- 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
having to worry about the grad students sneaking into it when I'm
not looking. :)

- Added support for reading netgroups from NIS/YP in addition to the
local /etc/netgroups file. (Note that SunOS and many other systems only
support reading netgroups via NIS, which is a bit odd.)
- Fix Evil Null Pointer Dereferences From Hell (tm) that caused
parse_netgrp() to SEGV when expanding netgroups that include
references to other netgroups. Funny how nobody else noticed this.
This is the first step in implimenting +@netgroup substitution in
getpwent.c and any other places that could use it and don't already
support it (which is probably everywhere).
by heading off possible null pointer dereferences in grscan(). Also
change getgrnam() slightly to properly handle the change: if grscan()
returns an rval of 1 and leaves a '+' in the gr_name field and YP is
enabled, poll the YP group.byname map before giving up. This should
insure that we make every effort to find a match in the local and
YP group databases before bailing out.

Fix bugs in floating point formatting. The 4.4lite version is similar
to revision 1.3 in old-cvs and is missing all of jtc's fixes in revision
1.4 in old-cvs. Revision 1.2 in ncvs fixed one of the old bugs but
introduced at least one new one (for %.0e).

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.
What a fun way to spend an afternoon.
- 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.
1) Changed LIB_SCCS and SYSLIB_SCCS to LIB_RCS and SYSLIB_RCS.
2) Changed sccsid[] variables to rcsid[]

5) Added missing $Id$'s after copyright.
YP by disallowing `+' entries as logins in all cases. (This handles the
case of a `+' entry in the password file but YP not running, which should
never happen but is easy enough to check for so we'll apply some
prophylaxis.)
Embalm. Rewrite to do things much the same as gcc-2: use fistpq for speed

getcwd() has two off-by-one bugs in FreeBSD-2.0:
1. getcwd(buf, size) fails when the size is just large enough.
2. getcwd(buf + 1, 1) incorrectly succeeds when the current directory
is "/". buf[0] and buf[2] are clobbered.
(I modified Bruce's original patch to return the proper error code
[ERANGE] in the case of #2, but otherwise... -DG)
This program demonstrates the bug:
---
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
char buf[5];
int errors;
errors = 0;
if (chdir("/tmp") != 0) {
perror("chdir");
abort();
}
if (getcwd(buf, 5) == NULL) {
perror("oops, getcwd failed for buffer size = size required");
++errors;
}
if (chdir("/") != 0) {
perror("chdir");
abort();
}
buf[0] = 0;
buf[2] = 1;
if (getcwd(buf + 1, 1) != NULL) {
fprintf(stderr,
"oops, getcwd succeeded for buffer size = one too small\n");
++errors;
}
if (buf[0] != 0) {
fprintf(stderr,
"oops, getcwd scribbled on memory before start of buffer\n");
++errors;
}
if (buf[2] != 1) {
fprintf(stderr,
"oops, getcwd scribbled on memory after end of buffer\n");
++errors;
}
exit(errors == 0 ? 0 : 1);
}

nuke similar but non-broken caching in execvp(). malloc() should be

From: Chris Torek <torek@bsdi.com>
Here is a semi-official patch (apply to /usr/src/lib/libc/stdio/fseek.c,
rebuild libc, install). The current code fails when the seek:
- is optimized, and
- is to just past the end of the block currently in the buffer, and
- is followed by another seek with no intervening read operation, and
- the destination of subsequent seek is within the block left in the
buffer (seeking to the beginning of a block does not force a read,
so the buffer still contains the previous block)
so it is indeed rather obscure.
I may have a different `final' fix, as this one `loses' the buffer
contents on a seek that goes just past the end of the current block.
[Footnote: seeks are optimized only on read-only opens of regular
files that are buffered by the file's optimal I/O size. This is
what you get with fopen(path, "r") and no call to setvbuf().]

While trying to figure out why rlogind wasn't working right for root,
I noticed that man wouldn't come back with a man page for iruserok, but
it would for ruserok. Checking the lib/net directory's Makefile.inc
file shows that the link to the rcmd man page just isn't getting
created.

You MUST pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd before attempting to use the new

are running under. Here's how to bootstrap (order is important):
1) Re-compile gcc (just the driver is all you need).
2) Re-compile libc.
3) Re-compile your kernel. Reboot.
4) cd /usr/src/include; make install
You can now detect the compilation environment with the following code:
#if !defined(__FreeBSD__)
#define __FreeBSD_version 199401
#elif __FreeBSD__ == 1
#define __FreeBSD_version 199405
#else
#include <osreldate.h>
#endif
You can determine the run-time environment by calling the new C library
function getosreldate(), or by examining the MIB variable kern.osreldate.
For the time being, the release date is defined as 199409, which we have
already established as our target.
