Ed Schouten 2208eadf43 Add a new library: libulog. ... One of the things I really want to do, is to get rid of the limitations of our current utmp(5) mechanism: - It only allows 8 byte TTY device names. - The hostname only allows 16 bytes of storage. I'm not a big fan of <utmpx.h>, but I think we should at least try to add parts of it. Unfortunately we cannot implement <utmpx.h>, because we miss various fields, such as ut_id, ut_pid, etc. The API provided by libulog shares some similarities with <utmpx.h>, so it shouldn't be too hard to port these applications eventually. In most simple cases, it should just be a matter of removing the ulog_ prefix everywhere. As a bonus, it also implements a function called ulog_login_pseudo(), which allows unprivileged applications to write log entries, provided they have a valid file descriptor to a pseudo-terminal master device. libulog will allow a smoother transition to a new file format by adding a library interface to deal with utmp/wtmp/lastlog files. I initially thought about adding the functionality to libutil, but because I'm not planning on keeping this library around forever, we'd better keep it separated. Next items on the todo list: 1. Port applications in the base system (and ports) to libulog, instead of letting them use <utmp.h>. 2. Remove <utmp.h>, implement <utmpx.h> and reimplement this library on top. 3. Port as many applications as possible back to <utmpx.h>.		2009-12-03 15:48:24 +00:00
