The old implementation had duplicated code in a bunch of places, and
it interspersed spool-management with resource management. The new
implementation should make it easier to add new resource types and
maintain the spooling code.
Closing ticket 21651.
When calculating max sampled size, Tor would only count the number of
bridges in torrc, without considering that our state file might already
have sampled bridges in it. This caused problems when people swap
bridges, since the following error would trigger:
[warn] Not expanding the guard sample any further; just hit the
maximum sample threshold of 1
This patch changes the way we decide when to check for whether it's time
to rotate and/or expiry our onion keys. Due to proposal #274 we can now
have the keys rotate at different frequencies than before and we thus
do the check once an hour when our Tor daemon is running in server mode.
This should allow us to quickly notice if the network consensus
parameter have changed while we are running instead of having to wait
until the current parameters timeout value have passed.

This patch adds a new timer that is executed when it is time to expire
our current set of old onion keys. Because of proposal #274 this can no
longer be assumed to be at the same time we rotate our onion keys since
they will be updated less frequently.

This patch adds an API to get the current grace period, in days, defined
as the consensus parameter "onion-key-grace-period-days".
As per proposal #274 the values for "onion-key-grace-period-days" is a
default value of 7 days, a minimum value of 1 day, and a maximum value
defined by other consensus parameter "onion-key-rotation-days" also
defined in days.
See: https://bugs.torproject.org/21641
This patch turns `MIN_ONION_KEY_LIFETIME` into a new function
`get_onion_key_lifetime()` which gets its value from a network consensus
parameter named "onion-key-rotation-days". This allows us to tune the
value at a later point in time with no code modifications.
We also bump the default onion key lifetime from 7 to 28 days as per
proposal #274.

This patch fixes a regression described in bug #21757 that first
appeared after commit 6e78ede73f which was an attempt to fix bug #21654.
When switching from buffered I/O to direct file descriptor I/O our
output strings from get_string_from_pipe() might contain newline
characters (\n). In this patch we modify tor_get_lines_from_handle() to
ensure that the function splits the newly read string at the newline
character and thus might return multiple lines from a single call to
get_string_from_pipe().
Additionally, we add a test case to test_util_string_from_pipe() to
ensure that get_string_from_pipe() correctly returns multiple lines in a
single call.

We could use one of these for holding "junk" descriptors and
unparseable things -- but we'll _need_ it for having cached
consensuses and diffs between them.
There was a frequent block of code that did "find the next router
line, see if we've hit the end of the list, get the ID hash from the
line, and enforce well-ordering." Per Ahf's review, I'm extracting
it to its own function.
Previously, we operated on smartlists of NUL-terminated strings,
which required us to copy both inputs to produce the NUL-terminated
strings. Then we copied parts of _those_ inputs to produce an
output smartlist of NUL-terminated strings. And finally, we
concatenated everything into a final resulting string.
This implementation, instead, uses a pointer-and-extent pattern to
represent each line as a pointer into the original inputs and a
length. These line objects are then added by reference into the
output. No actual bytes are copied from the original strings until
we finally concatenate the final result together.
Bookkeeping structures and newly allocated strings (like ed
commands) are allocated inside a memarea, to avoid needless mallocs
or complicated should-I-free-this-or-not bookkeeping.
In my measurements, this improves CPU performance by something like
18%. The memory savings should be much, much higher.
This takes two fuzzers: one which generates a diff and makes sure it
works, and one which applies a diff.
So far, they won't crash, but there's a bug in my
string-manipulation code someplace that I'm having to work around,
related to the case where you have a blank line at the end of a
file, or where you diff a file with itself.
