.need_oper is replaced with a generic mechanism for requiring any
privilege. need_admin remains because I think it's the least horrible
way to deal with oper:hidden_admin.
All need_oper requirements have been changed to oper:general
requirements.
I'm preparing to PR a succession of privs changes with the ultimate goal
of severely limiting the scope of the binary oper/user dichotomy and
move conceptually distinct oper functions into their own privs.
Accomplishing this is a non-trivial task, and can wait, but it's
inconvenient now to have such functions enabled by the same mechanism
that grants any privs at all--so I'm moving all of them to a
transitional priv with the intention of eroding that later.
Prior to this, m_ison would report a nick as being online if a client
that was not yet registered had chosen this nickname on the same server.
This change adds a check to make sure the struct Client has a
struct User associated with it, i.e. registration has occurred.
The existing approach to invite-notify is deeply flawed--it currently
notifies only the target user's server, and that can't be fixed without
sending notifies for invites that end up not happening.
I'm resolving this by broadcasting a second message, INVITED, from the
target user's server. I'm also pulling it out into an extension while
I'm at it--invite notifies reveal new information, so I don't think
they should be mandatory.
/modrestart used to be implemented as a normal command and could crash
when used remotely because it would reload m_encap, which was on the
call stack at the time. This was fixed in 41390bfe5f. However,
/modreload has exactly the same problem, so I'm giving it the
same treatment.
Incidentally: This bug was first discovered in ircd-seven, where the
`/mod*` commands themselves live in the core, so m_encap was the only way
the crash could happen (and it didn't most of the time, because m_encap
would only be moved if you got unlucky). But `/mod*` are in modules in
charybdis, so /modrestart would have unloaded the code it was in the
middle of executing. With that in mind, I'm not sure how it ever
appeared to work.
Charybdis' rewritten m_grant introduces at least one serious bug without
providing any apparent benefit. I think the best solution here is the
easiest one.
The bug in question is that an empty mode change is triggered after
seven's grant has done its work, and this is necessary in order to
give umodes granted by oper privileges a chance to update. The rewrite
removes this, generating a mode change only if it wants to change the
state of +o, which means the grant victim can keep privileged modes they
no longer have access to, or fail to gain new ones.
Move opername and privset storage to struct User, so it can exist for
remote opers.
On /oper and when bursting opers, send:
:foo OPER opername privset
which sets foo's opername and privset. The contents of the privset on
remote servers come from the remote server's config, so the potential
for confusion exists if these do not match.
If an oper's privset does not exist on a server that sees it, it will
complain, but create a placeholder privset. If the privset is created by
a rehash, this will be reflected properly.
/privs is udpated to take an optional argument, the server to query, and
is now local by default:
/privs [[nick_or_server] nick]
As it stands, oper hiding is rather messy and inconsistent. Add
SeesOper(target, source), which is true iff target should appear as an
oper to source. If I haven't missed something, all commands that reveal
oper status now use the same logic.
general::hide_opers_in_whois is a special case, and affects /whois only.
general::hide_opers is introduced, and has the same effect as giving
everyone oper:hidden. All commands that reveal oper status respect both.
Reloading modules sends CAP DEL followed by an immediate CAP NEW:
:staberinde.local CAP * DEL :account-tag
:staberinde.local CAP * NEW :account-tag
This isn't very nice. /modrestart is particularly bad. In order to avoid
doing this, we remember the capability set at the beginning of module
operations, compare that with the set afterwards, and report only the
differences with CAP {DEL,NEW}.
