This fixes bug 1147:
bionic doesn't have an actual implementation of mlockall();
mlockall() is merely in the headers but not actually in the library.
This prevents Tor compilation with the bionic libc for Android handsets.
This commit implements a new config option: 'DisableAllSwap'
This option probably only works properly when Tor is started as root.
We added two new functions: tor_mlockall() and tor_set_max_memlock().
tor_mlockall() attempts to mlock() all current and all future memory pages.
For tor_mlockall() to work properly we set the process rlimits for memory to
RLIM_INFINITY (and beyond) inside of tor_set_max_memlock().
We behave differently from mlockall() by only allowing tor_mlockall() to be
called one single time. All other calls will result in a return code of 1.
It is not possible to change DisableAllSwap while running.
A sample configuration item was added to the torrc.complete.in config file.
A new item in the man page for DisableAllSwap was added.
Thanks to Moxie Marlinspike and Chris Palmer for their feedback on this patch.
Please note that we make no guarantees about the quality of your OS and its
mlock/mlockall implementation. It is possible that this will do nothing at all.
It is also possible that you can ulimit the mlock properties of a given user
such that root is not required. This has not been extensively tested and is
unsupported. I have included some comments for possible ways we can handle
this on win32.
I don't think we actually use (or plan to use) strtok_r in a reentrant
way anywhere in our code, but would be nice not to have to think about
whether we're doing it.
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".
This matters because a cpuworker can close its socket when it
finishes. Cpuworker typically runs in another thread, so without a
lock here, we can have a race condition and get confused about how
many sockets are open. Possible fix for bug 939.
It seems that 64-bit Sparc Solaris demands 64-bit-aligned access to
uint64_t, but does not 64-bit-align the stack-allocated char array we
use for cpuworker tags. So this patch adds a set/get_uint64 pair, and
uses them to access the conn_id field in the tag.

The subversion $Id$ fields made every commit force a rebuild of
whatever file got committed. They were not actually useful for
telling the version of Tor files in the wild.

Make definition of tor_mutex_t go into compat.h, so that it is possible to inline mutexes in critical objects. Add init/uninit functions for mutexes allocated inside other structs.

Make generic address manipulation functions work better. Switch address policy code to use tor_addr_t, so it can handle IPv6. That is a good place to start.

Forward-port: I had apparently broken OSX and Freebsd by not initializing threading before we initialize the logging system. This patch should do so, and fix bug 671.

On platforms using pthreads, allow a thread to acquire a lock it already holds. This is crucial for logging: otherwise any log message thrown from inside the logging process (especially from control.c) will deadlock. Win32 CriticalSections are already recursive. Bug spotted by nwf. Bugfix on 0.2.0.16-alpha. Backport candidate. I hope this is portable.
