Specifically, every time we get a create cell but we have so many already
queued that we refuse it.
Bugfix on 0.2.0.19-alpha; fixes bug 1034. Reported by BarkerJr.
The problem is that clients and hidden services are receiving
relay_early cells, and they tear down the circuit.
Hack #1 is for rendezvous points to rewrite relay_early cells to
relay cells. That way there are never any incoming relay_early cells.
Hack #2 is for clients and hidden services to never send a relay_early
cell on an established rendezvous circuit. That works around rendezvous
points that haven't upgraded yet.
Hack #3 is for clients and hidden services to not tear down the circuit
when they receive an inbound relay_early cell. We already refuse extend
cells at clients.
When determining how long directory requests take or how long cells spend
in queues, we were comparing timestamps on microsecond detail only to
convert results to second or millisecond detail later on. But on 32-bit
architectures this means that 2^31 microseconds only cover time
differences of up to 36 minutes. Instead, compare timestamps on
millisecond detail.
Now that we require EntryStatistics to be 1 for counting connecting
clients, unit tests need to set that config option, too.
Reported by Sebastian Hahn.
Changes to directory request statistics:
- Rename GEOIP statistics to DIRREQ statistics, because they now include
more than only GeoIP-based statistics, whereas other statistics are
GeoIP-dependent, too.
- Rename output file from geoip-stats to dirreq-stats.
- Add new config option DirReqStatistics that is required to measure
directory request statistics.
- Clean up ChangeLog.
Also ensure that entry guards statistics have access to a local GeoIP
database.
This new option will allow clients to download the newest fresh consensus
much sooner than they normally would do so, even if they previously set
FetchDirInfoEarly. This includes a proper ChangeLog entry and an updated man
page.
Introduce a threshold of 0.01% of bytes that must be read and written per
port in order to be included in the statistics. Otherwise we cannot include
these statistics in extra-info documents, because they are too big.
Change the labels "-written" and "-read" so that the meanings are as
intended.
The internal error "could not find intro key" occurs when we want to send
an INTRODUCE1 cell over a recently finished introduction circuit and think
we built the introduction circuit with a v2 hidden service descriptor, but
cannot find the introduction key in our descriptor.
My first guess how we can end up in this situation is that we are wrong in
thinking that we built the introduction circuit based on a v2 hidden
service descriptor. This patch checks if we have a v0 descriptor, too, and
uses that instead.
o Minor features:
- If we're a relay and we change our IP address, be more verbose
about the reason that made us change. Should help track down
further bugs for relays on dynamic IP addresses.
when we write out our stability info, detect relays that have slipped
through the cracks. log about them and correct the problem.
if we continue to see a lot of these over time, it means there's another
spot where relays fall out of the routerlist without being marked as
unreachable.
Marks the control port connection for flushing before closing when
the QUIT command is issued. This allows a QUIT to be issued during
a long reply over the control port, flushing the reply and then
closing the connection. Fixes bug 1015.
rather than the bandwidth values in each relay descriptor. This approach
opens the door to more accurate bandwidth estimates once the directory
authorities start doing active measurements. Implements more of proposal
141.
arma's rationale: "I think this is a bug, since people intentionally
set DirPortFrontPage, so they really do want their relay to serve that
page when it's asked for. Having it appear only sometimes (or roughly
never in Sebastian's case) makes it way less useful."
Fixes bug 1013; bugfix on 0.2.1.8-alpha.
Added a sanity check in config.c and a check in directory.c
directory_initiate_command_rend() to catch any direct connection attempts
when a socks proxy is configured.
The rest of the code was only including event.h so that it could see
EV_READ and EV_WRITE, which we were using as part of the
connection_watch_events interface for no very good reason.
This patch adds a new compat_libevent.[ch] set of files, and moves our
Libevent compatibility and utilitity functions there. We build them
into a separate .a so that nothing else in src/commmon depends on
Libevent (partially fixing bug 507).
Also, do not use our own built-in evdns copy when we have Libevent
2.0, whose evdns is finally good enough (thus fixing Bug 920).
Fix an edge case where a malicious exit relay could convince a
controller that the client's DNS question resolves to an internal IP
address. Bug found and fixed by "optimist"; bugfix on 0.1.2.8-beta.

Hidden service clients didn't use a cached service descriptor that
was older than 15 minutes, but wouldn't fetch a new one either. Now,
use a cached descriptor no matter how old it is and only fetch a new
one when all introduction points fail. Fix for bug 997. Patch from
Marcus Griep.
Apparently all the stuff that does a linear scan over all the DNS
cache entries can get really expensive when your DNS cache is very
large. It's hard to say how much this will help performance, since
gprof doesn't count time spent in OpenSSL or zlib, but I'd guess 10%.
Also, this patch removes calls to assert_connection_ok() from inside
the read and write callbacks, which are similarly unneeded, and a
little costlier than I'm happy with.
This is probably worth backporting to 0.2.0.
Provide a useful warning when launch_circuit tries to make us use a
node we don't want to use. Just give an info message when this is a
normal and okay situation. Fix for logging issues in bug 984.
This patch adds a function to determine whether we're in the main
thread, and changes control_event_logmsg() to return immediately if
we're in a subthread. This is necessary because otherwise we will
call connection_write_to_buf, which modifies non-locked data
structures.
Bugfix on 0.2.0.x; fix for at least one of the things currently
called "bug 977".
Tas (thanks!) noticed that when *ListenAddress is set, Tor would
still warn on startup when *Port is low and hibernation is active.
The patch parses all the *ListenAddress lines, and checks the
ports. Bugfix on 0.2.1.15-rc
With the last fix of task 932 (5f03d6c), client requests are only added to
the history when they happen after the start of the current history. This
conflicts with the unit tests that insert current requests first (defining
the start of the client request history) followed by requests in the past.
The fix is to insert requests in chronological order in the unit tests.
- Write geoip stats to disk every 24 hours, not every hour.
- Remove configuration options and define reasonable defaults.
- Clear history of client requests every 24 hours (which wasn't done at
all before).
