Open jobs for finishing GNU libc:

Blargh!

[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()

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.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
[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
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
- each program using NSS functionality tries to open the file
|
||||
with the data.
|
||||
- by checking some timestamp (which the nscd renew 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 database which is faster to access. Using libdb is probably
|
||||
overkill and loading it would probably be slower than reading the

[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

[24] Allow add-ons to specify dependencies and generate the content of

`all-subdirs' in Makeconfig dynamically.
|

|

[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.
