Note that you must have options ACCEPT_FILTER_DATA in your kernel
configuration or load the accf_data kernel module. The functionality is
not in the GENERIC kernel.
This allows for some further hardening against synflooding and connection flooding
where no data is actually sent, as the kernel will simply ignore those connections
(well, as far as the ircd is concerned anyway).
Arbitrarily prefer a forward channel to no forward channel and an
alphabetically higher forward channel to a lower one.
This is a simplistic implementation that generates one MODE message to
local clients for each ban removed (to be replaced).
For simplicity and to avoid amplification of incoming MODE messages,
regular modes may still desync the forward channel of a ban.
Add two mechanism for avoiding name-collisions in a system-wide
installation of charybdis. The ssld and bandb daemons, intended to be
directly used by ircd and not the user, install into libexec when
--enable-fhs-paths is set. For binaries which are meant to be in PATH
(bindir), such as ircd and viconf, there is now an option
--with-program-prefix=progprefix inspired by automake. If the user
specifies --with-program-prefix=charybdis, the ircd binary is named
charybdisircd when installed.
Add support for saving the pidfile to a rundir and storing the ban
database in localstatedir instead of in sysconfdir. This is, again,
conditional on --enable-fhs-paths.
Fix(?) genssl.sh to always write created SSL key/certificate/dh
parameters to the sysconfdir specified during ./configure. The
previous behavior was to assume that the user ran genssl.sh after
ensuring that his current working directory was either sysconfdir or a
sibling directory of sysconfdir.
This becomes important because of away-notify sending aways to common
channels much like nick changes (which are also paced).
Marking as unaway is not limited (but obviously only does something if the
user was away before). To allow users to fix typos in away messages, two
aways are allowed in sequence if away has not been used recently.
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.
