Using variables removes the ambiguity about when to use variables and
when to use substitutions. Variables always work. Substitutions only
work when Autoconf knows about them which is not always the case.
The variables are also placed between quotes to ensures spaces in the
variables are handled properly.
Update the code for IPv6 authorities and fallbacks for function
argument changes.
Update unit tests affected by the function argument changes in
the patch.
Add unit tests for authority and fallback:
* adding via a function
* line parsing
* adding default authorities
(Adding default fallbacks is unit tested in #15775.)
The internal memory allocation and history object counters of the
reputation code can be used to verify the correctness of (part of) the
code. Using these counters revealed an issue where the memory allocation
counter is not decreased when the bandwidth arrays are freed.
A new function ensures the memory allocation counter is decreased when a
bandwidth array is freed.
This commit also removes an unnecessary cast which was found while
working on the code.
* Since the variable is no longer modified, it should be called
'policy' instead of 'dest'. ("Dest" is short for
"destination".)
* Fixed the space issue that dgoulet found on the ticket.
* Fixed the comment a little. (We use the imperative for function
documentation.)
Some functions that use digest maps did not mention that the digests are
expected to have DIGEST_LEN bytes. This lead to buffer over-reads in the
past.
The hidden service descriptor cache (rendcache) tests use digest maps
which expect keys to have a length of DIGEST_LEN.
Because the tests use key strings with a length lower than DIGEST_LEN,
the internal copy operation reads outside the key strings which leads to
buffer over-reads.
The issue is resolved by using character arrays with a size of
DIGEST_LEN.
Patch on ade5005853.
The tests pass empty digest strings to the dir_server_new function which
copies it into a directory server structure. The copy operation expects
the digest strings to be DIGEST_LEN characters long.
Because the length of the empty digest strings are lower than
DIGEST_LEN, the copy operation reads outside the digest strings which
leads to buffer over-reads.
The issue is resolved by using character arrays with a size of
DIGEST_LEN.
