Code to allow Linux Threads to run under FreeBSD.
By default not enabled
This code is dependent on the conditional
COMPAT_LINUX_THREADS (suggested by Garret)
This is not yet a 'real' option but will be within some number of hours.
<kvm.h> is self-sufficient again.
Moved typedefs and forward struct declarations out of __BEGIN_DECLS/
__END_DECLS.
Don't comment out the prototype for kvm_uread(). This was a 4 year
old kludge for previous breakage of self-sufficiency. The prototypwe
was broken instead.
Fixed bitrot (const poisoning) in the type of kvm_uread().
Fixed order of the declaration of kvm_uread().
fixes a type mismatch in the call to kvm_uread(). The bug has gone
undetected for almost 3 years because kvm_uproc()'s protoype has been
disabled for almost 4 years.
Trust sysctlbyname() to work properly if it succeeds.
Fixed style bugs in revs. 1.19 and 1.22.
an unimprovement here. I thought it would be an improvement, as in libkvm,
but here we can access the strings directly.
Use sysctlbyname() instead of sysctl() and trust it to give a nonzero
address if it succeeds.
Brucify the Makefile.
Differentiate atime and mtime in fetch*Stat().
Fix a few pointer bugs.
Tweak some error messages.
Don't #include sys/param.h and stdio.h in fetch.h.
Document that sys/param.h and stdio.h must be #included before fetch.h.
Add bounds checking to netbios NS packet resolving code. This should
prevent natd from crashing on badly formed netbios packets (as might be
heard when the machine is sitting on a cable modem or certain DSL
networks), and also closes potential security holes that might have
exploited the lack of bounds checking in the previous version of the
code.
the PAM modules.
Fix the comments describing the PAM dependencies to be consistent
with other related comments.
Restructure the library-building loop slightly, per suggestion from
bde.
modules for FreeBSD's standard authentication methods. Although
the Linux-PAM modules are present in the contrib tree, we don't
use any of them.
The main library "libpam" is composed of sources taken from three
places. First are the standard Linux-PAM libpam sources from the
contrib tree. Second are the Linux-PAM "libpam_misc" sources, also
from the contrib tree. In Linux these form a separate library.
But as Mike Smith pointed out to me, that seems pointless, so I
have combined them into the libpam library. Third are some additional
sources from the "src/lib/libpam" tree with some common functions
that make it easier to write modules. Those I wrote myself.
