r/w locks and thread pools. Hide internal structures (using
pthread'ish technics). Place common code in threads.c. Move
no-thread code to thr_stub.c. Move thread pool code to tpool.c.
Removed setconcurrency call from initializer, added 'concurrency'
directive to slapd. Tested code under pthreads, pth, and no-threads.
user password. Likely to be modified to use bind control
instead. Use of modify deprecated in favor mechanisms that
support passwords stored externally to the directory (such
as in a SASL service).
Modified slapd extended operation infrastructure to support
backend provided extended operations.
privs, additive/substractive rules, and rule continuation. Existing
rules that use 'defaultaccess none' should be 100% compatible. Rules
that rely other defaultaccess settings will require addition of
explicit clauses granting the access.
Needs additional testing and tuning of logs
Old code applied sync flags to store(), however supported DBMs
require such flags to be specified during open(). The new
code now applies flags in ldbm_cache_open (which calls ldbm_open).
ldbm_cache_close() now calls ldbm_sync(). This will force
a updating of on-disk contents after each LDAP operation.
The old code either failed to sync the on-disk contents until
close or synced on every store. Per LDBM operation syncing
*should* be safe enough... real data safety requires transactions.
Removed nosync option from BDB2 as it is not compatible with
txn support.
Also added code to disable DBM level locking as slapd is only
process acessing the databases (dbnolocking).
Includes support for update referral for each replicated backend.
Reworked replication test to use update referral.
Includes major rewrite of response encoding codes (result.c).
Includes reworked alias support and eliminates old suffix alias codes
(can be emulated using named alias).
Includes (untested) support for the Manage DSA IT control.
Works in LDAPv2 world. Still testing in LDAPv3 world.
Added default referral (test009) test.
