doc/HACKING/GettingStarted.md says "you might like reading doc/HACKING",
which the reader obviously is already doing. Instead point to the "torguts"
documents that are mentioned a few lines below too.
But when clients are just starting, make them try each bridge a few times
before giving up on it.
These changes make the bridge download schedules more explicit: before
17750, they relied on undocumented behaviour and specific schedule
entries. (And between 17750 and this fix, they were broken.)
Fixes 23347, not in any released version of tor.
The download schedule tells Tor to wait 15 minutes before downloading
bridge descriptors. But 17750 made Tor ignore that and start immediately.
Since we fixed 17750, Tor waits 15 minutes for bridge client bootstrap,
like the schedule says.
This fixes the download schedule to start immediately, and to try each
bridge 3 times in the first 30 seconds. This should make bridge bootstraps
more reliable.
Fixes 23347.
Undeprecate it;
rename it to TestingClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses;
add the old name as an alias;
reject configurations where it is set but TestingTorNetwork is not;
change the documentation accordingly.
Closes tickets 21031 and 21522.
We removed this documentation in 607724c696, when we removed
Naming Authoritative Directories, but actually this file is still
used by authorities to indicate rejected and invalid fingerprints.
Closes ticket 21148.
Relay operators (especially bridge operators) can use this to lower
or raise the number of consensuses that they're willing to hold for
diff generation purposes.
This enables a workaround for bug 22883.
Move the HTTPProxy option to the deprecated list so for now it will only warn
users but feature is still in the code which will be removed in a future
stable version.

I went into this to fix 6892 and say "we don't do anything for
circuit isolation." But instead I did a fair amount of text-removal
to stop implying that torify does anything more than call torsocks.
config_get_lines is now split into two functions:
- config_get_lines which is the same as before we had %include
- config_get_lines_include which actually processes %include

This unifies CircuitIdleTimeout and PredictedCircsRelevanceTime into a single
option, and randomizes it.
It also gives us control over the default value as well as relay-to-relay
connection lifespan through the consensus.

This defense will cause Cisco, Juniper, Fortinet, and other routers operating
in the default configuration to collapse netflow records that would normally
be split due to the 15 second flow idle timeout.
Collapsing these records should greatly reduce the utility of default netflow
data for correlation attacks, since all client-side records should become 30
minute chunks of total bytes sent/received, rather than creating multiple
separate records for every webpage load/ssh command interaction/XMPP chat/whatever
else happens to be inactive for more than 15 seconds.
The defense adds consensus parameters to govern the range of timeout values
for sending padding packets, as well as for keeping connections open.
The defense only sends padding when connections are otherwise inactive, and it
does not pad connections used solely for directory traffic at all. By default
it also doesn't pad inter-relay connections.
Statistics on the total padding in the last 24 hours are exported to the
extra-info descriptors.
Bridge lines in torrc can contain key=value settings as per-connection
arguments to a pluggable transport. tor.1.txt hadn't been updated to
reflect this.
This commit adds the src/trace directory containing the basics for our tracing
subsystem. It is not used in the code base. The "src/trace/debug.h" file
contains an example on how we can map our tor trace events to log_debug().
The tracing subsystem can only be enabled by tracing framework at compile
time. This commit introduces the "--enable-tracing-debug" option that will
make all "tor_trace()" function be maped to "log_debug()".

In an effort to better communicate with our users that they might need
to take certain actions when upgrading, we should extract from the
changelog the items that require some action (example: the new version
automatically generates keys, if you want them to be offline - make sure
to create them before upgrading).
