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.
Previously, we used !directory_fetches_from_authorities() to predict
that we would tunnel connections. But the rules have changed
somewhat over the course of 0.2.8
So, back long ago, XXX012 meant, "before Tor 0.1.2 is released, we
had better revisit this comment and fix it!"
But we have a huge pile of such comments accumulated for a large
number of released versions! Not cool.
So, here's what I tried to do:
* 0.2.9 and 0.2.8 are retained, since those are not yet released.
* XXX+ or XXX++ or XXX++++ or whatever means, "This one looks
quite important!"
* The others, after one-by-one examination, are downgraded to
plain old XXX. Which doesn't mean they aren't a problem -- just
that they cannot possibly be a release-blocking problem.
There was a > that should have been an ==, and a missing !. These
together prevented us from issuing a warning in the case that a
nickname matched an Unnamed node only.
Fixes bug 19203; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
There are a few places where we want to disable a warning: for
example, when it's impossible to call a legacy API without
triggering it, or when it's impossible to include an external header
without triggering it.
This pile of macros uses GCC's c99 _Pragma support, plus the usual
macro trickery, to enable and disable warnings.
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.
