Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
glibc has a pretty nice function called crypt_r(3), which is nothing
more than crypt(3), but thread-safe. It accomplishes this by introducing
a 'struct crypt_data' structure that contains a buffer that is large
enough to hold the resulting string.
Let's go ahead and also add this function. It would be a shame if a
useful function like this wouldn't be usable in multithreaded apps.
Refactor crypt.c and all of the backends to no longer declare static
arrays, but write their output in a provided buffer.
There is no need to do any buffer length computation here, as we'll just
need to ensure that 'struct crypt_data' is large enough, which it is.
_PASSWORD_LEN is defined to 128 bytes, but in this case I'm picking 256,
as this is going to be part of the actual ABI.

gratuitous difference between us and our sister project.
This was given to me _ages_ ago. May apologies to Paul for the length
of time its taken me to commit.

for crypt(3) by now. In any case:
Add crypt_set_format(3) + documentation to -lcrypt.
Add login_setcryptfmt(3) + documentation to -lutil.
Support for switching crypt formats in passwd(8).
Support for switching crypt formats in pw(8).
The simple synopsis is:
edit login.conf; add a passwd_format field set to "des" or "md5"; go nuts :)

Secure Hashing Algorithm - 1 (SHA-1), along with the further
refinement of what $x$salt$hash means. With this new crypt the
following are all acceptable:
$1$
$MD5$
$SHA1$
Note: $2$ is used by OpenBSD's Blowfish, which I considered adding
as $BF$, but there is no actual need for it with SHA-1. However,
somebody wishing to add OpenBSD password support could easilly add
it in now.
There is also a malloc_crypt() available in the library now, which
behaves exactly the same as crypt(), but it uses a malloced buffer
instead of a static buffer. However, this is not standard so will
likely not be used much (at all).
Also, for those interested I did a brief speed test Pentium 166/MMX,
which shows the DES crypt to do approximately 2640 crypts a CPU second,
MD5 to do about 62 crypts a CPU second and SHA1 to do about 18 crypts
a CPU second.
