geoip_classic and geoip_mmdb in modules.default.conf with Conditional
Config, a dynamic loadmodule line, and auto-updates.
Somewhere in a later version, probably 6.2.5, we will default to mmdb
for all cases.
New RPC methods:
- security_group.list: List all security groups
- security_group.get: Get details of a specific security group
- connthrottle.status: Get full connection throttle status, counters, and config
- connthrottle.set: Enable/disable connection throttling
- connthrottle.reset: Reset connection throttling counts
This also adds json_expand_mask_list(), json_expand_name_list(), and
json_expand_nvplist() to src/json.c for reuse by RPC modules.
A link to https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/JSON-RPC and such is nice.
And also explain that not all JSON-RPC modules will be in rpc/*.
Sometimes it makes more sense to just put everything in the same
module, such as connthrottle RPC stuff in the connthrottle module.
I started work on this back then but didn't finalize it. Now I
have to figure out what was left to be done :D. Other than the
obvious case of seeing some debugging code that prints out for
every converted character. Not yet visible / usable by end-users!
Also fix documentation for ~10 hooks to mention the hook name.
Obviously, the maxperip module is loaded by default (in modules.default.conf)
but it is nice to have the 400+ lines contained in a separate module
rather than being in the nick module that does NICK/UID handling.
Will look at moving more later..
Several notes:
* This only checks on-JOIN (not on nick change, message, etc)
for performance reasons
* If the #channel in ~inherit:#channel also contains ~inherit
entries then those are not processed (no recursion and no looping)
* Only a limited number of ~inherit entries is permitted.
This will be moved to set:: items in a future commit so you
can set different amounts for +b/+e/+I ~inherit.
* This is work in progress, UnrealIRCd or the entire world could explode
* Documentation will follow later
Developers:
* Sadly, clean_ban_mask() needed to be changed to have two more
parameters, 'ban_type' and 'channel' were added at different positions.
This because the module needs the ban type (EXBTYPE_BAN, EXBTYPE_EXCEPT,
EXBTYPE_INVEX) and channel because it rejects based on number of
existing ~inherit entries in the channel... and while is_ok() is called
for local clients and has all this information, for services clients
is_ok() is not called so the only way to reject the +beI is through
xxx_conv_param() which comes from clean_ban_mask().
This also automatically adds it as a security group and mask item:
ban user {
mask { asn 64496; }
reason "Testing ASN ban";
}
And yeah, it is a normal extban too (in +b and +I). Users usually
don't know the AS Number of other users, though, unless you change
the default configuration (at the cost of privacy).
Updated release notes a bit... more will follow.
