- Headers now to be included as <maxscale/xyz.h>
- First step, no cleanup of headers has been made. Only moving
from one place to another + necessary modifications.
Authenticators now have a similar mechanism to the `router_options`
parameter which enables configurable authentication.
The authenticators also have a new initialize entry point which is similar
to the createInstance entry point of the filters and routers. The value of
`authenticator_options` is passed as a parameter to this function. The
return vaulue of the `initialize` entry point is passed to the `create`
entry point.
The first message exchange between the server and the client will almost
always contain the same data. If the server is going to change
authentication methods, it will send an AuthSwitchRequest packet instead
of the OK/ERR packet that it would normally send. Only after this point
the authenticator modules actually need to do something.
In the case of the default 'mysql_native_password' plugin, the only thing
that the plugin needs to do is to check whether the server responded with
an OK packet.
The create and destroy entry points allow authenticators to store data in
the DCB. This data is not shared by other DCBs related to the same
session.
The plugin_name entry point wasn't really useful as the plugins would
still need to send a AuthSwitchRequest packet if they wanted to change the
authentication mechanism.
The authentication for backend connections is now done in the
MySQLBackendAuth module. This is also the default authentication module
for backend connections created by MySQLBackend.
