this means that *always* libnsl is only built as shared library for
backward compatibility and the NSS modules libnss_nis and libnss_nisplus
are not built at all, libnsl's headers aren't installed.
This compatibility is kept only for architectures and ABIs that have
been added in or before version 2.28.
Replacement implementations based on TIRPC, which additionally support
IPv6, are available from <https://github.com/thkukuk/>.
This change does not affect libnss_compat which does not depended
on libnsl since 2.27 and thus can be used without NIS.
libnsl code depends on Sun RPC, e.g. on --enable-obsolete-rpc (installed
libnsl headers use installed Sun RPC headers), which will be removed in
the following commit.
In commit 4b7c74179c the nsswitch.conf
file was harmonized with downstream distributions, but this change
included adding "initgroups: files". We should not add initgroups by
default, we can have it, but it should be commented out to allow it
to inherit the settings for group. The problem is principally that
downstream authconfig won't update initgroups and it will get out of
sync with the setting for group.
The current default nsswitch.conf file provided by glibc is not very
distribution friendly. The file contains some minimal directives that no
real distribution uses. This update aims to provide a rich set of
comments which are useful for all distributions, and a broader set of
service defines which should work for all distributions.
Tested defaults on x86_64 and they work. The nsswitch.conf file more
closely matches what we have in Fedora now, and I'll adjust Fedora to
use this version with minor changes to enable Fedora-specific service
providers.
v2
- Add missing databases to manual.
- Add link to manual from default nsswitch.conf.
- Sort nsswitch.conf according to most used database first.
v3
- Only mention implemented services in 'NSS Basics.'
- Mention 'automount' in 'Services in the NSS configuration.'
- Sort services in alphabetical order.
v4
- Project name is 'Samba'.
v5
- Fix typo in manual/nss.texi.
v6
- Fix another typo in manual/nss.texi. Ran spell checker this time.
Together with a previous patch which introduced the initgroups
entry in nsswitch.conf this patch allows more customization of
the lookups for initgroups/getgrouplist. Nothing changes if
the groups entry in nsswitch.conf is used. If the initgroups entry
is used instead the code now doesn't automatically continue looking
for more entries aftedr a successful lookup. Instead the normal
rules are followed which do specify that by default no more
service is consulted. This can be overwritten with
[SUCCESS=continue]
appropriately placed in the line.
