID
prior to transmitting a request, it uses the raw value, which is wrong.
The XID is stored in network byte order, i.e. big-endian. The CLSET_XID
and CLGET_XID commands in clnt_dg_control() use ntohl()/htonl() to get
the byte ordering right, but because clnt_dg_call() does not do this,
using CLSET_XID/CLGET_XID doesn't actually work, unless you're on a
big endian host, which we aren't (yet). Fix clnt_dg_call() to byte swap
properly when doing the increment.
associated changes that had to happen to make this possible as well as
bugs fixed along the way.
Bring in required TLI library routines to support this.
Since we don't support TLI we've essentially copied what NetBSD
has done, adding a thin layer to emulate direct the TLI calls
into BSD socket calls.
This is mostly from Sun's tirpc release that was made in 1994,
however some fixes were backported from the 1999 release (supposedly
only made available after this porting effort was underway).
The submitter has agreed to continue on and bring us up to the
1999 release.
Several key features are introduced with this update:
Client calls are thread safe. (1999 code has server side thread
safe)
Updated, a more modern interface.
Many userland updates were done to bring the code up to par with
the recent RPC API.
There is an update to the pthreads library, a function
pthread_main_np() was added to emulate a function of Sun's threads
library.
While we're at it, bring in NetBSD's lockd, it's been far too
long of a wait.
New rpcbind(8) replaces portmap(8) (supporting communication over
an authenticated Unix-domain socket, and by default only allowing
set and unset requests over that channel). It's much more secure
than the old portmapper.
Umount(8), mountd(8), mount_nfs(8), nfsd(8) have also been upgraded
to support TI-RPC and to support IPV6.
Umount(8) is also fixed to unmount pathnames longer than 80 chars,
which are currently truncated by the Kernel statfs structure.
