Hi
I was wondering why the argon2 password module can only be built as a
dynamic module, and not statically into the slapd binary, like other
backends and overlays can be.
That would for example make it easier to use slappasswd -h {ARGON2}
without having to specify -o module-load=argon2 and module-path etc.
Is it because you want to avoid link dependencies on 3rd party libsodium
or libargon2 directly in slapd (and slappasswd) itself? Or just because
it was previously a contrib module, and just copied over like that?
By the way, while looking at the code, I noticed a typo in configure.ac:
> if test "$ol_enable_argon2" = "yes" ; then
> SLAPD_DYNAMIC_PWMODS="$SLAPD_DYNAMIC_PWDMODS argon2.la"

It's referencing two different variables there, which is harmless today,
but will be a build bug once multiple password modules become available.
SLAPD_DYNAMIC_PWMODS is the correct one.
