Often two (or more) scripts using the same library would
overwrite the globals each was using. This would result
in (at best) an error or (at worst) a deadlock.
The patch changes the global accesses to local.
sending. In send_ip_packet, unswap them after sending so that the buffer is
returned unmodified. Do the packet trace after unswapping the values so that
the correct length and fragmentation offset are reported. On Mac OS X, an
ip_len of 60 (0x003c) was being reported as 15360 (0x3c00) and when ip_off had
the DF flag set (0x4000), it looked like a fragmentation offset of 512
(0x0040 * 8).
which have been merged to the upstream libdnet repository and thus
do not have to be re-applied when the libdnet version included with
Nmap is updated in the future.
GC for collecting socket locks [1].
If a thread does not close any sockets it creates, and then
returns (or errors), the thread and sockets will keep their "lock" until
garbage collected. This would be the same situation as before in this
particular case (reliance on GC).
To fix this, I have changed the socket unlock system to close all the sockets
of a thread not yielded and remove its "lock".

o Added a convenience top-level BSD makefile redirecting BSD make
to GNU make on BSD systems. This should help prevent bogus
error reports when users run "make" instead of "gmake" on BSD
systems. [Daniel Roethlisberger]

[NSE] The NSE Nsock Library binding no longer relies on garbage collection to
monitor the use of socket "slots". A thread (script) attempting to connect must
first obtain one of a limited number of available socket locks (usually 10 or
--max-parallelism). The binding would use garbage collection of sockets to
determine when a thread has finished using its allocated sockets. This is
unfortunately slow and requires us to constantly run the garbage collector to
cause timely reallocation. I have changed the binding to now regularly inspect
allocated sockets in the nsock_loop function. Available sockets slots are now
immediately reallocated and done with far less execution time.
See [1] for benchmarks and further explanation.

[NSE] Fixed a rare (and usually undetectable) bug that can cause a SEGFAULT.
The NSE nsock library binding may attempt to push values on the stack of
a thread that ended due to an error. It is possible that the internal
Lua stack was completely full and any further pushed values would result
in a segmentation memory violation.
This bug is very hard to reproduce with a SEGFAULT but is usually visible
when Lua assertion checks are turned on. A socket handler routine must be
called AFTER a thread has ended in error.

Fixed buffering problem exposed by david on nmap-dev list.

[NSE] We now propogate a NSE initiated yield on a script through all user
coroutines so that NSE may resume control. Previously, scripts that would yield
in a child coroutine (e.g. a script's child coroutine generated by Lua's
coroutine.create function) would give control back to the script. A script
would yield in this way by making a blocking socket operation. NSE would be
unable to correctly resume child coroutine when the socket operation is
finished processing.
By yielding the chain of coroutines a script has operating, we allow to NSE to
handle the socket operation properly. NSE would then resume the entire chain so
execution may correctly resume at the coroutine which initiated the socket
operation. This restores the "illusion" that a script executes without
interruption.
See [1] for more information, further explanation, and some use cases.

The configure script now allows cross-compiling by assuming that
libpcap is recent enough. Previously it would quit because a test
program could not be run. libpcap will always be recent enough when
the included copy is used. The patch was contributed by Mike
Frysinger.
