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.
The Autoconf macro AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS defines preprocessor macros
which turn on extensions to C and POSIX. The macro also makes it easier
for developers to use the extensions without needing (or forgetting) to
define them manually.
The macro can be safely used because it was introduced in Autoconf 2.60
and Tor requires Autoconf 2.63 and above.
This is a big-ish patch, but it's very straightforward. Under this
clang warning, we're not actually allowed to have a global variable
without a previous extern declaration for it. The cases where we
violated this rule fall into three roughly equal groups:
* Stuff that should have been static.
* Stuff that was global but where the extern was local to some
other C file.
* Stuff that was only global when built for the unit tests, that
needed a conditional extern in the headers.
The first two were IMO genuine problems; the last is a wart of how
we build tests.
This warning triggers on silently promoting a float to a double. In
our code, it's just a sign that somebody used a float by mistake,
since we always prefer double.
This warning, IIUC, means that the compiler doesn't like it when it
sees a NULL check _after_ we've already dereferenced the
variable. In such cases, it considers itself free to eliminate the
NULL check.
There are a couple of tricky cases:
One was the case related to the fact that tor_addr_to_in6() can
return NULL if it gets a non-AF_INET6 address. The fix was to
create a variant which asserts on the address type, and never
returns NULL.
Remove support for "GET /tor/bytes.txt" DirPort request, and
"GETINFO dir-usage" controller request, which were only available
via a compile-time option in Tor anyway.
Feature was added in 0.2.2.1-alpha. Resolves ticket 19035.
Previously, if the header was present, we'd proceed even if the
function wasn't there.
Easy fix for bug 19161. A better fix would involve trying harder to
find libscrypt_scrypt.
We use a pretty specific pair of autoconf tests here to make sure
that we only add this code when:
a) a 64-bit signed multiply fails to link,
AND
b) the same 64-bit signed multiply DOES link correctly when
__mulodi4 is defined.
Closes ticket 19079.
Previously we'd only check whether the hardening options succeeded
at the compile step. Now we'll try to link with them too, and tell
the user in advance if something seems likely to go wrong.
Closes ticket 18895.
We know there are overflows in curve25519-donna-c32, so we'll have
to have that one be fwrapv.
Only apply the asan, ubsan, and trapv options to the code that does
not need to run in constant time. Those options introduce branches
to the code they instrument.
(These introduced branches should never actually be taken, so it
might _still_ be constant time after all, but branch predictors are
complicated enough that I'm not really confident here. Let's aim for
safety.)
Closes 17983.
This makes our compilation options checks in autoconf work better on
systems that already define _FORTIFY_SOURCE.
Fixes at least one case of bug 18841; bugfix on 0.2.3.17-beta. Patch
from "trudokal".
We added these a while ago, but they do no actual good, and
cause implicit declaration warnings in some situations. Rather than
just adding stdint.h, it's easier to remove the exit() calls
as redundant.
Fixes bug 18626; bugfix from "cypherpunks"
CentOS 6 is roughly the oldest thing we care about developers still
using, and it has autoconf 2.63 / automake 1.11. These are both
older than openssl 1.0.0, so anybody who can't upgrade past those
probably can't upgrade to a modern openssl either. And since only
people building from git or editing configure.ac/Makefile.am need to
use autotools, I'm not totally enthused about keeping support for
old ones anyway.
Closes ticket 17732.
Closes ticket 18242.
The rationale here is that I like having coverage on by default in my
own working directory, but I always want assertions turned on unless
I'm doing branch coverage specifically.
We've never actually tested this support, and we should probably assume
it's broken.
To the best of my knowledge, only OpenVMS has this, and even on
OpenVMS it's a compile-time option to disable it. And I don't think
we build on openvms anyway. (Everybody else seems to be working
around the 2038 problem by using a 64-bit time_t, which won't expire
for roughly 292 billion years.)
Closes ticket 18184.
Use environment variables instead. This repairs 'make distcheck',
which was running into trouble when it tried to chmod the generated
scripts.
Fixes 17148.
This allows builds on machines with a crippled openssl to fail early
during configure. Bugfix on 0.2.7.1-alpha, which introduced the
requirement for ECC support. Fixes bug 17109.
