Increase the fallback stability requirement to 30 days.
When this was at 7 days, we chose far too many unstable fallbacks.
Decrease the guard flag requirement to 0.8.
When this was at 0.9, we lost too many fallbacks due to version upgrades.
(The running and v2dir flags ensure DirPorts are available to clients.)
Partial fixes to #20913.
Found using flake8 which gave the following output;
lintChanges.py:10:13: E225 missing whitespace around operator
lintChanges.py:25:1: E302 expected 2 blank lines, found 1
lintChanges.py:46:5: F841 local variable 'lines' is assigned to but never used
lintChanges.py:52:32: E228 missing whitespace around modulo operator
lintChanges.py:53:11: E201 whitespace after '('
lintChanges.py:56:41: E228 missing whitespace around modulo operator
Part of ticket 21096.
Sometimes, the fallback generation script doesn't add attributes to the
fallbacks in the list. If this happens, log an error, and avoid selecting
that fallback.
This is a rare issue: it should not change selection behaviour.
Fixes issue #20945.
Exclude relays that have been down for 1 or more days from the fallback
candidate list.
When a relay operator has multiple relays, this prioritises relays that are
up over relays that are down.
Fixes issue #20926.
7 days is a tradeoff between the expected time between major Tor releases,
which is 6 months, and the number of relays with enough stability.
Relays whose OnionOO stability timer is reset on restart by bug #18050
should upgrade to Tor 0.2.8.7 or later, which has a fix for this issue.
Closes ticket #20880; maintains short-term fix in e220214 in tor-0.2.8.2-alpha.
The functions it warns about are:
assert, memcmp, strcat, strcpy, sprintf, malloc, free, realloc,
strdup, strndup, calloc.
Also, fix a few lingering instances of these in the code. Use other
conventions to indicate _intended_ use of assert and
malloc/realloc/etc.
Only some very ancient distributions don't ship with Libevent 2 anymore,
even the oldest supported Ubuntu LTS version has it. This allows us to
get rid of a lot of compat code.
If we manually remove fallbacks in C by adding '/*' and '*/' on separate
lines, stem still parses them as being present, because it only looks at
the start of a line.
Add a comment to this effect in the generated source code.
