ldb: ensure that ldbedit operates like ldbmodify: set DONT_CREATE_DB

2020-03-02T02:47:30+00:00

ldb* tools, when passed a raw filename assume tdb://

By default, ldb_tdb will call tdb with O_CREAT.

TDB, when passed O_CREAT and a not-tdb file, will wipe the file.

This means that if you run ldbedit  the file
will be wiped, which is unexpected.  I noticed this while trying to
corrupt a sam.ldb backend file (for testing), but instead I wiped it!

Ideally tdb would not do that, but the behaviour has been this way for
decades.  Ideally ldb would have had a "create db" command, but this
has been the job of ldbadd for over a decade.

So this just blunts the knife for ldbedit.

ldbedit: Prevent the use of the reveal internals control

2017-02-22T03:23:05+00:00

This is almost certainly not what you want to do. Providing the output of reveal as the input of modify
will necessarily revivify all dead linked attributes (regardless of --extended-dn or not).

This is extremely unexpected behaviour, so we prevent this from happening.

Revert "ldb: Permit desactivation of autocomit for every ldb_xxx_ctrl function"

2012-04-10T06:40:05+00:00

This reverts commit 40a4aea8918c2637703af03383f440d068820e48.

Autocommit is important, as otherwise an ldb module could error out
during an operation, and leave an corrupt database.
