- Moved to a more client-driven model. We aggressively attempt to keep
the default domain bound (as before) but we give up on non-default
domains if we lose contact with a server and fail to get a response
after one round of broadcasting. This helps drastically reduce the
amount of network bandwitdh that ypbind consumes: if a client references
the secondary domain at some later point, this will prod ypbind into
establishing a new binding anyway, so continuously broadcasting without
need is pointless.
Note that we still actively seek out a binding for our default domain
even if no client program has queried us yet. I'm not exactly sure if
this matches SunOS's behavior or not, but I decided to do it this way
since we can get into all sorts of trouble if our default domain comes
unbound. Even so, we're still much quieter than we used to be.
- Removed a bunch of no-longer pertinent comments and a couple of
chunks of #ifdef 0'ed code that no longer fit in to the new layout.
- Theo deRaadt must have become frustrated with the callback mechanism
in clnt_broadcast(), because he shamelessly stole the clnt_broadcast()
code right out of the RPC library and hacked it up to suit his needs.
(Comments and all! :)
I can understand why: clnt_broadcast() blocks while awaiting replies.
Changing this behavior requires surgery. However, you can work around
this: fork the broadcast into a child process and relay the results
back to the parent via a pipe. (Careful obervation has shown that the
SunOS ypbind forks children for broadcasting too, though I can only
guess what sort of interprocess communication it uses. pipe() seems to
do the job well enough.)
This may seem like the long way around, but it's not really that
hard to implement, and I'd prefer to use documented RPC library functions
wherever possible. We're careful to limit the number of simultaneous
broadcasters to avoid swamping the system (the current limit is 5).
Each clnt_broadcast() call only sends out a small number of packets
at increasing intervals. We're also careful not to spawn more than one
bradcaster for a given domain.
- Used clntudp_bufcreate() and clnt_call() to implement a ping()
function for directly querying a particular server so that we can
check if it's still alive. This lets me completely remove the old
bradcasting code and use actual RPC library calls instead, at the
cost of more than a few handfulls of torn-out hair. (Make no mistake
folks: I *HATE* RPC.) Currently, the ping interval is one minute.
- Fixed another potential 'nfds too big for select()' bug: use
_rpc_dtablesize() instead of getdtablesize().
- Quieted gcc -Wall a bit.
- Probably a bunch of other stuff that I've forgotten.
ypbind.8:
- Updated man page to reflect modifications.
ypwhich.c:
- Small mind-o fix from last time: decode error results from
ypbind correctly (*groan*)
yplib.c:
- same as above
- Change behavior of _yp_dobind() a little: if we get back a 'Domain
not bound' error for a given domain, retry a few times before giving
up and passing the error back to the caller. We have to sleep for a
few seconds between tries since the 'Domain not bound' error comes
back immediately (by repeatedly looping, we end up pounding on ypbind).
We retry at most 20 times at 5 second intervals. This gives us a full
minute to get a response. This seems to deviate a bit from SunOS
behavior -- it appears to wait forever -- but I don't like the idea
of perpetually hanging inside a library call.
Note that this should fix the problems some people have with bindings
not being established fast enough at boot time; sometimes amd is started
in /etc/rc after ypbind has run but before it gets a binding set up. The
automounter gets annoyed at this and tends to exit. By pausing ther YP
calls until a binding is ready, we avoid this situation.
- Another _yp_dobind() change: if we determine that our binding files
are unlocked or nonexistent, jump directly to code that pokes ypbind
into restablishing the binding. Again, if it fails, we'll time out
eventually and return.

ypbind.c: if a client program asks ypbind for the name of the server
for a particular domain, and there isn't a binding for that domain
available yet, ypbind needs to supply a status value along with its
failure message. Set yprespbody.ypbind_error before returning from
a ypbindproc_domain request.
yplib.c: properly handle the error status messages ypbind now has the
ability to send us. Add a ypbinderr_string() function to decode the
error values.

ypbind_status messages -- use ypbinderr_string instead.

If we make a YP request for a domain other than the default domain,
and there is no binding for the new domain yet, _yp_dobind() sees
that the /var/yp/binding/DOMAIN.VERS file for the unbound domain is
not locked (by ypbind) and from this it concludes that the NIS system
is dead, so it gives up.
This behavior has been changed: before giving up in this case, we now
make a second check to see if the binding file for the *default* domain
is also not locked. Only if the default domain binding file is also
unlocked to we now assume that ypbind has bought the farm and bail out.
(Note: this assumes that the user hasn't changed the default domain
while ypbind is running.)
With this change, _do_ypbind() is allowed to proceed into the next
section of code wherein it prods ypbind into establishing a binding
for the new domain. This first call times out after ten seconds,
after which it should retry and succeed. From then on, the binding
for the second domain should be handled normally.

o Change formatting to be more like that in <ctype.h> (with
extra parentheses as in the macros). Perhaps this file should
be machine generated or everything should be handled like
__tolower() so that no code is repeated.
nomacros.c:
o Instead of looking at _USE_CTYPE_INLINE_ to see what <ctype.h>
has done, set _EXTERNALIZE_CTYPE_INLINES_ to tell <ctype.h>
what to do, so that we don't have anything left to do. Note
that code is now generated even if inlines are used by default.
This allows users to switch to non-inline versions.
select() returns EINVAL if you try to feed it a value of FD_SETSIZE greater
that 256. You can apparently adjust this by specifying a larger value of
FD_SETSIZE when configuring your kernel. However, if you set the maximum
number of open file descriptors per process to some value greater than
the FD_SETSIZE value that select() expects, many selects() within the RPC
library code will be botched because _rpc_dtablesize() will return
invalid numbers. This is to say that it will return the upper descriptor
table size limit which can be much higher than 256. Unless select() is
prepared to expect this 'unusually' high value, it will fail. (A good
example of this can be seen with NIS enabled: if you type 'unlimit' at
the shell prompt and then run any command that does NIS calls, you'll
be bombarded with errors from clnttcp_create().)
A temporary fix for this is to clamp the value returned by _rpc_dtablesize()
at FD_SETSIZE (as defined in <sys/types.h> (256)). I suppose the Right
Thing would be to provide some mechanism for select() to dynamically
adjust itself to handle FD_SETSIZE values larger than 256, but it's a
bit late in the game for that. Hopefully 256 file descriptors will be enough
to keep RPC happy for now.

Have you been plagued by long waits when your NIS server is rebooted?
READ ON!
Sun has a patch, but the README says:
********************* WARNING ******************************
This is a new version of ypbind that never uses the NIS
binding file to cache the servers binding. This will have
the effect of fixing the current symptom. However, it might
degrade the overall performance of the system when the
server is available. This is most likely to happen on an
overloaded server, which will cause the network to produce
a broadcast storm.
*************************************************************
Therefor, I have produced another fix.
o What goes wrong.
When the NIS server is rebooted, ypserv will obtain different ports
to listen for RPC requests. All clients will continue to use the old
binding they obtained earlier. The NIS server will send ICMP dst unreachable
messages for the RPC requests that arrive at the old port. These ICMPs
are dropped on the floor and the client code will continue sending the
requests until the timer has expired. The small fix at the end of this
message will pick up these ICMP messages and deliver them to the RPC layer.
o Before and after.
I've tested this on some machines and this is the result:
(kill and restart ypserv on the server)
original% time ypmatch user passwd
user:....
0.040u 0.090s 2:35.64 0.0% 0+126k 0+0io 0pf+0w (155 seconds elapsed time)
fixedhost% time ypmatch user passwd
user:....
0.050u 0.050s 0:10.20 0.9% 0+136k 0+0io 0pf+0w (10 seconds elapsed time)
Rebinding is almost instantaneous.
o Other benefits.
RPC calls that use UDP as transport will no longer time out but
will abort much sooner. (E.g., the remote host is unreachable or
111/udp is filtered by an intermediate router)
Grrr. If the dbhash routines weren't grossly overengineered I wouldn't
even need to do this! :-(
Also now export the hash_stats routine. Manpage coming RSN - I promise.
Forms now have their own local bindings table so that anything
declared within a form is local to that form. This means you can
have fields of the same name in different forms.
Added inlined attribute setting for strings e.g. "This is \bold bold"
Added entry and exit functions for fields.
1) Eliminate spaces and double ':'.
2) Remove duplicated capabilities from tc= expansion.
It is needed to not overflow historycal 1024 limit.
Add range check and return -1 if entry is too big instead
of corrupting user memory.
Make sure all arguments to the yp_*() functions are valid before sending
them off to the server. This is somewhat distressing: once again my
FreeBSD box brought down my entire network because of NIS bogosities.
I *think* the poor argument checking in this module is the cause, but
I still haven't been able to reproduce the exact series of events that
lead to the ypserv crashes. For now I've resorted to sticking my FreeBSD
box in a seprate domain. Hopefully a weekend of heavy testing will
uncover the problem.

remapping mechanism in the following manner: if given an entry +@foo
and there is no netgroup named 'foo,' try searching for a regular
user group called 'foo' and build the cache using the members of
group 'foo' instead. If both a netgroup 'foo' and a user group 'foo'
exist, the 'foo' netgroup takes precedence, since we're primarily
interested in netgroup matching anyway.
This allows access control schemes based on ordinary user groups
(which are also available via NIS) rather than netgroups, since
netgroups on some systems are limited in really brain-damaged ways.

It seems that an attempt to do a yp_match() (and possible yp_next())
on a null or empty key causes Sun's ypserv in SunOS 4.1.3 to exit
suddenly (and without warning). Our ypserv behaves badly in this
situation too, thoush it doesn't appear to crash. In any event, getpwent,
getnetgrent and yp_match() and yp_next() are now extra careful not to
accidentally pass on null or empty arguments.
Also made a small change to getpwent.c to allow +::::::::: wildcarding,
which I had disabled previously.
- Have the +@netgroup/-@netgroup caches handle the +user/-user cases too.
- Clean up getpwent() to take advantage of the improved +user/-user handling.

- In /usr/src/lib/libc/yp/yplib.c, function yp_first when clnt_call
fails with (r != RPC_SUCCESS) ysd->dom_vers should be set to 0! This
ensures that /var/yp/bindings/dom.vers will be read again on retry.
What happens now is that when our server is down and someone tries to
use yp they will continue to try until kingdom come. So:
if(r != RPC_SUCCESS) {
clnt_perror(ysd->dom_client, "yp_first: clnt_call");
ysd->dom_vers = -1;
^^^^ change to 0
goto again;
}
that everyone else does: you can now use +host/-host, +user,-user and
+@netgroup/-@netgroup in /etc/hosts.equiv, /.rhosts, /etc/hosts.lpd and
~/.rhosts. Previously, __ivaliduser would only do host/user matches,
which was lame. This affects all the r-commands, lpd, and any other
program/service that uses ruserok().
An example of the usefullness of this feature would be a hosts.equiv
file that looks like this:
+@equiv-hosts
Since the netgroup database can now be accessed via NIS, this lets you
set up client machines once and then never have to worry about them
again: all hosts.equiv changes can now be done through NIS. Once I
finish with getpwent.c, we'll be able to do similar wacky things
with login authentication too. (Our password field substitution
will finally be on par with everyone else's, and I'll finally be
able to fully integrate my FreeBSD machine into my network without

Today I discovered that rebuilding /usr/include completely from scratch
doesn't work, because the libss Makefile tries to install headers into
/usr/include/ss, which 'make includes' does not create. The result is that
the libss Makefile plants the header files in /usr/include as individual
files called 'ss,' with the second one overwriting the first, and the
third one overwriting the second. So instead of a directory called
/usr/include/ss, you end up with just one file called /usr/include/ss with
only the last header file in it. Check out /usr/include/ss on freefall
and you'll see what I mean.
I've modified the beforeinstall target in the libss Makefile to check
for the presence of the ${DESTDIR}/usr/include/lbss directory and to
create it if it isn't already there. Hopefully I did it right.

as an NIS client. The pw_breakout_yp routines that are used to populate the
_pw_passwd structire only do anything if the bits in the pw_fields member
_pw_passwd are cleared. Unfortunately, we can get into a state where
pw_fields has garbage in it right before the YP lookup functions are
called, which causes the breakout functions to screw up in a big way.
Here's how to duplicate the problem:
- Configure FreeBSD as an NIS client
- Log in as a user who's password database records reside only in
the NIS passwd maps.
- Type ps -aux
Result: your processes appear to be owned by 'root' or 'deamon.'
/bin/ls can exhibit the same problem.
The reason this happens:
- When ps(1) needs to match a username to a UID, it calls getpwuid().
- root is in the local password file, so getpwuid() calls __hashpw()
and __hashpw() populates the _pw_passwd struct, including the pw_fields
member. This happens before NIS lookups take place because, by coincidence,
ps(1) tends to display processes owned by root before it happens upon
a proccess owned by you.
- When your UID comes up, __hashpw() fails to find your entry in the
local password database, so it bails out, BUT THE BITS IN THE pw_fields
STRUCTURE OF _pw_passwd ARE NEVER CLEARED AND STILL CONTAIN INFORMATION
FROM THE PREVIOUS CALL TO __hash_pw()!!
- If we have NIS enabled, the NIS lookup functions are called.
- The pw_breakout_yp routines see that the pw_fields bits are set and
decline to place the data retrieved from the NIS passwd maps into the
_pw_passwd structure.
- getpwuid() returns the results of the last __hashpw() lookup instead
of the valid NIS data.
- Hijinxs ensue when user_from_uid() caches this bogus information and
starts handing out the wrong usernames.
AAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!
*Please* don't tell me I'm the only person to have noticed this.
Fixed by having __hashpw() check the state of pw_fields just before
bailing out on a failed lookup and clearing away any leftover garbage.

Updated the example for the new fib parser.
- FreeBSD's NIS server can supply a master.passwd map, which has
more fields in it than a standard passwd map, so we need a
_master_pw_breakout() fuction.
- When doing passwd map lookups, look for master.passwd.* by attempting
a _yp_first() on master.passwd.byname. If it exists, we're being served
by a FreeBSD NIS server and we should use this map.
- If we aren't the superuser, retrieve only the standard passwd maps.
If we're being served by a FreeBSD system, then the passwd map has
no passwords in it, and it won't serve us the master.passwd map unless
we're superuser anyway.
There's a small speed hit for the superuser inherent in the check for
the master.passwd map, but this lets us dynamically decide what to do
rather than rely on a non-standard config file somewhere. Since all
of this is bypassed for normal users, they shouldn't notice the
difference.
You can now specify separate attributes for selected/not selected
