As usual, this is mostly for configuration templates that you use for
multiple servers, that sort of things, eg.
@if !environment("ADMIN")
@error "Environment variable ADMIN is not set"
@endif
This also adds a change in conf.c so @define, @error and
@warning are skipped in @if blocks that evaluate to false
(that's obviously what everyone wants :D). So that fixes a
previous bug with @define in @if.
to check environment variables.
This also means functions can now return values, so some changes
under the hood. This also moves the <=, >=, <, > ops code.
loadmodule + set config items
This checks the file on-disk, which is slightly different than
@if module-loaded("third/coolmod") which checks if it is loaded.
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.
NOTE: Linked servers are considered trusted in UnrealIRCd.
This is not exploitable beyond a crash, due to -fstack-protector-all,
a hardening compiler flag we added many years ago. Even without
that flag it would be rather difficult, and i didn't manage to,
but this should never happen anyway since this flag is only
missing in gcc/clang versions that are more than 15 years old.
This issue was introduced by the move to CMD_BIGLINES in
6c5de62c18 in 6.2.2 release.
Previously, due to HARDEN_LDFLAGS missing in MODULEFLAGS we were
only partial RELRO instead of full RELRO. This is a defense-in-
depth measure but is good to have and the ommission was unintended.
thus removing commands that are only supposed to be used by IRC clients.
We don't intend to document things like CAP, PONG, etc here.
Remove ISON, PONG, WATCH. Also remove DALINFO which no longer exists.
Re-index the USERCMDS and OPERCMDS table. This removes no longer existing
commands and may also have added some that were not in the index.
Moved STATS from USERCMDS to OPERCMDS since by default it is Oper-only
(and very likely is so effectively in practice).
Maybe PRIVMSG is a bit inconsistent in all this, since users don't type
that but usually it is like MSG. But yeah.. okay.. i can live with that.
As an aside, I don't like services commands being documented in HELPOP,
but that is another matter. These should be 100% documented in the wiki
first before they are scratched in the HELPOP. Right now some are still
missing.
certificate or key. It added the cert/key to the list of certs, like a
"dual cert" approach.
This was caused by commit 877d151da4,
which indeed adds support for "dual cert" (or more).
I have now deferred setting the default to happen only if no
set::tls::certificate is specified, as you would expect.
We (already) used a similar delayed-initialization / deferred setting
approach in the ::tls-options inheritance code (for blocks like
listen, sni, link, etc.)
Just as a slightly related reminder, we do normally suggest keeping the
conf/tls/server.cert.pem and conf/tls/server.key.pem for server linking
and then use a cert from a trusted CA in the listen block for 6697 etc.

for more information (and the 'why').
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.
