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.

+.SH SYNOPSIS AND DESCRIPTION
+.B The svc and clnt functions described in this page are the old, TS-RPC
+.B interface to the XDR and RPC library, and exist
+.B for backward compatibility. The new interface is described in the pages
+.B referenced from
+.BR rpc (3).
+.PP
+These routines allow C programs to make procedure
+calls on other machines across the network.
+First, the client calls a procedure to send a
+data packet to the server.
+Upon receipt of the packet, the server calls a dispatch routine
+to perform the requested service, and then sends back a
+reply.
+Finally, the procedure call returns to the client.
+.\" XXX: NOTYET
+.\".LP
+.\"Routines that are used for Secure RPC (DES authentication) are described in
+.\".BR rpc_secure (3).
+.\"Secure RPC can be used only if DES encryption is available.
