This is used for the bridge authority currently, to get a better
intuition on how many descriptors are actually fetched from it and how
many fetches happen in total.
Implements ticket 4200.
With managed proxies you would always get the error message:
"You have a Bridge line using the X pluggable transport, but there
doesn't seem to be a corresponding ClientTransportPlugin line."
because the check happened directly after parse_client_transport_line()
when managed proxies were not fully configured and their transports
were not registered.
The fix is to move the validation to run_scheduled_events() and make
sure that all managed proxies are configured first.
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.

Some of these were a little tricky, since they touched code that
changed because of the prop171 fixes.
The "nym epoch" of a stream is defined as the number of times that
NEWNYM had been called before the stream was opened. All streams
are isolated by nym epoch.
This feature should be redundant with existing signewnym stuff, but
it provides a good belt-and-suspenders way for us to avoid ever
letting any circuit type bypass signewnym.
* Add some utility transport functions in circuitbuild.[ch] so that we
can use them from pt.c.
* Make the accounting system consider traffic coming from proxies.
* Make sure that we only fetch bridge descriptors when all the
transports are configured.
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!
On win64, sockets are of type UINT_PTR; on win32 they're u_int;
elsewhere they're int. The correct windows way to check a socket for
being set is to compare it with INVALID_SOCKET; elsewhere you see if
it is negative.
On Libevent 2, all callbacks take sockets as evutil_socket_t; we've
been passing them int.
This patch should fix compilation and correctness when built for
64-bit windows. Fixes bug 3270.
When we configure a new bridge via the controller, don't wait up to ten
seconds before trying to fetch its descriptor. This wasn't so bad when
you listed your bridges in torrc, but it's dreadful if you configure
your bridges via vidalia.
If you really want to purge the client DNS cache, the TrackHostExits
mappings, and the virtual address mappings, you should be using NEWNYM
instead.
Fixes bug 1345; bugfix on Tor 0.1.0.1-rc.
Note that this needs more work: now that we aren't nuking the
transient addressmap entries on HUP, we need to make sure that
configuration changes to VirtualAddressMap and TrackHostExits actually
have a reasonable effect.
To make sure that a server learns if its IP has changed, the server
sometimes launches authority.z descriptor fetches from
update_router_descriptor_downloads. That's nice, but we're moving
towards a situation where update_router_descriptor_downloads doesn't
always get called. So this patch breaks the authority.z
check-and-fetch into a new function.
This function also renames last_routerdesc_download to a more
appropriate last_descriptor_download, and adds a new
update_all_descriptor_downloads() function.
(For now, this is unnecessary, since servers don't actually use
microdescriptors. But that could change, or bridges could start
using microdescriptors, and then we'll be glad this is refactored
nicely.)
