more manageable and convenient referencing by login.conf (login
class database) and (e.g.) login.access.
This is the first of a group of commits which implements the login
class capabilities database.
suffering a bad case neglect for the last few years.
- Add full prototypes, including to function pointers.
- Make the wire protocols 64-bit type safe, eg: 32 bit quantities are
int32_t, not long. The orginal rpc code was implemented when an int
could be 16 bits.
Obtained from: a diff of FreeBSD vs. OpenBSD/NetBSD rpc code.
line with BSD/OS and Linux's username limits, making transitioning from
either operating system a lot easier than it is now. I'm currently
running with this change on my system, as are several others, and have
experienced no ill effects.
This is not for 2.2! This needs to get shaken out longer term in 3.0.

we use it in the uthreads implementation.
Moved enum pthread_mutextype here from libc_r/uthread/pthread_private.h.
Change prototype for pthread_getspecific().
support LD_HINTS_VERSION_2 that has the ldconfig pathname stored in the
ld.so.hints file (ie: a new library can be installed and used without
needing to run ldconfig -m first)

or __pure2 where it wasn't already done, except in math.h where use
of __pure was mostly wrong.
- use .for loops instead of shell for loops. This means we can be
shown what is happening while it's going, rather than some pacifier
"echo" statement.
- use "${INSTALL} -C", nuke the "cmp -s" hack
- for "copies" mode, the include files are no longer touched each time
the world is built. (ie: no rm -rf. symlinks are removed, mtree builds
the new dirs or confirms the existing ones)
- osreldate.h is build in the local dir and conditionally installed,
rather than built in /usr/include and either renamed or deleted.
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.
in the POSIX section for a log time. The non-POSIX getgrouplist() and
setgroups() were recently added to the POSIX section although setgroups()
was already in the non-POSIX section.
easier to use in mixed environments:
- Add three new members to the request structure:
- a filename specification
- a database type specification
- a system byte prder specification
These allow the client to ask the server for a particular type of
database (Berkeley DB hash/btree/recno, GNU GDBM, dbm, ndbm, etc...)
and get back a meaningful error if the server doesn't support it.
The byte order spec is needed if the database type is byte order
sensntive. You don't, for example, want to read an ndbm database
from a big endian machine on a little endian machine (the ndbm code
will explode). The filename spec lets the client handle things like
ndbm which uses two seperate files per database (foo.dir and foo.pag).
The client can ask for each half, one at a time.
- Add a list of database types and byte order values. Each list has
a wildcard 'ANY' entry which lets the client ask for whatever the
server supports. (XFR_ENDIAN_ANY is useful with the Berkeley DB hash
method for instance, since it isn't byte order sensitive.)
- Add two newserver failure codes: XFR_DB_TYPE_MISMATCH and
XFR_DB_ENDIAN_MISMATCH. The server uses these to tell the client
that it doesn't support the requested type/byte order.
These changes were made at the suggestion of Thorsten Kukuk, the
current maintainer of the Linux ypserv distribution. This allows
Linux and FreeBSD NIS servers to use the same ypxfrd protocol and
avoid accidentally exchanging incompatible map files.
