This also includes buffer modifications to have a larger read buffer
and IRCv3 implementations (partial or not) for:
labeled-response, msgid, server-time, batch and account-tag.
As said, it is the initial and partial implementation.
There are still various FIXME's and TODO's, the API of various
functions may still change (actually that is true for the next
months, even) and some stuff is currently in the core that will
be moved to modules.
have already fully authenticated the server (but when it technically is
not fully linked as a server yet, eg post-EAUTH but pre-SERVER).
Also, send ERRORs to junk snomask from untrusted sources. After all,
the junk snomask is precisely there to enable briefly to debug issues.
In case of link errors we always advice to check BOTH sides of the link
as an IRCOp, and this advice still stands. This may just help a little
for people who do not follow our advice.
triggered by doing quick server connects (crossing requests), something
that the PROTOCTL SERVERS= code is supposed to prevent (it should be
safe to connect to X servers at the same time, even every second).
Previously various information was only available for directly attached
servers, since it is communicated via PROTOCTL.
Now, we will also communicate information about leafs behind us.
IRCOps can use the /SINFO command to see these server features.
Services codes don't need to do anything, or at least are not expected
to do anything. They can still receive the information and do something
with it, of course...
Read the following technical documentation for full information,
as it will outline very specific rules for using the command S2S:
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Server_protocol:SINFO_command
to control synchronization of the +beI setter across server links
(that is, the feature just introduced one commit ago):
set {
topic-setter [nick|nick-user-host]; /* nick = default */
ban-setter [nick|nick-user-host]; /* nick = default */
ban-setter-sync [yes|no]; /* yes = default */
};
This also means that --with-topicisnuhost / TOPIC_NICK_IS_NUHOST
is now removed, since this now goes via set::topic-setter.
Also, moved the "first" PROTOCTL from include/common.h to send_proto()
in src/s_serv.c so the bunch of PROTOCTL lines is all in one place
(and so I could conditionally send SJSBY).
Ok, it's not entirely all in one place, PROTOCTL EAUTH is still sent
at another place (early, duh), but still..
any other bans that will cause the user to be disconnected.
For technical details see the banned_client() function.
It's likely I made some mistakes somewhere => testing required!!
module but at least the code can be updated on the fly (or replaced
with some other secondary alternative module in the future).
src/charsys.c -> src/modules/charsys.c
This also means everyone needs to load the modules/charsys module.
code clutter and was broken anyway (especially CHROOTDIR)...
For a CHROOTDIR replacement we suggest using AppArmor, SELinux, FreeBSD jails, ..
For a IRC_USER/IRC_GROUP replacement you can use start-stop-daemon or similar.
Re-implemented PROTOCTL SERVERS= which nenolod ripped out (#4355).
Add 2nd argument to PROTOCTL EAUTH=servername,unrealprotocol
Change UnrealProtocol from 2350 to 2351
Added swhois_add / swhois_delete functions which also take care of broadcasting
New remove_oper_privileges() function, will move the rest to use this (svsnoop svsmode etc)
Not finished yet...
