Right now we only force a new descriptor upload every 18 hours.
This can make servers become unlisted if they upload a descriptor at
time T which the authorities reject as being "too similar" to one
they uploaded before. Nothing will actually make the server upload a
new descriptor later on, until another 18 hours have passed.
This patch changes the upload behavior so that the 18 hour interval
applies only when we're listed in a live consensus with a descriptor
published within the last 18 hours. Otherwise--if we're not listed
in the live consensus, or if we're listed with a publication time
over 18 hours in the past--we upload a new descriptor every 90
minutes.
This is an attempted bugfix for #3327. If we merge it, it should
obsolete #535.
For some reason, autoconf doesn't by default have an "AC_PROG_AR" for
this -- possibly it's assumed that any "ar" you have will work
everyplace.
Fixes bug 3909; found by sid77.
This fixes a build issue first present in fdbdb4dc15, but the bug
(of not using a correct ar) has been in every Tor version ever: it
just didn't matter until then.
Add a "default" state which we use until we've decided whether we're
live or hibernating. This allows us to properly track whether we're
resuming a hibernation period or not. Fixes bug 2003.
For bufferevents, we had all of connection_buckets_decrement() stubbed
out. But that's not actually right! The rephist_* parts were
essential for, inter alia, recording our own bandwidth. This patch
splits out the rephist parts of connection_buckets_decrement() into their
own function, and makes the bufferevent code call that new function.
Fixes bug 3803, and probably 3824 and 3826 too. Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Previously, if you were set up to use microdescriptors, and you
weren't a cache, you'd never fetch router descriptors (except for
bridges). Now FetchUselessDescriptors causes descriptors and
mirodescs to get cached. Also, FetchUselessDescriptors changes the
behavior of "UseMicrodescriptors auto" to be off, since there's no
point in saying "UseMicrodescriptors 1" when you have full descriptors
too.
Fix for bug 3851; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Because tunneled connections are implemented with buffervent_pair,
writing to them can cause an immediate flush. This means that
added to them and then checking to see whether their outbuf is
empty is _not_ an adequate way to see whether you added anything.
This caused a problem in directory server connections, since they
would try spooling a little more data out, and then close the
connection if there was no queued data to send.
This fix should improve matters; it only closes the connection if
there is no more data to spool, and all of the spooling callbacks
are supposed to put the dirconn into dir_spool_none on completion.
This is bug 3814; Sebastian found it; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
When we're doing filtering ssl bufferevents, we want the rate-limits
to apply to the lowest level of the bufferevent stack, so that we're
actually limiting bytes sent on the network. Otherwise, we'll read
from the network aggressively, and only limit stuff as we process it.
Also remove a few other related warnings that could occur during the ssl
handshake. We do this because the relay operator can't do anything about
them, and they aren't their fault.
Starting with Lion, Apple decided to deprecate the system openssl. We
can start requiring users to install their own openssl once OS X doesn't
ship with it anymore.
Right now, we append statistics to files in the stats/ directory for
half of the statistics, whereas we overwrite these files for the other
half. In particular, we append buffer, dirreq, and entry stats and
overwrite exit, connection, and bridge stats.
Appending to files was useful when we didn't include stats in extra-info
descriptors, because otherwise we'd have to copy them away to prevent
Tor from overwriting them.
But now that we include statistics in extra-info descriptors, it makes
no sense to keep the old statistics forever. We should change the
behavior to overwriting instead of appending for all statistics.
Implements #2930.
We'll still need to tweak it so that it looks for includes and
libraries somewhere more sensible than "where we happened to find
them on Erinn's system"; so that tests and tools get built too;
so that it's a bit documented; and so that we actually try running
the output.
Work done with Erinn Clark.
Previously, if tor_addr_to_str() returned NULL, we would reuse the
last value returned by fmt_addr(). (This could happen if we were
erroneously asked to format an AF_UNSPEC address.) Now instead we
return "???".
The problem was that we weren't initializing want_length to 0 before
calling parse_socks() the first time, so it looked like we were
risking an infinite loop when in fact we were safe.
Fixes 3615; bugfix on 0.2.3.2-alpha.
This is the meat of proposal 171: we change circuit_is_acceptable()
to require that the connection is compatible with every connection
that has been linked to the circuit; we update circuit_is_better to
prefer attaching streams to circuits in the way that decreases the
circuits' usefulness the least; and we update link_apconn_to_circ()
to do the appropriate bookkeeping.
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.
Previously we were using router_get_by_id(foo) to test "do we have a
descriptor that will let us make an anonymous circuit to foo". But
that isn't right for microdescs: we should have been using node_t.
Fixes bug 3601; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Previously, we had an issue where we'd treat an unknown address as
0, which turned into "0.0.0.0", which looked like a rejected
address. This meant in practice that as soon as we started doing
comparisons of unknown uint32 addresses to short policies, we'd get
'rejected' right away. Because of the circumstances under which
this would be called, it would only happen when we had local DNS
cached entries and we were looking to launch new circuits.
Previously, we'd just take all the nodes in EntryNodes, see which
ones were already in the guard list, and add the ones that weren't.
There were some problems there, though:
* We'd add _every_ entry in EntryNodes, and add them in the order
they appeared in the routerlist. This wasn't a problem
until we added the ability to give country-code or IP-range
entries in the EntryNodes set, but now that we did, it is.
(Fix: We now shuffle the entry nodes before adding them; only
add up to 10*NumEntryGuards)
* We didn't screen EntryNodes for the Guard flag. That's okay
if the user has specified two or three entry nodes manually,
but if they have listed a whole subcontinent, we should
restrict ourselves to the entries that are currently guards.
(Fix: separate out the new guard from the new non-guard nodes,
and add the Guards first.)
* We'd prepend new EntryNodes _before_ the already configured
EntryNodes. This could lead to churn.
(Fix: don't prepend these.)
This patch also pre-screens EntryNodes entries for
reachableaddresses/excludenodes, even though we check for that
later. This is important now, since we cap the number of entries
we'll add.
Just looking at the "latest" consensus could give us a microdesc
consensus, if microdescs were enabled. That would make us decide
that every routerdesc was unlisted in the latest consensus and drop
them all: Ouch.
Fixes bug 3113; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
