Oh, ok. This is pretty much a non-issue because threads in the pool stay live until slapd shuts down. The one exception is for a cn=config modify that decreases the size of the pool to below the number of currently active threads, in which case some number of threads will exit immediately. I don't see any potential for conflict here. >>>>> * Scheduling: If several threads call pool_pause(), (...) > > (need to check out how it should work...) > >>>>> - pool_context() breaks if several ldap_pvt_thread_t bit patterns can >>>>> represent the same thread ID: TID_HASH() would give different hashes >>>>> for the same thread, and pool_context() stops searching when it hits >>>>> a slot with ctx == NULL.

Casting to an int only works with simple types, the point of using the hash was to provide a solution that works for both simple and structured thread IDs. If you want to #ifdef the code so the two cases are handled differently, then just get rid of TID_HASH for the integral case. I'm still leary of the pthread TLS support, and making that change will require us to update all of the other thread package support, some of which I don't have access to build/test any more (e.g. SunOS4 LWP). >>>> The best fix may be to just use the address of the thread's stack as the >>>> thread ID.

In any case, I > agree it sounds rather more machine-dependent than the current code. That's what the LDAP_PVT_THREAD_STACK_SIZE macro tells you. It's really not hard. If we were to disallow increasing the number of threads at runtime, we could simply allocate a block of thread stacks all at once, which would then allow our thread IDs to be simple integers from 0-N. -- -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

That's for generating ssha1 hashes in hash_ssha1(), it is not used for decoding them in chk_ssha1() - which I assume is what he needs when moving _to_ OpenLDAP. chk_ssha1() looks independent of salt size - it base64-decodes the provided salt+hash and finds expects the salt to start at position LUTIL_SHA1_BYTES (from include/lutil_sha1.h) in that string. -- Regards, Hallvard

I had bad data in my cut & paste buffer last night when I tried this. Trying with the correct data works just fine. yeah!

Kurt, Zimbra has run into this issue in helping a customer who was running SunDS migrate to OpenLDAP. It does not work at all, unfortunately. Changing code to use an 8-bit salt does work. So, I'd be happy to fix this, but a general design question -- (a) Should this be implemented as a "ssha-salt" option in slapd.conf or (b) Should OpenLDAP try decrypting the password first as a 4-bit salt, and then try an 8-bit salt, then fail? (a) would be fairly portable across many salt settings, but AFAIK we've only hit 4 & 8 (b) would allow mixed salt values to be in userPassword, and I'd think that over time as people changed their passwords, it would allow the 8-bit salts to go away. Thoughts welcome. :) --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

Re: (ITS#5014) syncrepl failure syslog

donn(a)u.washington.edu wrote: > Hard to tell why syncrepl isn't working, if it discards error messages. This patch was not submitted according to the guidelines of usual contributions, which makes it hard to apply. In any case, it appears to be incorrect, since the response code should not be extracted that early, namely before getting the message type. AFAIK, only an LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT could contain an error, and that value is already parsed out and stored in "err". What's missing is a log in case "err" indicates an error. So what's really relevant in your patch, and missing from the code, is a test for "err" after the "done" label. I have applied something along those lines to the code. Please test. p. Ing.
