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..
It now passes 'clictx' which at the moment only has clictx->cmd which
points to the command handler. So only useful in very few cases where
you have like a generic command handler and thus have no idea for which
command you are being called. In the future, with this new ClientContext
struct, we can simply add new fields to the struct without breaking
things in the core and in (third party) modules.
If you use the magic functions in your modules CMD_FUNC(cmd_mycmd),
OVERRIDE_FUNC(myoverride), CALL_NEXT_COMMAND_OVERRIDE() and such then
you shouldn't have any compile errors as these will use the correct
prototypes and variable names automatically. In a few cases you can't
use these, in which case you will need to update your modules.
GCC 15 is not released yet and is scheduled for April/May 2025.
We now have a ./configure check. If a func() declaration is interpreted
as meaning 0 arguments, so C23 style, then we now add -std=gnu17 to
CFLAGS. If not, then we don't set an explicit C standard version.

These are optional after all. Not everyone links multiple servers
and not everyone uses Services. Fits with the rest that is //'ed
out now. Indirectly suggested by jwheare.
In addition to regular logging, also add a JSON log file.
This includes lots of information about every event so is great
for auditing purposes and is machine readable. It is, however
less readable for humans.
This so there is an offline version of the documentation from
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/.
I'm not 100% satisfied with the layout but it is workable.
The ZIM file can be opened with tools liki Kiwix.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIM_(file_format)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiwix
This does add 1.5 megabyte to the repository (and .tar.gz) but I
doubt anyone cares about that nowadays. The upside is that each
UnrealIRCd release will have the documentation of that time point
included, which can be used for historical purposes but also if
you don't have an internet connection or when for some other
reason the unrealircd wiki is unreachable.
The idea is that the .zim file is rebuild before each release,
i use mwoffliner (dev version) for that.
People should preferrably go through the example conf line by line, but
if they are in a hurry or just want to get started quickly initially they
could CTRL+F on that.

The new key is signed by the old key and uploaded to keyserver.ubuntu.com.
The old key will still be used for signing releases for now. Somewhere around
the summer of 2025 i will switch to the new key.
Posted in https://forums.unrealircd.org/viewtopic.php?t=9397 for transparency
and set our default ciphers and ciphersuites. Note that by default in
UnrealIRCd 6 the built-in (non-cURL) implementation is used for remote
includes, which already uses the same defaults since 6.0.0. Also note
that most distros, like Ubuntu and Debian, already disabled TLSv1.2
in the default openssl conf and thus it was already disabled in cURL.
In config.h we had a:
#if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER >= 0x10100000L
#define UNREALIRCD_DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVES "X25519:secp521r1:secp384r1:prime256v1"
#else
#define UNREALIRCD_DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVES "secp521r1:secp384r1:prime256v1"
#endif
...which is fine in theory, but openssl headers are not included at that point,
so OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER was not defined.
From now on, we have:
#define UNREALIRCD_DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVES_PRIMARY "X25519:secp521r1:secp384r1:prime256v1"
#define UNREALIRCD_DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVES_SECONDARY "secp521r1:secp384r1:prime256v1"
...and we try them in that order. If both fail, we exit with an error (like before).
This because X25519 is not available in OpenSSL before 1.1.0 (so really old)
and may also not be available when running in FIPS mode.
... and make set::max-inherit-extended-bans::ban-exception default to 0
because that functionality is not implemented
The +e's are already checked when using +b ~inherit though..
* [Security group blocks](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Security-group_block)
are now hidden in lists by default. If you want the security group to be shown
in things like `MODE #channel +b ~security-group:x` (which shows a list)
then you need to use `public yes;`. The default security groups
like known-users, webirc-users, etc. are public by default.
* Convert to use module-based config handling
* Split part of VHOST command into do_vhost() for later
* Use AppendListItem instead of AddListItem so they are in config-order.
This is not really important atm but will matter later if we go auto.
* No other code changes at this point
