systemd-sd-notify-support.patch [PATCH 1/2] systemd integration: notify service manager when ready

With Type=simple or Type=forking, systemd does not really know when the
service is ready to accept connections and might start depending
services too early. Use Type=notify to explicitly tell the service
manager when the service is ready.

For a real problem caused by assuming readiness too early, please see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=951722

For the meaning of the service type and details of the readiness
protocol, see also the following links:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html#Type=
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/sd_notify.html

As discussed in the last link, more elaborate state notifications are
possible. This patch only implements the most basic part.

Original patch prepared by Michael Biebl, with slight modification.

doveadm-director.1-drop-acute-accent.patch doveadm-director.1: drop acute accent
Found by Lintian:

This manual page uses the \' groff sequence. Usually, the intent to
generate an apostrophe, but that sequence actually renders as a an acute
accent.

For an apostrophe or a single closing quote, use plain '. For single
opening quote, i.e. a straight downward line ' like the one used in
shell commands, use &#92;(aq.

Improve-cross-compile-support.patch Improve cross-compile support
The check for the signedness of size_t really doesn't have to be run as
that is a compile time property.

Beyond that, dovecot uses mysql_config. I've looked into that and
mysql_config is unfixably broken during cross builds. It will not be
fixed. Instead, please use pkg-config. My patch implements that with a
fallback to mysql_config to avoid breaking other users.

Last but not least, src/lib-lua/Makefile.am adds $(LUA_LIBS) to
libdovecot_lua_la_DEPENDENCIES. As it happens, LUA_LIBS contains a -L
flag and when that flag shows up in a dependency, make gives up. I have
no clue why one would add LUA_LIBS to DEPENDENCIES as it already is
being correctly added to LIBADD. My patch suggests to quite simply drop
that.

CVE-2021-33515.patch commit 321c339756f9b2b98fb7326359d1333adebb5295

lib-smtp: smtp-server-connection - Fix STARTTLS command injection vulnerability.

The input handler kept reading more commands even though the input was locked by
the STARTTLS command, thereby causing it to read the command pipelined beyond
STARTTLS. This causes a STARTTLS command injection vulerability.

auth-Fix-handling-passdbs-with-identical-driver-args-but-.patch auth: Fix handling passdbs with identical driver/args but different mechanisms/username_filter

The passdb was wrongly deduplicated in this situation, causing wrong
mechanisms or username_filter setting to be used. This would be a rather
unlikely configuration though.

Fixed by moving mechanisms and username_filter from struct passdb_module
to struct auth_passdb, which is where they should have been in the first
place.
