Subject: [PATCH] Fix nss_compat
Date: Thu, 18 May 2006 14:39:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060518143932.GQ4651@sunsite.mff.cuni.cz> (raw)

Hi!

Before the SETENT_BATCH_READ addition, both NIS and NIS+ setpwent hook
always returned NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS, even when NIS or NIS+ wasn't reachable
(well, NIS+ could return NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN on memory allocation failure).
But, with SETENT_BATCH_READ, NIS/NIS+ setpwent hook returns
NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL if NIS/NIS+ isn't reachable.  When nss_compat setpwent
hook is called, we unfortunately check if /etc/passwd (etc.) is available
(if not, fail, which is IMHO correct), but if it is available, return
whatever the chained NSS module's setpwent hook returns.
But, nss_compat is supposed to work even when the chained NSS module isn't
working (e.g. with
passwd:     compat
passwd_compat: nis
in /etc/nsswitch.conf during bootup before NIS is started, it is expected
that only users in /etc/passwd will be used and not NIS only users).

The following patch fixes this, by returning NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS if the
file could be opened, but the chained set*ent hook returned
NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL.  In case of memory failure we would still return
NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN, but pretending no error happened would be weird.

The compat-initgroups.c change is unrelated, I noticed unused variables...

2006-05-18  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* nis/nss_compat/compat-pwd.c (internal_setpwent): If nss_set*ent
	returned NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL, still return NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS.
	* nis/nss_compat/compat-spwd.c (internal_setspent): Likewise.
	* nis/nss_compat/compat-grp.c (internal_setgrent): Likewise.

	* nis/nss_compat/compat-initgroups.c (nss_setgrent, nss_endgrent):
	Removed.
	(init_nss_interface): Remove initialization of these variables.
