that conflicted with libc. We changed them to lgetchar() and xputchar()
respectively; larn 12.2 changed them to ttgetch() and ttputch(). After
reflecting on this for a while I've decided to adopt the larn 12.2
names; not so much for compatibility but for consistency going forward.
So, massrename them. Also make ttputch() static.
Most of this code was removed ages ago, probably when dm(6) was invented;
long before -r1.1 in the NetBSD tree in any event.
Now remove the last fragment of it.
Also nuke the file of US holidays 1987-1993 that we've been carrying
around for no reason.
prime and the previous prime. [I needed that for some reason I don't recall
and these changes lying about. Since they might be useful/interesting to
someone, I might as well as commit them.]
This patch dates (mostly) back to 2002; the critical parts of it were
handled back then by security-officer. As far as I know, there's
nothing exploitable fixed herein.
A slightly earlier version of this patch was reviewed by Christian Biere
when I filed it as PR 34750.
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.
