This adds __attribute__((format(printf,X,Y))) to several functions. It also adds checking only for the non-literal case to some functions such as unreal_log/unreal_do_log. This so we can more easily detect format string issues. Especially now with the recoding of the logger and with possible future mistakes in this area in UnrealIRCd 6 itself or in third party modules. The check is currently disabled in these files, which are TODO items: * src/send.c: still much work to do * src/socket.c: due to report_error and report_baderror(). I want to get rid of these functions and integrate them in the new logger anyway. * src/serv.c: only disable for hunt_server()
About UnrealIRCd
UnrealIRCd is an Open Source IRC Server, serving thousands of networks since 1999. It runs on Linux, OS X and Windows and is currently the most widely deployed IRCd with a market share of 42%. UnrealIRCd is a highly advanced IRCd with a strong focus on modularity, an advanced and highly configurable configuration file. Key features include SSL/TLS, cloaking, its advanced anti-flood and anti-spam systems, swear filtering and module support. We are also particularly proud on our extensive online documentation.
How to get started
Please consult our excellent online documentation at https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/ when setting up the IRCd!
Step 1: Installation
Windows
Simply download the UnrealIRCd Windows version from www.unrealircd.org
Alternatively you can compile UnrealIRCd for Windows yourself. However this is not straightforward and thus not recommended.
*BSD/Linux/macOS
Do the following steps under a separate account for running UnrealIRCd, do NOT compile or run as root.
Step 1: Compile the IRCd
- Run
./Config - Run
make - Run
make install - Now change to the directory where you installed UnrealIRCd, e.g.
cd /home/xxxx/unrealircd
Step 2: Configuration
Configuration files are stored in the conf/ folder by default (eg: /home/xxxx/unrealircd/conf)
Create a configuration file
If you are new, then you need to create your own configuration file: Copy conf/examples/example.conf to conf/ and call it unrealircd.conf. Then open it in an editor and carefully modify it using the documentation and FAQ as a guide (see below).
Step 3: Booting
Linux/*BSD/macOS
Run ./unrealircd start in the directory where you installed UnrealIRCd.
Windows
Start -> All Programs -> UnrealIRCd -> UnrealIRCd
