Bug ID: 2220
Summary: Add uuid-style identifier for use with ControlPath
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: -current
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh

Enhancement patch
When combining %h, %r, and %p (recommended for uniqueness) in
ControlPath,
long remote usernames and/or hostnames can cause the expansion to bump
up
against UNIX_PATH_MAX.
This patch adds a uuid-style path component (%m) that expands to the
sha1 digest of the concatenation of the local host (%l) + remote host
(%h) + remote port (%p) + remote user (%r).
The token's expanded length is a fixed 40 characters and provides a
reasonable expectation of uniqueness.
Sample usage:
ControlPath ~/.ssh/control-master/%m
