Also, change sources.redhat.com to sourceware.org.
This patch was automatically generated by running the following shell
script, which uses GNU sed, and which avoids modifying files imported
from upstream:
sed -ri '
s,(http|ftp)(://(.*\.)?(gnu|fsf|sourceware)\.org($|[^.]|\.[^a-z])),https\2,g
s,(http|ftp)(://(.*\.)?)sources\.redhat\.com($|[^.]|\.[^a-z]),https\2sourceware.org\4,g

-print)
and then by running 'make dist-prepare' to regenerate files built
from the altered files, and then executing the following to cleanup:
chmod a+x sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/riscv/configure
# Omit irrelevant whitespace and comment-only changes,
# perhaps from a slightly-different Autoconf version.
git checkout -f \
sysdeps/csky/configure \

sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/csky/configure
# Omit changes that caused a pre-commit check to fail like this:

This is a major rewrite of the description of 'crypt', 'getentropy',
and 'getrandom'.
A few highlights of the content changes:
- Throughout the manual, public headers, and user-visible messages,
I replaced the term "password" with "passphrase", the term
"password database" with "user database", and the term
"encrypt(ion)" with "(one-way) hashing" whenever it was applied to
passphrases. I didn't bother making this change in internal code
or tests. The use of the term "password" in ruserpass.c survives,
because that refers to a keyword in netrc files, but it is adjusted
to make this clearer.
There is a note in crypt.texi explaining that they were
traditionally called passwords but single words are not good enough
anymore, and a note in users.texi explaining that actual passphrase
hashes are found in a "shadow" database nowadays.
- There is a new short introduction to the "Cryptographic Functions"
section, explaining how we do not intend to be a general-purpose
cryptography library, and cautioning that there _are_, or have
been, legal restrictions on the use of cryptography in many
countries, without getting into any kind of detail that we can't
promise to keep up to date.
- I added more detail about what a "one-way function" is, and why
they are used to obscure passphrases for storage. I removed the
paragraph saying that systems not connected to a network need no
user authentication, because that's a pretty rare situation
nowadays. (It still says "sometimes it is necessary" to
authenticate the user, though.)
- I added documentation for all of the hash functions that glibc
actually supports, but not for the additional hash functions
supported by libxcrypt. If we're going to keep this manual section
around after the transition is more advanced, it would probably
make sense to add them then.
- There is much more detailed discussion of how to generate a salt,
and the failure behavior for crypt is documented. (Returning an
invalid hash on failure is what libxcrypt does; Solar Designer's
notes say that this was done "for compatibility with old programs
that assume crypt can never fail".)
- As far as I can tell, the header 'crypt.h' is entirely a GNU
invention, and never existed on any other Unix lineage. The
function 'crypt', however, was in Issue 1 of the SVID and is now
in the XSI component of POSIX. I tried to make all of the
@standards annotations consistent with this, but I'm not sure I got
them perfectly right.
- The genpass.c example has been improved to use getentropy instead
of the current time to generate the salt, and to use a SHA-256 hash
instead of MD5. It uses more random bytes than is strictly
necessary because I didn't want to complicate the code with proper
base64 encoding.
- The testpass.c example has three hardwired hashes now, to
demonstrate that different one-way functions produce different
hashes for the same input. It also demonstrates how DES hashing
only pays attention to the first eight characters of the input.
- There is new text explaining in more detail how a CSPRNG differs
from a regular random number generator, and how
getentropy/getrandom are not exactly a CSPRNG. I tried not to make
specific falsifiable claims here. I also tried to make the
blocking/cancellation/error behavior of both getentropy and
getrandom clearer.

The functions encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r, cbc_crypt,
ecb_crypt, and des_setparity should not be used in new programs,
because they use the DES block cipher, which is unacceptably weak by
modern standards. Demote all of them to compatibility symbols, and
remove their prototypes from installed headers. cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt,
and des_setparity were already compat symbols when glibc was
configured with --disable-obsolete-rpc.
POSIX requires encrypt and setkey to be available when _XOPEN_CRYPT
is defined, so this change also removes the definition of X_OPEN_CRYPT
from <unistd.h>.
The entire "DES Encryption" section is dropped from the manual, as is
the mention of AUTH_DES and FIPS 140-2 in the introduction to
crypt.texi. The documentation of 'memfrob' cross-referenced the DES
Encryption section, which is replaced by a hyperlink to libgcrypt, and
while I was in there I spruced up the actual documentation of
'memfrob' and 'strfry' a little. It's still fairly jokey, because
those functions _are_ jokes, but they do also have real use cases, so
people trying to use them for real should have all the information
they need.
DES-based authentication for Sun RPC is also insecure and should be
deprecated or even removed, but maybe that can be left as TI-RPC's
problem.

As detailed in PR11157, the use of '__block' is known to interfere
with keywords in some environments, such as the Clang -fblocks extension.
Recently a similar issue was raised concerning the use of '__unused'
and a '__glibc' prefix was proposed to create a glibc implementation
namespace for these sorts of issues [1]. This patches takes that
approach.
