b06ebb3255 Implement two new keywords and status flags for entries in /etc/ttys;
TTY_NETWORK (network), TTY_DIALUP (dialup), which determine a basic
connection type. TTY_DIALUP in particular will replace the old out of
date heuristic "tty[dD]*" in login.c (and better than the current
hard-coded method).

5d00c0a499 Honor the nouser/nogroup flag when determing if NULL should
be returned if a cached uid/gid does not exist in the password
file.

Mike Pritchard
1595890a1f The user_from_{uid,gid} routines would return garbage if the
uid/gid in question was in the cache, but did not exist
in the password file.  This causes the -nouser and -nogroup
options to find(1) to only print the first file owned by
an unknown user/group in some cases.

cf49f43912 Add backward compatibility so that static executables built on
modern FreeBSD systems will syslog properly on older systems that
still name the logging socket "/dev/log".  This includes pre-2.2
versions of FreeBSD as well as BSD/OS systems.  If the connect to
"/var/run/log" fails, the function now tries to connect to
"/dev/log" as a fallback.

098f04f5d1 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.

cdd42308ce Enabled the Lite2 getvfsbyname(). It's actually named new_getvfsbyname()
for now so that we don't lose library compatibility.  Applications should
define _NEW_VFSCONF and use getvfsbyname() instead of new_getvfsbyname()
if they want the new vfsconf interface.  Parts of the old interface
(enough to load vfs modules, I hope) are still available.

1d2493ff77 Small yet significant tweaks/cleanups:
- getpwent:
  o adjunctbuf should be NUL terminated after copying
  o _pw_breakout_yp() needs to know the length of the buffer returned
    from YP so it can properly NUL terminate its local buffer.

- getgrent:
  o YP buffers should be YPMAXRECORD + 2 bytes long and NUL terminated.
    (Previously they were hardcoded to 1024 bytes.)

- getnetgrent:
  o YP data should be copied with snprintf(), not sprintf()

These are 2.2 candidates. I will wait a few days to make sure these don't
break anything and then, if there are no objections, move them to the 2.2
branch.

ebddb6b4fe Use dynamic allocated buffers instead static buffers. No member or
line length limit anymore - now 500 members or 5000 members are
possible. For security group lines longer than 256K will be count as
an error. 256K should be enough for 65536 users.

Support comments (lines that begin with a #) if compiled with
option -DGROUP_IGNORE_COMMENTS.

Fortunately it seems that all system utilities which use getgrent()
functions are dynamically linked executables. So you need only
rebuild libc.so.3.0 if you want this change. Note: if you have
an old X server which depend on libc.so.2.* you should rebuild
libc.so.2.* too.

Not a 2.2 candidate.

2be5d4cba8 Add support for detecting and hopefully using the passwd.adjunct.byname
NIS map which is present on SunOS NIS servers with the SunOS C2 security
hack^Woption installed. I'm convinced that the C2 security option restricts
access to the passwd.adjunct.byname map in the same way that I restrict
access to the master.passwd.{byname,buid} maps (checking for reserved ports),
which means that we should be able to handle passwd.adjunct.byname map
correctly.

If _havemaster() doesn't find a master.passwd.byname map, it will now
test for a passwd.adjunct.byname map before defaulting back to the
standard non-shadowed passwd.{byname,byuid} maps. If _pw_breakout_yp()
sees that the adjunct map was found and the password from the standard
maps starts with ##, it will try to grab the correct password field
from the adjunct map. As with the master.passwd maps, this only happens
if the caller is root, so the shadowing feature is preserved; non-root
users just get back ##username as the encrypted password.

Note that all we do is grab the second field from the passwd.adjunct.byname
entry, which is designated to be the real encrypted password. There are
other auditing fields in the entry but they aren't of much use to us.

Also switched back to using yp_order() to probe for the maps (instead
of yp_first()). The original problem with yp_order() was that it barfed
with NIS+ servers in YP compat mode since they don't support the
YPPROC_ORDER procedure. This condition is handled a bit more gracefully
in yplib now: we can detect the error and just punt on the probing.

Here are the diffs for libc_r to get it one step closer to P1003.1c
These make most of the thread/mutex/condvar structures opaque to the
user. There are three functions which have been renamed with _np
suffixes because they are extensions to P1003.1c (I did them for JAVA,
which needs to suspend/resume threads and also start threads suspended).

I've created a new header (pthread_np.h) for the non-POSIX stuff.

The egrep tags stuff in /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile that I uncommented
doesn't work. I think its best to delete it. I don't think libc_r needs
tags anyway, 'cause most of the source is in libc which does have tags.

also:

Here's the first batch of man pages for the thread functions.
The diff to /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile removes some stuff that was
inherited from /usr/src/lib/libc/Makefile that should only be done with
libc.

also:

I should have sent this diff with the pthread(3) man page.
It allows people to type

make -DWANT_LIBC_R world

to get libc_r built with the rest of the world. I put this in the
pthread(3) man page.  The default is still not to build libc_r.


also:
The diff attached adds a pthread(3) man page to /usr/src/share/man/man3.
The idea is that without libc_r installed, this man page will give people
enough info to know that they have to build libc_r.

88ce2dd1ef Very minor tweak:
In __initdb(), a failure to open the local password database is supposed
to result in a warning message being syslog()ed. This warning is only
supposed to be generated as long as the 'warned' flag hasn't been yet;
once the warning is generated, the flag should be set so that the message
is only syslog()ed once. However, while the state of the flag is checked
properly, the flag's state is never changed, so you always get multiple
warnings instead of just one.

94c53e1fb5 NIS cleanups and fixes, the next generation.
getnetgrent.c:

- Catch one bogon that snuck by: in _listmatch(), check for '\0'
  rather than '\n'; strings returned from yp_match() are terminated
  with a nul, not a newline.

getpwent.c:

- Rip out all of the +inclusion/-exclusion stuff from before and
  replace it with something a little less grotty. The main problem
  with the old mechanism was that it wasted many cycles processing
  NIS entries even after it already knew they were to be exlcuded
  (or not included, depending on your pointof view). The highlights
  of these changes include:

  o Uses an in-memory hash database table to keep track of all the
    -@netgroup, -user, and -@group exclusions.

  o Tries harder to duplicate the behavior normally obtained when using
    NIS inclusions/exclusions on a flat /etc/passwd file (meaning things
    come out in much the same order).

  o Uses seperate methods for handling getpwent() and getpwnam()/getpwuid()
    operations instead of trying to do everything with one general
    function, which didn't work as well as I thought it would.

  o Uses both getnetgrent() and innetgr() to try to save time where
    possible.

  o Use only one special token in the local password database
    (_PW_KEYYPBYNUM) instead of seperate tokens to mark + and -
    entries (and stop using the counter tokens too). If this new
    token doesn't exist, the code will make due with the standard
    _PW_KEYBYNUM token in order to support older databases that
    won't have the new token in them.

  All this is an attempt to make this stuff work better in environments
  with large NIS passwd databases.

cbe78b44aa Fix a few NIS-related bogons:
- Clear the _yp_innetgr flag immediately after calling setnetgrent() from
  innetgr(). We only need the flag set to temporarily alter setnetgrent()'s
  behavior. Previously, it was being cleared too late.

- When in NIS-only mode, innetgr() was wasting time doing unecessary
  extra processing after it had already found a match.

- Remember to free memory allocated by the NIS functions during innetgr()
  searches.

3948edc24c Another tweak/speedup pass:
- Fix buffer overflow problem once and for all: do away with the buffer
  copies to 'user' prior to calling _scancaches() and just pass a pointer
  to the buffer returned by yp_match()/yp_first()/yp_next()/whatever.
  (We turn the first ':' to a NUL first so strcmp() works, then change it
  back later. Submitted by Bill Fenner <fenner@parc.xerox.com> and
  tweaked slightly by me.

- Give _pw_breakout_yp() the 'more elegant solution' I promised way back when.
  Eliminate several copies to static buffers and replace them with just
  one copy. (The buffer returned by the NIS functions is at most
  YPMAXRECORD bytes long, so we should only need one static buffer of
  the same length (plus 2 for paranoia's sake).)

- Also in _pw_breakout_yp(): always set pw.pw_passwd to the username
  obtained via NIS regardless of what pw_fields says: usernames cannot
  be overridden so we have no choice but to use the name returned by
  NIS.

- _Again_ in _pw_breakout_yp(): before doing anything else, check that
  the first character of the NIS-returned buffer is not a '+' or '-'.
  If it is, drop the entry. (#define EXTRA_PARANOIA 1 :)

- Probe for the master.passwd.* maps once during __initdb() instead
  of doing it each time _getyppass() or _nextyppass() is called.

- Don't copy the NIS data buffers to static memory in _getyppass()
  and _nextyppass(): this is done in _pw_breakout_yp() now.

- Test against phkmalloc and phkmalloc/2 (TNG!) to make sure we're
  free()ing the yp buffers sanely.

- Put _havemaster(), _getyppass() and nextyppass() prototypes under
  #ifdef YP. (Somehow they ended up on the wrong side of the #endif.)

- Remove unused variable ___yp_only.

eb6c139019 Some NIS bug stomping:
- In some cases, we don't properly resolve _all_ possible group memberships.
  If a user is a member of both local and NIS groups, we sometimes lose some
  of the membership info from NIS. (Reported by: Thorsten Kukuk
  <kukuk@uni-paderborn.de>)

- Make NIS +groupname overrides actually work the way the SunOS group(5)
  man page says they should (make them work for all cases: getgrent(),
  getgrnam() and getgrgid()).

- When not compiled with -DYP, grscan() should ignore entries that

  +groupname entries that don't refer to real NIS groups.

- Remove redundant redeclaration of fgets(), strsep() and index() inside

Note: -groupname exclusion as specified in the Sun documentation still
isn't supported. This'll be a 2.2 addition. Right now I just want this
stuff to work.

11e67a9f2e Fix the problem that I aroused with the last commit..
What was happening, is if syslogd was not running, syslog() would do
a strcat("\r\n") on a non-null-terminated buffer, and write it to the console.

This meant that sometimes extra characters could be written to the console
during boot, depending on the stack contents.

This totally avoids the potential problem by using writev() like the rest
of the does, and avoid modifying the buffer after the trouble we've gone to
to carefully protect it.

This is actually a trivial fix, in spite of the long commit message.. :-)
It only appeared during boot and shutdown with syslogd stopped.

7c8e2aa48c Fix security bugs with a "new approach", using stdio's powerful buffer
control hooks.
It is similar to an unrolled multi-part snprintf(), in that a "FILE *" is
attached to a string buffer.  There is also an optimisation for the case
where the syslog format string does not contain %m, which should improve
performance of "informational" logging, like from ftpd.

400b841301 getgrent.c: adjust _nextypgroup() slightly so that it continues processing
the group map after encountering a badly formatted entry.

getpwent.c: same as above for _nextyppass(), and also turn a couple of
sprintf()s into snprintf()s to avoid potential buffer overruns. (The
other day I nearly went mad because of a username in my NIS database
that's actually 9 characters long instead of 8. Stuffing a 9-character
username into an 8-character buffer can do some strange things.)

(This reminds me: I hope somebody's planning to fix the buffer overrun
security hole in syslog(3) before 2.1 ships.)

getgrent.c: be a little more SunOS-ish. Make it look like the NIS
group map is 'inserted' at the the point(s) where the magic NIS '+'
entry/entries appear.

getgrent: fix a file descriptor leak: remember to close the netgroup
file after we determine that we're using NIS-only innetgr() lookups.

1e890b056a Just when you thought it was safe...
- getnetgrent.c: address some NIS compatibility problems. We really need
to use the netgroup.byuser and netgroup.byhost maps to speed up innetgr()
when using NIS. Also, change the NIS interaction in the following way:

If /etc/netgroup does not exist or is empty (or contains only the
NIS '+' token), we now use NIS exclusively. This lets us use the
'reverse netgroup' maps and is more or less the behavior of other
platforms.

If /etc/netgroup exists and contains local netgroup data (but no '+').
we use only lthe local stuff and ignore NIS.

If /etc/netgroup exists and contains both local data and the '+',
we use the local data nd the netgroup map as a single combined
database (which, unfortunately, can be slow when the netgroup
database is large). This is what we have been doing up until now.

Head off a potential NULL pointer dereference in the old innetgr()
matching code.

Also fix the way the NIS netgroup map is incorporated into things:
adding the '+' is supposed to make it seem as though the netgroup
database is 'inserted' wherever the '+' is placed. We didn't quite
do it that way before.

(The NetBSD people apparently use a real, honest-to-gosh, netgroup.db
database that works just like the password database. This is
actually a neat idea since netgroups is the sort of thing that
can really benefit from having multi-key search capability,
particularly since reverse lookups require more than a trivial
amount of processing. Should we do something like this too?)

- netgroup.5: document all this stuff.

- rcmd.c: some sleuthing with some test programs linked with my own
version of innetgr() has revealed that SunOS always passes the NIS
domain name to innetgr() in the 'domain' argument. We might as well
do the same (if YP is defined).

- ether_addr.c: also fix the NIS interaction so that placing the
'+' token in the /etc/ethers file makes it seem like the NIS
ethers data is 'inserted' at that point. (Chances are nobody will
notice the effect of this change, which is just te way I like it. :)

e0ee807b3d Fix for a potential problem reported by a user I bumped into on IRC
last night:

_gr_breakout_yp() doesn't check for badly formatted NIS group entries.
For example, a bogus entry like this:

bootp::user1,user2,user3

will lead to a null pointer dereference and a SEGV (note that the GID
field is missing -- this results in one of the strsep(&result, ":")
returning NULL). The symtpom of this problem is programs dumping
core left and right the moment you add a + entry to /etc/group.
Note that while this is similar to an earlier bug, it's caused by a
different set of circumstances.

The fix is to check for the NULL pointers and have _gr_breakout_yp()
punt and return a failure code if it catches one. This is more or
less the behavior of SunOS: if a bad NIS group entry is encountered,
it's silently ignored. I don't think our standard (non-NIS) group
parsing code behaves the same way. It doesn't crash though, so I'm
citing the 'it ain't broken, don't fix it' rule and leaving it alone.

I'll probably have to add similar checks to _pw_breakout_yp() in
getpwent.c to ward off the same problems. It's rare that bad NIS
map entries like this occur, but we should handle them gracefully
when they do.

dbf973c0c7 Fixes for PR #508 and #509 ('botched 'Bad netgroup' error message' and
'cycle in netgroup check too greedy').

PR #508 is apparently due to an inconsistency in the way the 4.4BSD
netgroup code deals with bad netgroups. When 4.4BSD code encounters
a badly formed netgroup entry (e.g. (somehost,-somedomain), which,
because of the missing comma between the '-' and 'somedomain,' has
only 2 fields instead of 3), it generates an error message and
then bails out without doing any more processing on the netgroup
containing the bad entry. Conversely, every other *NIX in the world
that usees netgroups just tries to parse the entry as best it can
and then silently continues on its way.

The result is that two bad things happen: 1) we ignore other valid entries
within the netgroup containing the bogus entry, which prevents
us from interoperating with other systems that don't behave this way,
and 2) by printing an error to stderr from inside libc, we hose certain
programs, in this case rlogind. In the problem report, Bill Fenner
noted that the 'B' from 'Bad' was missing, and that rlogind exited
immediately after generating the error. The missing 'B' is apparently
not caused by any problem in getnetgrent.c; more likely it's getting
swallowed up by rlogind somehow, and the error message itself causes
rlogind to become confused. I was able to duplicate this problem and
discovered that running a simple test program on my FreeBSD system
resulted in a properly formatted (if confusing) error, whereas triggering
the error by trying to rlogin to the machine yielded the missing 'B'
problem.

Anyway, the fixes for this are as follows:

- The error message has been reformatted so that it prints out more useful
  information (e.g. Bad entry (somehost,-somedomain) in netgroup "foo").
  We check for NULL entries so that we don't print '(null)' anymore too. :)

- Rearranged things in parse_netgrp()  so that we make a best guess at
  what bad entries are supposed to look like and then continue processing
  instead of bailing out.

- Even though the error message has been cleaned up, it's wrapped inside
  a #ifdef DEBUG. This way we match the behavior of other systems. Since we
  now handle the error condition better anyway, this error message becomes
  less important.

PR #507 is another case of inconsistency. The code that handles
duplicate/circular netgroup entries isn't really 'too greedy; -- it's
just too noisy. If you have a netgroup containing duplicate entries,
the code actually does the right thing, but it also generates an error
message. As with the 'Bad netgroup' message, spewing this out from
inside libc can also hose certain programs (like rlogind). Again, no
other system generates an error message in this case.

The only change here is to hide the error message inside an #ifdef DEBUG.
Like the other message, it's largely superfluous since the code handles
the condition correctly.

Note that PR #510 (+@netgroup host matching in /etc/hosts.equiv) is still
being investigated. I haven't been able to duplicate it myself, and I
strongly suspect it to be a configuration problem of some kind. However,
I'm leaving all three PRs open until I get 510 resolved just for the
sake of paranoia.
