default. Only the former checks/fixes are done if no items are given
on the command line. The latter must be requested explicitely.
Intended for "fixes" that are dangerous in some way, because they might
remove files that are still in use, for example.
Make the "sendmail" item disabled by default, it removes sendmail
configuration. Partly addresses PR install/36180.

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 history buffer that require knowledge of the readline internals to
make safe (it "knows" that GNU readline mallocs certain returned data,
and thus, with libedit, happily calls free on static variables).
using a #define to turn one into the other, this is pointless and causes
more portability issues than it solves (admittedly, in the year 1702 when
this code was written the opposite may have been the case).
This allows the mouse to be used properly in consoles with different sizes:
before this change it was restricted to the size reported by the console
used to start the daemon.

be reclaimed from under while we are warming the getattr cache.
Shuffle some code to prevent the effects. Theoretically the race
is still possible, but I don't think it will happen in practice.
In any case, the code could benefit from some more dusting.
getattr are usually still outstanding when we already would like
the result. Instead of issueing another stat which will be serviced
only after all the other entries in the directory, record all the
outgoing readdir getattr buffers and if we encounter an outstanding
request when we need to fetch attrs, do a puffs_framev_framebuf_ccpromote()
wait for it instead of firing off the second query. This shaves
almost 10% off the time for ls -lR.
Also, get rid of the SUPERREADDIR conditional, since it has penetrated
the code quite a bit and the #ifdef SUPERREADDIRs were starting to
look like tagliatelle alla bolognese (n.b. I love how it looks,
but I wouldn't like it either if my tagliatelle alla bolognese
looked like psshfs code). Maybe it should be re-introduced in the
form of a switch?
a bit differently: when reading the directory, store all getattr
caching queries and fire off only when the directory read is
complete. That way the common sequence is not [readdir, lots of
async getattr requests, readdir EOF] but rather [readdir, readdir
EOF, lots of async getattr]. This speeds up ls -lR by about 25%
(on my LAN).
equal, larger, respectively instead of 0/1 for non/equal. This
will allow sorting the buffers for faster matching in libpuffs.
While here, change the name from respcmp to framecmp, as that better
reflects the purpose.
NOTE! there is no obvious way to make compilation fail for file
systems which may already be using this feature (although I don't
think there are any outside our tree, as the feature is two weeks
old). Nevertheless, non-updated file systems will fail very quickly.

This way we can use the IANA services file properly *and* be able to augment
it with our entries without needing to intersperse our fixes.
Bug fixes:
- Fix crash reported by Scott Ellis on current-users@.
- Fix race conditions in enforcing the Veriexec rename and remove
policies. These are NOT security issues.
- Fix memory leak in rename handling when overwriting a monitored
file.
- Fix table deletion logic.
- Don't prevent query requests if not in learning mode.
KPI updates:
- fileassoc_table_run() now takes a cookie to pass to the callback.
- veriexec_table_add() was removed, it is now done internally. As a
result, there's no longer a need for VERIEXEC_TABLESIZE.
- veriexec_report() was removed, it is now internal.
- Perform sanity checks on the entry type, and enforce default type
in veriexec_file_add() rather than in veriexecctl.
- Add veriexec_flush(), used to delete all Veriexec tables, and
veriexec_dump(), used to fill an array with all Veriexec entries.
New features:
- Add a '-k' flag to veriexecctl, to keep the filenames in the kernel
database. This allows Veriexec to produce slightly more accurate
logs under certain circumstances. In the future, this can be either
replaced by vnode->pathname translation, or combined with it.
- Add a VERIEXEC_DUMP ioctl, to dump the entire Veriexec database.
This can be used to recover a database if the file was lost.
Example usage:
# veriexecctl dump > /etc/signatures
Note that only entries with the filename kept (that is, were loaded
with the '-k' flag) will be dumped.
Idea from Brett Lymn.
- Add a VERIEXEC_FLUSH ioctl, to delete all Veriexec entries. Sample
usage:
# veriexecctl flush
- Add a 'veriexec_flags' rc(8) variable, and make its default have
the '-k' flag. On systems using the default signatures file
(generaetd from running 'veriexecgen' with no arguments), this will
use additional 32kb of kernel memory on average.
- Add a '-e' flag to veriexecctl, to evaluate the fingerprint during
load. This is done automatically for files marked as 'untrusted'.
Misc. stuff:
- The code for veriexecctl was massively simplified as a result of
eliminating the need for VERIEXEC_TABLESIZE, and now uses a single
pass of the signatures file, making the loading somewhat faster.
- Lots of minor fixes found using the (still under development)
Veriexec regression testsuite.
- Some of the messages Veriexec prints were improved.
- Various documentation fixes.
All relevant man-pages were updated to reflect the above changes.
Binary compatibility with existing veriexecctl binaries is maintained.
