The getaddrinfo(3), getipnodebyname(3) and resolver(3) can coincide now
with what should be totally reentrant, and h_errno values will now
be preserved correctly, but this does not affect interfaces such as
gethostbyname(3) which are still mostly non-reentrant.
In all of these relevant functions, the thread-safety has been pushed
down as far as it seems possible right now. This means that operations
that are selected via nsdispatch(3) (i.e. files, yp, dns) are protected
still under global locks that getaddrinfo(3) defines, but where possible
the locking is greatly reduced. The most noticeable improvement is
that multiple DNS lookups can now be run at the same time, and this
shows major improvement in performance of DNS-lookup threaded programs,
and solves the "Mozilla tab serialization" problem.
No single-threaded applications need to be recompiled. Multi-threaded
applications that reference "_res" to change resolver(3) options will
need to be recompiled, and ones which reference "h_errno" will also
if they desire the correct h_errno values. If the applications already
understood that _res and h_errno were not thread-safe and had their own
locking, they will see no performance improvement but will not
actually break in any way.
Please note that when NSS modules are used, or when nsdispatch(3)
defaults to adding any lookups of its own to the individual libc
_nsdispatch() calls, those MUST be reentrant as well.
incorrectly when encountering `large' groups (many members and/or many
long member names). The reporter tracked this down to the glibc NSS
module compatibility code (nss_compat.c): it would prematurely record
that a NSS module was finished iterating through its database in some
cases.
Two aspects are corrected:
1. nss_compat.c recorded that a NSS module was finished iterating
whenever the module reported something other than SUCCESS. The
correct logic is to continue iteration when the module reports
either SUCCESS or RETURN. The __nss_compat_getgrent_r and
__nss_compat_getpwent_r routines are updated to reflect this.
2. An internal helper macro __nss_compat_result is used to map glibc
NSS status codes to BSD NSS status codes (e.g. NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS ->
NS_SUCCESS). It provided the obvious mapping.
When a NSS routine is called with a too-small buffer, the
convention in the BSD NSS code is to report RETURN. (This is used
to implement reentrant APIs such as getpwnam_r(3).) However, the
convention in glibc for this case is to set errno = ERANGE and
overload TRYAGAIN. __nss_compat_result is updated to handle this
case.

to fail needlessly if a reverse DNS lookup of the IP address didn't
come up with a hostname. As a comment in the code clearly stated,
the "damn hostname" was looked up only for the purpose of netgroup
matching. But if that lookup failed, the function bailed out
immediately even though in many cases netgroup matching would not
be used.
This change marks the hostname as unknown but continues. Where
netgroup matching is performed, an unknown hostname is handled
conservatively. I.e., for "+@netgroup" (accept) entries an unknown
hostname never matches, and for "-@netgroup" (reject) entries an
unknown hostname always matches.
In the lines affected (only), I also fixed a few bogus casts. There
