| Series | nscd: Do not rebuild getaddrinfo (bug 30709) | expand |
Isn't the point of the rebuild that nscd's getaddrinfo does not try to contact nscd?
* Andreas Schwab: > Isn't the point of the rebuild that nscd's getaddrinfo does not try to > contact nscd? I think that's handled differently. First, nscd/aicache.c is not actually layered on top of getaddrinfo. Second, get_nscd_addresses in sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c checks __nss_not_use_nscd_hosts, which is set to -1 by __nss_disable_nscd, which is invoked by nscd upon startup. Thanks, Florian

The layering wouldn't work anyway because of the ai_flags processing. I was wondering whether the __check_pf stuff was supposed to be overriding something, but I don't see this either (not even in the history). Thanks, Florian

Apparently there was a getaddrinfo stub in nscd/nscd.c to make sure that nscd never called getaddrinfo, potentially resulting in nscd talking to itself: """ /* This is an ugly hack which prevents getaddrinfo from being dragged into nscd. There currently is no special getaddrinfo version for use in nscd. In case it should be necessary such a version must be created and this dummy version should be removed. */ extern void getaddrinfo (void) __attribute ((visibility ("hidden"))); void getaddrinfo (void) { abort (); } """ which later got replaced by nscd/gai.c: commit 3078cba2f7272dab753c45b733af2e693e86d83c Author: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Date: Mon Oct 4 16:35:54 2004 +0000 Update. * nscd/connections.c (start_threads): Use sysconf in case _POSIX_CLOCK_SELECTION or _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK is not greater zero. * nscd/nscd.c: Remove getaddrinfo stub definition. commit 91a3b2ad2e819a7fa14b8f9773856e4303a8c99a Author: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Date: Mon Oct 4 09:36:51 2004 +0000 Update. * nscd/Makefile (nscd-modules): Add gai. * nscd/gai.c: New file. but there's no indication as to why, because it doesn't look like getaddrinfo was actually needed at that time either. In all I think this looks correct. If we want nscd to be safe from the possibility that it ends up talking to itself accidentally at some point, we could add back the aborting stub.
