tor/changes/prop171

  o Minor features:
    - There's a new syntax for specifying multiple client ports (such as
      SOCKSPort, TransPort, DNSPort, NATDPort): you can now just declare
      multiple ...Port entries with full addr:port syntax on each.
      The old ...ListenAddress format is still supported, but you can't
      mix it with the new SOCKSPort syntax.

  o Code simplifications and refactoring:
    - Rewrote the listener-selection logic so that parsing which ports
      we want to listen on is now separate form binding to the ports
      we want.
Parse prop171 options; refactor listener/port option code Proposal 171 gives us a new syntax for parsing client port options. You can now have as many FooPort options as you want (for Foo in Socks, Trans, DNS, NATD), and they can have address:port arguments, and you can specify the level of isolation on those ports. Additionally, this patch refactors the client port parsing logic to use a new type, port_cfg_t. Previously, ports to be bound were half-parsed in config.c, and later re-parsed in connection.c when we're about to bind them. Now, parsing a port means converting it into a port_cfg_t, and binding it uses only a port_cfg_t, without needing to parse the user-provided strings at all. We should do a related refactoring on other port types. For control ports, that'll be easy enough. For ORPort and DirPort, we'll want to do this when we solve proposal 118 (letting servers bind to and advertise multiple ports). This implements tickets 3514 and 3515. 2011-06-30 20:01:02 +02:00			`o Minor features:`
