# 183039 15-Sep-2008 dfr

Fix async mode (required for ypbind in manycast mode).


# 181344 06-Aug-2008 dfr

Add an implementation of the RPCSEC_GSS authentication protocol for RPC. This
is based on an old implementation from the University of Michigan with lots of
changes and fixes by me and the addition of a Solaris-compatible API.

# 167199 04-Mar-2007 simon

Disable RPC exponential back-off for FreeBSD.org systems (IE. hidden
behind _FREEFALL_CONFIG). This is done mainly to make NIS even more
resistant to packet loss.

This is not enabled by default for "normal" FreeBSD since it might cause
the server providing the RPC service to be hit heavily with RPC traffic
in case of problems. freefall.FreeBSD.org and hub.FreeBSD.org have been
running with a patch similar to this for a couple of weeks.

# 121654 29-Oct-2003 mbr

Make this part identical with NetBSD: Use recvlen instead of inlen.
No functionality change.

Obtained from: NetBSD


# 105189 15-Oct-2002 iedowse

Use kqueue(2) instead of poll(2) to wait for replies and timeouts
in the UDP RPC client code. As a side-effect, this fixes some bugs
that might prevent the RPC call from ever timing out for example
if the server keeps responding with the wrong xid. This could
probably be simplified further by using the EVFILT_TIMER filter.


# 99996 14-Jul-2002 alfred

Silence several warnings due to functions that needed to take a void *
having a char * as an argument instead. clnt_dg_control(), clnt_raw_control(),
clnt_vc_control().


# 95658 28-Apr-2002 des

Spell void * as void * rather than caddr_t. This is complicated by the
fact that caddr_t is often misspelled as char *.

# 90868 18-Feb-2002 mike

o Move NTOHL() and associated macros into <sys/param.h>. These are
deprecated in favor of the POSIX-defined lowercase variants.
o Change all occurrences of NTOHL() and associated marcros in the
source tree to use the lowercase function variants.
o Add missing license bits to sparc64's <machine/endian.h>.
Approved by: jake
o Clean up <machine/endian.h> files.
o Remove unused __uint16_swap_uint32() from i386's <machine/endian.h>.
o Remove prototypes for non-existent bswapXX() functions.
o Include <machine/endian.h> in <arpa/inet.h> to define the
POSIX-required ntohl() family of functions.
o Do similar things to expose the ntohl() family in libstand, <netinet/in.h>,
and <sys/param.h>.
o Prepend underscores to the ntohl() family to help deal with
complexities associated with having MD (asm and inline) versions, and
having to prevent exposure of these functions in other headers that
happen to make use of endian-specific defines.
o Create weak aliases to the canonical function name to help deal with
third-party software forgetting to include an appropriate header.
o Remove some now unneeded pollution from <sys/types.h>.
o Add missing <arpa/inet.h> includes in userland.

# 78678 23-Jun-2001 iedowse

Add a new clnt_control() request `CLSET_CONNECT' that controls
whether or not connect(2) is used for UDP client sockets. The default
is not to connect(), so existing clients will see no change in
behaviour.

The use of connect(2) for UDP clients has a number of advantages:
only replies from the intended address are received, and ICMP errors
pertaining to the connection are reported back to the application.


# 76824 18-May-2001 iedowse

The function clnt_dg_call(), which is used for UDP RPC calls, could
accidentally clobber the server address if a stray packet arrived
at the client port. This would result in any further retransmits
going to the wrong address.

For now, fix this by not saving the source address of the reply; this
matches the pre-tirpc behaviour.


# 75144 03-Apr-2001 iedowse

Remove some hacks that were apparently added to avoid problems with
RPC clients hanging. The real problem turned out to be missing
cleanup code; this was fixed in clnt_vc.c r1.5 and clnt_dg.c r1.4.

# 75097 02-Apr-2001 iedowse

There were a few error cases where the RPC code would return with
all signals masked (whoops). Add the missing cleanup code.

# 75094 02-Apr-2001 iedowse

Move the #includes of reentrant.h to after the `#include "namespace.h"',
so that the underscored versions of the pthread functions get
declared. This removes around 300 lines of 'implicit declaration
of XXX' warnings from the output of a libc build with -Wall.

# 74879 27-Mar-2001 wpaul

Add a CLSET_ASYNC command, which allows us to (ab)use the clnt_dg transport
to make asynchronous RPCs. This is needed to help fix ypbind, which can no
longer override the clnt_dg_call() method (formerly the clntudp_call()
method) due to all the internal descriptor locking code in TI-RPC. Turning
on this flag allows us to send an RPC request, then return immediately,
and handle a reply later, rather than being forced to do the request
and reply in a single function call.

Also fix a byte ordering bug: when clnt_dg_call() increments the XID
prior to transmitting a request, it uses the raw value, which is wrong.
The XID is stored in network byte order, i.e. big-endian. The CLSET_XID
and CLGET_XID commands in clnt_dg_control() use ntohl()/htonl() to get
the byte ordering right, but because clnt_dg_call() does not do this,
using CLSET_XID/CLGET_XID doesn't actually work, unless you're on a
big endian host, which we aren't (yet). Fix clnt_dg_call() to byte swap
properly when doing the increment.


# 74462 19-Mar-2001 alfred

Bring in a hybrid of SunSoft's transport-independent RPC (TI-RPC) and
associated changes that had to happen to make this possible as well as
bugs fixed along the way.

Bring in required TLI library routines to support this.

Since we don't support TLI we've essentially copied what NetBSD
has done, adding a thin layer to emulate direct the TLI calls
into BSD socket calls.

This is mostly from Sun's tirpc release that was made in 1994,
however some fixes were backported from the 1999 release (supposedly
only made available after this porting effort was underway).

The submitter has agreed to continue on and bring us up to the
1999 release.

Several key features are introduced with this update:
Client calls are thread safe. (1999 code has server side thread
safe)
Updated, a more modern interface.

Many userland updates were done to bring the code up to par with
the recent RPC API.

There is an update to the pthreads library, a function
pthread_main_np() was added to emulate a function of Sun's threads
library.

While we're at it, bring in NetBSD's lockd, it's been far too
long of a wait.

New rpcbind(8) replaces portmap(8) (supporting communication over
an authenticated Unix-domain socket, and by default only allowing
set and unset requests over that channel). It's much more secure
than the old portmapper.

Umount(8), mountd(8), mount_nfs(8), nfsd(8) have also been upgraded
to support TI-RPC and to support IPV6.

Umount(8) is also fixed to unmount pathnames longer than 80 chars,
which are currently truncated by the Kernel statfs structure.
