In diffutils 2.6 and 2.7, diff3 -A complains about identical overlapping

Why bother? The patch below fixes this nonsense and preserves [B]ackwards

( To those who want to experience bug try running aub

perl script "requiring " <sys/socket.ph> or <sys/cdefs.ph> )
correctly (specified wrong fields to awk). Note that the files in question
are noe the local /etc/master.passwd and /etc/passwd files: this Makefile
expects there to be a seperate master.passwd file under /var/yp for NIS
database creation.
executes after it finishes updating the raw master.passwd file. The script
is just there to invoke /var/yp/Makefile to build new maps and yppush them.
We could have yppasswdd run /var/yp/Makefile directly, but this allws a bit
more flexibility: the user may decide to run some other commands too.
This is a ported/modified version of the yppush program from the
yps-0.21 package from the NYS project. This program is used to propagate
updated NIS maps from an NIS master to an NIS slave. It's normally invoked
by /var/yp/Makefile.
This version of yppush has been modified in the following ways:
- Cleared up several Linux/BSD incompatibilities, largely involving
header files.
- converted from GDBM to DB with extreme predjudice. (well, not really...)
- removed lots of ugly debugging code that really didn't do anyone any good.
- Fixed a couple of inaccurate/badly formatted error messages.
- Renamed some functions to avoid collisions with certain YP routines
hidden inside libc.
- Small signal handling kludge: Linux has different struct sigaction
that us.
- Incorporated some functions from the yps-0.21 library that yppush was
dependent on.
Like ypxfr, this works, but could use come cleaning up.
This is a ported/modified version of the ypxfr program from the yps-0.21
package from the NYS project. This program is normally invoked by ypserv
when it receives a yppush command from an NIS master. It can also be
run from the command line to grab copies of maps when initializing a
slave server.
This program has been hacked in the following ways:
- rpcgen'ed new yp_xdr.c, yp_svc.c and yp_clnt.c files. The old ones were
rather grody.
- Changed certain function names (prefended a _ to them) to avoid conflicts
with certain functions lurking within libc. One major problem here is
that ypxfr needs to bind to a YP master in order to work correctly,
but it can't use the _yp_bind function inside libc because that
function only lets you bind to a domain, not a specific host. Lots
of head scratching here.
- Converted from GDBM to DB at gunpoint.
- Removed lots of really nasty looking DEBUG code to try to reduce clutter.
- Incorporated some of the library code supplied with yps-0.21 on which
ypxfr was dependent.
This program still needs to be cleaned up just as a matter of principle:
I get all icky just looking at it sometimes.
This is a ported/modified version of yppasswd from the NYS yppasswd-0.5
package. This package has code in it from both Olaf Kirch and Theo
de Raadt. There are GPL references and BSD-style copyright all over the
place... hopefully I won't get flamed into oblivion for commiting this.
This program has been modified from the original in the following ways:
- Changed the ALLOW_CHFN and ALLOW_CHSH compile-time options into
run-time options.
- Demolished the password update functions and replaced them with
routines to handle FreeBSD-style passwordd databases. It is expected
that a seperate master.passwd file will be maintained for use with
the NIS maps. yppasswd will have to be told where it is:
% yppasswdd -m /var/yp/master.passwd
A /var/yp/passwd file will be generated from /var/yp/master.passwd by
/var/yp/Makefile. When yppasswdd has finished modifying the master.passwd
file, it will invoke /usr/libexec/yppwupdate, which is a script that
will run /var/yp/Makefile to generate new maps and push them.
Note that there are copies if pw_util.c and pw_copy.c here. This is
deliberate: they are *not* identical to the originals. Very similar, yes,
but not identical. *sigh*
This is a hacked-up port of the ypserv-0.11 server from the NYS project
written by Peter Eriksson.
The original package included some map creating and dumping tools and
was based on GDBM. This version has been modified in the following
ways:
- GDBM replaced with DB and many weird hacks made to the read_database()
function because of this.
- implimented the ypxfr service (using ypxfr from the yps-0.21 package,
aso from the NYS project)
- added code to check the TCP port from which NIS requests originate:
the server will refuse to serve the master.passwd.{byname|byuid} maps
if the request doesn't come from a privileged port. Normally, only the
superuser can issue such a request. Requests for the passwd.{bynam|byuid}
maps aren't affected. There will be a small change made to getpwent.c
in libc to complement this.
- added code to do DNS lookups via actual resolver queries instead of
relying on gethostbyname() and friends. The author noted in the original
documentation that a loop condition could arise where the server would
query itself for hostsname lookups. Using direct DNS lookups prevents
this from happening.
- added code to properly fork() the server into the background unless
invoked with the -debug flag.
- Added combined syslog/perror function.
- fixed a few bugs (which were probably introduced by all the other
changes)
- Created a bmake Makefile.
Note that this package can be linked against the tcp_wrapper package
to provide address-based authentication, but this isn't done by default
since the tcp_wrapper package isn't part of FreeBSD.
This program is used for both generating and dumping NIS maps. It's very
similar to the 'makedbm' command in SunOS. This program was ported from
the yps-0.21 package. It's close to the original except for the GDBM to
DB conversions. This was simple compared to the other YP components.
the version installed from /usr/share. It's hard to eliminate old versions
- few Makefiles have `uninstall' targets and sup/ctm tends to blow away
old Makefiles.
This Makefile needs more work. Stuff is built at install time...
Don't initialize CLEANFILES here. Many FONTFILES are sources and required

misfeature caused troubles when a program attempted to access a shlib

only include the highest-numbered shlib anyway, so this is in no way a
limitation of generality.

This might be useful for debugging applications that use a special LDT.
However, printing of all segment registers is currently broken.
Don't print "last exception: " before the FPU opcode and pc, etc. The
opcode and pc, etc., are for the last FPU _instruction_.
Pass the saved exception status word to print_387_status() so that the
exception(s) that caused or will cause a trap can be seen. The kernel
has supported this since 1.1 or before. The kernel still clobbers the
tag word if a trap occurs.
Remove unused null function clear_regs().
cvs is not being used effectively for gdb. Our old changes get clobbered

Gary Jennejohn, too studly for his own good, has finally come through with
the new, improved gdb 4.13. This gdb features:
o kgdb support - if this works (and I urge folks to test it), we can
finally purge the old and hateful version of kgdb from our source
tree.
o attach/detach support. See comments in README.FreeBSD for more
details.
o Well, it's newer. Our previous version was 4.11.
Comments and flames to gj, of course! :-)
Thanks, Gary. Much appreciated. The previous state of gdb/kgdb has been a
thorn in all of our sides for some time..

This fixes the problem with parse errors in header files when compiling C++

Recompiling libg++ also solves the undefined synbols problem.

When we get an EN8 response while we're already sending the file using
the i protocol, this can happen:
In send.c, flocal_send_await_reply() is called. This function calls
flocal_send_fail() to process the aborted transfer. After this, we run
into the branch that calls ffileseekend() to force the end of the
actual transfer.
Now flocal_send_fail() frees qtrans, but qtrans is still used later!
I propose to fix this by moving the usfree_send(qtrans) out of
flocal_send_fail(), as in the patch I append to this mail.
...
I have found a race condition in the uucp 1.05 code. The typical result
is that the connections mysteriously fails with "conversation failed",
even while all files were transmitted. This is the problem:
At least for the i protocol, the code to send a packet can receive and
process packets after sending.
In several places in the code, we send a command and then prepare to
receive an answer.
Now the answer might already arrive during the call that sends the
command while we aren't ready to process it.
The general solution is IMHO first to do all preparations and only as a
last step to send out the command.

I know that many of these entries are bogus and need to be revisited,
but let's get the tree working again for now and then do a pass through
looking at all the __FreeBSD__ entries, shall we?
GCC-2.6.1 COMES TO FREEBSD-current
----------------------------------
Everybody needs to 'make world'.
Oakland, Nov 2nd 1994. In a surprise move this sunny afternoon, the release-
engineer for the slightly delayed FreeBSD-2.0, Poul-Henning Kamp (28),
decided to pull in the new version 2.6.1 of the GNU C-compiler.
The new version of the compiler was release today at noon, and hardly 9
hours later it was committed into the FreeBSD-current source-repository.
"It's is simply because we have had too much trouble with the version 2.6.0
of the compiler" Poul-Henning told the FreeBSD-Gazette, "we took a gamble
when we decided to use that as our compiler for the 2.0 release, but it
seems to pay of in the end now" he concludes.
The move has not been discussed on the "core" list at all, and will come as
a surprise for most Poul-Hennings peers. "I have only discussed it with
Jordan [J. K. Hubbard, the FreeBSD's resident humourist], and we agreed that
we needed to do it, so ... I did it!". After a breath he added with a grin:
"My email will probably get an all time 'disk-full' now!".
This will bring quite a flag-day to the FreeBSD developers, the patch-file
is almost 1.4 Megabyte, and they will have to run "make world" to get
entirely -current again. "Too bad, but we just had to do this." Was
the only comment from Poul-Henning to these problems.
When asked how this move would impact the 2.0 release-date, Poul-Hennings
face grew dark, he mumbled some very Danish words while he moved his fingers
in strange geometrical patterns. Immediately something ecclipsed the Sun, a
minor tremor shook the buildings, and the temperature fell significantly.
We decided not to pursure the question.

We BADLY need somebody to look at the 'freebsd' OS in gcc, sanitize it and
carry the patches back to the GNU people. In particular, we need to get

gnu-dist into bmake-form, and will do that part.

Perl's scripts are still trying to execute perl out of /usr/gnu/bin/perl.
The hack Larry was using for h2ph.1 doesn't work with the new macros, so
make it a real man page.
Also, we weren't building the .ph files, add them as an afterinstall rule
in the x2p subdirectory.
