The new e_private field can be used for any backend purpose. In LDBM,
it's used to point th the private entry info struct. The LDBM entry
info struct is only visible to the LDBM cache.
WARNING: This change has not be ported to other backends! Breakage is likely.
Separates per backend type from per backend database initialization
and startup. Also supports per type / per backend shutdown.
New frontend startup/shutdown routines are also provided:
slap_init() slap_startup() slap_shutdown() slap_destroy()
New frontend->backend startup/shutdown is managed by:
backend_init() backend_startup() backend_shutdown backend_destroy
backend_init() now calls bi_init() to initial all function pointers
for the backend (excepting bi_init() which is now the only hardcoded
entry point). New entry points are detailed in slap.h struct
backend_info. backend_info is a per database type structure.
Besides the new startup/shutdown entry points, the new interface
also supports per backend type configuration options. One could have:
backend bdb2 (new Berkeley DB 2 backend)
bdb2_home /directory
database bdb2
...
*** This code is fairly experimental ***
*** Much cleanup and testing is still needed ***
see slap.h for details on struct backend_db and backend_info.
instead of array with overlayed struct fields. (which is inherently
non-portable).
Change maxid check in insert to be greater than or equal instead
of equal.
Use SAFEMEMCPY.
SLAPD_NEXTID_CHUNK. Code protects NEXTID file to ensure
its equal to or greater than nextid. Updated on close
to actual nextid. next_id_save() could be called periodically
if desired. Default chunk size is 32. Define to 1 to disable
chunking.
struct friendly (Friendly) changed to ldap_friendly (LDAPFriendly)
ldap_friendly friend prefix changed to 'lf_' from 'f_'
removed mod_next field from LDAPMod (struct ldapmod)
modified slapd to use new LDAPModList (struct ldapmodlist) struct.
Added LDAPv3 result codes to ldap.h
Most function and variable definitions are now preceded by its extern
definition, for error checking. Retyped a number of functions, usually
to return void. Fixed a number of printf format errors.
API changes (in ldap/include):
Added avl_dup_ok, avl_prefixapply, removed ber_fatten (probably typo
for ber_flatten), retyped ldap_sort_strcasecmp, grew lutil.h.
A number of `extern' declarations are left (some added by protoize), to
be cleaned away later. Mostly strdup(), strcasecmp(), mktemp(), optind,
optarg, errno.
