Some controllers want this so they can mess with Tor's configuration
for a while via the control port before actually letting Tor out of
the house.
We do this with a new DisableNetwork option, that prevents Tor from
making any outbound connections or binding any non-control
listeners. Additionally, it shuts down the same functionality as
shuts down when we are hibernating, plus the code that launches
directory downloads.
To make sure I didn't miss anything, I added a clause straight to
connection_connect, so that we won't even try to open an outbound
socket when the network is disabled. In my testing, I made this an
assert, but since I probably missed something, I've turned it into a
BUG warning for testing.
This will mainly help distributors by giving a way to set system or package
defaults that a user can override, and that a later package can replace.
No promises about the particular future location or semantics for this:
we will probably want to tweak it some before 0.2.3.x-rc
The file is searched for in CONFDIR/torrc-defaults , which can be
overridden with the "--defaults-torrc" option on the command line.
This starts an effort to refactor torrc handling code to make it easier
to live with. It makes it possible to override exit policies from the
command line, and possible to override (rather than append to) socksport
lists from the command line.
It'll be necessary to make a "base" torrc implementation work at all.
This shaves about 7% off our per-cell AES crypto time for me; the
effect for accelerated AES crypto should be even more, since the AES
calculation itself will make an even smaller portion of the
counter-mode performance.
(We don't want to do this for pre-1.0.0 OpenSSL, since our AES_CTR
implementation was actually faster than OpenSSL's there, by about
10%.)
Fixes issue #4526.
The timercmp macro uses triggers a "space between function name and
opening parentheses" warning for the check spaces script. Work around
this by simply disabling the check for all "functions" named 'op()'.
The function is over 10 or 20% on some of Moritz's profiles, depending
on how you could.
Since it's checking for a multi-hour timeout, this is safe to do.
Fixes bug 4518.
Completely disable stats if we aren't running as a relay. We won't
collect any anyway, so setting up the infrastructure for them and
logging about them is wrong. This also removes a confusing log
message that clients without a geoip db would have seen.
Fixes bug 4353.
