Also add an explanation of a possible future refactoring where we
might remove the config_type_t enumeration entierly.
Fixes ticket 31624.
No changes file, since this is a comment-only change.
Previously we used int here, but it is more correct to use
ptrdiff_t. (This never actually matters for our code in practice,
since the structure we are managing here never exceed INT_MAX in
size.)
We can't use strlcat() or strlcpy() in torerr, because they are defined
in string/compat_string.h on some platforms, and string uses torerr.
Part of 31571.
These errors can occur if we are built on a system with support for
madvise(MADV_NOFORK) but then we are run on a system whose kernel
does not support that flag.
If the error is something that we don't tolerate at all, we now log
it before crashing.
Fixes bug 31570. I am calling this a bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha, where
we actually started using the map_anon code.
Some platforms (macOS, maybe others?) can swallow the last write before an
abort. This issue is probably caused by a race condition between write
buffer cache flushing, and process termination. So we write an extra
newline, to make sure that the message always gets through.
Fixes bug 31571; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
We want to report the tor version, even on platforms that don't have
backtrace support (like Android).
This commit stores the backtrace Tor version, regardless of USE_BACKTRACE.
Preparation for 31571.
If unsigned int is 32-bits long, then our old code would give a
wrong result with any log domain whose mask was >= (1<<32).
Fortunately, there are no such log domains right now: the domain
mask is only 64 bits long to accommodate some flags.
Found by coverity as CID 1452041.
Fixes bug 31451; bugfix on 0.4.1.4-rc.
Overflowing a signed integer in C is an undefined behaviour.
It is possible to trigger this undefined behaviour in tor_asprintf on
Windows or systems lacking vasprintf.
On these systems, eiter _vscprintf or vsnprintf is called to retrieve
the required amount of bytes to hold the string. These functions can
return INT_MAX. The easiest way to recreate this is the use of a
specially crafted configuration file, e.g. containing the line:
FirewallPorts AAAAA<in total 2147483610 As>
This line triggers the needed tor_asprintf call which eventually
leads to an INT_MAX return value from _vscprintf or vsnprintf.
The needed byte for \0 is added to the result, triggering the
overflow and therefore the undefined behaviour.
Casting the value to size_t before addition fixes the behaviour.

When we added LD_MESG, we created a conflict with the LD_NO_MOCK
flag. We now need 64 bits for log domains in order to fix this
issue.
Fixes bug 31080; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha.
When parsing addreses via Tor's internal address:port parsing and
DNS lookup APIs, require IPv6 addresses with ports to have square
brackets.
But allow IPv6 addresses without ports, whether or not they have
square brackets.
Fixes bug 30721; bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.
When parsing addreses via Tor's internal DNS lookup API:
* reject IPv4 addresses in square brackets (with or without a port),
* accept IPv6 addresses in square brackets (with or without a port), and
* accept IPv6 addresses without square brackets, as long as they have no port.
This change completes the work started in 23082, making address parsing
consistent between tor's internal DNS lookup and address parsing APIs.
Fixes bug 30721; bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.
"unsettable" is a property of types. LINELIST_V and OBSOLETE are
unsettable, meaning that they cannot be set by name.
"contained" is a property of types. I'm hoping to find a better
name here. LINELIST_S is "contained" because it always appears
within a LINELIST_V, and as such doesn't need to be dumped ore
copied independently.
"cumulative" is a property of types. Cumulative types can appear
more than once in a torrc without causing a warning, because they
add to each other rather than replacing each other.
"obsolete" is a property of variables.
"marking fragile" is now a command that struct members can accept.
With these changes, confparse and config no longer ever need to
mention CONFIG_TYPE_XYZ values by name.
Right now, this has been done at a high level by confparse.c, but it
makes more sense to lower it.
This API is radically un-typesafe as it stands; we'll be wrapping it
in a safer API as we do #30914 and lower the struct manipulation
code as well.
Closes ticket 30864.
Note that the event base object is _not_ created from the initialize
function, since it is configuration-dependent. This will wait until
configuration is integrated into subsystems.
Closes ticket 30806.

The ordinary definitions of timeradd() and timersub() contain a
branch. However, in coverage builds, this means that we get spurious
complaints about partially covered basic blocks, in a way that makes
our coverage determinism harder to check.
Ordinarily we skip calling log_fn(LOG_DEBUG,...) if debug logging is
completely disabled. However, in coverage builds, this means that
we get spurious complaints about partially covered basic blocks, in
a way that makes our coverage determinism harder to check.
I don't believe any of these represent a real timing vulnerability
(remote timing against memcmp() on a modern CPU is not easy), but
these are the ones where I believe we should be more careful.
For memeq and friends, "tor_" indicates constant-time and "fast_"
indicates optimized. I'm fine with leaving the constant-time
"safe_mem_is_zero" with its current name, but the "tor_" prefix on
the current optimized version is misleading.
Also, make the tor_digest*_is_zero() uniformly constant-time, and
add a fast_digest*_is_zero() version to use as needed.
A later commit in this branch will fix all the users of
tor_mem_is_zero().
Closes ticket 30309.
