[ 2] Test compliance with standards. If you have access to recent
standards (IEEE, ISO, ANSI, X/Open, ...) and/or test suites you
could do some checks as the goal is to be compliant with all
standards if they do not contradict each other.
[ 3] The IMHO opinion most important task is to write a more complete
test suite. We cannot get too many people working on this. It is
not difficult to write a test, find a definition of the function
which I normally can provide, if necessary, and start writing tests
to test for compliance. Beside this, take a look at the sources
and write tests which in total test as many paths of execution as
possible.
[ 4] Write translations for the GNU libc message for the so far

a short description of the function and its parameters. The prototypes

Blargh!
*** The conformtest.pl tool helps cleaning the namespace. As far as
known the prototypes all contain parameter names. But maybe some
comments can be improved.
[16] The libio stream file functions should be extended in a way to use
mmap to map the file and use it as the buffer to user sees. For
read-only streams this should be rather easy and it avoids all read()
calls.
A more sophisticated solution would use mmap also for writing. The
standards do not demand that the file on the disk is always in the
correct form so it would be possible to enlarge it always according
to the page size and install the correct length only for fclose() and
fflush() calls.
[18] Based on the sprof program we need tools to analyze the output. The
result should be a link map which specifies in which order the .o
files are placed in the shared object. This should help to improve
code locality and result in a smaller foorprint (in code and data
memory) since less pages are only used in small parts.
[19] A user-level STREAMS implementation should be available if the
kernel does not provide the support.
*** This is a much lower priority job now that STREAMS are optional in
XPG.
[20] More conversion modules for iconv(3). Existing modules should be
extended to do things like transliteration if this is wanted.
For often used conversion a direct conversion function should be
available.
[21] The nscd program and the stubs in the libc should be changed so
that each program uses only one socket connect. Take a look at
http://www.cygnus.com/~drepper/nscd.html
1998-07-10 23:11:01 +02:00
An alternative approach is to use an mmap()ed file. The idea is
the following:
- the nscd creates the hash tables and the information it stores
in it in a mmap()ed region. This means no pointers must be
used, only offsets.

OR
if POSIX shared memory is available use a named shared memory
region to put the data in
- each program using NSS functionality tries to open the file
with the data.
- by checking some timestamp (which the nscd renews frequently)
the programs can test whether the file is still valid
- if the file is valid look through the nscd and locate the
appropriate hash table for the database and lookup the data.
If it is included we are set.
- if the data is not yet in the database we contact the nscd using
the currently implemented methods.

[22] It should be possible to have the information gconv-modules in
a simple cache which is faster to access. Using libdb is probably
1998-07-10 23:11:01 +02:00
overkill and loading it would probably be slower than reading the
plain text file. But a file format with a simple hash table and
some data it points to should be fine. Probably it should be
two tables, one for the aliases, one for the mappings. The code
should start similar to this:
if (stat ("gconv-modules", &stp) == 0
&& stat ("gconv-modules.db", &std) == 0
1998-07-10 23:11:01 +02:00
&& stp.st_mtime < std.st_mtime)
{
... use the cache ...
1998-07-10 23:11:01 +02:00
{
else
{
... use the plain file if it exists, otherwise the db ...
}

[23] The `strptime' function needs to be completed. This includes among
other things that it must get teached about timezones. The solution
envisioned is to extract the timezones from the ADO timezone
specifications. Special care must be given names which are used
multiple times. Here the precedence should (probably) be according
to the geograhical distance. E.g., the timezone EST should be
treated as the `Eastern Australia Time' instead of the US `Eastern
Standard Time' if the current TZ variable is set to, say,
Australia/Canberra or if the current locale is en_AU.
[25] Sun's nscd version implements a feature where the nscd keeps N entries
for each database current. I.e., if an entries lifespan is over and
it is one of the N entries to be kept the nscd updates the information
instead of removing the entry.
How to decide about which N entries to keep has to be examined.
Factors should be number of uses (of course), influenced by aging.
Just imagine a computer used by several people. The IDs of the current
user should be preferred even if the last user spent more time.

[27] We need a second test suite with tests which cannot run during a normal
`make check' run. This test suite can require root priviledges and
can test things like DNS (i.e., require network access),
user-interaction, networking in general, and probably many other things.
