I expect we'll be ripping this out somewhere in 0.3.0, but let's
keep it around for a little while in case it turns out to be the
only way to avert disaster?
When a nonprimary guard's circuit is complete, we don't call it
actually usable until we are pretty sure that every better guard
is indeed not going to give us a working circuit.
Here we add a little bit of state to origin circuits, and set up
the necessary functions for the circuit code to call in order to
find guards, use guards, and decide when circuits can be used.
There's also an incomplete function for the hard part of the
circuit-maintenance code, where we figure out whether any waiting
guards are ready to become usable.
(This patch finally uses the handle.c code to make safe handles to
entry_guard_t objects, so that we are allowed to free an
entry_guard_t without checking whether any origin_circuit_t is
holding a reference to it.)
This code handles:
* Maintaining the sampled set, the filtered set, and the
usable_filtered set.
* Maintaining the confirmed and primary guard lists.
* Picking guards for circuits, and updating guard state when
circuit state changes.
Additionally, I've done code structure movement: even more constants
and structures from entrynodes.c have become ENTRYNODES_PRIVATE
fields of entrynodes.h.
I've also included a bunch of documentation and a bunch of unit
tests. Coverage on the new code is pretty high.
I've noted important things to resolve before this branch is done
with the /XXXX.*prop271/ regex.
These are taken from the proposal, and defined there. Some of them
should turn into consensus parameters.
Also, remove some dead code that was there to make compilation work,
and use ATTR_UNUSED like a normal person.
The previous commit, in moving a bunch of functions to bridges.c,
broke compilation because bridges.c required two entry points to
entrynodes.c it didn't have.
This patch is just:
* Code movement
* Adding headers here and there as needed
* Adding a bridges_free_all() with a call to it.
It breaks compilation, since the bridge code needed to make exactly
2 calls into entrynodes.c internals. I'll fix those in the next
commit.
The encoding code is very straightforward. The decoding code is a
bit tricky, but clean-ish. The sampling code is untested and
probably needs more work.
This was a relatively mechanical change. First, I added an accessor
function for the pathbias-state field of a guard. Then I did a
search-and-replace in circpathbias.c to replace "guard->pb." with
"pb->". Finally, I made sure that "pb" was declared whenever it was
needed.
The entry_guard_t structure should really be opaque, so that we
can change its contents and have the rest of Tor not care.
This commit makes it "mostly opaque" -- circpathbias.c can still see
inside it. (I'm making circpathbias.c exempt since it's the only
part of Tor outside of entrynodes.c that made serious use of
entry_guard_t internals.)
Clients that use bridges were ignoring their cached microdesc-flavor
consensus files, because they only thought they should use the microdesc
flavor once they had a known-working bridge that could offer microdescs,
and at first boot no bridges are known-working.
This bug caused bridge-using clients to download a new microdesc consensus
on each startup.
Fixes bug 20269; bugfix on 0.2.3.12-alpha.
base16_decodes() now returns the number of decoded bytes. It's interface
changes from returning a "int" to a "ssize_t". Every callsite now checks the
returned value.

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.
Regardless of the setting of ExtendAllowPrivateAddresses.
This fixes a bug with pluggable transports that ignore the
(potentially private) address in their bridge line.
Fixes bug 18517; bugfix on 23b088907f in tor-0.2.8.1-alpha.
When ClientPreferIPv6ORPort is auto, bridges prefer the configured
bridge ORPort address. Otherwise, they use the value of the option.
Other clients prefer IPv4 ORPorts if ClientPreferIPv6ORPort is auto.
When ClientPreferIPv6DirPort is auto, all clients prefer IPv4 DirPorts.
ClientUseIPv4 0 tells tor to avoid IPv4 client connections.
ClientPreferIPv6DirPort 1 tells tor to prefer IPv6 directory connections.
Refactor policy for IPv4/IPv6 preferences.
Fix a bug where node->ipv6_preferred could become stale if
ClientPreferIPv6ORPort was changed after the consensus was loaded.
Update documentation, existing code, add unit tests.
Incidently, this fixes a bug where the maximum value was never used when
only using crypto_rand_int(). For instance this example below in
rendservice.c never gets to INTRO_POINT_LIFETIME_MAX_SECONDS.
int intro_point_lifetime_seconds =
INTRO_POINT_LIFETIME_MIN_SECONDS +
crypto_rand_int(INTRO_POINT_LIFETIME_MAX_SECONDS -
INTRO_POINT_LIFETIME_MIN_SECONDS);
