@ -11,16 +11,89 @@ Changes in version 0.2.3.8-alpha - 2011-11-??
0.2.3.x no longer uses v0 HS descriptors, but this assertion can
trigger on (and crash) v0 HS authorities. Fixes bug 4411.
Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha; diagnosed by frosty_un.
- Don't crash when we, as the bridge authority, are asked for our own
- Make bridge authorities not crash when they are asked for their own
descriptor. Bugfix on 0.2.3.7-alpha, reported by Lucky Green.
o Minor bugfixes:
o Major features:
- Allow Tor controllers like Vidalia to obtain the microdescriptor
for a relay by identity digest or nickname. Previously,
microdescriptors were only available by their own digests, so a
controller would have to ask for and parse the whole microdescriptor
consensus in order to look up a single relay's microdesc. Fixes
bug 3832; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
- Use OpenSSL's EVP interface for AES encryption, so that all AES
operations can use hardware acceleration (if present). Resolves
ticket 4442.
o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.2.x and earlier):
- Fix a memory leak when we check whether a hidden service
descriptor has any usable introduction points left. Fixes bug
4424. Bugfix on 0.2.2.25-alpha.
- Fix a memory leak in launch_direct_bridge_descriptor_fetch() that
occurred when a client tried to fetch a descriptor for a bridge
in ExcludeNodes. Fixes #4383; bugfix on 0.2.2.25-alpha.
- Allow manual 'authenticate' commands to the controller interface
from netcat (nc) as well as telnet. We were rejecting them because
they didn't come with the expected whitespace at the end of the
command. Bugfix on 0.1.1.1-alpha; fixes bug 2893.
- When sending a NETINFO cell, include the original address
received for the other side, not its canonical address. Found
by "troll_un"; fixes bug 4349; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.
- When running as a client without a geoip database, do not print a
misleading (and plain wrong) log message that we're collecting
dirreq statistics - we're not collecting statistics as clients.
Also don't create a useless (because empty) stats file in the stats/
directory. Fixes bug 4353; bugfix on 0.2.2.34 / 0.2.3.7-alpha.
- Fix some (not actually triggerable) buffer size checks in usage of
tor_inet_ntop. Fixes bug 4434; bugfix on Tor 0.2.0.1-alpha. Patch
by Anders Sundman.
- Don't warn about unused log_mutex in log.c when building with
--disable-threads using a recent GCC. Fixes bug 4437; bugfix on
0.1.0.6-rc which introduced --disable-threads.
- Initialize Libevent with the EVENT_BASE_FLAG_NOLOCK flag enabled, so
that it doesn't attempt to allocate a socketpair. This could cause
some problems on windows systems with overzealous firewalls. Fix for
bug 4457; workaround for Libevent versions 2.0.1-alpha through
2.0.15-stable.
- Detect failure to initialize Libevent. Better detection for
bug 4457.
- Fix parsing of some corner-cases with tor_inet_pton. Fixes bug 4515;
bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha; fix by Anders Sundman.
- Rename the bench_{aes,dmap} functions to test_*, so that tinytest
can pick them up when the tests aren't disabled. Bugfix on
0.2.2.4-alpha which introduced tinytest.
o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.3.x):
- Successfully detect AUTH_CHALLENGE cells with no recognized
authentication type listed. Fixes bug 4367; bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
Found by frosty_un.
- If a relay receives an AUTH_CHALLENGE it can't answer, it should
still send a NETINFO cell to allow the connection to become open.
Fixes bug 4368; fix on 0.2.3.6-alpha; bug found by "frosty".
- Log less loudly when we get an invalid certificate from a source
other than a directory authority: it's not unusual to see
invalid certs because of clock skew. Fixes bug 4370; bugfix on
0.2.3.6-alpha.
- Tolerate servers with more clock skew than previously. Fixes
bug 4371; bugfix on 0.2.3.6-alpha.
- Fix a couple of compile warnings on Windows. Fixes bug 4469; bugfix
on 0.2.3.4-alpha and 0.2.3.6-alpha.
- Make util unit tests build correctly with MSVC. Bugfix on
0.2.3.3-alpha. Patch by Gisle Vanem.
o Minor features:
- When Tor ignores a hidden service specified in its configuration,
include the hidden service's directory in the warning message.
Previously, we would only tell the user that some hidden service
was ignored. Bugfix on 0.0.6; fixes bug 4426.
- When we fail to initialize Libevent, retry with IOCP disabled so we
don't need to turn on multi-threading support in Libevent, which in
turn requires a working socketpair(). This is a workaround for bug
4457, which affects Libevent versions from 2.0.1-alpha through
2.0.15-stable.
- Detect when we build on a platform that doesn't define AF_UNSPEC
to 0. We don't work there, so refuse to compile.
- Update to the November 1 2011 Maxmind GeoLite Country database.
o Packaging changes:
- Make it easier to automate expert package builds on Windows
@ -29,6 +102,18 @@ Changes in version 0.2.3.8-alpha - 2011-11-??
o Code simplifications and refactoring:
- Remove some redundant #include directives throughout the code.
Patch from Andrea Gelmini.
- Unconditionally use OpenSSL's AES implementation instead of our
old built-in one. OpenSSL's AES has been better for a while, and
relatively few servers should still be on any version of OpenSSL
that doesn't have good optimized assembly AES.
o Testing:
- Numerous new unit tests for functions in util.c and address.c by
Anders Sundman.
- The long-disabled benchmark tests are now split into their own
./src/test/bench binary.
- The benchmark tests can now use more accurate timers than
gettimeofday when such timers are available.
