# 231118 07-Feb-2012 dim

Consistently set RPCGEN_CPP when running rpcgen, so the C preprocessor
set via ${CPP} is used, instead of always using hardcoded /usr/bin/cpp.

MFC after: 1 week


# 201390 02-Jan-2010 ed

The last big commit: let usr.sbin/ use WARNS=6 by default.


# 136678 18-Oct-2004 ru

Utilize FILES, SCRIPTS, and SYMLINKS. While here, fixed a bug in
the implementation of the following feature in revision 1.4:

- Install Makefile.yp as /var/yp/Makefile.dist and link it to
/var/yp/Makefile only if /var/yp/Makefile doesn't already exist.
Suggested by Peter Wemm.

The actual code was only symlinking when no /var/yp/Makefile.dist
existed, i.e., never.

# 33250 11-Feb-1998 wpaul

Fix a bug in the database handle caching. This has to do with the way the
underlying database code works. When dealing with first/next queries, you
have the notion of a database 'cursor,' which is essentially a file pointer
for the database. To select the first entry, you do a fetch with the
R_FIRST flag set, then you can use the R_NEXT flag to enumerate the other
entries in the database. Unfortunately, doing a direct fetch with no flag
does _not_ set the 'cursor,' so you can't do a direct fetch and then
enumerate the table from there.

The bug is that cached handles generated as the result of a YPPROC_MATCH
were being treated as though they were the same as handles generated by
a YPPROC_FIRST, which is not the case. The manifestation is that if you
do a 'ypmatch first-key-in-map map' followed by a yp_first()/yp_next()
pair, the yp_first() and yp_next() both return the first key in the
table, which makes the entry appear to be duplicated.

A couple smaller things since I'm here:

- yp_main.c and yp_error.c both have a global 'int debug' in them.
For some reason, our cc/ld doesn't flag this as a multiply defined
symbol even though it should. Removed the declaration from yp_main.c;
we want the one in yp_error.c.

- The Makefile wasn't installing ypinit in the right place.


# 31110 10-Nov-1997 wpaul

Add a ypinit script and man page (script lifted from OpenBSD and haqued
to work on FreeBSD, man page written by me.)

Also change Makefile.yp a little to be more tolerane in the face of
missing source files. Print a message if we can't find /var/yp/master.passwd
telling the user what to do to fix things.


# 22997 22-Feb-1997 peter

Revert $FreeBSD$ to $Id$


# 21673 14-Jan-1997 jkh

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.


# 20818 22-Dec-1996 wpaul

Big round o changes:

- 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.

- Makefile: add yp_svc_udp.c to SRCS.


# 20100 03-Dec-1996 wpaul

Back out the non-forking YPPROC_ALL stuff. Whatever drugs I was doing
when I came up with this idea weren't strong enough to help me see it
through. If this was a self-contained application and I had complete
control over what data got sent through what socket and when, I might
be able to get everything to work right without blocking, but instead
I have RPC/XDR in between me and the socket layer, and they have their
own ideas about what to do.

Maybe one day I'll go totally mad and figure out the right way to do
this; in the meantime this mess goes on the back burner.


# 20053 30-Nov-1996 wpaul

This commit changes the YPPROC_ALL procecdure so that it handles requests
_without_ using fork().

The problem with YPPROC_ALL is that it transmits an entire map through
a TCP pipe as the result of a single RPC call. First of all, this requires
certain hackery in the XDR filter. Second, if the map being sent is
large, the server can end up spending lots of time in the XDR filter
sending to just the one client, while requests for other clients will
go unanswered.

My original solution for this was to fork() the request into a child
process which terminates after the map has been transmitted (or the
transfer is interrupted due to an error). This leaves the parent free
to handle other requests. But this solution is kind of lame: fork()
is relatively expensive, and we have to keep a cap on the number of
child processes to keep from swamping the system.

What we do now is grab control of the service transport handle and XDR
handle from the RPC library and send the records one at a time ourselves
instead of letting the RPC library do it. We send a record, then go
back to the svc_run() loop and select() on the socket. If select() says
we can still write data, we send the next record. Then we call
svc_getreqset() and handle other RPCs and loop around again. This way,
we can handle other RPCs between records.

We manage multiple YPPROC_ALL requests using a circular queue. When a
request is done, we dequeue it and destroy the handle. We also tag
each request with a ttl which is decremented whevever we run the queue
and a handle isn't serviced. This lets us nuke requests that have sat
idle for too long (if we didn't do this, we might run out of socket
descriptors.)

Now all I have to do is come up with an async resolver, and ypserv
won't need to fork() at all. :)

Note: these changes should not go into 2.2 unless they get a very
throrough shakedown before the final cutoff date.


# 18305 14-Sep-1996 wpaul

Toss the mkaliases script into the attic and remove its install
target from the Makefile. We don't need it anymore, and it was
broken anyway.


# 16732 25-Jun-1996 wpaul

Toss old mknetid script into the attic.

Adjust things slightly to support the new mknetid program.


# 15426 28-Apr-1996 wpaul

Performance enhancements (I hope) and new stuff:

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.
Contributed by Mike Murphy (mrm@sceard.com).

- Make default location for the netgroups source file be /var/yp/netgroup
instead of /etc/netgroup.

mkaliases:

- New file: script to generate mail.alias map.
Contributed by Mike Murphy (mrm@sceard.com).

Makefile:

- Install Makefile.yp as /var/yp/Makefile.dist and link it to
/var/yp/Makefile only if /var/yp/Makefile doesn't already exist.
Suggested by Peter Wemm.

- Install new mkaliases script in /usr/libexec along with mknetid.

- Use somewhat saner approach to generating rpcgen-dependent files
as suggested by Garrett Wollman.


# 12997 23-Dec-1995 wpaul

A few small tweaks related to ypxfr:

- Add a ypxfr_callback() function that we can use to signal failure to
yppush(8) in the event that we can't fork()/exec() ypxfr(8). yppush
only checks the return status from YPPROC_XFR enough to determine
that the RPC succeded: it relies on its callback service to figure
out whether or not the transfer actually worked.

- Give yp_dblookup.c its own debug variable (ypdb_debug) so that DB
access debugging messages can be turned on or off independent of the
program's global debug messages.

- Have the Makefile rpcgen the ypushresp_xfr_1() client stub for us and
nuke the unneeded rule for yp_xdr.c that I left in by mistake (the XDR
filters live in libc now).


# 12902 16-Dec-1995 bde

Fixed building in obj directory.


# 12892 16-Dec-1995 wpaul

This commit was generated by cvs2svn to compensate for changes in r12891,
which included commits to RCS files with non-trunk default branches.


# 12891 16-Dec-1995 wpaul

Import the new, non-GPL ypserv, written by yours truly. Functionally
equivalent to the old ypserv, except that it doesn't support the
-p [port] option to force the server to use a particular port.

The server stubs and yp.h header file are auto-generated from the yp.x
protocol definition file. The auto-generated XDR routines in libc/yp
are also used. The database access code has been broken out into a
seperate module so that other NIS utilities (ypxfr in particular)
can use it.

Note that the old mknetid script is being temporarily moved here; it
will be replaced by an mknetid program which will eventually have
a home under /usr/src/libexec. (The existing script is actually
somewhat broken -- it doesn't handle hosts -- but this isn't a big
deal at this point since the netid.byname map is really only useful
fopr Secure RPC, which we don't have yet.)
