The next series of commits begins addressing the issue that we're
currently including the complete or.h file in all of our source files.
To change that, we're splitting function definitions into new header
files (one header file per source file).
We implemented ratelimiting for warnings going into the logfile, but didn't
rate-limit controller events. Now both log warnings and controller events
are rate-limited.
The OutboundBindAddress option is useful for making sure that all of
your outbond connections use a given interface. But when connecting
to 127.0.0.1 (or ::1 even) it's important to actually have the
connection come _from_ localhost, since lots of programs running on
localhost use the source address to authenticate that the connection
is really coming from the same host.
Our old code always bound to OutboundBindAddress, whether connecting
to localhost or not. This would potentially break DNS servers on
localhost, and socks proxies on localhost. This patch changes the
behavior so that we only look at OutboundBindAddress when connecting
to a non-loopback address.
The new rule is: safe_str_X() means "this string is a piece of X
information; make it safe to log." safe_str() on its own means
"this string is a piece of who-knows-what; make it safe to log".
There are two big changes here:
- We store active circuits in a priority queue for each or_conn,
rather than doing a linear search over all the active circuits
before we send each cell.
- Rather than multiplying every circuit's cell-ewma by a decay
factor every time we send a cell (thus normalizing the value of a
current cell to 1.0 and a past cell to alpha^t), we instead
only scale down the cell-ewma every tick (ten seconds atm),
normalizing so that a cell sent at the start of the tick has
value 1.0).
Each circuit is ranked in terms of how many cells from it have been
relayed recently, using a time-weighted average.
This patch has been tested this on a private Tor network on PlanetLab,
and gotten improvements of 12-35% in time it takes to fetch a small
web page while there's a simultaneous large data transfer going on
simultaneously.
[Commit msg by nickm based on mail from Ian Goldberg.]
Some *_free functions threw asserts when passed NULL. Now all of them
accept NULL as input and perform no action when called that way.
This gains us consistence for our free functions, and allows some
code simplifications where an explicit null check is no longer necessary.
In C, the code "char x[10]; if (x) {...}" always takes the true branch of
the if statement. Coverity notices this now.
In some cases, we were testing arrays to make sure that an operation
we wanted to do would suceed. Those cases are now always-true.
In some cases, we were testing arrays to see if something was _set_.
Those caes are now tests for strlen(s), or tests for
!tor_mem_is_zero(d,len).
Changes to directory request statistics:
- Rename GEOIP statistics to DIRREQ statistics, because they now include
more than only GeoIP-based statistics, whereas other statistics are
GeoIP-dependent, too.
- Rename output file from geoip-stats to dirreq-stats.
- Add new config option DirReqStatistics that is required to measure
directory request statistics.
- Clean up ChangeLog.
Also ensure that entry guards statistics have access to a local GeoIP
database.
Added a sanity check in config.c and a check in directory.c
directory_initiate_command_rend() to catch any direct connection attempts
when a socks proxy is configured.
The rest of the code was only including event.h so that it could see
EV_READ and EV_WRITE, which we were using as part of the
connection_watch_events interface for no very good reason.
The subversion $Id$ fields made every commit force a rebuild of
whatever file got committed. They were not actually useful for
telling the version of Tor files in the wild.
svn:r17867
(The unfixed ones are being downgraded to regular XXXs mainly on the rationale that they don't seem to be exploding Tor, and they were apparently not showstoppers for 0.2.0.x-final.)
svn:r17682
Initial conversion of uint32_t addr to tor_addr_t addr in connection_t and related types. Most of the Tor wire formats using these new types are in, but the code to generate and use it is not. This is a big patch. Let me know what it breaks for you.
svn:r16435
Make generic address manipulation functions work better. Switch address policy code to use tor_addr_t, so it can handle IPv6. That is a good place to start.
svn:r16178
as soon as you run out of working bridges, rather than waiting
for ten failures -- which will never happen if you have less than
ten bridges.
svn:r15368
Only dump all guard node status to the log when the guard node status actually changes. Downgrade the 4 most common remaining INFO log messages to DEBUG.
svn:r14069
Answer one xxx020 item; move 7 other ones to a new "XXX020rc" category: they should get fixed before we cut a release candidate. arma: please review these to see whether you have fixes/answers for any. Please check out the other 14 XXX020s to see if any look critical for the release candidate.
svn:r13640
Resolved problems with (re-)fetching hidden service descriptors.
Before, v0 descriptors were not fetched at all (fix on 0.2.0.18-alpha),
re-fetching of v2 descriptors did not stop when a v0 descriptor was
received (fix on 0.2.0.18-alpha), and re-fetching of v2 descriptors did
not work in all cases (fix on 0.2.0.19-alpha).
svn:r13540
Bugfix from Karsten: "Reversed r13439; v2 rendezvous descriptors were only re-fetched when a directory connection did not finish, not when a directory correctly replied with an error code like 404; bug found by nwf.
svn:r13492
Be more thorough about memory poisoning and clearing. Add an in-place version of aes_crypt in order to remove a memcpy from relay_crypt_one_payload.
svn:r13414
Add more documentation; change the behavior of read_to_buf_tls to be more consistent. Note a longstanding problem with current read/write interfaces.
svn:r13407
Basic hacks to get TLS handshakes working: remove dead code; fix post-handshake logic; keep servers from writing while the client is supposed to be renegotiating. This may work. Needs testing.
svn:r13122
Here, have some terribly clever new buffer code. It uses a mbuf-like strategy rather than a ring buffer strategy, so it should require far far less extra memory to hold any given amount of data. Also, it avoids access patterns like x=malloc(1024);x=realloc(x,1048576);x=realloc(x,1024);append_to_freelist(x) that might have been contributing to memory fragmentation. I've tested it out a little on peacetime, and it seems to work so far. If you want to benchmark it for speed, make sure to remove the #define PARANOIA; #define NOINLINE macros at the head of the module.
svn:r12983
Add support to get a callback invoked when the client renegotiate a connection. Also, make clients renegotiate. (not enabled yet, until they detect that the server acted like a v2 server)
svn:r12623
Keep track, for each OR connection, of the last time we added a non-padding cell to its outbuf. Use this timestamp, not "lastwritten" to tell if it is time to close a circuitless connection. (We can'tuse lastwritten, since lastwritten is updated when ever the connection flushes anything, and by that point we can no longer tell what is a padding cell and what is not.)
svn:r12437
Fix bug 451. This was a nasty bug, so let's fix it twice: first, by banning recursive calls to connection_handle_write from connection_flushed_some; and second, by not calling connection_finished_flushing() on a closed connection. Backport candidate.
svn:r11882
Add debugging warning to not abort in the case of bug 483. This is probably not an actual error case, so we should figure out what is really causing it and do something more sensible.
svn:r11215
Patch from Robert Hogan: set conn->dns_server_port correctly so that we can close dns server ports when they change, thus avoiding crashes and dangling references and other sources of unhappiness.
svn:r10933
Tweaks on constrained socket buffers patch from coderman: Add a changelog; rename some variables; fix some long lines and whitespace; make ConstrainedSockSize a memunit; pass setsockopt a void.
svn:r10843
Well, that was easier than I thought it would be. Tor is now a DNS proxy as well as a socks proxy. Probably some bugs remain, but since it A) has managed to resolve one address for me successfully, and B) will not affect anybody who leaves DNSPort unset, it feel like a good time to commit.
svn:r10317
Initial version of code to stop using socket pairs for linked connections. Superficially, it seems to work, but it probably needs a lot more testing and attention.
svn:r9995
Track the number of connection_t separately from the number of open sockets. It is already possible to have connections that do not count: resolving conns, for one. Once we move from socketpairs to linked conns, and once we do dns proxying, there will be lots of such connections.
svn:r9994
A surprisingly simple patch to stop reading on edge connections when their circuits get too full, and start again when they empty out. This lets us remove the logic to block begin_dir conns when the corresponding or conns get full: it was already broken by cell queues anyway.
svn:r9905
Remove support for v0 control protocol from 0.2.0.x trunk; send back error when we receive a v0 control message. (Leave "if(v1){...}"blocks indented for now so this patch is easier to read.) ((Finally, the linecount goes _down_ a little.))
svn:r9735
Make all LD_BUG log messsages get prefixed with "Bug: ". Remove manually-generated "Bug: "s from log-messages. (Apparently, we remembered to add them about 40% of the time.)
svn:r9733
Fix connection_get_by_type_state_rendquery(): This has been bogus for most of 0.1.2.x. Thanks to Karsten Loesing for finding the bug; fixes bug 399.
svn:r9651
