If rpc.yppasswdd is invoked with the -i flag, password changes will
be made to the master.passwd template file and the hash map files
in-place, which means it won't have to run a complete map update.
Instead, it calls /var/yp/Makefile with the 'pushpw' target, which
just pushes the maps to the slaves and runs yp_mkdb -c to tell the
local ypserv to flush its database cache.
The server will check the passwd.byname and passwd.byuid maps to see
if they were built in 'insecure' or 'secure' mode (i.e. with real
encrypted passwords in them or without) and update them accordingly.
This combined with rpc.ypxfrd greatly reduces the amount of time it
takes to complete an NIS password change, especially with very large
passwd databases.
- Add a 'pushpw' target that only yppushes the various passwd maps
and sends a YPPROC_CLEAR to the local ypserv. This will be used by
rpc.yppasswdd once I merge in the in-place update changes.
yp_access.c:
- Make the yp_access() function print RPC program and procedure numbers
that it doesn't know about in literal form. This will allow it to work
with other prgrams that it doesn't know about, like rpc.ypxfrd I'm going
to import shortly.
yp_dblookup.c:
- Take out the __inline keywords. They weren't really helping me anyway.
- Somehow I broke yp_next() when DB_CACHE wasn't #defined. Fix it.
- Also fix potential case where yp_next() might loop forever; make sure
it checks the return values of all the (dbp->seq)()/R_NEXT calls that
it does as well as comparing keys.

There was a global change required to permit LogPrintf to take a bit
mask instead of a bit position value (to permit logging some events

long for such a small change. The man page is also touched.

orthogonal with the rest of the system (you can now use either -PPS or
-P PS), and makes the parser more intelligible. The only drawback is
that the old semantics for the -i flag in case a non-numeric argument
is following are no longer fully supported (only if -i is the very
last arg at all), since getopt(3) doesn't support the discticnction
between numeric and non-numeric arguments.

of this bug is that the first attempt by a user to change their NIS password
succeeds, but all subsequent attempts fail. rpc.yppasswdd also logs
a message about not being able to find a file called
'/var/yp/<some garbage string>/master.passwd.' (Note that for some
bizarre reason, this doesn't happen with the malloc() from FreeBSD 2.1.0.
I suppose this means we can chalk up another victory for phkmalloc. :)
This bug only occurs if you use the -m flag with rpc.yppasswdd.

Some more cleanup is needed, but i'd like to separate the Lite2 changes

yp_dblookup.c:
- Implement database handle caching. What this means is that instead
of opening and closing map databases for each request, we open a
database and save the handle (and, if requested, the key index)
in an array. This saves a bit of overhead on things like repeated
YPPROC_NEXT calls, such as you'd get from getpwent(). Normally,
each YPPROC_NEXT would require open()ing the database, seeking
to the location supplied by the caller (which is time consuming with
hash databases as the R_CURSOR flag doesn't work), reading the
data, close()ing the database and then shipping the data off to
the caller. The system call overhead is prohibitive, especially
with very large maps. By caching the handle to an open database,
we elimitate at least the open()/close() system calls, as well
as the associated DB setup and tear-down operations, for a large
percentage of the time. This improves performance substantially at
the cost of consuming a little more memory than before.
Note that all the caching support is surrounded by #ifdef DB_CACHE
so that this same source module can still be used by other programs
that don't need it.
- Make yp_open_db() call yp_validdomain(). Doing it here saves cycles
when caching is enabled since a hit on the map cache list by
definition means that the domain being referenced is valid.
- Also make yp_open_db() check for exhaustion of file descriptors,
just in case.
yp_server.c:
- Reorganize things a little to take advantage of the database
handle caching. Add a call to yp_flush_all() in ypproc_clear_2_svc().
- Remove calls to yp_validdomain() from some of the service procedures.
yp_validdomain() is called inside yp_open_db() now, so procedures that
call into the database package don't need to use yp_validdomain()
themselves.
- Fix a bogosity in ypproc_maplist_2_svc(): don't summarily initiallize
the result.maps pointer to NULL. This causes yp_maplist_free()
to fail and leaks memory.
- Make ypproc_master_2_svc() copy the string it gets from the database
package into a private static buffer before trying to NUL terminate it.
This is necessary with the DB handle caching: stuffing a NUL into the
data returned by DB package will goof it up internally.
yp_main.c:
- Stuff for DB handle caching: call yp_init_dbs() to clear the
handle array and add call to yp_flush_all() to the SIGHUP
signal handler.
Makefile.yp:
- Reorganize to deal with database caching. yp_mkdb(8) can now be used
to send a YPPROC_CLEAR signal to ypserv(8). Call it after each map
is created to refresh ypserv's cache.
- Add support for mail.alias map.
