Whenever getaddrinfo needed network interface information it used the
netlink interface to read the information every single time. The
problem is that this information can change at any time.
The patch implements monitoring of the network interfaces through
nscd. If no change is detected the previously read information can
be reused (which is the norm). This timestamp information is also
made available to other processes using the shared memory segment
between nscd and those processes.
nscd can clear caches when certain files change. The list of files
was hardcoded so far and worked for nss_files and nss_dns and those
modules which need no monitoring. nss_db, for instance, has its
own set of files to monitor. Now the NSS modules themselves can
request that certain files are monitored.
The getcwd syscall (so far?) can only handle path up to one page
in size. There is no limit about directory hierarchy depth, though,
and the POSIX getcwd is supposed to handle this. In that case fall
back to the generic getcwd.
Additionally, optimize the generic getcwd to use openat when possible
to change the asymptotic performance from O(N^2) to O(n).
The ntp_gettime implementation of NTP exports the tai field the kernel
now produces. This requires an ABI change since the ntptimeval structure
changed. Upstream kept the same name, there is nothing to do. This
patch changes the ntptimeval structure but keeps the old ntp_gettime
definition. A new ntp_gettimex function which is transparently invoked
through the old name is introduced. This has the advantage that even
object files can remain compatible. This wouldn't be the case if
symbol versioning would be used to overload the name ntp_gettime.
