2023-10-30crypt: Remove libcrypt supportAdhemerval Zanella1-2/+2
All the crypt related functions, cryptographic algorithms, and make requirements are removed, with only the exception of md5 implementation which is moved to locale folder since it is required by localedef for integrity protection (libc's locale-reading code does not check these, but localedef does generate them). Besides thec code itself, both internal documentation and the manual is also adjusted. This allows to remove both --enable-crypt and --enable-nss-crypt configure options. Checked with a build for all affected ABIs. Co-authored-by: Zack Weinberg <zack@owlfolio.org> Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
2021-04-13Improve documentation for malloc etc. (BZ#27719)Paul Eggert1-1/+1
Cover key corner cases (e.g., whether errno is set) that are well settled in glibc, fix some examples to avoid integer overflow, and update some other dated examples (code needed for K&R C, e.g.). * manual/charset.texi (Non-reentrant String Conversion): * manual/filesys.texi (Symbolic Links): * manual/memory.texi (Allocating Cleared Space): * manual/socket.texi (Host Names): * manual/string.texi (Concatenating Strings): * manual/users.texi (Setting Groups): Use reallocarray instead of realloc, to avoid integer overflow issues. * manual/filesys.texi (Scanning Directory Content): * manual/memory.texi (The GNU Allocator, Hooks for Malloc): * manual/tunables.texi: Use code font for 'malloc' instead of roman font. (Symbolic Links): Don't assume readlink return value fits in 'int'. * manual/memory.texi (Memory Allocation and C, Basic Allocation) (Malloc Examples, Alloca Example): * manual/stdio.texi (Formatted Output Functions): * manual/string.texi (Concatenating Strings, Collation Functions): Omit pointer casts that are needed only in ancient K&R C. * manual/memory.texi (Basic Allocation): Say that malloc sets errno on failure. Say "convert" rather than "cast", since casts are no longer needed. * manual/memory.texi (Basic Allocation): * manual/string.texi (Concatenating Strings): In examples, use C99 declarations after statements for brevity. * manual/memory.texi (Malloc Examples): Add portability notes for malloc (0), errno setting, and PTRDIFF_MAX. (Changing Block Size): Say that realloc (p, 0) acts like (p ? (free (p), NULL) : malloc (0)). Add xreallocarray example, since other examples can use it. Add portability notes for realloc (0, 0), realloc (p, 0), PTRDIFF_MAX, and improve notes for reallocating to the same size. (Allocating Cleared Space): Reword now-confusing discussion about replacement, and xref "Replacing malloc". * manual/stdio.texi (Formatted Output Functions): Don't assume message size fits in 'int'. * manual/string.texi (Concatenating Strings): Fix undefined behavior involving arithmetic on a freed pointer.
2019-08-05login: Remove utmp backend jump tables [BZ #23518]Florian Weimer1-10/+10
There is just one file-based implementation, so this dispatch mechanism is unnecessary. Instead of the vtable pointer __libc_utmp_jump_table, use a non-negative file_fd as the indicator that the backend is initialized.
2019-01-07manual: Use @code{errno} instead of @var{errno} [BZ #24063]Florian Weimer1-2/+2
@var is intended for placeholders (such as function parameters). Actual variables need to use @code because @var causes upper-case output, resulting in a different C identifier.
2018-06-29manual: Revise crypt.texi.Zack Weinberg1-5/+16
This is a major rewrite of the description of 'crypt', 'getentropy', and 'getrandom'. A few highlights of the content changes: - Throughout the manual, public headers, and user-visible messages, I replaced the term "password" with "passphrase", the term "password database" with "user database", and the term "encrypt(ion)" with "(one-way) hashing" whenever it was applied to passphrases. I didn't bother making this change in internal code or tests. The use of the term "password" in ruserpass.c survives, because that refers to a keyword in netrc files, but it is adjusted to make this clearer. There is a note in crypt.texi explaining that they were traditionally called passwords but single words are not good enough anymore, and a note in users.texi explaining that actual passphrase hashes are found in a "shadow" database nowadays. - There is a new short introduction to the "Cryptographic Functions" section, explaining how we do not intend to be a general-purpose cryptography library, and cautioning that there _are_, or have been, legal restrictions on the use of cryptography in many countries, without getting into any kind of detail that we can't promise to keep up to date. - I added more detail about what a "one-way function" is, and why they are used to obscure passphrases for storage. I removed the paragraph saying that systems not connected to a network need no user authentication, because that's a pretty rare situation nowadays. (It still says "sometimes it is necessary" to authenticate the user, though.) - I added documentation for all of the hash functions that glibc actually supports, but not for the additional hash functions supported by libxcrypt. If we're going to keep this manual section around after the transition is more advanced, it would probably make sense to add them then. - There is much more detailed discussion of how to generate a salt, and the failure behavior for crypt is documented. (Returning an invalid hash on failure is what libxcrypt does; Solar Designer's notes say that this was done "for compatibility with old programs that assume crypt can never fail".) - As far as I can tell, the header 'crypt.h' is entirely a GNU invention, and never existed on any other Unix lineage. The function 'crypt', however, was in Issue 1 of the SVID and is now in the XSI component of POSIX. I tried to make all of the @standards annotations consistent with this, but I'm not sure I got them perfectly right. - The genpass.c example has been improved to use getentropy instead of the current time to generate the salt, and to use a SHA-256 hash instead of MD5. It uses more random bytes than is strictly necessary because I didn't want to complicate the code with proper base64 encoding. - The testpass.c example has three hardwired hashes now, to demonstrate that different one-way functions produce different hashes for the same input. It also demonstrates how DES hashing only pays attention to the first eight characters of the input. - There is new text explaining in more detail how a CSPRNG differs from a regular random number generator, and how getentropy/getrandom are not exactly a CSPRNG. I tried not to make specific falsifiable claims here. I also tried to make the blocking/cancellation/error behavior of both getentropy and getrandom clearer.
2017-06-15manual: Replace summary.awk with summary.pl.Rical Jasan1-182/+99
The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is performed. If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete wrt. header and standards annotations. Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and standard combination. summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected syntax of @standards. If errors are reported, the user is directed to this feature for further information. * manual/Makefile: Generate summary.texi with summary.pl. Force use of the C locale. Update Perl dependency comment. * manual/header.texi: Update reference to summary.awk. * manual/macros.texi: Refer authors to `summary.pl --help'. * manual/summary.awk: Remove file. * manual/summary.pl: New file.

2016-12-21manual: Convert @tables of variables to @vtables.Rical Jasan1-23/+4
Texinfo @vindex commands add entries to the Variable and Constant Macro Index. Similarly, @items in @vtables are automatically indexed. A number of @tables exist where all @items are @vindexed or all @items are variables, but not indexed, suggesting an optimization by converting such @tables to @vtables and dropping the @vindex. Using a @vtable provides a context for processing @items whereby it can be known the @items should have header and standards annotations. This commit converts @tables of such @items to @vtables in order to establish a framework for automated processing. A pleasant consequence of these changes is that @items previously lacking a @vindex are present in the Variable and Constant Macro Index now. @vindex entries previously detected by summary.awk will still be detected as @items with appropriate annotations. The @vtable of the NSS databases is converted to a @table because 1) those @items are not variables (and will no longer appear in the Variable and Constant Macro Index) and 2) they do not need header and standards annotations, so the incorrect context is fixed. * manual/nss.texi: Change incorrect @vtable to @table. * manual/arith.texi: Convert @tables of variables to @vtables and remove unnecessary indexing. * manual/filesys.texi: Likewise. * manual/llio.texi: Likewise. * manual/memory.texi: Likewise. * manual/process.texi: Likewise. * manual/resource.texi: Likewise. * manual/search.texi: Likewise. * manual/signal.texi: Likewise. * manual/socket.texi: Likewise. * manual/stdio.texi: Likewise. * manual/sysinfo.texi: Likewise. * manual/syslog.texi: Likewise. * manual/terminal.texi: Likewise. * manual/time.texi: Likewise. * manual/users.texi: Likewise.
