The nodelist_idx for each node_t serves as a unique identifier for
the node, so we can use a bitarray to hold all the excluded
nodes, and then remove them from the smartlist.
Previously use used smartlist_subtract(sl, excluded), which is
O(len(sl)*len(excluded)).
We can use this function in other places too, but this is the one
that showed up on the profiles of 30291.
Closes ticket 30307.
This command does not fit perfectly with the others, since its
second argument is optional and may contain equal signs. Still,
it's probably better to squeeze it into the new metaformat, since
doing so allows us to remove several pieces of the old
command-parsing machinery.
The two options are mutually exclusive, since otherwise an entry
like "Foo" would be ambiguous. We want to have the ability to treat
entries like this as keys, though, since some controller commands
interpret them as flags.
(This should be all of the command that work nicely with positional
arguments only.)
Some of these commands should probably treat extra arguments as
incorrect, but for now I'm trying to be careful not to break
any existing users.
The first line break in particular was mishandled: it was discarded
if no arguments came before it, which made it impossible to
distinguish arguments from the first line of the body.
To solve this, we need to allocate a copy of the command rather than
using NUL to separate it, since we might have "COMMAND\n" as our input.
Fixes ticket 29984.
There _is_ an underlying logic to these commands, but it isn't
wholly uniform, given years of tweaks and changes. Fortunately I
think there is a superset that will work.
This commit adds a parser for some of the most basic cases -- the
ones currently handled by getargs_helper() and some of the
object-taking ones. Soon will come initial tests; then I'll start using
the parser.
After that, I'll expand the parser to handle the other cases that come
up in the controller protocol.
We have checks in various places in mainlook.c to make sure that
events are initialized before we invoke any periodic_foo() functions
on them. But now that each subsystem will own its own periodic
events, it will be cleaner if we don't assume that they are all
setup or not.
The end goal here is to move the periodic callback to their
respective modules, so that mainloop.c doesn't have to include so
many other things.
This patch doesn't actually move any of the callbacks out of
mainloop.c yet.
In this patch we lower the log level of the failures for the three calls
to unlink() in networkstatus_set_current_consensus(). These errors might
trigger on Windows because the memory mapped consensus file keeps the
file in open state even after we have close()'d it. Windows will then
error on the unlink() call with a "Permission denied" error.
The consequences of ignoring these errors is that we leave an unused
file around on the file-system, which is an easier way to fix this
problem right now than refactoring networkstatus_set_current_consensus().
