Changes in version 0.3.2.2-alpha - 2017-09-29
|
||||
Tor-0.3.2.2-alpha is the second release in the 0.3.2 series. This
|
||||
release fixes several minor bugs in the new scheduler and next-
|
||||
generation onion services; both features were newly added in the 0.3.2
|
||||
series. Other fixes in this alpha include several fixes for non-fatal
|
||||
tracebacks which would appear in logs.
|
||||
|
||||
With the aim to stabilise the 0.3.2 series by 15 December 2017, this
|
||||
alpha does not contain any substantial new features. Minor features
|
||||
include better testing and logging.
|
||||
|
||||
The following comprises the complete list of changes included
|
||||
in tor-0.3.2.2-alpha:
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (relay, crash, assertion failure):
|
||||
- Fix a timing-based assertion failure that could occur when the
|
||||
circuit out-of-memory handler freed a connection's output buffer.
|
||||
Fixes bug 23690; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (scheduler):
|
||||
- If a channel is put into the scheduler's pending list, then it
|
||||
starts closing, and then if the scheduler runs before it finishes
|
||||
closing, the scheduler will get stuck trying to flush its cells
|
||||
while the lower layers refuse to cooperate. Fix that race
|
||||
condition by given the scheduler an escape method. Fixes bug
|
||||
23676; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (build, compilation):
|
||||
- The "check-changes" feature is now part of the "make check" tests;
|
||||
we'll use it to try to prevent misformed changes files from
|
||||
accumulating. Closes ticket 23564.
|
||||
- Tor builds should now fail if there are any mismatches between the
|
||||
C type representing a configuration variable and the C type the
|
||||
data-driven parser uses to store a value there. Previously, we
|
||||
needed to check these by hand, which sometimes led to mistakes.
|
||||
Closes ticket 23643.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (directory authorities):
|
||||
- Remove longclaw's IPv6 address, as it will soon change. Authority
|
||||
IPv6 addresses were originally added in 0.2.8.1-alpha. This leaves
|
||||
3/8 directory authorities with IPv6 addresses, but there are also
|
||||
52 fallback directory mirrors with IPv6 addresses. Resolves 19760.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (hidden service, circuit, logging):
|
||||
- Improve logging of many callsite in the circuit subsystem to print
|
||||
the circuit identifier(s).
|
||||
- Log when we cleanup an intro point from a service so we know when
|
||||
and for what reason it happened. Closes ticket 23604.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (logging):
|
||||
- Log more circuit information whenever we are about to try to
|
||||
package a relay cell on a circuit with a nonexistent n_chan.
|
||||
Attempt to diagnose ticket 8185.
|
||||
- Improve info-level log identification of particular circuits, to
|
||||
help with debugging. Closes ticket 23645.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (relay):
|
||||
- When choosing which circuits can be expired as unused, consider
|
||||
circuits from clients even if those clients used regular CREATE
|
||||
cells to make them; and do not consider circuits from relays even
|
||||
if they were made with CREATE_FAST. Part of ticket 22805.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (robustness):
|
||||
- Change several fatal assertions when flushing buffers into non-
|
||||
fatal assertions, to prevent any recurrence of 23690.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (spec conformance, bridge, diagnostic):
|
||||
- When handling the USERADDR command on an ExtOrPort, warn when the
|
||||
transports provides a USERADDR with no port. In a future version,
|
||||
USERADDR commands of this format may be rejected. Detects problems
|
||||
related to ticket 23080.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (testing):
|
||||
- Add a unit test to make sure that our own generated platform
|
||||
string will be accepted by directory authorities. Closes
|
||||
ticket 22109.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (bootstrapping):
|
||||
- When warning about state file clock skew, report the correct
|
||||
direction for the detected skew. Fixes bug 23606; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Avoid an assertion failure when logging a state file clock skew
|
||||
very early in bootstrapping. Fixes bug 23607; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (build, compilation):
|
||||
- Fix a compilation warning when building with zstd support on
|
||||
32-bit platforms. Fixes bug 23568; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. Found
|
||||
and fixed by Andreas Stieger.
|
||||
- When searching for OpenSSL, don't accept any OpenSSL library that
|
||||
lacks TLSv1_1_method(): Tor doesn't build with those versions.
|
||||
Additionally, look in /usr/local/opt/openssl, if it's present.
|
||||
These changes together repair the default build on OSX systems
|
||||
with Homebrew installed. Fixes bug 23602; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (compression):
|
||||
- Handle a pathological case when decompressing Zstandard data when
|
||||
the output buffer size is zero. Fixes bug 23551; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (documentation):
|
||||
- Fix manpage to not refer to the obsolete (and misspelled)
|
||||
UseEntryGuardsAsDirectoryGuards parameter in the description of
|
||||
NumDirectoryGuards. Fixes bug 23611; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service v3):
|
||||
- Don't log an assertion failure when we can't find the right
|
||||
information to extend to an introduction point. In rare cases,
|
||||
this could happen, causing a warning, even though tor would
|
||||
recover gracefully. Fixes bug 23159; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Pad RENDEZVOUS cell up to the size of the legacy cell which is
|
||||
much bigger so the rendezvous point can't distinguish which hidden
|
||||
service protocol is being used. Fixes bug 23420; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service, relay):
|
||||
- Avoid a possible double close of a circuit by the intro point on
|
||||
error of sending the INTRO_ESTABLISHED cell. Fixes bug 23610;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (logging, relay shutdown, annoyance):
|
||||
- When a circuit is marked for close, do not attempt to package any
|
||||
cells for channels on that circuit. Previously, we would detect
|
||||
this condition lower in the call stack, when we noticed that the
|
||||
circuit had no attached channel, and log an annoying message.
|
||||
Fixes bug 8185; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (scheduler):
|
||||
- When switching schedulers due to a consensus change, we didn't
|
||||
give the new scheduler a chance to react to the consensus. Fix
|
||||
that. Fixes bug 23537; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha
|
||||
- Make the KISTSchedRunInterval option a non negative value. With
|
||||
this, the way to disable KIST through the consensus is to set it
|
||||
to 0. Fixes bug 23539; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Only notice log the selected scheduler when we switch scheduler
|
||||
types. Fixes bug 23552; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Avoid a compilation warning on macOS in scheduler_ev_add() caused
|
||||
by a different tv_usec data type. Fixes bug 23575; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Make a hard exit if tor is unable to pick a scheduler which can
|
||||
happen if the user specifies a scheduler type that is not
|
||||
supported and not other types in Schedulers. Fixes bug 23581;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Properly initialize the scheduler last run time counter so it is
|
||||
not 0 at the first tick. Fixes bug 23696; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (testing):
|
||||
- Capture and detect several "Result does not fit" warnings in unit
|
||||
tests on platforms with 32-bit time_t. Fixes bug 21800; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
|
||||
- Fix additional channelpadding unit test failures by using mocked
|
||||
time instead of actual time for all tests. Fixes bug 23608; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
- The removal of some old scheduler options caused some tests to
|
||||
fail on BSD systems. Assume current behavior is correct and make
|
||||
the tests pass again. Fixes bug 23566; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Code simplification and refactoring:
|
||||
- Remove various ways of testing circuits and connections for
|
||||
"clientness"; instead, favor channel_is_client(). Part of
|
||||
ticket 22805.
|
||||
|
||||
o Deprecated features:
|
||||
- The ReachableDirAddresses and ClientPreferIPv6DirPort options are
|
||||
now deprecated; they do not apply to relays, and they have had no
|
||||
effect on clients since 0.2.8.x. Closes ticket 19704.
|
||||
|
||||
o Documentation:
|
||||
- HiddenServiceVersion man page entry wasn't mentioning the now
|
||||
supported version 3. Fixes ticket 23580; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
|
||||
- Clarify that the Address option is entirely about setting an
|
||||
advertised IPv4 address. Closes ticket 18891.
|
||||
- Clarify the manpage's use of the term "address" to clarify what
|
||||
kind of address is intended. Closes ticket 21405.
|
||||
- Document that onion service subdomains are allowed, and ignored.
|
||||
Closes ticket 18736.
