Remove $FreeBSD$: one-line .h pattern

2023-08-16T17:54:23+00:00

Remove /^\s*\*+\s*\$FreeBSD\$.*$\n/

include: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

2017-11-20T19:45:28+00:00

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

Replace our version of the pwcache(3) API with NetBSD's implementation.

2012-10-19T12:44:22+00:00

This adds two features:
 * uid_from_user() and gid_from_group() as the reverse of user_from_uid()
   and groups_from_gid().
 * pwcache_userdb() and pwcache_groupdb() which allow alternative lookup
   functions to be used.  For example lookups from passwd and group
   databases in a non-standard location.

Remove the Berkeley clause 3's.

= Implement thread-safe versions of the getpwent(3) and getgrent(3)

  family of functions using the new nsdispatch(3) core.  Remove
  arbitrary size limits when using the thread-safe versions.

= Re-implement the traditional getpwent(3)/getgrent(3) functions on
  top of the thread-safe versions.

= Update the on-disk format of the hashed version of the passwd(5)
  databases to allow for versioned entries.  The legacy version is
  `3'.  (Don't ask.)

= Add support for version `4' entries in the passwd(5) database.
  Entries in this format are identical to version 3 entries except
  that all integers are stored as 32-bit integers in network byte
  order (big endian).

= pwd_mkdb is updated to generate both version 3 and version 4
  entries.

o  will continue to live so it can define MD clock

o Change all headers to make use of this.  This mainly involves
  changing:

    typedef	_BSD_FOO_T_	foo_t;
    #undef _BSD_FOO_T_

o Remove include of , it adds too much pollution;

2002-06-09T19:39:18+00:00

  instead, add typedefs of only gid_t, time_t, and uid_t.
o Remove an unneeded conditional that hid macros that are in the
  implementation namespace and therefore don't need to be hidden when
  _POSIX_SOURCE is defined.
o Adjust some conditionals for compatibility with X/Open and POSIX.
o Note missing functions getpwnam_r() and getpwuid_r().
