Starting with GNU automake 1.12, the "de-ANSI-fication support" has been
removed, which ngIRCd used to enable building itself on very old systems.
Now the problem is, that using automake >= 1.12 isn't working because of
the now unsupported M4 macros. Therefore the solution that this patch
implements is to dynamically generate the automake input files with our
own ./autogen.sh script:
configure.ng => configure.in
Makefile.ng => Makefile.am
This is quite an ugly approach, but it works and enables us to:
1. use current automake >= 1.12 for development and "private builds",
2. still build distribution archives using automake 1.11.x that have
"de-ANSI-fication support" enabled in the generated Makefile's.
And if you are using Makefile's generated with a automake version newer
than 1.11.x (without "de-ANSI-fication support"), the ./configure script
warns you not to use this generated build system to generate distribution
archives.
Drawback of this patch: you MUST use our autogen.sh script, you can't call
the autoconf/automake commands directly any more; but autoreconf should
still work ...
Update GNU autoconf and automake infrastructure.
Tested on modern systems as well as Apple A/UX :-)
* autoconf-update:
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS: fix ansi2knr option, include path
Don't use AC_FUNC_MALLOC and AC_FUNC_REALLOC
Make our own targets "silent", if enabled
configure.in: use AC_CHECK_{FUNCS|HEADERS}_ONCE
Updated config.{guess|sub} to version 2012-08-14
Make autogen.sh more verbose when VERBOSE=1 is set
configure.in: use AC_SEARCH_LIBS (not AC_CHECK_LIB)
configure.in: use AS_HELP_STRING macro
configure.in: use AC_CANONICAL_HOST (not AC_CANONICAL_TARGET)
configure.in: inttypes.h is an optional header file
Use HAVE_SETSID #define when testing for setsid()
Don't include <stdint.h>, it is included by "portab.h"
Don't check type.h availability, it is required
configure.in: Use AC_CONFIG_FILES macro
configure.in: Don't use AC_C_PROTOTYPES
configure.in: Update checks for required and optional features
configure.in: require autoconf 2.67 and automake 1.11
configure.in: sort some lists (templates, output, ...)
This fixes the following warning message when building without SSL support:
conn.c: In function "New_Connection":
conn.c:1365: warning: unused parameter "IsSSL"
Introduced by commit 01b62202.
ngIRCd is a long-running process and changes its working directory to "/" to
not block mounted filesystems and the like when running as daemon ("not in the
foreground"); therefore the path to the configuration file must be relative to
"/" (or the chroot() directory), which basically is "not relative", to ensure
that "kill -HUP" and the "REHASH" command work as expected later on.
This fixes parts of bug #127.
It makes no sense to limit the list size when doing WHO for a channel
and not to return all the users in that channel, so I removed the check.
But if there are more than MAX_RPL_WHO(25) replies, the client requesting
the list will be "penalized" one second more (then 2 in total).
This fixes bug #125.
Some systems, notably FreeBSD 4.x, do have the kqueue() function but
lack the definition of EV_SET() in their header files -- but don't
worry, we can #define it on our own ;-)
Definition taken from /usr/include/sys/event.h of FreeBSD 8.1.
Patch tested on FreeBSD 4.1 by Götz Hoffart. Thanks!
Conn_StartLogin() is called after the connection has been established and
fully innitialized, including the SSL handshake, for example.
Up to this patch, the "NoticeAuth" option broke the SSL handshake ...
This numeric is sent to the client each time it changes its displayed
hostname using "MODE +/-x", and if "CloakHost" is set right after the
MOTD has been sent.
Not only cloak the hostname in Client_MaskCloaked(), but also in
Client_HostnameCloaked() -- so move the actual cloaking to this function
and call it in Client_MaskCloaked() to get the (cloaked) hostname.
This fixes USERHOST not displaying the correctly cloaked hostname,
for example.
This patch series allows ngIRCd to support the user mode "B" ("Bot flasg"):
it is settable and unsettable by every (non-restricted) client.
According to DNS777, this is how Unreal and InspIRCd do behave, so do we :-)

* umode-B:
Add new user mode "B" to doc/Modes.txt
Implement an Unreal-like user mode "B" ("Bot mode")

Add new channel mode "M" to doc/Modes.txt
Remove Can_Send_To_Channel_Identified()
Implement channel mode "M"
Two fixes here: IRC_Send_NAMES was checking the capability of the
wrong client when responding, and it didn't return any prefix for
clients that had either +v or +o but not both.

* better-chan-errors:
Remove unused ERR_CANNOTSENDTOCHAN2_MSG message
Add some more information to channel error numerics
This patch series converts the statically allocated password buffer in the
CLIENT structure into a dynamically (and only when needed) allocated buffer
which is referenced by the CONNECTION structure.
This a) saves memory for clients not using passwords at all and b) allows
for "arbitrarily" long passwords.
By Brett Smith (5) and Alexander Barton (2).
* 'move-connection-password' of git://arthur.barton.de/ngircd-alex:
Login_User(): use "conn" insted of calling Client_Conn(Client)
Free already saved password when storing a new one
Indentation and style fixes.
Connection password is not constant.
Implementation clean-ups.
Dynamically allocate memory for connection password.
Move client password from the Client to the Connection struct.
The "ServiceMask" variable in "Server" blocks now can handle more than
one mask using the new MatchCaseInsensitiveList() function.
This makes marking "service clients" much more specific, which is a
good thing per se, but which is the prerequisite for reasonably
blocking these nick names, too (see commit a6dd2e3 for details).
This patch introduces the new function Conf_NickIsBlocked() which checks
if a given nick name matches with the "service mask" of a configured server.
And Client_CheckNick() uses this information to deny such names for regular
IRC users.
So nick names intended for IRC services are more protected and can't be used
by regular users even when the "services pseudo-server" isn't connected to
the network.
But please note:
Up to now, there can be only one "ServiceMask" pattern per server, which
most probably blocks much more nick names than really required ...
So "ServiceMask" should allow more than one pattern which can be more
specific, and most probably it should be possible to block nick names in
the global server configuration as well.
Nick names introduced by other servers/services are never restricted.
This is a relatively naive implementation, basically doing the bare minimum
necessary to make the switchover go. Subsequent commits can focus on
improving the implementation.
