* Implemented plugin information for external pluginsjgeboski2016-05-25-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of now, bitlbee will load any plugin regardless of the ABI it was built against. This is really problematic when structures or symbols are changed within bitlbee. This often leads to the plugin not loading or the plugin acting in an undefined way. Typically a simple rebuild of the plugin will resolve such issues, but many users have no idea that this is required after they have updated bitlbee. Furthermore, it is often times impossible to determine the version of a plugin, without relying on the package manager of the system. This is quite a problem when users are reporting bugs for external plugins, and they have no idea what version of the plugin they are running. This is also an opportunity to provide additional metadata for each plugin that can then be displayed to the user. Solving these issues is done by adding a new required function to each plugin. The init_plugin_info() function must now be implemented along with the init_plugin() function. This function then returns a static structure, which retains all of the metadata for the plugin. Then this is used by bitlbee to check the ABI version and provide information to the user. The introduction of the new function is required as bitlbee needs to obtain the ABI version before calling init_plugin(). The boiler-plate implementation of init_plugin_info(): #ifdef BITLBEE_ABI_VERSION_CODE struct plugin_info *init_plugin_info(void) { static struct plugin_info info = { BITLBEE_ABI_VERSION_CODE, /* Required */ "plugin-name", /* Required */ "1.3.3.7", /* Required */ "A short description of the plugin", /* Optional */ "First Last <alias@domain.tld>", /* Optional */ "http://www.domain.tld" /* Optional */ }; return &info; } #endif The example wraps the function declaration in an if block for backwards compatibility with older bitlbee versions. Displaying the plugin metadata is done via the newly added "plugins" command, which simply dumps formatted data to the root channel.
* Authentication: scaffolding for multiple authentication backendsDennis Kaarsemaker2016-03-25-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of always putting users passwords in XML files, allow site admins to configure a different authentication method to integrate authentication with other systems. This doesn't add any authentication backends yet, merely the scaffolding. Notably: - Password checking and loading/removing from storage has been decoupled. A new auth_check_pass function is used to check passwords. It does check against the configured storage first, but will handle the authentication backends as well. The XML storage merely signals that a user's password should be checked using an authentication backend. - If unknown-to-bitlbee users identify using an authentication backend, they are automatically registered. - If an authentication backend is used, that fact is stored in the XML file, the password is not. Passwords are also stored unencrypted in this case, as the password used to encrypt them can change underneath us. - configure and Makefile changes for the backend objects

* Avoid propagating shutdown signal to all subprocessesdequis2015-10-30-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was a sort-of-regression with 7233f68 While this behavior might seem desirable in some cases, multi-user installs like public servers would rather not kill children while upgrading. Turns out that pipes are inherited by forks, and writing in one side means there might be more than one listener that calls bitlbee_shutdown(). If the parent gets it, the children will get it too. If a child gets it, the parent and the other children get it too. This adds a sighandler_shutdown_setup() function that closes any previously existing pipes and disconnects the events from them, to create a new one. This is called again after forking each child process. While I'm sure this fixes the issue, I still don't understand why it *didn't* kill the forked processes in some cases. Worrying.
