Use setusercontext() rather than setuid()/setgid()/setlogin()/initgroups()

yp_next_record() is called without a key (from xdr_my_ypresp_all()),
in which case it returns the first key in the map. When doing this,
it also needs to update the key index in the map queue entry. Without
this, ypproc_all_2_svc() (and hence ypcat) don't work correctly.

terminate(). This makes doubly sure we don't trip the SIGTERM handler
in a child process. Suggested by: phk.
- It's int main(argc, argv), not void main(argc, argv), gosh darn it.
- If a child receives a SIGTERM, it will call the terminate() function
and end up doing the shutdown procedurs that should really only be
done by the parent. Set the SIGTERM behavior back to SIG_DLT in the
child after fork()ing.
- If the parent fails to read data back from the child because the
child has exited, it will call rpc_received() with bogus tdata that
can cause the parent to SEGV. Make handle_children() detect this
condition correctly and handle it sanely.

- yp_main.c: Always add the resolver socket to the set of fds
monitored by select(). It can happen that pending == 0 but we
still have some data in the socket buffer from an old query.
This way, the data will be flushed in a timely manner.
- yp_extern.h: remove proto for yp_dns_pending() since we don't need
it anynmore.
- yp_server.c: call yp_async_lookup_name()/yp_async_lookup_addr()
functions with the svc_req pointer as an arg instead of the xprt.
(The svc_req struct includes a pointer to the transport handle,
and it also has the service version number which the async DNS
code will need. (see below))
- yp_dnslookup.c:
o Nuke yp_dns_pending() since we don't need it anymore.
o In yp_run_dnsq(), swallow up and ignore replies if no requests
are pending or the ID doesn't match any of the IDs in the queue.
o In yp_send_dns_reply(), we assume that we will always be
replying to an NIS v2 client. While this will probably always
be the case, we do support the v1 'match' procedure, and it
has a different result struct than v2. For completeness,
support replying to both NIS v1 and v2 clients.
o Update the queue entry structure to include a member to
keep track of the NIS version number.
o Have yp_async_lookup_name/addr() extract the version number
from the svc_req structure and save it with the queue entry
for yp_send_dns_reply() to inspect later.
o Add some comments.
- Don't dereference a NULL hostent pointer (if T_PTR lookup fails).
- Today I asked myself: "Self, you wrote this nifty async resolver
that does a great job handling delayed replies to clients using
the UDP transport, and the yplib code in libc always uses UDP
(except for yp_all()). But what if some dork makes a DNS lookup using
TCP?" Being the only dork on hand at the time, I tried it and was
enlightened. As I suspected, my transaction ID frobbing hacks cause
fireworks if called on a TCP transport handle (duh: the structures
are different). Fix: check the type of socket in xprt->xp_sock using
getsockopt() and don't use svcudp_get_xid() and svcudp_set_xid() for
anything except SOCK_DGRAM sockets. (Since accept() gives you a
new socket for each connection, the transaction ID munging isn't
needed for TCP anyway.)
- yp_dblookup.c: Create non-DB specific database access functions.
Using these allows access to the underlying database functions without
needing explicit knowledge of Berkeley DB. (These are used only
when DB_CACHE is #defined. Other programs that use the non-caching
functions (yp_mkdb, ypxfr, yppush, rpc.yppasswdd) shouldn't notice
the difference.)
- yp_dnslookup: Implement async DNS lookups. We send our own DNS
requests using UDP and put the request in a queue. When the response
arrives, we use the ID in the header to find the corresponsing queue
entry and then send the response to the client. We can go about our
business and handle other YP requests in the meantime. This way, we
can deal with time consuming DNS requests without blocking and without
forking.
- yp_server.c: Convert to using new non-DB-specific database access
functions. This simplifies the code a bit and removes the need for
this module to know anything about Berkeley DB. Also convert the
ypproc_match_2_svc() function to use the async DNS lookup routines.
- yp_main.c: tweak yp_svc_run() to add the resolver socket to the
set of descriptors monitored in the select() loop. Also add a
timeout to select(); we may get stale DNS requests stuck in the
queue which we want to invalidate after a while. If the timeout
hits, we decrement the ttl on all pending DNS requests and nuke
those requests that aren't handled before ttl hits zero.
- yp_extern.h: Add prototypes for new stuff.
- yp_svc_udp.c (new file): The async resolver code needs to be able
to rummage around inside the RPC UDP transport handle in order to
work correcty. There's basically one transport handle, and each time
a request comes in, the transaction ID in the handle is changed.
This means that if we queue a DNS request, then we handle some other
unrelated requests, we will be unable to send the DNS response because
the transaction ID and remote address of the client that made the DNS
request will have been lost. What we need to do is save the client
address and transaction ID in the queue entry for the DNS request,
then put the transaction ID and address back in the transport handle
when we're ready to reply. (And then we have to undo the change so
as not to confuse any other part of the server.) The trouble is that
the transaction ID is hidden in an opaque part of the transport handle,
and only the code in the svc_udp module in the RPC library knows how
to handle it. This file contains a couple of functions that let us
read and set the transaction ID in spite of this. This is really a
dirty trick and I should be taken out and shot for even thinking about
it, but there's no other way to get this stuff to work.
