when receiving the oob message. This made SIOCATMARK return always 0 since
the oob message was cleared. Instead, use recvmsg(2) to determine if
the message was oob or not. This works with both the old and new kernel
and it is not racy.
avoid passing the same pointer in multiple arguments for restrict
marked arguments:
- sigaction() wants separate in/out
- use memmove() not memcpy() for overlapping regions (this may fix
a real bug in nvi -- but it seems unlikely)
- select() wants separate read/write/except
- sigprocmask() wants separate set/oset
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 function speed(), imported from 4.4BSD-Lite2, has never been
used by NetBSD. Obtained from FreeBSD.
* Finish removing -L (litout) option. This has not been supported
since rev. 1.5 (NetBSD 1.0). The option still appeared in the
usage and man page. Obtained from FreeBSD.
* In function doit(), dead code imported from 4.4BSD-Lite2, dealing
with termios. NetBSD cracked this nut differently long before this
import. Obtained from FreeBSD.
adding support for Heimdal/KTH Kerberos where easy to do so. Eliminate
bsd.crypto.mk.
There is still a bunch more work to do, but crypto is now more-or-less
fully merged into the base NetBSD distribution.
