int getline(FILE *stream, char *buf, size_t buflen, const char **errormsg)
Read a line from the FILE stream into buf/buflen using fgets(), so up
to buflen-1 chars will be read and the result will be NUL terminated.
If the line has a trailing newline it will be removed.
If the line is too long, excess characters will be read until
newline/EOF/error.
Various -ve return values indicate different errors, and errormsg
will be changed to an error description if it's not NULL.
Convert to use getline() instead of fgets() whenever reading user input
to ensure that an overly long input line doesn't leave excess characters
for the next input operation to accidentally use as input.
Zero out the password & account after we've finished with it.
Consistently use getpass(3) (i.e, character echo suppressed) when
reading the account data. For some reason, historically the "login"
code suppressed echo for Account: yet the "user" command did not!
Display the hostname in the "getaddrinfo failed" warning.
Appease some -Wcast-qual warnings. Fixing all of these requires
significant code refactoring. (mmm, legacy code).
realpath(3) on non-NetBSD systems may fail if the target filename doesn't
exist, so instead use realpath(3) on the parent directory of `file'.
Per discussion with Todd Eigenschink.
connect(2) in xconnect() by temporarily setting O_NONBLOCK
on the socket and using xpoll() to wait for the operation
to succeed.
The timeout used is the '-q quittime' argument (defaults to
60s for accept(2), and the system default for connect(2)).
Idea inspired by discussion with Chuck Cranor.
This may (indirectly) fix various problems with timeouts
in active mode through broken firewalls.
Implement xpoll() as a wrapper around poll(2), to make it
easier to replace on systems without a functional poll(2).
Unconditionally use xpoll() instead of conditionally using
select(2) or poll(2).
making functions that should be static be static, and cleaning up
const usage. Added a guard against buffer overflow, but the domap function
is a bit too complicated for me to tackle right now. I will leave it
to the author; hi luke!
