* Simplify sytem call renaming. Instead of _foo() <-- _libc_foo <-- foo(),jasone2000-01-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | just use _foo() <-- foo(). In the case of a libpthread that doesn't do call conversion (such as linuxthreads and our upcoming libpthread), this is adequate. In the case of libc_r, we still need three names, which are now _thread_sys_foo() <-- _foo() <-- foo(). Convert all internal libc usage of: aio_suspend(), close(), fsync(), msync(), nanosleep(), open(), fcntl(), read(), and write() to _foo() instead of foo(). Remove all internal libc usage of: creat(), pause(), sleep(), system(), tcdrain(), wait(), and waitpid(). Make thread cancellation fully POSIX-compliant. Suggested by: deischen

* Improve DoS avoidance in RPC stream oriented transports. The TCP transportwpaul1998-05-181-17/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | uses readtcp() to gather data from the network; readtcp() uses select(), with a timeout of 35 seconds. The problem with this is that if you connect to a TCP server, send two bytes of data, then just pause, the server will remain blocked in readtcp() for up to 35 seconds, which is sort of a long time. If you keep doing this every 35 seconds, you can keep the server occupied indefinitely. To fix this, I modified readtcp() (and its cousin, readunix() in svc_unix.c) to monitor all service transport handles instead of just the current socket. This allows the server to keep handling new connections that arrive while readtcp() is running. This prevents one client from potentially monopolizing a server. Also, while I was here, I fixed a bug in the timeout calculations. Someone attempted to adjust the timeout so that if select() returned EINTR and the loop was restarted, the timeout would be reduced so that rather than waiting for another 35 seconds, you could never wait for more than 35 seconds total. Unfortunately, the calculation was wrong, and the timeout could expire much sooner than 35 seconds.
* Patch RPC library to avoid possible denial of service attacks as describedwpaul1998-05-151-1/+2
