Three fixes for ipc_us.c
2012-09-06 Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy(a)exablox.com>
ipc_us: slightly more robust cmsg handling
Cope with multiple cmsg structures in the received msg.
ipc_us: on Linux, set SO_PASSCRED on the sending socket too
Linux doesn't pass credential information by default, only when it has
been specifically requested with SO_PASSCRED. This means there's a
race between when the ipc server side has set up and is listening on the
socket, and when the client may connect; if the client connects and sends
its first message before the server has set SO_PASSCRED on the socket,
then there will be no ucred information associated with the message.
The fix is to set SO_PASSCRED on the client socket as well, so that
the message will always have a ucred associated with it when the server
reads it.
Without this change, around 1% of cpg_model_initialize() calls fail
with CS_ERR_ACCESS.
(This Linux behaviour was introduced just on a year ago in
16e5726269611b71c930054ffe9b858c1cea88eb "af_unix: dont send
SCM_CREDENTIALS by default".)
ipc_us: clear request unused fields
Clear unused request fields and padding so that valgrind doesn't complain
about undefined data being sent over the socket.

TEST: Include writing and reading the blackbox in the log_long_msg test
2012-09-05 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
LOG: fix qb_vsnprintf_deserialize()
the strlcat was not call correctly, it needs the
original string to find the end and return the
correct length.

Merge pull request #41 from jsgf/master
Fix some 64-bit big-endian issues
2012-09-01 Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy(a)goop.org>
blackbox: fix 64-bit big-endian issues
Two issues:
1. when writing out the function name length, don't just write the 4 MSB
of the size
2. when reading the time, don't just use the 4 MSB of the time as the
timestamp; the log contains a full time_t, so we may as well use it.

Remove IPC_NEEDS_RESPONSE_ACK and turn off shm ipc on solaris
Define unix path max for openbsd
Only turn on ipc_needs_response_ack=yes for solaris
Hopefully I can kill this option.
Some improvements to kqueue usage.
2012-08-30 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
kqueue: drop log message to trace.
2012-08-29 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
Fix splint warning
openbsd requires netinet/in.h before arpa/inet.h
Avoid strcpy() use strlcpy() instead.
Fix kqueue complile warnings
openbsd doesn't have EBADMSG
openbsd has a different UNIX_PATH_MAX
103 other bsd's are 108
LOG: change qb_vsprintf_serialize() into qb_vsnprintf_serialize()
This is to prevent overwriting the ringbuffer.
Also remove stpcpy() as it is not used anymore.
TEST: increase timeout to 6 secs as the recv timeout is 5 secs
TEST: get the logic right - grrr.
Turn off attribute_section on netbsd
Some missing pshared semaphore checks
Cleanup the checks for pshared semaphores
Add a config check for pthread_mutexattr_setpshared
Not available on netbsd
2012-08-28 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
Remove uses of timersub and use qb_util_stopwatch
RB: change the #error to ENOTSUP if no usable shared process sem
This is mainly on mac.
LOOP-KQUEUE: fix reference before assignment.
2012-08-27 Fabio M. Di Nitto <fdinitto(a)redhat.com>
build: fix libqb.pc creation and make maintainer-clean
LIB_RT is unnecessary around. AC_CHECK_LIBS will do the right thing
similar for the other libs that are all exported via LIBS
2012-08-27 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
LOG: Make sure the semaphores are initialized.
2012-08-24 Fabio M. Di Nitto <fdinitto(a)redhat.com>
build: remove bashism in cc support check
this is required for all systems that don't use bash for /bin/sh
2012-08-24 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
Catch disconnected sockets on Solaris
It seems like poll() was not producing a POLLHUP
so we rely on qb_ipc_us_recv() returning -ENOTCONN.
Merge pull request #40 from jsgf/master
Merge Jeremy's clang bugfixes.
2012-08-24 Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy(a)exablox.com>
Don't free rb->shared_hdr in qb_rb_create_from_file()
Since qb_rb_close() frees it by munmapping it.
Check error return of qb_ipcs_uc_recv_and_auth()
If it fails, then &ugp isn't initialized.
2012-08-23 Andrew Beekhof <andrew(a)beekhof.net>
Fix removal of automatically installed doc files when building rpms
2012-08-22 Angus Salkeld <asalkeld(a)redhat.com>
Add the mailing list to the travis email notifications.
Work around debian not setting the arch path in splint.
So just adding both i386 and x86_64 to the path.
Ref: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gpsd-dev/2012-05/msg00221.html
Remove color-tests and parallel-tests automake options.
This is just too painful for buildsystems like koji and travis.
You can't get access to the detailed output (error logs) that
otherwise be printed to screen.
I can't find a way to disable them on the command line (that
would be the best solution).
Add travis continuous integration config

tests/rbwriter: don't ignore write failure
Here's another fix.
In adjusting the printf, I added a cast and switched to %5ld.
I would have preferred to use %5jd as the printf format (i.e., then no
cast is needed), but saw no other uses of the "j" directive, so perhaps
you do not yet depend on printf with such support.

ipcs: avoid use-after-free for size-0 || disconnect-request
Hi,
Glancing through coverity-reported issues,
I saw that this one required attention:
