Change the line buffer in the Read_TextFile() function from 127 to
COMMAND_LEN (=512) bytes. Lines can't even get that long, because they
have to be prefixed before being sent to the client, so this is a sane
maximum.
This allows for even more "fancy" and "wider" MOTDs :-)
Closes#271.
Don't use the "standard" IRC SSL port 6697, as this easily collides with
real (ng)IRCd instances running on the same machine.
And by reusing port 6790, which is already used by the "test server #2",
we don't need any other port than the test suite already uses.
Not sure about the portability of strpbrk() in really ancient OS, and
this was the only place where it became used recently in ngIRCd ...
So let's play it safe! ;-)
There is no point in waiting up to one second for the network receiving
new data when there is still a read buffer holding at least one command;
we shouldn't waste time but handle it immediately!
If there are more bytes in the read buffer already than a single valid
IRC command can get long (513 bytes, COMMAND_LEN), wait for this/those
command(s) to be handled first and don't try to read even more data from
the network (which most probably would overflow the read buffer of this
connection soon).
This reverts commit c6e3c13f27.
This sounded like the right approach at first, but I'm not that sure
that it really makes sense to have different sizes of read buffers: the
per-connection read buffer only needs to keep data that is needed to
parse one full command, be it plain text, encrypted and/or compressed.
Then ngIRCd should handle this one command, move leftover data to the
beginning of the buffer and read the next chunk from the network that is
missing to get the next complete command (512 bytes at max).
So I revert this for now and try to fix the logic in Read_Request(),
which is broken nevertheless, as it results in servers becoming
disconnected during "server burst" when "big" lists are transferred.
The name of the Config_Error() function is misleading: it is not only
used to show configuraton errors, but all messages shown during normal
operation as well as for "config testing": it takes care of the correct
formatting of the messages (syslog, forground logging, config testing).
This fixes commit bb1d014aba.
This is required because the PING can be received quite a bit earlier
than it is actually handled, for example during "server burst" or other
heavy operations:
So the times won't match and PING-PONG logic would become garbled,
because we test for "last ping > last data" to determine if a PING
already was sent or not.
Remove legacy configuration options and related functions that have
been marked for removal for some time:
- PredefChannelsOnly (v22)
- NoticeAuth (v24)
- NoXXX (v19)
- Old '[GLOBAL]' section handling (v19)
This applies the same logic we have for write buffers to distinguish
between server and client connections and sets the maximum buffer size
accordingly. As a result peering with servers with many GLINE/KLINEs
does not kill the connecting server connection anymore.
Depending on the stack size, too many clients on the same channel
quitting at the same time would trigger a crash due to too many
recursive calls to Conn_Close().
This requires keeping track of currently active certificates, so those
are stored separately, along with a reference counter, and discarded
when they are no longer in use.
Fix the handling of legacy "Key" and "MaxUsers" [Channel] settings:
- Activate them before evaluating the "Modes" parameter, to allow the
latter to override those legacy options.
- Enforce setting the respective +k/+l mode(s) to support the legacy
"Mode = kl" notation, which was valid but is an invalid MODE string:
key and limit are missing! So set them manually when "k" or "l" are
detected in the first MODE parameter.
- Sort modes +kl alphabetically, adjust test suite accordingly.
Fix the following Clang "LeakSanitizer" error (which isn't quite
relevant in this test program, but anyway):
ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks

Return with exit code 0 ("no error") when "--help" or "--version" was
used (this resulted in exit code 1, "error" before).
And exit with code 2 ("command line error") for all invalid command
line options, and show the error message on stderr (message was printed
to stdout before, and exit code was 1, "generic error").
This new behaviour is more in line with the GNU "coding standards",
see <https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/_002d_002dhelp.html>.
Previously, each server would cloak every user's hostmask. The problem
is that if a network has more than one server, then a user's hostmask
would get cloaked twice. This patch ensures that a server only cloaks
the hostmask if it has not yet been cloaked (the period indicates it's
still an IP address).
Closes#228.
This includes:
- "Real name" of a client (4th filed of the USER command).
- Server info text ("Info" configuration option).
- Admin info texts and email address ("AdminInfo1", "AdminInfo2" and
"AdminEmail" configuration options).
- Network name ("Network" configuration option).
The limit was 64 bytes before ...
Closes#258.
Don't exit during runtime (REHASH command, HUP signal), because the
server name can't be changed in this case anyway and the new invalid
name will be ignored.
- Show name of configuration file at the beginning of start up.
- Add a message when ngIRCd is ready, including its host name.
- Show name of configuration file on REHASH (SIGHUP), too.
- Change level of "done message" to NOTICE, like "starting" & "ready".
- Initialize IO functions before channels, connections, clients, ...
This option configures the maximum penalty time increase in seconds, per
penalty event. Set to -1 for no limit (the default), 0 to disable
penalties altogether. ngIRCd doesn't use penalty increases higher than 2
seconds during normal operation, so values higher than 1 rarely make
sense.
Disabling (or reducing) penalties can greatly speed up "make check" runs
for example, see below, but are mostly a debugging feature and normally
not meant to be used on production systems!
Some example timings running "make check" from my macOS workstation:
- MaxPenaltyTime not set: 4:41,79s
- "MaxPenaltyTime = 1": 3:14,71s
- "MaxPenaltyTime = 0": 25,46s
Closes#249.
For example:
* src/ngircd/irc-login.c:102:21: Implicit conversion loses integer
precision: 'int' to 'char'
* src/ngircd/conn.c:1084:9: Implicit conversion turns floating-point

According to an IRCv3 extension, the 5th parameter can be used for extra
flags that are fine to ignore for now, but limiting WEBIRC params to 4
causes a syntax error.

This closes#247.
When ngIRCd failed to spawn a new resolver subprocess, the connection
structure was still marked as "SERVER_WAIT", and no new attempt to
connect to this server was made.
Thanks to Robert Obermeier for reporting this bug!
Closes#243.
This patch fixes a "use after free" bug which is hit while processing
ERROR commands while a new client is logging into the server, which
leads to only the CLIENT structure becoming freed, but not the
CONNECTION structure, too. And this leads to the daemon accessing the
already freed CLIENT structure later on ...
So now IRC_ERROR() uses the correct function Conn_Close() to correctly
free both structures.
The CONNECTION structure is cleaned up later on, and the freed CLIENT
structure can't be overwritten during normal operations, therefore this
bug normally can't crash (DoS) the service -- but you can easily hit it
when using the GCC option "-fsanitize=address", or run ngIRCd with
Valgrind.
Thanks a lot to Joseph Bisch <joseph.bisch@gmail.com> for discovering
and reporting this issue!
This prevents the channel from becoming flooded by unecessary TOPIC
update messages, that can happen when IRC services try to enforce a
certain topic but which is already set (at least on the local server),
for example. Therefore still forward it to all servers, but don't inform
local clients (still update setter and timestamp information, though!)
