* manual: Revise crypt.texi.Zack Weinberg2018-06-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a major rewrite of the description of 'crypt', 'getentropy', and 'getrandom'. A few highlights of the content changes: - Throughout the manual, public headers, and user-visible messages, I replaced the term "password" with "passphrase", the term "password database" with "user database", and the term "encrypt(ion)" with "(one-way) hashing" whenever it was applied to passphrases. I didn't bother making this change in internal code or tests. The use of the term "password" in ruserpass.c survives, because that refers to a keyword in netrc files, but it is adjusted to make this clearer. There is a note in crypt.texi explaining that they were traditionally called passwords but single words are not good enough anymore, and a note in users.texi explaining that actual passphrase hashes are found in a "shadow" database nowadays. - There is a new short introduction to the "Cryptographic Functions" section, explaining how we do not intend to be a general-purpose cryptography library, and cautioning that there _are_, or have been, legal restrictions on the use of cryptography in many countries, without getting into any kind of detail that we can't promise to keep up to date. - I added more detail about what a "one-way function" is, and why they are used to obscure passphrases for storage. I removed the paragraph saying that systems not connected to a network need no user authentication, because that's a pretty rare situation nowadays. (It still says "sometimes it is necessary" to authenticate the user, though.) - I added documentation for all of the hash functions that glibc actually supports, but not for the additional hash functions supported by libxcrypt. If we're going to keep this manual section around after the transition is more advanced, it would probably make sense to add them then. - There is much more detailed discussion of how to generate a salt, and the failure behavior for crypt is documented. (Returning an invalid hash on failure is what libxcrypt does; Solar Designer's notes say that this was done "for compatibility with old programs that assume crypt can never fail".) - As far as I can tell, the header 'crypt.h' is entirely a GNU invention, and never existed on any other Unix lineage. The function 'crypt', however, was in Issue 1 of the SVID and is now in the XSI component of POSIX. I tried to make all of the @standards annotations consistent with this, but I'm not sure I got them perfectly right. - The genpass.c example has been improved to use getentropy instead of the current time to generate the salt, and to use a SHA-256 hash instead of MD5. It uses more random bytes than is strictly necessary because I didn't want to complicate the code with proper base64 encoding. - The testpass.c example has three hardwired hashes now, to demonstrate that different one-way functions produce different hashes for the same input. It also demonstrates how DES hashing only pays attention to the first eight characters of the input. - There is new text explaining in more detail how a CSPRNG differs from a regular random number generator, and how getentropy/getrandom are not exactly a CSPRNG. I tried not to make specific falsifiable claims here. I also tried to make the blocking/cancellation/error behavior of both getentropy and getrandom clearer.
* Remove tilegx port.Joseph Myers2018-04-271-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since tile support has been removed from the Linux kernel for 4.17, this patch removes the (unmaintained) port to tilegx from glibc (the tilepro support having been previously removed). This reflects the general principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture in all the components it build-depends on (so binutils, GCC and the Linux kernel, for the normal case of a port supporting the Linux kernel but no other OS), in order to be maintainable. Apart from removal of sysdeps/tile and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile, there are updates to various comments referencing tile for which removal of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed from README and from build-many-glibcs.py. contrib.texi keeps mention of removed contributions, but I updated Chris Metcalf's entry to reflect that he also contributed the non-removed support for the generic Linux kernel syscall interface. __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_NO_ALIGN support is removed, as it was only used by tile. * sysdeps/tile: Remove. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile: Likewise. * README (tilegx-*-linux-gnu): Remove from list of supported configurations. * manual/contrib.texi (Contributors): Mention Chris Metcalf's contribution of support for generic Linux kernel syscall interface. * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Remove tilegx configurations.

* Remove Banner mechanism.Joseph Myers2017-09-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the Banner mechanism, with the last remaining Banner file replaced by a contrib.texi entry. This accords with the principle that the output of running libc.so.6 is not the place to credit particular contributions (the manual is), and with all other configuration options not mentioned there, it doesn't seem appropriate to focus there on the one question of whether the one remaining piece configured as an add-on was enabled or not. Tested for x86_64. * csu/Makefile (generated): Do not add version-info.h. (before-compile): Likewise. (all-Banner-files): Remove variable. ($(objpfx)version-info.h): Remove rule. * csu/version.c (banner): Do not include "version-info.h". * libidn/Banner: Remove. * manual/contrib.texi (Simon Josefsson): New entry.
* Remove non-add-on Banner files.Joseph Myers2017-09-211-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various subdirectories of glibc include Banner files to put some text in the output of executing libc.so.6, under "Available extensions". Some of those subdirectories (e.g. crypt) may originally have been add-ons (and so optional, so a particular glibc build might or might not have included them), but except for libidn they aren't now (or if only included in some builds, in the case of soft-fp, the inclusion depends on the architecture for which glibc is configured rather than having any glibc configuration for which it's an optional feature), and it doesn't seem useful for the libc.so.6 output to call out a few features like that. This patch removes the non-add-on Banner files, updating contrib.texi where they noted contributions not otherwise mentioned there. Tested for x86_64. * crypt/Banner: Remove file. * nptl/Banner: Likewise. * resolv/Banner: Likewise. * soft-fp/Banner: Likewise. * nptl/Makefile ($(objpfx)banner.h): Remove rule. ($(objpfx)version.d): Remove dependency on banner.h.

* Manual for platform-specific features and new __ppc_get_timebase inline.Tulio Magno Quites Machado Filho2012-06-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | [BZ #13743] A new class of installed headers has been documented for low-level platform-specific functionality. PowerPC added the first instance with a function to provide time base register access (__ppc_get_timebase). This is required for applications that measure time at high frequencies with high precision that can't afford a syscall.
