differ from the old ones. If a requested new value is equal to the old
one, no changes will be performed for that field. If no fields are
changed, usermod will exist successfully with a warning. This avoids
logging changes to syslog when there are actually no changes.
user_newinactive. It is more simple to always have user_<x> as the old
field, and user_new<x> as the new field (even if the field did not change)
instead of changing the algorithm depending on WITH_AUDIT.
gid parameters can be set to -1 to indicate that the original
owners must be kept. Change the types from uid_t/gid_t to a
long int (signed).
* libmisc/copydir.c: Change the copy_entry(), copy_dir(),
copy_symlink(), copy_special(), and copy_file() prototypes
accordingly.
* lib/prototypes.h: Add the parameters' name for the
libmisc/copydir.c functions.
libmisc/xgetXXbyYY.c, libmisc/xgetpwnam.c, libmisc/xgetpwuid.c,
libmisc/xgetgrnam.c, libmisc/xgetgrgid.c, libmisc/xgetspnam.c:
Added functions xgetpwnam(), xgetpwuid(), xgetgrnam(),
xgetgrgid(), and xgetspnam(). They allocate memory for the
returned structure and are more robust to successive calls. They
are implemented with the libc's getxxyyy_r() functions if
available.

src/faillog.c, src/groups.c, src/chsh.c, src/id.c: Review all the
usage of one of the getpwnam(), getpwuid(), getgrnam(),
getgrgid(), and getspnam() functions. It was noticed on
http://bugs.debian.org/341230 that chfn and chsh use a passwd
structure after calling a pam function, which result in using
information from the passwd structure requested by pam, not the
original one. It is much easier to use the new xget... functions
to avoid these issues. I've checked which call to the original
get... functions could be left (reducing the scope of the
structure if possible), and I've left comments to ease future
reviews (e.g. /* local, no need for xgetpwnam */).
Note: the getpwent/getgrent calls should probably be checked also.
* src/groupdel.c, src/expiry.c: Fix typos in comments.
* src/groupmod.c: Re-indent.
* libmisc/Makefile.am, lib/groupmem.c, lib/groupio.c, lib/pwmem.c,
lib/pwio.c, lib/shadowmem.c, lib/shadowio.c: Move the __<xx>_dup
functions (used by the xget... functions) from the <xx>io.c files
to the new <xx>mem.c files. This avoid linking some utils against
the SELinux library.
spw_locked, gr_locked, and sgr_locked to indicate which files must
be unlocked.
* src/usermod.c (open_files, close_files): Open and close the
group files as well as the passwd files. This permit to check if
the group files modification are allowed before writing the passwd
files.
* src/usermod.c (grp_update, update_gshadow, update_group): Do not
return a status code, but call fail_exit() in case of error. The
group files are no more opened and closed in update_gshadow() and
update_group().
* src/usermod.c (main): move the call to grp_update between
open_files and close_files.
* src/usermod.c: Differentiate failure to add a group entry and
failure to add a shadow group entry.
