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.
Also fix up some return values and stuff to use bool (or void if
nothing). I just did it whilst I was here.
According to jilles, the return value used to signify whether or not the
client had exited. This was error-prone and was fixed a long, long time
ago, but the return value was left int for historical reasons.
Since the return type is not used (and has no clear use case anyway),
it's safe to just get rid of it.
Charybdis requires C99 already, so it's high time we start using
stdbool. I've converted a few pieces of code already.
A lot of the old code that uses YES/NO should probably be updated too
because that's fucking hideous.
While functionally compatible with the implementation in ElementalIRCd, our approach is different,
specifically pre-calculating the bitmask at config load time. This is more efficient, and allows us
to report errors as part of the configuration phase.
s_assert requires some higher-level functionality that shouldn't be
present in ircd_defs.h. ircd_defs.h is used by ssld, which has no notion
of logging or sending IRC messages. Additionally, some of the headers
s_assert depends on result in conflicting definitions in ssld.c.
This change also fixes the compile when using --enable-assert=soft.
This was broken by 6f7b36d5d0 in February
2013, as join failures are the only situation where a non-trivial
numeric is passed through from other code to be sent to a client. Fix it
by porting more code from ircd-ratbox 3.1.
If a netburst adds bans or a channel TS change removes bans, +b/-b modes
are generated. Make sure these contain the forward channel, if any.
This appears also broken in ircd-seven.
nenolod gave the thumbs-up to port ircd-seven banfowards to charybdis to spb
for a while, and people have asked about it. Might as well do it since it's a
slow weekend.
Note that as a side effect use_forward is removed from the config and
unconditionally enabled!
Do kick_on_split_riding if services sends an SJOIN
with a lower TS and a different key. This relies on
services restoring TS (changets option in atheme) and
services not immediately parting after receiving the
KICK, which is the case in recent atheme.
For invite-only channels, still only do
kick_on_split_riding in netbursts. Services is
assumed to handle this itself (atheme does).
The reason why we do this is because some clients are dependent on receiving a numeric
for every channel join failure, even due to this limit where it can be assumed that
subsequent joins failed.
