• fix incorrect poll.h inclusion

  sys/poll.h is a glibc legacy alias for poll.h.
  the latter is specified by POSIX, the former not.
  on glibc one of them just includes the other so it doesnt hurt.

• Chromium tried to close our pipes and falls into infinity loop.

  If return value of close() is -1, chromium will fall into infinity loop.

• libproxychains.c: fix NULL pointer dereference after fopen().

  if a configuration file can be accessed by proxychains but there is a
  mandatory access control (or other) block on the target appication's
  ability to read that file, fopen() creates a NULL pointer that will
  cause a segfault in fgets().

• overhaul README

  especially mentioning that proxychains is a HACK so it may not work.
  it is a hack because it modifies existing programs in a way not
  originally intended by its authors.
  additionally it relies on a very complicated and fragile dynamic
  linker infrastructure which can easily break, as is the case with
  glibc-linked programs that use dlopen() (see issue #10).

• fix the never-ending issues with the wrong glibc prototype of getnameinfo

  this bug was fixed shortly before 2.14 release, so we checked for that.
  however some distros decided to backport this fix to earlier versions,
  breaking our compiletime check.
  
  http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=e4ecafe004b3d4270b3a9dace8f970047400ed38
  
  the portable solution is to stick the function into a separate comilation
  unit that does not see the glibc prototype.

  rofl0r · 2012-12-12 04:04:38 +01:00
  v4.3 b255484a42
• replace hostent lookup with better performing in-memory copy.

  the central dns resolver function proxy_gethostbyname() used
  to iterate over the gethostent() db (/etc/hosts) on each dns
  request.
  since this is not threadsafe, we synchronized access to it
  previously using mutexes. the parsing of this file is slow,
  and blocking all threads to do it even moreso.
  since gethostent_r() is only available on a few platforms,
  i decided to read the hostent db once and then use a quick
  in-memory lookup on further usage.
  
  + some further refactoring.

  additionally we have some explicit init and deinit routines for
  core.c now, so that we dont need to share variables with
  libproxychains.c.

• preliminary first fork-safe version

  instead of allocating memory in the child, we now use the allocator
  thread to do all the necessary allocations himself.
  additionally we provide a clean API to query the ip <-> dns mapping.
  these functions connect via a pipe to the allocator thread, and
  exchange messages.
  
  further cleanup is needed, but it seems to work so far.
  thread-safety is not yet guaranteed.

• failed attempt to use shared memory for the ip <-> dns mapping

  this is in order to get irssi, which forks for DNS lookups,
  and similar programs, to work as intended.
  
  in a previous attempt i learned that shared memory created in a
  child process is not visible to the parent;
  in this attempt i spin off a thread from the parent which listens
  on a pipe and manages the shared memory allocation from the parent
  address-space. however this doesnt work as expected:
  memory allocated in the parent after the child forked is not visi-
  ble to the child as well.
  
  so what happens is: irssi starts a child process, the thread allocs
  memory and hands it to the child, the child attempts to write and
  segfaults. however irssi doesnt crash. since now the memory is
  already allocated, doing the dns lookup again will succeed.
  
  i.e. the dns lookup works now in irssi by luck.
  all but the first dns lookups will suceed.
  
  however this is not good enough for me to be satisfied, i commit
  this only for documentation purposes.

  in the current dir, because it started iterating the directory
