Update.
1998-10-18 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com>
* resolv/nss_dns/dns-host.c: Add missing errnop parameter to the
NSS functions.
* resolv/nss_dns/dns-network.c: Likewise.
* grp/Makefile: Don't search for linuxhtreads in add-ons, use
have-thread-library to determine whether threads are available.
* pwd/Makefile: Remove wrong comment.
* inet/Makefile: Define CFLAGS-gethstbyad_r.c, CFLAGS-gethstbynm_r.c,
and CFLAGS-gethstbynm2_r.c to -DUSE_NSCD=1.
* locale/C-messages.c: Define default strings for YESTR and NOSTR.
* nss/Versions: Add __nss_hosts_lookup.
* nss/getXXbyYY.c: Remove unneeded assignment.
* nss/getXXbyYY_r.c: Include nscd/nscd_proto.h only if needed.
Almost complete rewrite of the NSCD to make it smaller, faster,
add more functionnality and make it easier to extend.
* nscd/Makfile (routines): Add nscd_gethst_r.
(nscd-modules): Add hstcache, gethstbyad_r, gethstbynm2_r, and cache.
* nscd/cache.c: New file.
* nscd/gethstbyad_r.c: New file.
* nscd/gethstbynm2_r.c: New file.
* nscd/hstcache.c: New file.
* nscd/nscd_gethst_r.c: New file.
* nscd/connections.c: Rewritten. Don't start new thread for every
new connection. Use a fixed set of threads which handle all
connections and also the cache cleanup.
* nscd/grpcache.c: Rewritten to use generic cache handling functions
in cache.c.
* nscd/nscd.c: Recognize new parameter nthreads. Adjust initialization
for rewrite. Remove handle_requests function.
* nscd/nscd.h (NSCD_VERSION): Bump to 2.
Define new data structure for the new unified cache and the host
database entries.
* nscd/nscd_conf.c: Rewrite parsing partly to allow adding of more
databases easily. Recognize check-files and threads definitions.
* nscd/nscd.conf: Add definition of enable-cache and check-files to
passwd and group definitions. Add new set of definitions for hosts.
* nscd/nscd_getgr_r.c: Rewrite for new protocol.
* nscd/nscd_getpw_r.c: Likewise.
* nscd/nscd_proto.h: Add prototype for host database functions.
* nscd/nscd_stat.c: Rewrite to simplify printing of information
for many databases.
* nscd/dbg_log.c: Remove unnecessary variable initializations.
Global variable debug_flag is renamed to dbg_level.
* nscd/dbg_log.h: Declare set_logfile.
