torrc.minimal is now the one that should change as infrequently as
possible. To schedule an change to go into it eventually, make your
change to torrc.minimal.in-sample.
torrc.sample is now the volatile one: we can change it to our hearts'
content.
Closes ticket #11144
This implements a feature from bug 13000. Instead of starting a bwauth
run with this wrong idea about their bw, relays should do the self-test
and then get measured.
When a tor relay starts up and has no historical information about its
bandwidth capability, it uploads a descriptor with a bw estimate of 0.
It then starts its bw selftest, but has to wait 20 minutes to upload the
next descriptor due to the MAX_BANDWIDTH_CHANGE_FREQ delay. This change
should mean that on average, relays start seeing meaningful traffic a
little quicker, since they will have a higher chance to appear in the
consensus with a nonzero bw.
Patch by Roger, changes file and comment by Sebastian.
Most of these are in somewhat non-obvious code where it is probably
a good idea to initialize variables and add extra assertions anyway.
Closes 13036. Patches from "teor".
It's now a protocol-warn, since there's nothing relay operators can
do about a client that sends them a malformed create cell.
Resolves bug 12996; bugfix on 0.0.6rc1.
The fix for bug 4647 accidentally removed our hack from bug 586 that
rewrote HashedControlPassword to __HashedControlSessionPassword when
it appears on the commandline (which allowed the user to set her own
HashedControlPassword in the torrc file while the controller generates
a fresh session password for each run).
Fixes bug 12948; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
This way, we don't get locking failures when we hit an assertion in
the unit tests. Also, we might find out about unit test bugs from
folks who can't do gdb.
Two bugs here:
1) We didn't add EXTEND2/EXTENDED2 to relay_command_to_string().
2) relay_command_to_string() didn't log the value of unrecognized
commands.
Both fixed here.
When we merged the cookieauthfile creation logic in 33c3e60a37, we
accidentally took out this feature. Fixes bug 12864, bugfix on
0.2.5.1-alpha.
Also adds an ExtORPortCookieAuthFileGroupReadable, since there's no
reason not to.
When Tor starts with DisabledNetwork set, it would correctly
conclude that it shouldn't try making circuits, but it would
mistakenly cache this conclusion and continue believing it even
when DisableNetwork is set to 0. Fixes the bug introduced by the
fix for bug 11200; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
Our current systemd unit uses "Type = simple", so systemd does not expect tor to
fork. If the user has "RunAsDaemon 1" in their torrc, then things won't work as
expected. This is e.g. the case on Debian (and derivatives), since there we pass
"--defaults-torrc /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc" (that contains
"RunAsDaemon 1") by default.
The only solution I could find is to explicitly pass "--RunAsDaemon 0" when
starting tor from the systemd unit file, which this commit does.
Those used to be normal to receive on hidden service circuits due to bug
1038, but the buggy Tor versions are long gone from the network so we
can afford to resume watching for them. Resolves the rest of bug 1038;
bugfix on 0.2.1.19.
This function is supposed to construct a list of all the ciphers in
the "v2 link protocol cipher list" that are supported by Tor's
openssl. It does this by invoking ssl23_get_cipher_by_char on each
two-byte ciphersuite ID to see which ones give a match. But when
ssl23_get_cipher_by_char cannot find a match for a two-byte SSL3/TLS
ciphersuite ID, it checks to see whether it has a match for a
three-byte SSL2 ciphersuite ID. This was causing a read off the end
of the 'cipherid' array.
This was probably harmless in practice, but we shouldn't be having
any uninitialized reads.
(Using ssl23_get_cipher_by_char in this way is a kludge, but then
again the entire existence of the v2 link protocol is kind of a
kludge. Once Tor 0.2.2 clients are all gone, we can drop this code
entirely.)
Found by starlight. Fix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. Fixes bug 12227.
Authorities now assign the Guard flag to the fastest 25% of the
network (it used to be the fastest 50%). Also raise the consensus
weight that guarantees the Guard flag from 250 to 2000. For the
current network, this results in about 1100 guards, down from 2500.
This step paves the way for moving the number of entry guards
down to 1 (proposal 236) while still providing reasonable expected
performance for most users.
Implements ticket 12690.
Found because LibreSSL has OPENSSL_NO_COMP always-on, but this
conflicts with the way that _we_ turn off compression. Patch from
dhill, who attributes it to "OpenBSD". Fixes bug 12602; bugfix on
0.2.1.1-alpha, which introduced this turn-compression-off code.
- Don't try to rm -rf the directory before we start: somebody might
have set it to ~, which would be quite sad.
- Always quote the directory name
- Use 'make reset-gcov' before running tests.
- Use 'make check', not ./src/test/test
Otherwise, it always seems as though our Exclude* options have
changed, since we're comparing modified to unmodified values.
Patch from qwerty1. Fixes bug 9801. Bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha, where
GeoIPExcludeUnknown was introduced.
