Right now we only force a new descriptor upload every 18 hours.
This can make servers become unlisted if they upload a descriptor at
time T which the authorities reject as being "too similar" to one
they uploaded before. Nothing will actually make the server upload a
new descriptor later on, until another 18 hours have passed.
This patch changes the upload behavior so that the 18 hour interval
applies only when we're listed in a live consensus with a descriptor
published within the last 18 hours. Otherwise--if we're not listed
in the live consensus, or if we're listed with a publication time
over 18 hours in the past--we upload a new descriptor every 90
minutes.
This is an attempted bugfix for #3327. If we merge it, it should
obsolete #535.
Proposal 171 gives us a new syntax for parsing client port options.
You can now have as many FooPort options as you want (for Foo in
Socks, Trans, DNS, NATD), and they can have address:port arguments,
and you can specify the level of isolation on those ports.
Additionally, this patch refactors the client port parsing logic to
use a new type, port_cfg_t. Previously, ports to be bound were
half-parsed in config.c, and later re-parsed in connection.c when
we're about to bind them. Now, parsing a port means converting it
into a port_cfg_t, and binding it uses only a port_cfg_t, without
needing to parse the user-provided strings at all.
We should do a related refactoring on other port types. For
control ports, that'll be easy enough. For ORPort and DirPort,
we'll want to do this when we solve proposal 118 (letting servers
bind to and advertise multiple ports).
This implements tickets 3514 and 3515.
This lets us make a lot of other stuff const, allows the compiler to
generate (slightly) better code, and will make me get slightly fewer
patches from folks who stick mutable stuff into or_options_t.
const: because not every input is an output!
Original message from bug3393:
check_private_dir() to ensure that ControlSocketsGroupWritable is
safe to use. Unfortunately, check_private_dir() only checks against
the currently running user… which can be root until privileges are
dropped to the user and group configured by the User config option.
The attached patch fixes the issue by adding a new effective_user
argument to check_private_dir() and updating the callers. It might
not be the best way to fix the issue, but it did in my tests.
(Code by lunar; changelog by nickm)
options->DirPort is 0 in the unit tests, so
router_get_advertised_dir_port() would return 0 so we wouldn't pick a
dirport. This isn't what we want for the unit tests. Fixes bug
introduced in 95ac3ea594.
The conflicts were mainly caused by the routerinfo->node transition.

The comment fixes are trivial. The defensive programming trick is to
tolerate receiving NULL inputs on the describe functions. That should
never actually happen, but it seems like the likeliest mistake for us
to make in the future.
The previous attempt was incomplete: it told us not to publish a
descriptor, but didn't stop us from generating one. Now we treat an
absent OR port the same as not knowing our address. (This means
that when we _do_ get an OR port, we need to mark the descriptor
dirty.)
More attempt to fix bug3216.
This situation can happen easily if you set 'ORPort auto' and
'AccountingMax'. Doing so means that when you have no ORPort, you
won't be able to set an ORPort in a descriptor, so instead you would
just generate lots of invalid descriptors, freaking out all the time.
Possible fix for 3216; fix on 0.2.2.26-beta.
This patch introduces a few new functions in router.c to produce a
more helpful description of a node than its nickame, and then tweaks
nearly all log messages taking a nickname as an argument to call these
functions instead.
There are a few cases where I left the old log messages alone: in
these cases, the nickname was that of an authority (whose nicknames
are useful and unique), or the message already included an identity
and/or an address. I might have missed a couple more too.
This is a fix for bug 3045.
We'll eventually want to do more work here to make sure that the ports
are stable over multiple invocations. Otherwise, turning your node on
and off will get you a new DirPort/ORPort needlessly.

Here I looked at the results of the automated conversion and cleaned
them up as follows:
If there was a tor_memcmp or tor_memeq that was in fact "safe"[*] I
changed it to a fast_memcmp or fast_memeq.
Otherwise if there was a tor_memcmp that could turn into a
tor_memneq or tor_memeq, I converted it.
This wants close attention.
[*] I'm erring on the side of caution here, and leaving some things
as tor_memcmp that could in my opinion use the data-dependent
fast_memcmp variant.
To turn this on, set UseMicrodescriptors to "1" (or "auto" if you
want it on-if-you're-a-client). It should go auto-by-default once
0.2.3.1-alpha is released.
Because of our node logic, directory caches will never use
microdescriptors when they have the right routerinfo available.
Previously it would erroneously return true if ListenAddr was set for
a client port, even if that port itself was 0. This would give false
positives, which were not previously harmful... but which were about
to become.
