sign extension bugs in /usr/src. In the kernel, this is partly
because `struct speedtab' and its lookup function are too bogus
to use speed_t's for speeds - they use ints.

Add a bootstrap mode so that non-rtld versions of these objects can
be built when bootstrapping the system with NetBSD tools, headers
and libraries. Once the FreeBSD tools are built, the FreeBSD headers
are installed and *then* these objects can be recompiled with the
rtld references. Phew.
asm code didn't link the way it was supposed to and the calling convention
for the entry "function" turned out to be very different. On alpha
it's a true function, but on i386 it's a fudge. Blech.
So jdp suggested keeping separate sets of source and avoiding lots
of #ifdefs. These files are based on his i386-elf code, with crt1.c
borrowing code from NetBSD's crt0. The copyright reflects that.
Complicating matters, the code turned out to be difficult to bootstrap
build using NetBSD tools. To compile against the FreeBSD rtld header
requires FreeBSD specific headers, but these can't be installed until
the tools are built, and they can't be built without the FreeBSD crt
objects. Anal retentive. So I introduced a HAVE_RTLD #define that isn't
set during the build process until all the tools are built and the
headers installed.
now that has been committed.
The makefile is derived from the i386-elf version, modified to pick
up most of the source (except crt1.c) from i386-elf. With minor changes
to i386-elf/crt1.c, this directory can be combined with i386-elf to
be a single csu/elf directory for all seasons.
the rtld code pending implementation on the alpha.
The csu/i386-elf should be renamed as csu/elf and this directory
trashed. Consider this a temporary implementation.
List non-default asm sources in MDASM so that they replace the defaults.
For funny or incomplete syscalls, list them in NOASM to stop them
from getting built as defaults.
Include the architecture specific sys makefile like previously, but
what this contains differs. It defines MDASM which list architecture
specific asm code that *replaces* syscalls of the same name defined
in MIASM (which gets defined by the syscall.mk or netbsd_syscall.mk
dependent of NETBSD_SYSCALLS being defined). If a syscall has a
C source implementation or something funny done to it, or just doesn't
need default asm source generated for it, then it is listed in NOASM.
syscall.mk is generated by makesyscalls.sh with other syscall files.
netbsd_syscall.mk is a hand-generated equivalent. So if a new syscall
is added and no other makefiles are edited, it will automatically have
the default asm source generated for it (whether you want it or not).
Anything listed in MDASM gets added to SRCS and gets built. For
each syscall name in MIASM, if it doesn't exist in MDASM or NOASM,
it gets added to the ASM or ASMR lists to have code generated for it.
If the syscall name was listed in HIDDEN_SYSCALLS (intended for use
by libc_r, not libc which has it defined, but empty), then the name
is added to the ASMR list and gets renamed before being built;
otherwise it is added to the ASM list and gets built with the same
name.
I wonder if this is too complicated. But it works on both i386 and alpha.
substitution errors for variables that don't exist.
If a machine architecture dependent makefile exists, include it
to discover if libc or libc_r is being built with NetBSD syscalls
instead of FreeBSD ones.
Put a NO_QUAD thingy around the quad makefile so that 64-bit
architectures can ignore that sh*t.
In the test for MDSRCS being empty, add all MISRCS to SRCS, rather
than just ignoring them.
Define the HIDDEN_SYSCALLS macro as empty because libc doesn't have
renamed syscalls. This avoids an undefined macro error when
libc/sys/Makefile.inc goes to look though it. HIDDEN_SYSCALLS is
used by the equivalent makefile to this one in lib/libc_r to list
those syscalls that it needs to rename so that libc_r can provide
replacement functions.
Change MACHINE references to MACHINE_ARCH.
Declare the names of the syscalls that need to be renamed to allow
for the functions that libc_r provides replacements for. This list
used to be in lib/libc/sys/Makefile.inc, but has been moved here
to keep that makefile tidy and remove the temptation for people to
add things to the list without adding a libc_r replacement function.
prototypes for the spinlock functions that will be used for thread locks.
libc will have stubs declared with weak symbols. libpthread and libc_r

Changes to support building with _POSIX_SOURCE set to 199309L:
1. Add sys/_posix.h to handle those preprocessor defs that POSIX
says have effects when defined before including any header files;
2. Change POSIX4_VISIBLE back to _POSIX4_VISIBLE
3. Add _POSIX4_VISIBLE_HISTORICALLY for pre-existing BSD features now
defined in POSIX. These show up when:
_POSIX_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE are not set or
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is set >= 199309L
and vanish when:
_POSIX_SOURCE is set or _POSIX_C_SOURCE is < 199309L.
4. Explain these in man 9 posix4;
5. Include _posix.h and conditionalize on new feature test.
- Completely recoded the ypmatch cache code. The old code could leak
memory: it would allow the cache to grow, but never
shrink. The new code imposes the following limits:
o The cache is capped at a limit of 5 entries.
o Each entry expires after five seconds, at which point
its slot is freed.
o If an insertion is to be done and all five slots
are filled, the oldest entry is forcibly expired
to release its slot.
Also, the cache is implemented on a per-binding basis rather than
having a global cache covering all bindings. This means that each
bound domain has its own 5 slot cache.
- Changed clntudp_create() to clntudp_bufcreate() so that the
xmit/recv message buffer sizes can be set explicitly. NIS transactions
are rarely much larger than 1024 bytes since YPMAXRECORD is 1024.
The defaults chosen by clntudb_create() are actually much larger
than needed. I set the xmit buffer to a little over 1024 and the
recv buffer to a little over 2048. This saves a few Kbytes for each
NIS binding.
- Add my name to the copyright. I think I've made enough changes to
this file to merit it. :)
Note: these changes should go into the 2.2.x branch, but I'm waiting
on feedback from a tester to see if the cache fixes solve the reported
memory leak problem.
changes to bsd.lib.mk can handle building it early enough. Don't
use the same rule for ss_err.h and ss_err.c, else `make -jN' would
run the rule twice concurrently. Don't put ss_err.c out of order
in SRCS; doing so was a kludge to get ss_err.h built early enough
for plain `make'.
Don't put a non-generated file in CLEANFILES.

instead of Singe Unix, thanx Bruce for explaining, I am not realize
standards war was there.
But now, fix n == 0 case to not return error and fix check for too
big n.
Things left to do: check for overflow in arguments.
Final word is Bruce's quote:
C9x specifies the BSD4.4-Lite behaviour:
[#3] ... Thus, the
null-terminated output has been completely written if and
only if the returned value is less than n.
It means that if we not have any null-terminated output as for n == 0
we can't return value less than n, so we forced to return value
equal to n i.e. 0
The next good thing is glibc compatibility, of course.
2) Do check for too big n in machine-independent way.
3) Minor optimization assuming EOF is < 0
The main argument is that it is impossible to determine if %n evaluated or not
when snprintf return 0, because it can happens for both n == 0 and n == 1.
Although EOF here is good indication of the end of process, if n is
decreased in the loop...
Since it is already supposed in many places that EOF *is* negative, f.e.
from Single Unix specs for snprintf
"return ... a negative value if an output error was encountered"
this not makes situation worse.
to pass not more than buffer size to %n agrument, old variant
always assume infinite buffer.
%n is for actually transmitted characters, not for planned ones.
"return the number of bytes needed, rather the number used"
According to Single Unix specs:
Upon successful completion, these functions return the number of bytes
transmitted excluding the terminating null
1) if buffer size is smaller than arguments size, return buffer
size, not arguments size as before.
2) if buffer size is 0, return 0, not EOF as before.
(now it is compatible with Linux and Apache implementations too).
NOTE: Single Unix specs says:
If the value of n {buffer size} is zero on a call to snprintf(), an
unspecified value less than 1 is returned.
It means we can't return EOF since EOF can take *any* value in general
not especially < 1. Better variant will be return -1 (it is less then
1 and different with n == 1 case) but -1 value is already occuped by
EOF in our implementation, so we can't distinguish true IO error
in that case. So 0 here is only possible case still conforming
to Single Unix specs.

potentially be a security problem.

on systems where long doubles are just doubles. FreeBSD hasn't
been such a system since it started using gcc-2.5 many years ago.
The fix is of low quality. It loses precision.
scanf() of long doubles doesn't seem to be used much, but gdb-4.16
uses %Lg format in its expression parser if it thinks that the
system supports printf'ing of long doubles. The symptom was that
floating point literals were usually interpreted to be 0.0.

used unless for some reason you put #undef sigismember in your code before

Ever since I first say the way the mount flags were used I've hated the
fact that modes, and events, internal and exported, and short-term
and long term flags are all thrown together. Finally it's annoyed me enough..
This patch to the entire FreeBSD tree adds a second mount flag word
to the mount struct. it is not exported to userspace. I have moved
some of the non exported flags over to this word. this means that we now
have 8 free bits in the mount flags. There are another two that might
well move over, but which I'm not sure about.
The only user visible change would have been in pstat -v, except
that davidg has disabled it anyhow.
I'd still like to move the state flags and the 'command' flags
apart from each other.. e.g. MNT_FORCE really doesn't have the
same semantics as MNT_RDONLY, but that's left for another day.

partway through its attempt to decode the result structure sent by
the server. If this happens, it can leave the result partially
populated with dynamically allocated memory. In this event, the
xdr_replymsg() failure is detected and RPC_CANTDECODERES is returned,
but the memory in the partially populated result struct is not
free()d.
The end result is that memory is leaked when an RPC_CANTDECODERES
error occurs. (This condition can occur if a CLIENT * handle is created
using clntudp_bufcreate() with a receive buffer size that is too small
to handle the result sent by the server.)
Fixed by setting reply_xdrs.x_op to XDR_FREE and calling
xdr_replymsg() again to free the memory if an RPC_CANTDECODERES error
is detected.
I suspect that the clnt_tcp.c, clnt_unix.c and clnt_raw.c modules

1. In one spot, the ifr_flags member was being examined in the
wrong structure, thus it contained garbage. On a machine in which
only the loopback interface was up, this caused everything that
wanted to talk to the portmapper to fail -- a particular problem
with laptops, where the pccard ethernet interface is likely to come
up long after the attempt to start mountd, nfsd, amd, etc.
2. Compounding the above problem, get_myaddress() returned a
successful status even though it failed to find an address that it
considered good enough.
This fixes bugs in the manual handling. abs.[cS] was handled too
specially and the wrong (.c) variant for each of div.[cS], labs.[cS]
and ldiv.[cS] was added to SRCS. This caused the .c variant to be
used if `depend' was made and the .S version to be used otherwise.
The names of m-d variants are now added (manually) to MDSRCS instead
of to SRCS, and the names of all machine-independent (m-i) variants
that can reasonably be replaced by an m-d variant are now added
(manually) to MISRCS instead of to SRCS, so that a simple substitution
can be used to discard the unused m-i variants. MISRCS is potentially
all m-i sources, but the substitution is too simple to be fast, so
MISRCS should be kept reasonably small.

made to the RPC code some months ago. The value of __svc_fdsetsize is being
calculated incorrectly.
Logically, one would assume that __svc_fdsetsize is being used as a
substitute for FD_SETSIZE, with the difference being that __svc_fdsetsize
can be expanded on the fly to accomodate more descriptors if need be.
There are two problems: first, __svc_fdsetsize is not initialized to 0.
Second, __svc_fdsetsize is being calculated in svc.c:xprt_registere() as:
__svc_fdsetsize = howmany(sock+1, NFDBITS);
This is wrong. If we are adding a socket with index value 4 to the
descriptor set, then __svc_fdsetsize will be 1 (since fds_bits is
an unsigned long, it can support any descriptor from 0 to 31, so we
only need one of them). In order for this to make sense with the
rest of the code though, it should be:
__svc_fdsetsize = howmany(sock+1, NFDBITS) * NFDBITS;
Now if sock == 4, __svc_fdsetsize will be 32.
This bug causes 2 errors to occur. First, in xprt_register(), it
causes the __svc_fdset descriptor array to be freed and reallocated
unnecessarily. The code checks if it needs to expand the array using
the test: if (sock + 1 > __svc_fdsetsize). The very first time through,
__svc_fdsetsize is 0, which is fine: an array has to be allocated the
first time out. However __svc_fdsetsize is incorrectly set to 1, so
on the second time through, the test (sock + 1 > __svc_fdsetsize)
will still succeed, and the __svc_fdset array will be destroyed and
reallocated for no reason.
Second, the code in svc_run.c:svc_run() can become hopelessly confused.
The svc_run() routine malloc()s its own fd_set array using the value
of __svc_fdsetsize to decide how much memory to allocate. Once the
xprt_register() function expands the __svc_fdset array the first time,
the value for __svc_fdsetsize becomes 2, which is too small: the resulting
calculation causes the code to allocate an array that's only 32 bits wide
when it actually needs 64 bits. It also uses the valuse of __svc_fdsetsize
when copying the contents of the __svc_fdset array into the new array.
The end result is that all but the first 32 file descriptors get lost.
Note: from what I can tell, this bug originated in OpenBSD and was
brought over to us when the code was merged. The bug is still there
in the OpenBSD source.

particular for ENAMETOOLONG, ENOTDIR, ELOOP. This fixes PR1487. sh(1)
gets this wrong in the opposite direction by never aborting the search.
- don't confuse EACCES for errors related to the path prefix with EACCES
for errors related to the file. sh(1) gets this wrong.
- don't return a stale errno when the search terminates normally without
finding anything. The errno for the last unsuccessful execve() was
usually returned. This gave too much precedence to pathologies in the
last component of $PATH. This bug is irrelevant for sh(1).
The implementation still uses the optimization/race-inhibitor of trying
to execve() things first. POSIX.2 seems to require looking at file
permissions using stat(). We now use stat() after execve() if execve()
fails with an ambiguous error. Trying execve() first may actually be a
pessimization, since failing execve()s are fundamentally a little slower
than stat(), and are significantly slower when a file is found but has
unsuitable permissions or points to an unsuitable interpreter.

'slow' lookup if we get a YPERR_MAP (no such map in server's domain) error
instead of failing over on any error. In the latter case, if the 'fast'
search fails legitimately (i.e. the user or host really isn't a member
of the specified netgroup) then we end up doing the 'slow' search and
failing all over again. The result is still correct, but cycles are
consumed for no good reason.
Also removed the #ifdef CHARITABLE since the compat kludge is no longer
optional.
that if searching through the special netgroup.byhost or netgroup.byuser
maps didn't work, we would roll over to the 'slow' method of grovelling
though the netgroup map and working out the dependencies on the fly.
But I left this option hidden inside an #ifdef CHARITABLE since I
didn't think I'd ever need it.
Well, the Sun rpc.nisd NIS+ server in YP compat mode doesn't support
the .byhost and .byuser reverse maps, so the failover is necessary
in order to be compatible. *sigh*
This closes PR #3891, and should be merged into RELENG_2_2.
ISSUES:
An example and better explansion on how to specify a user's login
class in /etc/master passwd is needed.
(As I don't seem to be specifiying it right, I can't do it).
can return UNIX errnos. When UNIX errnos catch up with FTP status
codes (e.g. at 100) a new way will have to be found to tell which
is which.
This allows fetch to print errors like
fetch: ftp.fu-berlin.de: No route to host
instead of
fetch: ftp.fu-berlin.de: Unknown error

the timeout code got called. Whoops!

plain 0 should be used. This happens to work because we #define
NULL to 0, but is stylistically wrong and can cause problems
for people trying to port bits of code to other environments.

an unimplemented syscall returned ENOSYS, rather than EINVAL. I have run
statically linked code with this wrapper and it does appear to work fine
on 2.2-stable which doesn't have poll(). ktrace shows the poll syscall fail
once and the fallback to select() working.
if necessary. This removes the need to malloc large fd_set's for selecting
on high fd's (larger than FD_SETSIZE at libc compile time).
The syscall adaptive stuff only happens on the very first call. SIGSYS
is masked, and if the call to poll fails with ENOSYS, then we use select
for the life of the program. If poll does not fail with ENOSYS, then we
always use poll and skip the once-off signal masking gunk.
This may be overkill, but it saved my neck a few times while working on
multiple different sets of kernel sources, some with poll, some without.
things like libskey.so to be dynamically self contained.
Things like md5(1) where speed is critical should still link with libmd.a,
but for things like login, where it's a once-off call if skey is used, it's
not worth the hassle.
