Tests that start daemons have to "wait" for them to start.
This commit makes Heimdal daemons prep to detach (when requested) by
forking early, then having the child signal readiness to the parent when
the child really is ready. The parent exits only which the child is
ready. This means that tests will no longer need to wait for daemons.
However, tests will still need a pidfile or such so they can stop the
daemons.
Note that the --detach options should not be used on OS X from launchd,
only from tests.
We should not hold locks on the master's database while waiting
for network I/O which may take a terribly long time to complete as
this will block out all writers and could therefore be slightly
problematic. ipropd-master was holding a shared lock on the database
while sending a complete propation to slaves which are out of sync
with the log file. We fix this by writing what we intend to send
in record format into a file hdb_db_dir()/ipropd.dumpfile while
holding a shared lock on the database and then we send the contents
of the file after releasing the lock. We also save and re-use the file
that we generated during future complete propagation events as long
as the log is long enough to get us back to the state previously
dumped.
We turn on a few extra warnings and fix the fallout that occurs
when building with --enable-developer. Note that we get different
warnings on different machines and so this will be a work in
progress. So far, we have built on NetBSD/amd64 5.99.64 (which
uses gcc 4.5.3) and Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS (which uses gcc 4.4.3).
Notably, we fixed
1. a lot of missing structure initialisers,
2. unchecked return values for functions that glibc
marks as __attribute__((warn-unused-result)),
3. made minor modifications to slc and asn1_compile
which can generate code which generates warnings,
and
4. a few stragglers here and there.
We turned off the extended warnings for many programs in appl/ as
they are nearing the end of their useful lifetime, e.g. rsh, rcp,
popper, ftp and telnet.
Interestingly, glibc's strncmp() macro needed to be worked around
whereas the function calls did not.
We have not yet tried this on 32 bit platforms, so there will be
a few more warnings when we do.
The ipropd_slave will log its status to /var/heimdal/ipropd-slave-status
if its connecting, up to date, or disconnected.
The master will now also confirm to slaves that are are in fact up to date
if they just restart, before there was no confirmation, the slave just didn't
get any deltas.
Johan Gadsjö did a awesome analysis of the LDAP access pattens
and sent us a patch that reduced the calls the ldap server by 4
times as many. The patch was adopted and change to avoid compile
time depencies and make the determination runtime instead. Thanks!
- make slaves get the whole new database if they have a newer log the
the master (and thus have them go back in time).
