This addresses issue #40800 and a couple other problems I noticed while
trying to reproduce that one.
The original issue is just a missing cast to void* on the args of
__builtin___clear_cache(), and clang is picky about the implicit cast
between what it considers to be char of different signedness. Original
report is from MacOS but it's also reproducible on other clang targets.
The cmake-based original build system for equix and hashx was a handy
way to run tests, but it suffered from some warnings due to incorrect
application of include_directories().
And lastly, there were some return codes from hashx_exec() that get
ignored on equix when asserts are disabled. It bugged me too much to
just silence this with a (void) cast, since even though this is in the
realm of low-likelyhood programming errors and not true runtime errors, I
don't want to make it easy for the hashx_exec() wrappers to return
values that are dangerously wrong if an error is ignored. I made sure
that even if asserts are disabled, we return values that will cause the
solver and verifier to both fail to validate a potential solution.

This is a change intended for 0.4.7 maintenance as well as main.
The CI builds use Debian Buster which is now end of life, and I was
experiencing inconsistent CI failures with accessing its security update
server. I wanted to update CI to a distro that isn't EOL, and Bullseye
is the current stable release of Debian.
This opened up a small can of worms that this commit also deals with.
In particular there's a docker engine bug that we work around by
removing the docker-specific apt cleanup script if it exists, and
there's a new incompatibility between tracing and sandbox support.
The tracing/sandbox incompatibility itself had two parts:
- The membarrier() syscall is used to deliver inter-processor
synchronization events, and the external "userspace-rcu"
data structure library would make assumptions that if membarrier
is available at initialization it always will be. This caused
segfaults in some cases when running trace + sandbox. Resolved this
by allowing membarrier entirely, in the sandbox.
- userspace-rcu also assumes it can block signals, and fails
hard if this can't be done. We already include a similar carveout
to allow this in the sandbox for fragile-hardening, so I extended
that to cover tracing as well.

This change adapts the hs_pow layer and unit tests to API changes
in hashx and equix which modify the fault recovery responsibilities
and reporting behaivor.
This and the corresponding implementation changes in hashx and equix
form the fix for #40794, both solving the segfault and giving hashx a
way to report those failures up the call chain without them being
mistaken for a different error (unusable seed) that would warrant a
retry.
To handle these new late compiler failures with a minimum of fuss or
inefficiency, the failover is delegated to the internals of hashx and
tor needs only pass in a EQUIX_CTX_TRY_COMPILE flag to get the behavior
that tor was previously responsible for implementing.

This change adapts Equi-X to the corresponding HashX API changes that
added HASHX_TRY_COMPILE. The new regularized HashX return codes are

Both solve and verify operations now return an error/success code, and a
new equix_solutions_buffer struct includes both the solution buffer
and information about the solution count and hashx implementation.
With this change, it's possible to discern between hash construction
failures (invalid seed) and some external error like an mprotect()
failure.

This is an API breaking change to hashx, which modifies the error
handling strategy. The main goal here is to allow unproblematic
recovery from hashx_compile failures.
hashx_alloc can no longer fail for reasons other than memory
allocation. All platform-specific compile failures are now reported via
hashx_make(), in order to both allow later failure and avoid requiring
users of the API to maintain and test multiple failure paths.
Note that late failures may be more common in actual use than early
failures. Early failures represent architectures other than x86_64 and
aarch64. Late failures could represent a number of system configurations
where syscalls are restricted.
The definition of a hashx context no longer tries to overlay storage for
the different types of program, and instead allows one context to always
contain an interpretable description of the program as well as an optional
buffer for compiled code.
The hashx_type enum is now used to mean either a specific type of hash
function or a type of hashx context. You can allocate a context for use
only with interpreted or compiled functions, or you can use
HASHX_TRY_COMPILE to prefer the compiler with an automatic fallback on
the interpreter. After calling hashx_make(), the new hashx_query_type()
can be used if needed to determine which implementation was actually
chosen.
The error return types have been overhauled so that everyone uses the
hashx_result enum, and seed failures vs compile failures are always
clearly distinguishable.
Signed-off-by: Micah Elizabeth Scott <beth@torproject.org>
This is a minimal portion of the fix for tor issue #40794, in which
hashx segfaults due to denial of mprotect() syscalls at runtime.
Prior to this fix, hashx makes the assumption that if the JIT is
supported on the current architecture, it will also be usable at
runtime. This isn't true if mprotect fails on linux, which it may for
various reasons: the tor built-in sandbox, the shadow simulator, or
external security software that implements a syscall filter.
The necessary error propagation was missing internally in hashx,
causing us to obliviously call into code which was never made
executable. With this fix, hashx_make() will instead fail by returning
zero.
A proper fix will require API changes so that callers can discern
between different types of failures. Zero already means that a program
couldn't be constructed, which requires a different response: choosing a
different seed, vs switching implementations. Callers would also benefit
from a way to use one context (with its already-built program) to
run in either compiled or interpreted mode.

The code style in equix and hashx sometimes uses bitwise operators

Signed-off-by: Micah Elizabeth Scott <beth@torproject.org>
This is an additional test case for test_sandbox that runs a small
subset of test_crypto_equix() inside the syscall sandbox, where
mprotect() is filtered.
It's reasonable for the sandbox to disallow JIT. We could revise this
policy if we want, but it seems a good default for now. The problem
in issue 40794 is that both equix and hashx need improvements in their
API to handle failures after allocation time, and this failure occurs
while the hash function is being compiled.
With this commit only, the segfault from issue 40794 is reproduced.
Subsequent commits will fix the segfault and revise the API.

This patch makes Tor log state transitions within the PT layer at the
info log-level. This should make it easier to figure out if Tor ends up
in a strange state.
See: tpo/core/tor#33669
This started as a response to ticket #40792 where Coverity is
complaining about a potential year 2038 bug where we cast time_t from
approx_time() to uint32_t for use in token_bucket_ctr.
There was a larger can of worms though, since token_bucket really
doesn't want to be using wallclock time here. I audited the call sites
for approx_time() and changed any that used a 32-bit cast or made
inappropriate use of wallclock time. Things like certificate lifetime,
consensus intervals, etc. need wallclock time. Measurements of rates
over time, however, are better served with a monotonic timer that does
not try and sync with wallclock ever.
Looking closer at token_bucket, its design is a bit odd because it was
initially intended for use with tick units but later forked into
token_bucket_rw which uses ticks to count bytes per second, and
token_bucket_ctr which uses seconds to count slower events. The rates
represented by either token bucket can't be lower than 1 per second, so
the slower timer in 'ctr' is necessary to represent the slower rates of
things like connections or introduction packets or rendezvous attempts.
I considered modifying token_bucket to use 64-bit timestamps overall
instead of 32-bit, but that seemed like an unnecessarily invasive change
that would grant some peace of mind but probably not help much. I was
more interested in removing the dependency on wallclock time. The
token_bucket_rw timer already uses monotonic time. This patch converts
token_bucket_ctr to use monotonic time as well. It introduces a new
monotime_coarse_absolute_sec(), which is currently the same as nsec
divided by a billion but could be optimized easily if we ever need to.
This patch also might fix a rollover bug.. I haven't tested this
extensively but I don't think the previous version of the rollover code
on either token bucket was correct, and I would expect it to get stuck
after the first rollover.

This dequeue path has been through a few revisions by now, first
limiting us to a fixed number per event loop callback, then an
additional limit based on a token bucket, then the current version
which has only the token bucket.
The thinking behing processing multiple requests per callback was to
optimize our usage of libevent, but in effect this creates a
prioritization problem. I think even a small fixed limit would be less
reliable than just backing out this optimization and always allowing
other callbacks to interrupt us in-between dequeues.

This centralizes the logic for deciding on these magic thresholds,
and tries to reduce them to just two: a min and max. The min should be a

we expect to be able to complete very soon. The max level triggers a
bulk culling process that reduces the queue to half that amount.

settings if they're present, and uses generic defaults if the user asked
for an unlimited dequeue rate in torrc.

This is trying to be an AIMD event-driven algorithm, but we ended up with

effort of zero as long as even low-effort attacks are flooding the
pqueue.

The goal of this patch is to add an additional mechanism for adjusting
PoW effort upwards, where clients rather than services can choose to
solve their puzzles at a higher effort than what was suggested in the
descriptor.
I wanted to use hs_cache's existing unreachability stats to drive this
effort bump, but this revealed some cases where a circuit (intro or
rend) closed early on can end up in hs_cache with an all zero intro
point key, where nobody will find it. This moves intro_auth_pk
initialization earlier in a couple places and adds nonfatal asserts to
catch the problem if it shows up elsewhere.
The actual effort adjustment method I chose is to multiply the suggested
effort by (1 + unresponsive_count), then ensure the result is at least
1. If a service has suggested effort of 0 but we fail to connect,
retries will all use an effort of 1. If the suggestion was 50, we'll try
50, 100, 150, 200, etc. This is bounded both by our client effort limit
and by the limit on unresponsive_count (currently 5).

I don't think the concept of "minimum effort" is really useful to us,
so this patch removes it entirely and consequentially changes the way
that "total" effort is calculated so that we don't rely on any minimum
and we instead ramp up effort no faster than necessary.
If at least some portion of the attack is conducted by clients that
avoid PoW or provide incorrect solutions, those (potentially very
cheap) attacks will end up keeping the pqueue full. Prior to this patch,
that would cause suggested efforts to be unnecessarily high, because
rounding these very cheap requests up to even a minimum of 1 will
overestimate how much actual attack effort is being spent.
The result is that this patch is a simplification and it also allows a
slower start, where PoW effort jumps up either by a single unit or by an
amount calculated from actual effort in the queue.

In proposal 327, "POW_SEED is the first 4 bytes of the seed used".
The proposal doesn't specifically mention the data type of this field,
and the code in hs_pow so far treats it as an integer but semantically
it's more like the first four bytes of an already-encoded little endian
blob. This leads to a byte swap, since the type confusion takes place
in a little-endian subsystem but the wire encoding of seed_head uses
tor's default of big endian.
This patch does not address the underlying type confusion, it's a
minimal change that only swaps the byte order and updates unit tests
accordingly. Further changes will clean up the data types.

First (both client and service), make descriptor parsing not fail when
suggested_effort is 0.
Second (client side), if we get a descriptor with a pow_params section
but with suggested_effort of 0, treat it as not requiring a pow.
Third (service side), when deciding whether the suggested effort has
changed, don't treat "previous suggested effort 0, new suggested effort 0"
as a change.
An alternative design to resolve 'first' and 'second' above would be
to omit the pow_params from the descriptor when suggested_effort is 0,
so clients never see the pow_params so they don't compute a pow. But
I decided to include a pow_params with an explicit suggested_effort
of 0, since this way the client knows the seed etc so they can solve
a higher-effort pow if they want. The tradeoff is that the descriptor
reveals whether HiddenServicePoWDefensesEnabled is set to 1 for this onion
service, even if the AIMD calculation is currently requiring effort 0.
our pqueue implementation does bizarre unspecified things with
ordering of elements that are equal. it certainly doesn't do any
sort of "first in first out" property that i was expecting.
now make it explicit by saying that "equal-effort, added-earlier" is
higher priority.
specifically, if we have 16 in-flight rend circs, and the next
one at the top of the pqueue is lower than our suggested effort,
then don't launch it yet.
this way we always launch adequate-effort requests immediately, and
we always handle *some* low-effort requests, but we are ready at any
moment to handle a few new adequate-effort requests.
this change makes us reach the callback *after* each mainloop
run, rather than as the next event to run immediately after
activation.
with the old behavior, we were starving everything else to drain the
pqueue entirely, each time we got a new intro2 cell.
now we at least will get to other activities as well.
now we let ourselves queue up to twice as many as we expect, and when
we get to the limit we make a new pqueue and move over the first n
elements that we like most.
(the old approach, of calling SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT_KEEPORDER() on
elements in a pqueue, will destroy its heapify property.)
we also discard elements that are too old, either during the trimming
process or if they come up as the next request to respond to.
lastly, fix a fencepost error on how many rend reqs we would handle
per iteration.
If PoW are enabled, use a priority queue by effort for the rendezvous
requests hooked into the mainloop.

We discovered two cases where edge connections can stall during testing:
1. Due to final data sitting in the edge inbuf when it was resumed
2. Due to flag synchronization between the token bucket and XON/XOFF
The first issue has always existed in C-Tor, but we were able to tickle it
in scp testing. If the last data from the protocol is able to fit in the
inbuf, but not large enough to send, if an XOFF or connection block comes in
at exactly that point, when the edge connection resumes, there will be no
data to read from the socket, but the inbuf can just sit there, never
draining.
We noticed the second issue along the way to finding the first. It seems
wrong, but it didn't seem to affect anything in practice.

In https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/issues/40623, we changed the
DESTROY propogation to ensure memory was freed quickly at relays. This was a
good move, but it exacerbates the condition where a stream is closed on a
circuit, and then it is immediately closed because it is dirty. This creates a
race between the DESTROY and the last data sent on the stream. This race is
visible in shadow, and does happen.
This could be backported. A better solution to these kinds of problems is to
create an ENDED cell, and not close any circuits until the ENDED comes back.
But this will also require thinking, since this ENDED cell can also get lost,
so some kind of timeout may be needed either way. The ENDED cell could just
allow us to have much longer timeouts for this case.
This adds utility functions to help stream block decisions, as well as cpath
layer_hint checks for stream cell acceptance, and syncing stream lists
for conflux circuits.
These functions are then called throughout the codebase to properly manage
conflux streams.
Streams can get blocked on a circuit in two ways:
1. When the circuit package window is full
2. When the channel's cell queue is too high
Conflux needs to decouple stream blocking from both of these conditions,
because streams can continue on another circuit, even if the primary circuit
is blocked for either of these cases.
However, both conflux and congestion control need to know if the channel's
cell queue hit the highwatermark and is still draining, because this condition
is used by those components, independent of stream state.
Therefore, this commit renames the 'streams_blocked_on_chan' variable to
signify that it refers to the cell queue state, and also refactors the actual
stream blocking bits out, so they can be handled separately if conflux is
present.
Because circuit-level sendmes are sent before relay data cells are processed,
we can safely move this to before the conflux decision. In this way,
regardless of conflux being negotiated, we still send sendmes as soon as data
cells are recieved. This avoids introducing conflux queue delay into RTT
measurement, which is important for measuring actual circuit capacity.
The circuit-level tracking must happen inside the call to send a data cell,
since that call now chooses a circuit to send on. Turns out, we were already
doing this kind of here, but only for the digest. Now we do both things here.
We use the oldest-circ-first method here, since that seems good for conflux:
queues could briefly spike, but the bad case is if they are maliciously
bloated to stick around for a long time.
The tradeoff here is that it is possible to kill old circuits on a relay
quickly, but that has always been the case with this algorithm choice.

This adds 2 histogram metrics for hidden services:
* `tor_hs_rend_circ_build_time` - the rendezvous circuit build time in milliseconds
* `tor_hs_intro_circ_build_time` - the introduction circuit build time in milliseconds
The text representation representation of the new metrics looks like this:
```
# HELP tor_hs_rend_circ_build_time The rendezvous circuit build time in milliseconds
# TYPE tor_hs_rend_circ_build_time histogram

This adds a `reason` label to the `hs_intro_rejected_intro_req_count` and
`hs_rdv_error_count` metrics introduced in #40755.
Metric look up and intialization is now more a bit more involved. This may be
fine for now, but it will become unwieldy if/when we add more labels (and as
such will need to be refactored).
Also, in the future, we may want to introduce finer grained `reason` labels.
For example, the `invalid_introduce2` label actually covers multiple types of
errors that can happen during the processing of an INTRODUCE2 cell (such as
cell parse errors, replays, decryption errors).

This introduces a couple of new service side metrics:
* `hs_intro_rejected_intro_req_count`, which counts the number of introduction
requests rejected by the hidden service
* `hs_rdv_error_count`, which counts the number of rendezvous errors as seen by
the hidden service (this number includes the number of circuit establishment
failures, failed retries, end-to-end circuit setup failures)
Closes#40755. This partially addresses #40717.

Directory authorities now include their AuthDirMaxServersPerAddr
config option in the consensus parameter section of their vote. Now
external tools can better predict how they will behave.
In particular, the value should make its way to the
https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#consensusparams page.
Once enough dir auths vote this param, they should also compute a
consensus value for it in the consensus document. Nothing uses this
consensus value yet, but we could imagine having dir auths consult it
in the future.
Implements ticket 40753.
This updates the docs to stop suggesting `pk` can be NULL, as that doesn't seem
to be the case anymore (`tor_assert(pk)`).

When I copied this to arti, I messed up and thought that the default
time period was 1440 seconds for some weird testing reason. That led
to confusion.
This commit adds a test case that time period 1440 is May 20, 1973:
now arti and c tor match!
