From 5bb0c0596765dd5dd1973b7fc2d1e830bca3e345 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Slebodnik Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2014 12:02:10 +0100 Subject: sss_client: Work around glibc bug glibc is inconsistent with how it treats and returns NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL. The sss nss plugin is present in nsswitch by default on some platforms due to glibc caching and problem with long living applications (e.g. GNOME). But sssd needn't be configuread and it cause problems in some programs. In this situation, the SSSD nss plugin should behave as if it was functioning but had no data even thought sssd is not running. The errors have to be passed from nss plugin up to the user with minimal moidiffication. Thanks to Stephen Gallagher for initial patch.
