We recently started making more use of malloc_usable_size() and rely on
it (see the string_erase() story). Given that we don't really support
sytems where malloc_usable_size() cannot be trusted beyond statistics
anyway, let's go fully in and rework GREEDY_REALLOC() on top of it:
instead of passing around and maintaining the currenly allocated size
everywhere, let's just derive it automatically from
malloc_usable_size().
I am mostly after this for the simplicity this brings. It also brings
minor efficiency improvements I guess, but things become so much nicer
to look at if we can avoid these allocation size variables everywhere.
Note that the malloc_usable_size() man page says relying on it wasn't
"good programming practice", but I think it does this for reasons that
don't apply here: the greedy realloc logic specifically doesn't rely on
the returned extra size, beyond the fact that it is equal or larger than
what was requested.
(This commit was supposed to be a quick patch btw, but apparently we use
the greedy realloc stuff quite a bit across the codebase, so this ends
up touching *a*lot* of code.)
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1035#section-2.3.1 says (approximately)
that only letters, numbers, and non-leading non-trailing dashes are allowed
(for entries with A/AAAA records). We set no restrictions.
hosts(5) says:
> Host names may contain only alphanumeric characters, minus signs ("-"), and
> periods ("."). They must begin with an alphabetic character and end with an
> alphanumeric character.
nss-files follows those rules, and will ignore names in /etc/hosts that do not
follow this rule.
Let's follow the documented rules for /etc/hosts. In particular, this makes us
consitent with nss-files, reducing surprises for the user.
I'm pretty sure we should apply stricter filtering to names received over DNS
and LLMNR and MDNS, but it's a bigger project, because the rules differ
depepending on which level the label appears (rules for top-level names are
stricter), and this patch takes the minimalistic approach and only changes
behaviour for /etc/hosts.
Escape syntax is also disallowed in /etc/hosts, even if the resulting character
would be allowed. Other tools that parse /etc/hosts do not support this, and
there is no need to use it because no allowed characters benefit from escaping.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
- linux does not accept prefixes for SLAAC unequal to 64 bits: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/ipv6/addrconf.c#L2741
- when networkd tries export such a route to the kernel it will get -EINVAL and
set the whole device into a failed state.
- this patch will make networkd ignore such prefixes for SLAAC,
but process other informations which may contain other prefixes.
- Note that rfc4862 does not forbid prefix length != 64 bit
This adds in4_addr_is_localhost() and in4_addr_is_link_local() that only take
an IPv4 "struct in_addr", to match in_addr_is_localhost() and
in_addr_is_link_local() that that a "union in_addr_union".
This matches the existing in4_addr_is_null() call that already exists.
For IPv6 glibc already exports a set of macros, hence we don't add similar
functions in6_addr_is_localhost(). We also drop in6_addr_is_null() as
IN6_IS_ADDR_UNSPECIFIED() already provides that.
This reworks sd-ndisc and networkd substantially to support IPv6 RA much more
comprehensively. Since the API is extended quite a bit networkd has been ported
over too, and the patch is not as straight-forward as one could wish. The
rework includes:
- Support for DNSSL, RDNSS and RA routing options in sd-ndisc and networkd. Two
new configuration options have been added to networkd to make this
configurable.
- sd-ndisc now exposes an sd_ndisc_router object that encapsulates a full RA
message, and has direct, friendly acessor functions for the singleton RA
properties, as well as an iterative interface to iterate through known and
unsupported options. The router object may either be retrieved from the wire,
or generated from raw data. In many ways the sd-ndisc API now matches the
sd-lldp API, except that no implicit database of seen data is kept. (Note
that sd-ndisc actually had a half-written, but unused implementaiton of such
a store, which is removed now.)
- sd-ndisc will now collect the reception timestamps of RA, which is useful to
make sd_ndisc_router fully descriptive of what it covers.
Fixes: #1079
