Do not call constructors for filtees loaded during the early
relocation processing before image is initialized enough to run
user-provided code. Filtees are loaded using dlopen_object(), which
normally performs relocation and initialization. If filtee is
lazy-loaded during the relocation of dso needed by the main object,
dlopen_object() runs too earlier, when most runtime services are not

Postpone the constructors call to the time when main binary and
depended libraries constructors are run, passing the new flag
RTLD_LO_EARLY to dlopen_object(). Symbol lookups callers inform
symlook_* functions about early stage of initialization with

Traditional FreeBSD crt1 calls _init and _fini of the binary, instead
of allowing runtime linker to arrange the calls. This was probably
done to have the same crt code serve both statically and dynamically
linked binaries. Since ABI mandates that first is called preinit
array functions, then init, and then init array functions, the init
have to be called from rtld now.
To provide binary compatibility to old FreeBSD crt1, which calls _init
itself, rtld only calls intializers and finalizers for main binary if
binary has a note indicating that new crt was used for linking. Add
parsing of ELF notes to rtld, and cache p_osrel value since we parsed
it anyway.
The patch is inspired by init_array support for DragonflyBSD, written

the block counter would rollover to 0 if a file larger
than 65535 blocks was transferred. With the default block size
of 512 octets per block, this is a file size of approximately 32 megabytes.
The new TFTP server code would report an error and stop transferring

This patch restores the old TFTP server's behavior to the new
TFTP server code. If a TFTP client transfers a file larger
than 65535 blocks, and does *not* specify the "rollover" option,
then automatically rollover the block counter to 0 every time
we reach 65535 blocks.
This restores interoperability with the FreeBSD 6 TFTP client.
Without this change, if a FreeBSD 6 TFTP client tried to
retrieve a file larger than 65535 blocks from a FreeBSD 9 TFTP server
, the transfer would fail.
The same file could be retrieved successfully if the same FreeBSD 6
TFTP client was used against a FreeBSD 6 TFTP server.

lot better than what's in the tree now. Edwin tested it at a prior
employer, but can't test it today. I've found that it works a lot
better with the various uboot versions that I've used in my embedded
work. Here's the pkg-descr from the port that describes the changes:
It all started when we got some new routers, which told me the
following when trying to upload configuration or download images
from it: The TFTP server doesn't support the blocksize option.
My curiousity was triggered, it took me some reading of RFCs and
other documentation to find out what was possible and what could
be done. Was plain TFTP very simple in its handshake, TFTP with
options was kind of messy because of its backwards capability: The
first packet returned could either be an acknowledgement of options,
or the first data packet.
Going through the source code of src/libexec/tftpd and going through
the code of src/usr.bin/tftp showed that there was a lot of duplicate
code, and the addition of options would only increase the amount
of duplicate code. After all, both the client and the server can
act as a sender and receiver.
At the end, it ended up with a nearly complete rewrite of the tftp
client and server. It has been tested against the following TFTP
clients and servers:
- Itself (yay!)
- The standard FreeBSD tftp client and server
- The Fedora Core 6 tftp client and server
- Cisco router tftp client
- Extreme Networks tftp client
It supports the following RFCs:
RFC1350 - THE TFTP PROTOCOL (REVISION 2)
RFC2347 - TFTP Option Extension
RFC2348 - TFTP Blocksize Option
RFC2349 - TFTP Timeout Interval and Transfer Size Options
RFC3617 - Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) Scheme and Applicability
Statement for the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
It supports the following unofficial TFTP Options as described at
http://www.compuphase.com/tftp.htm:
blksize2 - Block size restricted to powers of 2, excluding protocol headers
rollover - Block counter roll-over (roll back to zero or to one)
From the tftp program point of view the following things are changed:
- New commands: "blocksize", "blocksize2", "rollover" and "options"
- Development features: "debug" and "packetdrop"
If you try this tftp/tftpd implementation, please let me know if
it works (or doesn't work) and against which implementaion so I can
get a list of confirmed working systems.

64-bit quota sizes by scaling down the sizes by the minimum amount
necessary to fit in a 32-bit field and then upscale the filesystem
block size to compensate. For example, if the hard block limit is
0x300000008 then we set the hard block limit to 0xA0000002 and claim
that the blocksize is 4 * DEV_BSIZE. This will lose the minimal
amount of information thus delivering nearly correct answers.
o Use obj->tlsinitsize to determine whether there's initialized data.
o If obj->tlssize > obj->tlsinitsize, then bzero uninitialized data.
o Don't exclude variant I from the work-around in free_tls_offset().
This makes it a little easier to figure out which application was
responsible for this log entry. Ideally we should add an ut_process or
something similar.

Also perform a small cleanup to ftpd_logwtmp(). Just use a NULL
parameter for the username to indicate a logout, instead of an empty
string.

The ttyslot() function was originally part for SUSv1, marked LEGACY in
SUSv2 and removed later on. This function only makes sense when using
utmp(5), because it was used to determine the offset of the record for
the controlling TTY. It makes little sense to keep it here, because the
new utmpx file format doesn't index based on TTY slots.
Unfortunately I have to partially wreck its functionality, though. ftpd
used to keep a file descriptor to the wtmp, which allowed it to work
from within a chroot. The current utmpx implementation doesn't offer a
way to do this. Maybe we can address this in the future, if it turns out
to be a real issue.
It seems comsat stats the utmpx database each 15 seconds to see whether
it has been changed. I am changing this behaviour to look at the utmpx
database upon processing. I don't want to allow direct interference with
the database files. I also wonder whether this optimization has any
measurable performance benefit nowadays.
- It shouldn't call logwtmp(). Applications like login(1) already make
sure both login and logout entries are written to the storage.
- There's no need to restore permissions on the pseudo-terminal, since
it should be garbage collected by the kernel.
Just like bin/ and sbin/, I think setting WARNS to the highest value
possible will make it more attractive for people to fix warnings.
- The WARNS variable is set in the Makefile in the directory of the
application itself, making it more likely that it will be removed out
of curiosity to see what happens.
- New applications will most likely build with WARNS=6 out of the box,
because the author would more likely fix the warnings during
development than lower WARNS.
Unfortunately almost all apps in libexec require a lowered value of
WARNS.
