s3:rpc_server: Add samba-dcerpcd

2021-12-10T14:02:30+00:00

Central dispatcher for incoming RPC requests, supported by helpers
that implement RPC services.

Upon startup, it asks all helpers which interfaces and endpoints to
listen on so it doesn't interfere with the samba binary when we're
configured as an Active Directory Domain Controller, then samba-dcerpcd
opens the relevant sockets. Once clients connect, start required helpers
and tell them to shut down once idle for a while.

Can be started as a full standalone daemon without smbd involved or as
a helper daemon started on demand by smbd or winbind or other local
processes trying to connect to a named pipe based RPC service.

NB. To start as a standalone daemon the smb.conf [global] option
"rpc start on demand helpers = false" must be set.
By default "rpc start on demand helpers = true"
in order to allow upgrades without needing an smb.conf change.

printing: Introduce samba-bgqd

2021-05-11T22:56:37+00:00

This is a separate binary executed from start_background_queue(). As
such it does not really gain much, but the idea is to move all the
code this runs out of the smbd and spoolssd binaries to just link
here.

s3:script: Remove findsmb from default installation

2021-04-19T14:37:04+00:00

This tool is the only client tool which requires perl. Distributions are
removing perl from the default installation now.

Also this is a wrapper around nmblookup which is obsolete in the AD
world. However it might still be used by someone so move it just to
examples/scripts/nmb/

s3:modules: add vfs_io_uring module

2020-02-15T11:37:45+00:00

The module makes use of the new io_uring infrastructure
(intruduced in linux 5.1), see https://lwn.net/Articles/778411/ and
http://git.kernel.dk/cgit/liburing/

Currently this only implements SMB_VFS_{PREAD,PWRITE,FSYNC}_SEND/RECV
and avoids the overhead of our userspace threadpool.

In future we'll hopefully make more use of more advanced io_uring
features.

For now we don't have automated tests as our test infrastructure
doesn't use a recent kernel. At least we're able to do compile tests
on fedora31.
