This is the ipa krb5kdc database backend. This is the ipa krb5kdc database backend.
As the KDB interfaces heavily with krb5, we inherit its code style as well.
However, note the following changes:
- no modelines (and different file preamble)
- return types don't require their own line
- single-statement blocks may optionally be braced
- /* and */ do not ever get their own line
- C99 for-loops are permitted (and encouraged)
- a restricted set of other C99 features are permitted
In particular, variable-length arrays, flexible array members, compound
literals, universal character names, and //-style comments are not permitted.
Use of regular malloc/free is preferred over talloc for new code.
By and large, existing code mostly conforms to these requirements. New code
must conform to them.
