For uname-based detection, we now give only the OS name (e.g.,
"Darwin", "Linux".) For Windows, we give only the Operating System
name as inferred from dw(Major|Minor)version, (e.g., "Windows XP",
"Windows 7"), and whether the VER_NT_SERVER flag is set.
For ticket 2988.
This patch changes the total serverdesc threshold from 25% to 75%
and the exit threshold from 33% to 50%. The goal is to make
initially constructed circuits less horrible, and to make initial
less awful (since fetching directory information in parallel with
whatever the user is trying to do can hurt their performance).
Implements ticket 3196.
We were doing an O(n) strlen in router_get_extrainfo_hash() for
every one we tried to parse. Instead, have
router_get_extrainfo_hash() take the length of the extrainfo as an
argument, so that when it's called from
extrainfo_parse_from_string(), it doesn't do a strlen() over the
whole pile of extrainfos.
If the authorities agreed on a sufficiently bad bwweightscale value
(<=0 or == INT32_MAX), the bandwidth algorithm could make the voters
assert while computing the consensus.
Fix for bug5786; bugfix on 0.2.2.17-alpha
The underlying strtoX functions handle overflow by saturating and
setting errno to ERANGE. If the min/max arguments to the
tor_parse_* functions are equal to the minimum/maximum of the
underlying type, then with the old approach, we wouldn't treat a
too-large value as genuinely broken.
Found this while looking at bug 5786; bugfix on 19da1f36 (in Tor
0.0.9), which introduced these functions.
We had been checking for EINVAL, but that means that SOCK_* isn't
supported, not that the syscall itself is missing.
Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha, which started to use accept4.
We'd had our configure.in test include unistd.h unconditionally,
which would fail on Windows/mingw, even though environ _was_
declared there. Fix for 5704; bugfix on 0.2.3.13-alpha.
Thanks to Erinn for finding this and rransom for figuring out the
problem.
If the client uses a v2 cipherlist on the renegotiation handshake,
it looks as if they could fail to get a good cert chain from the
server, since they server would re-disable certificate chaining.
This patch makes it so the code that make the server side of the
first v2 handshake special can get called only once.
Fix for 4591; bugfix on 0.2.0.20-rc.
They boil down to:
- MS_WINDOWS is dead and replaced with _WIN32, but we let a few
instances creep in when we merged Esteban's tests.
- Capitalizing windows header names confuses mingw.
- #ifdef 0 ain't C.
- One unit test wasn't compiled on windows, but was being listed
anyway.
- One unit test was checking for the wrong value.
Gisle Vanem found and fixed the latter 3 issues.
Fixes bug #4528 "read_to_buf_tls(): Inconsistency in code".
This check was added back in 0.1.0.3-rc, but somehow we forgot to
leave it in when we refactored read_to_buf_tls in 0.1.0.5-rc.

Previously, we would reset it at the drop of a hat -- every time a second
passes without any of the intro-point circs already launched for the
service failing.
Fixes bug 4607.
This is just refactoring work here. The old logic was kind of
convoluted, especially after the bug 5572 fix. We don't actually need to
distinguish so many cases here. Dropping detection of the
"!old_options || !old_options->DynamicDHGroups" case is fine because
that's the same that we'd do for clients.
Also add a changes file for bug 5572.
The message only means that we're publishing a new descriptor when we
are actually in some kind of server mode, and publication is on.
Fix for bug 3942; bugfix on 0.2.3.2-alpha.
This fixes a side-channel attack on the (fortunately unused!)
BridgePassword option for bridge authorities. Fix for bug 5543;
bugfix on 0.2.0.14-alpha.
This is ticket 2479. Roger's original explanation was:
We have a series of bugs where relays publish a descriptor within
12 hours of their last descriptor, but the authorities drop it
because it's not different "enough" from the last one and it's
too close to the last one.
The original goal of this idea was to a) reduce the number of new
descriptors authorities accept (and thus have to store) and b)
reduce the total number of descriptors that clients and mirrors
fetch. It's a defense against bugs where relays publish a new
descriptor every minute.
Now that we're putting out one consensus per hour, we're doing
better at the total damage that can be caused by 'b'.
There are broader-scale design changes that would help here, and
we've had a trac entry open for years about how relays should
recognize that they're not in the consensus, or recognize when
their publish failed, and republish sooner.
In the mean time, I think we should change some of the parameters
to make the problem less painful.
When we started RefuseUnknownExits back in 0.2.2.11-alpha, we
started making exits act like they cache directory info (since they
need an up-to-date idea of who is really a router). But this
included fetching needless (unrecognized) authorities' certs, which
doesn't make any sense for them.
This is related to, but not necessarily the same as, the issue that
Ian reported for bug #2297.
(This patch is based on a patch from a user who I believe has asked
not to be named. If I'm wrong about that, please add the
appropriate name onto the changelog.)

Nick here. I tweaked this patch a little to make it apply cleanly to
master, to extract some common code into a function, and to replace
snprintf with tor_snprintf.

Specifically, it was a fix on 33e2053ebc, where we introduced the
WRA_* and ROUTER_* codes for dirserv_add_descriptor. Previously, we
had checked for a _negative_ return from dirserv_add_descriptor, which
meant "rejected". An insufficiently new descriptor would give a
0-valued return. But when we switched from numbers to enums, we got
this check wrong and had init_keys() give an error whenever the
descriptor wasn't accepted.
