This is a bugfix on 0.2.2.26-beta, because 6b83b3b made directory
authorities remove themselves from the list of directory authorities to
upload to, but didn't suppress the warning in case they're the only
directory authority in the network.
(There is no longer meaningfully any such thing as a HS authority,
since we stopped uploading or downloading v0 hs descriptors in
0.2.2.1-alpha.)
Implements #10881, and part of #10841.
Apparently fedora currently has ECDH but not P224. This isn't a huge
deal, since we no longer use OpenSSL's P224 ever (see #9780 and
72c1e5acfe). But we shouldn't have segfaulting benchmarks really.
Fixes bug 10835; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
Right now this accounts for about 1% of circuits over all, but if you
pick a guard that's running 0.2.3, it will be about 6% of the circuits
running through that guard.
Making sure that every circuit has at least one ntor link means that
we're getting plausibly good forward secrecy on every circuit.
This implements ticket 9777,
It's possible to set your ExitNodes to contains only exits that don't
have the Exit flag. If you do that, we'll decide that 0 of your exits
are working. Instead, in that case we should look at nodes which have
(or which might have) exit policies that don't reject everything.
Fix for bug 10543; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha.
The remaining vestige is that we continue to publish the V2dir flag,
and that, for the controller, we continue to emit v2 directory
formats when requested.
Previously, we would sometimes decide in directory_get_from_hs_dir()
to connect to an excluded node, and then later in
directory_initiate_command_routerstatus_rend() notice that it was
excluded and strictnodes was set, and catch it as a stopgap.
Additionally, this patch preferentially tries to fetch from
non-excluded nodes even when StrictNodes is off.
Fix for bug #10722. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha (the v2 hidserv directory
system was introduced in e136f00ca). Reported by "mr-4".
When I introduced the unusable_for_new_circuits flag in
62fb209d83, I had a spurious ! in the
circuit_stream_is_being_handled loop. This made us decide that
non-unusable circuits (that is, usable ones) were the ones to avoid,
and caused it to launch a bunch of extra circuits.
Fixes bug 10456; bugfix on 0.2.4.12-alpha.
This fixes bug 10402, where the rdrand engine would use the rdrand
instruction, not as an additional entropy source, but as a replacement
for the entire userspace PRNG. That's obviously stupid: even if you
don't think that RDRAND is a likely security risk, the right response
to an alleged new alleged entropy source is never to throw away all
previously used entropy sources.
Thanks to coderman and rl1987 for diagnosing and tracking this down.
