packet loss when talking to a NIS server.
- Set 1 second retry timeout to further realistically handle UDP
packet loss for yp_next packet bursts. If the packet hasn't come
back within 1 second its rather unlikely to come back at all. There
is still back-off mechanism in RPC so if there is another reason
than packet loss for the lack of response within 1 second, the NIS
server will not be totally bombarded with requests.
This reduces the risk of NIS failing with:
yp_next: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
considerably. This is mainly a problem if you have larger NIS maps
(like at FreeBSD.org) since enumerations of the lists will cause a UDP
packet bursts where a few packets being lost once in a while do

Security: Integer overflow; calloc was allocating 1 byte in
response to a request for a multiple of 2^32 (or 2^64)
bytes instead of returning NULL.
The symptom is that syslog() fails to log anything but the "ident"
string if LOG_PERROR is specified to openlog(3) and the extensible
printf is in action.
For unclear, likely quaint historical reasons, syslog uses fwopen()
on a stack buffer, rather than using the more straightforward
and faster snprintf().
Along the way, fflush(3) is called, and since the callback writer
function returns zero instead of the length "written", __SERR
naturally gets set on the filedescriptor.
The extensible printf, in difference from the normal printf refuses
to output anything to an __SERR marked filedescriptor, and thus
the actual syslog message is supressed.

The res_update(3) and the friends are not essential part of the

res_update.h separately in BIND9. Further, they are not called from
our tree. So, I hide them from our resolv.h, but leave them only
for binary backward compatibility (perhaps, no one calls them).
Since, struct __res_state_ext is not exposed in BIND9, I hide it
from our resolv.h. And, global variable _res_ext is removed. It
breaks binary backward compatibility. But, since it is not used from

For some denormalized long double values, a bug in __hldtoa() (called
from *printf()'s %A format) results in a base 16 digit being rounded
up from 0xf to 0x10.
When this digit is subsequently converted to string format, an index
of 10 reaches past the end of the uppper-case hex/char array, picking
up whatever the code segment happen to contain at that address.
This mostly seem to be some character from the upper half of the
byte range.
When using the %a format instead of %A, the first character past
the end of the lowercase hex/char table happens to be index 0 in
the uppercase hex/char table hextable and therefore the string
representation features a '0', which is supposedly correct.
This leads me to belive that the proper fix _may_ be as simple as
masking all but the lower four bits off after incrementing a hex-digit
in libc/gdtoa/_hdtoa.c:roundup(). I worry however that the upper
bit in 0x10 indicates a carry not carried.
Until das@ or bde@ finds time to visit this issue, extend the
hexdigit arrays with a 17th index containing '?' so that we get a
invalid but consistent and printable output in both %a and %A formats
whenever this bug strikes.
This unmasks the bug in the %a format therefore solving the real
issue may both become easier and more urgent.

and then call kern_foov(). For example, read() now just builds a uio and

3493, it was changed to a socklen_t. And, the n_net of a
struct netent used to be an unsigned long integer. In XNS5,
and subsequently in POSIX-2001, it was changed to an uint32_t.
To accomodate for this while preserving ABI compatibility with
the old interface, we need to prepend or append 32 bits of
padding, depending on the (LP64) architecture's endianness.

different from what has been offered in libc_r (the one spotted in the
original PR which is found in libthr has already been removed by David's
commit, which is rev. 1.44 of lib/libthr/thread/thr_private.h):
- Use POSIX standard prototype for ttyname_r, which is,
int ttyname_r(int, char *, size_t);
Instead of:
char *ttyname_r(int, char *, size_t);
This is to conform IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition [1].
- Since we need to use standard errno for return code, include
errno.h in ttyname.c
- Update ttyname(3) implementation according to reflect the API
change.
- Document new ttyname_r(3) behavior
- Since we already make use of a thread local storage for
ttyname(3), remove the BUGS section.
- Remove conflicting ttyname_r related declarations found in libc_r.
Hopefully this change should not have changed the API/ABI, as the ttyname_r
symbol was never introduced before the last unistd.h change which happens a
couple of days before.

I have intentionally omitted errnos that are only good for STREAMS,

EPROTO, which was apparently intended for STREAMS, but worth having
anyway because Linux (mis)uses it for other things.
to mistakes from day 1, it has always had semantics inconsistent with
SVR4 and its successors. In particular, given argument M:
- On Solaris and FreeBSD/{alpha,sparc64}, it clobbers the old flags
and *sets* the new flag word to M. (NetBSD, too?)
- On FreeBSD/{amd64,i386}, it *clears* the flags that are specified in M
and leaves the remaining flags unchanged (modulo a small bug on amd64.)
- On FreeBSD/ia64, it is not implemented.
There is no way to fix fpsetsticky() to DTRT for both old FreeBSD apps
and apps ported from other operating systems, so the best approach
seems to be to kill the function and fix any apps that break. I
couldn't find any ports that use it, and any such ports would already
be broken on FreeBSD/ia64 and Linux anyway.
By the way, the routine has always been undocumented in FreeBSD,
except for an MLINK to a manpage that doesn't describe it. This
manpage has stated since 5.3-RELEASE that the functions it describes
are deprecated, so that must mean that functions that it is *supposed*
to describe but doesn't are even *more* deprecated. ;-)
Note that fpresetsticky() has been retained on FreeBSD/i386. As far
as I can tell, no other operating systems or ports of FreeBSD
implement it, so there's nothing for it to be inconsistent with.
