- make everything static

- consistently check for == -1 for syscall errors

- make error messages more consistent
- use sig_atomic_t for variable set inside signal handler
FORTIFY_SOURCE feature of libssp, thus checking the size of arguments to
various string and memory copy and set functions (as well as a few system
calls and other miscellany) where known at function entry. RedHat has
evidently built all "core system packages" with this option for some time.
This option should be used at the top of Makefiles (or Makefile.inc where
this is used for subdirectories) but after any setting of LIB.
This is only useful for userland code, and cannot be used in libc or in
any code which includes the libc internals, because it overrides certain
libc functions with macros. Some effort has been made to make USE_FORT=yes
work correctly for a full-system build by having the bsd.sys.mk logic
disable the feature where it should not be used (libc, libssp iteself,
the kernel) but no attempt has been made to build the entire system with
USE_FORT and doing so will doubtless expose numerous bugs and misfeatures.
Adjust the system build so that all programs and libraries that are setuid,
directly handle network data (including serial comm data), perform
authentication, or appear likely to have (or have a history of having)
data-driven bugs (e.g. file(1)) are built with USE_FORT=yes by default,
with the exception of libc, which cannot use USE_FORT and thus uses
only USE_SSP by default. Tested on i386 with no ill results; USE_FORT=no
per-directory or in a system build will disable if desired.
the Linux (BlueZ) API.
- L2CAP or RFCOMM connections can require the baseband radio link
mode be any of:
authenticated (devices are paired)
encrypted (implies authentication)
secured (encryption, plus generate new link key)
- for sockets, the mode is set using setsockopt(2) and the socket
connection will be aborted if the mode change fails.
- mode settings will be applied during connection establishment, and
for safety, we enter a wait state and will only proceed when the mode
settings are successfuly set.
- It is possible to change the mode on already open connections, but
not possible to guarantee that data already queued (from either end)
will not be delivered. (this is a feature, not a bug)
- bthidev(4) and rfcomm_sppd(1) support "auth", "encrypt" and
"secure" options
- btdevctl(8) by default enables "auth" for HIDs, and "encrypt" for
keyboards (which are required to support it)
- adds a server mode for incoming bluetooth connections
- does not cfmakeraw the slave tty as this caused problems
- does not hold open the slave tty as this prevented multiple opens
- modifies the termios for stdio so that this can be used directly
by a user.
NetBSD Foundation Membership still pending.) This stack was written by
Iain under sponsorship from Itronix Inc.
The stack includes support for rfcomm networking (networking via your
bluetooth enabled cell phone), hid devices (keyboards/mice), and headsets.
Drivers for both PCMCIA and USB bluetooth controllers are included.
