for all datalinks in a bundle. Ppp now deals correctly
with link types that are changed while open
o When changing the type of the last AUTO link, only clear
the interface if we're not in PHASE_NETWORK. This allows
us to switch to -ddial mode while we have a connection
without suddenly unexpectedly throttling ourselves by
clearing the interface configuration.
Problem area noted by: Aaron Jeremias Luz <aaron@csh.rit.edu>
that we're now closing, manually HUP that session leader
so that the tty is fully released.
o Always restart our carrier detect timer in the receiving
process if it was running in the sending process (as we
now *always* pass the descriptor).
o Tweak argv when we go into pause() mode to keep our session
so that ps can see what's going on (without checking for a
`pause' state in `ps -l').
of supporting architectures with different device names.
o Close /dev/tunX when destroying the bundle.
o Don't forget to close the parent end of the pipe in the child
process when exec'ing a program from a chat script.
o If we close our controlling terminal, ditch the current session
with it, allowing getty(8) (or whatever) to regain control.
o After transferring our controlling terminal descriptor to another
ppp instance, we now fork a new ppp to continue where we left off,
transferring ownership of all uucp locks and the /var/run/tunX.pid
file. Meanwhile the parent closes all file descriptors, defaults
all signals and does a pause() to wait for a HUP after the
transferred descriptor is finally closed.
We don't run /bin/cat any more (again!).

TODO: It seems clocal devices need their pause()d session leader
to be given a manual HUP, as closing the last open descriptor
doesn't do the job.
It's now dealt with by the `server' object. This simplifies
things as we only have one list of prompt descriptors and
the log_ routines check prompt::logactive to determine
whether it should be used for output.
o Include the MP socket UpdateSet() result in bundle::UpdateSet().
o Don't select on the tun device unless we're in NETWORK
phase or AUTO mode.
o Stop the idle timer when we go to DEAD phase. We may
have transferred a link and not had a chance to kill
it.
o Don't fail when trying to unlink our transferred datalink
from our descriptor lists just before the transfer.
o Add our link descriptor to the write set if we got a short
write the last time (physical::out is set).
o Log the connection source address when a connection is closed.
o Remove descriptor::next field. Descriptor lists are not required
any more.
thresholds (in terms of queued packets for a period of time)
where -auto links will be brought up and down. By default,
all auto links come up when we reach NETWORK phase and never
go down.
o Display current autoload state in `show bundle'.
o Disable the idle timer as soon as it's called.
o Disable the idle and autoload timers when exiting (in case
we're abending).
is not possible to switch to or from dedicated or direct mode,
but all other combinations are ok (eg. -auto -> -ddial).
o Cope with the fact that commands with optional context may not
be able to obtain a link with command_ChooseLink() (if all links
have been deleted for example).
o Allow `clone'ing in non-multilink mode. We may for example want
to configure two links in unilink mode and dial them both, using
the one that comes up first. It's also possible to rename
``deflink'' by cloning it, deleting the original, then setting
the mode of the new link.
Any `add' or `delete' command that uses MYADDR or HISADDR
will be added to the sticky route list (show ipcp). When
MYADDR or HISADDR change due to IPCP negotiations, and if
`sroutes' is enabled (the default), all sticky route
entries are updated in the routing table.
The end result is that `add default hisaddr' will ``stick'',
as will ``add myaddr 255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1'' and
``add 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 hisaddr''.
using the scatter/gather array to transfer the link
information. The whole link is now passed in one message.
This is far better than the two `/bin/cat' processes per additional
link :-) I remember years ago thinking that file descriptor
transferral would be a really amazing facility !

log debug'' without filling our filesystem/screen with
junk that we don't really want to see.
o change PHYS_STDIN to PHYS_DIRECT - we can handle incoming
connections that aren't on STDIN_FILENO now.
o Allow return values from our FSM LayerUp functions. If
LayerUp() fails, the FSM does an immediate FsmDown() without
calling the fsm_parent's Layer{Up,Down} functions.
o Clear the close-on-exec flag of file descriptor 3 when executing
chat programs so that our documented ability to communicate with
/dev/tty via that descriptor works. Also document it as
descriptor 3, not 4 :-O
o Allow a ``rm'' command as an alias for ``remove''.
o Fix the bind()/connect()/accept() calls made by the MP server.
o Create bundle_SendDatalink() and bundle_ReceiveDatalink().
This allows `struct datalink's to flatten themselves, pass
through a pipe (read: the eye of a needle !) and come alive
at the other end. The donator then fork()s & exec()s pppmpipe,
``passing'' the connection to another ppp instance.
*** PPP NOW TALKS MULTILINK :-))) ***
Our link utilization is hideous, and lots of code needs
tidying still. It's also probably riddled with bugs !
It's been tested against itself only, and has hung once,
so confidence isn't high....
o Create struct mpserver as part of struct mp.
mpserver creates a unix-domain socket based on the
peers auth name and endpoint discriminator. If it
already exists, ppp will ``pass the link'' over to
the owner of the socket, joining it into the bundle
of another ppp invocation, otherwise ppp waits for
other invocations to pass it links through this
socket.
The final piece of code will be the code that flattens
our datalink info and passes it down this channel
(not yet implemented).
multilink ('cos I've seen my ISP REQ it without multilink).
Setting MRRU is ifdef'd out until it's debugged and we can
merge -direct links with other running programs.
Fix MTU setting.
and denied by default (POLA).
o Remove ``enable'' msext. Now, doing a ``set nbns'' will
automatically enable a NBNS ACK/NAK rather than a REJ.
o Add accept|disable|deny|enable dns. If we ``accept'',
we'll tell the peer what our nameservers are (if he asks).
The values in resolv.conf can be overridden with the
``set dns'' command. If we ``enable'', we'll REQ using
our resolv.conf entries, and any NAKs are written back to
resolv.conf.
o Remove ``show msext'' and show the relevent IP numbers in
``show ipcp''.
call datalink_Down() where appropriate rather than
modem_Hangup().
o Now, when something horrible happens (failed read/write, loss
of carrier etc), we go offline and run any hangup scripts etc
in a controlled manner - exactly the same as if someone says
``down'' at the prompt or sends us a HUP.
o -dedicated links that fail to make the modem raw close it,
suffer the redial timeout then try to open it again.
o Add a ``carrier lost'' warning diagnostic.
bundle (non-negotiated vars) or to their respective IPCP,
LCP or CCP.
o Enable rolling throughput statistics by default.
o Remove the `display' command. These values now appear in
`show bundle', `show ipcp', `show ccp' and `show lcp'.
o Initialise auth name & key at bundle create time (oops).
o Rename pppd-deflate (the id-24 hack) to deflate24.
o Don't send both a REJ and a NAK to an IPCP or LCP REQ.
Favour the REJ (already done at the CCP level).
o Recurse in datalink_UpdateSet() when we change state, otherwise
we end up setting no descriptors and getting jammed in the
imminent select() instead of doing the dial/login/hangup.
o Display our CHAP encryption method despite being built with DES.
o Display VJ as not negotiated in ``show ipcp'' when necessary.
o Shuffle things that live at the datalink level into
``show link'' rather than ``show modem''.
o Make both ``show'' commands prettier and more consistent,
and display carrier status, link type and our name in
``show modem''.
o Show redial and reconnect information in ``show link''
and remove ``show redial'' and ``show reconnect''.
o Down the correct link in bundle_LinkLost().
o Remove stale -direct and -background links at the end
of our main loop, not when we know they're going. This
prevents unexpected pointer-invalidations...
o If we ``set server'' with the same values twice, notice
and don't moan about failure.
o Record dial script despite our link mode. The mode may
be changed later (next mod) :-) We never run scripts
in -direct and -dedicated modes.
o Make ``set server none'' functional again.
o Correct datalink state array so that we don't report an
``unknown'' state.
o Pass struct ipcp to IpcpCleanInterface, not struct fsm.
o Create TUN_PREFIX define rather than hard-coding in main.c
o prompt_TtyInit now handles a NULL prompt for -direct mode
rather than having to create one then destroy it uncleanly.
o Mention our mode in the "PPP Started" LogPHASE message.
o Bring all auto links up when we have something to send.
o Remove some redundant Physical_*() functions.
o Show which connection is running a command when logging
commands.
o Initialise throughput uptime correctly.
option. We never ask a client for MSChap when we've got
chap `enabled', and we dynamically answer using MSChap
if the peer demands it.
o Remove all of the bundle2*() series of functions except
bundle2datalink() as they're too expensive. The only
calls to bundle2datalink() are made from command.c when
determining context.
o Write to the correct modem in term mode, and check the
return value, dropping back to command mode if the write
fails.
Cosmetic:
Make the PPP COMMAND LIST section of the man page
prettier, better and more consistent. Alphabeticalise
all command lists and document missing commands.
o Our diagnostic socket has its password set in the `set socket'
line only (not in ppp.secret).
o Passwords are per server socket (*VarAuthKey are gone)
o Authority is per prompt (VarLocalAuth is gone).
o Local logging is per prompt.
o Add a `show who' command to see who's connected. No identd
routine - just a `where the connection came from' display.
o SIGUSR1 is disabled for now - we have no way of choosing a
password for the socket created :-(
Prompts are attached as a list of `struct descriptor's in
struct bundle, and serviced under the bundles descriptor
service routines. Ultimately, everything should be done
like this.
Cosmetic:
o alphabeticalise SRCS in Makefile.
o Add a few comments in command.h
TODO: Start checking that we don't overflow the descriptor sets
in select() now that we can have any number of descriptors.
o Remove bundle2lcp(), bundle2ccp() and bundle2link().
They're too resource-hungry and we have `owner pointers'
to do their job.
o Make our FSM understand LCPs that are always ST_OPENED
(with a minimum code that != 1).
o Send FSM code rejects for invalid codes.
o Make our bundle fsm_parent deal with multiple links.
o Make timer diagnostics pretty and allow access via ~t
in `term' mode (not just when logging debug) and
`show timers'. Only show timers every second in debug
mode, otherwise we get too many diagnostics to be useful
(we probably still do). Also, don't restrict ~m in term
mode to depend on debug logging.
o Rationalise our bundles' phases.
o Create struct mp (multilink protocol). This is both an
NCP and a type of struct link. It feeds off other NCPs
for output, passing fragmented packets into the queues
of available datalinks. It also gets PROTO_MP input,
reassembles the fragments into ppp frames, and passes
them back to the HDLC layer that the fragments were passed
from.
** It's not yet possible to enter multilink mode :-( **
o Add `set weight' (requires context) for deciding on a links
weighting in multilink mode. Weighting is simplistic (and
probably badly implemented) for now.
o Remove the function pointers in struct link. They ended up
only applying to physical links.
o Configure our tun device with an MTU equal to the MRU from
struct mp's LCP and a speed equal to the sum of our link
speeds.
o `show {lcp,ccp,proto}' and `set deflate' now have optional
context and use ChooseLink() to decide on which `struct link'
to use. This allows behaviour as before when in non-multilink
mode, and allows access to the MP logical link in multilink
mode.
o Ignore reconnect and redial values when in -direct mode and
when cleaning up. Always redial when in -ddial or -dedicated
mode (unless cleaning up).
o Tell our links to `staydown' when we close them due to a signal.
o Remove remaining `#ifdef SIGALRM's (ppp doesn't function without
alarms).
o Don't bother strdup()ing our physical link name.
o Various other cosmetic changes.
Increment OutPackets for any packet - not just LQRs
MFC:
o Fix a few comment typos.
o Fix ``set timeout'' usage message and documentation.
o Change ifOutPackets, ifOutOctets and ifOutLQRs to `u_int32_t's
so that they wrap correctly.
o Put the LQR in network byte order using the correct struct size
(sizeof u_int32_t, not sizeof u_long).
o Wrap LQR ECHO counters correctly.
o Don't increment OutLQR count if the last LQR hasn't been replied
to.
o Initialise last received LQR in StartLqm.
o Don't start the LQR timer if we're `disabled' and `accepted'.
o Generate LQR responses when both sides are using a timer and
we're not going to send our next LQR before the peers max timeout.
This is a type of physical link that can chat and talk
LCP & CCP. A bundle contains a list of these (only one
in the list for the moment).
The datalink is a type of descriptor, and dials, enters
LCP (& does CCP), kicks the bundle when its FSMs do
something interesting and does the hangup chat script
on the way down. It also handles redials and reconnects.
There are lots of loose ends, and probably lots of bugs,
but the data structures are getting there !
o Don't remove routes and DOWN the interface when we're
closed in auto mode.
o Initialize the FSMs in bundle_Create.
o Initialize ipcp::if_mine & ipcp::if_peer only once (so
that we don't forget that we've SIOCAIFADDR'd the interface).
o Do a SIOCDIFADDR on the specific address to avoid hurting any
other (still non-existent) NCPs.
o Fix some error/diagnostic messages.
o The FSM layering is now more sane.
o Move a lot of the NCP stuff into our ipcpstate rather than having it
in the bundle, including control of the configured IP addresses. We
don't need hacks like the global `linkup' variable any more as the
FSM decides when our ppp.link* files get run. This is going to eventually
be configurable based on FSM events anyway.
o Fix a few inconsistencies when both sides require authentication.
o We now have "Ppp..." and "PPp" prompts, reflecting authentication
and network phase. We don't print loads of spurious prompts as we
change phases any more.
o Our phase is part of the bundle now.
o Fix a bug where the FSM wasn't calling LayerFinish.
o Close the FSM down correctly with a signal rather than slamming it
down as if the line was dropped (the undocumented ``down'' command
is still available though).
o Remove the forgotten `tunno' variable and fix references to it.
This structure will eventually contain a list of NCPs (currently
only IPCP is supported) and a list of physical `struct link's.
It will also derive from a struct link itself.
Make ModemTimeout() static - it's way to dangerous to be called
from outside !
Bump version to 1.9. Our first MP release should be 2.0.
