back-ldbm was using a cache specific lock to protect non-reentrant
database routines from being reenterred. This is inadequate.
Also, reentrant database systems calls were serialized unnecessarily.
Non-reentrant database calls must have a big_mutex. Implemented
this within -lldbm itself. library requires ldbm_initialize()
be called before any other ldbm call to initialize the big_mutex
and to do any other db specific initialization (ie: such as
required for DB2).
The dbc_mutex, dbc_cv, & dbc_readers fileds of dbcache are history.
The "reentrant_database" (REENTRANT_DATABASE) define is also axed.
behind REENTRANT_DATABASE. rename reentrant_database -> REENTRANT_DATABASE.
When REENTRANT_DATABASE is defined, the simple lock is replaced
with a simple reader/writer lock. This functionality should be removed
from back-ldbm to libldbm.
SLAPD_NEXTID_CHUNK. Code protects NEXTID file to ensure
its equal to or greater than nextid. Updated on close
to actual nextid. next_id_save() could be called periodically
if desired. Default chunk size is 32. Define to 1 to disable
chunking.
introduction of pid/agrs parameters to the test-suite slapd.conf files;
creation of sub-directory test/var for storage of pid/args files during test;
update of the slapd and slapd.conf man pages.
(The change reduces dependency on ldapconfig.h, since SLAPD_PIDEXT
and SLAPD_ARGSEXT are deleted from the code.)
Update slap_op to maintain dn and ndn (derived from conn->c_dn).
Update ldbm_back_bind to return actual bound dn (including rootdn)
for use in slapd_conn. Other backends use client dn.
Modify other codes to use ndn (normalized uppercase dn) most everywhere.
Aliasing, Suffixing and modrdn could use more work.
Applied suffixing to compare and modrdn.
end of link. Basic order is:
$LDFLAGS internal-libs external-libs $LIBS $LTHREAD_LIBS
LTHREAD_LIBS is last as -lpthread (or equiv) must be last on many systems.
LIBS is next to last as some user might have put -lpthread (or equiv)
in $LIBS.
creation codes to provide this field. Update cache_entrydn_cmp
to strcasecmp() the e_ndn instead of e_dn. Note: strcasecmp()
is still used as e_ndn isn't in uppercase. Maybe it should
be. Did not update other codes to use e_ndn. Hence, there
are lots of dn_normalize() calls that could be eliminated.
(The case determination of e_ndn should be made first).
