this is in preparation for replacing DES ticket encryption with
something better. but first need to make the code stop making
assumptions.
the wire encoding of the Ticket might be variable length
with TICKETLEN just giving an upper bound. the details will be
handled by libauthsrv _asgetticket() and _asgetresp() funciotns.
the Authenticator and Passwordreq structures are encrypted
with the random ticket key. The encryption schmeme will depend
on the Ticket format used, so we pass the Ticket* structure
instead of the DES key.
introduce Authkey structure that will hold all the required
cryptographic keys instead of passing DES key.
theres code that assumes one can dereference a char[] buffer on the stack
as a long (ghostscript gxblend.c), so make sure all automatics on the stack
are word aligned. this is not strictrly neccesary, but avoids some
trouble with unportable code.
buffers which still have requests queued on them are not free!
we cannot chanedev() a buffer while it has still requests queued on it
and we canot just queue our request (having different address) on the
buffer while there are other requests before it, otherwise we would
create artificial block dependency that can cause deadlock.
it is possible for another getbuf() on buffer b to come in
before undelayreq() calls givebuf() on a buffer again. then
givebuf() would find b already busy and abort().
instead, we now handle what getbuf() did in givebuf() and
consider the Buf* argument to givebuf() as a hint only for
the case when we have to actually flush/read a block from
disk.
this allows members of the -1 group to create new directories in /
without having to fiddle with the fileserver console. this also
makes it consistent to hjfs and cwfs.
