Relays no longer publish a new server descriptor if they change
their MaxAdvertisedBandwidth config option but it doesn't end up
changing their advertised bandwidth numbers. Bugfix on 0.2.0.28-rc;
fixes bug 1026. Patch from Sebastian.
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.
This new option will allow clients to download the newest fresh consensus
much sooner than they normally would do so, even if they previously set
FetchDirInfoEarly. This includes a proper ChangeLog entry and an updated man
page.
This patch adds a new compat_libevent.[ch] set of files, and moves our
Libevent compatibility and utilitity functions there. We build them
into a separate .a so that nothing else in src/commmon depends on
Libevent (partially fixing bug 507).
Also, do not use our own built-in evdns copy when we have Libevent
2.0, whose evdns is finally good enough (thus fixing Bug 920).
Tas (thanks!) noticed that when *ListenAddress is set, Tor would
still warn on startup when *Port is low and hibernation is active.
The patch parses all the *ListenAddress lines, and checks the
ports. Bugfix on 0.2.1.15-rc
- Write geoip stats to disk every 24 hours, not every hour.
- Remove configuration options and define reasonable defaults.
- Clear history of client requests every 24 hours (which wasn't done at
all before).
Bridges are not supposed to publish router descriptors to the directory
authorities. It defeats the point of bridges when they are included in the
public relay directory.
This patch puts out a warning and exits when the node is configured as
a bridge and to publish v1, v2, or v3 descriptors at the same time.
Also fixes part of bug 932.
This addresses the first part of bug 918. Users are now warned when
they try to use hibernation in combination with a port below 1024
when they're not on Windows. We don't want to die here, because
people might run Tor as root, use a capabilities system or some
other platform that will allow them to re-attach low ports.
Wording suggested by Marian
Now, when you call tor --digests, it dumps the SHA1 digest of each
source file that Tor was built with. We support both 'sha1sum' and
'openssl sha1'. If the user is building from a tarball and they
haven't edited anything, they don't need any program that calculates
SHA1. If they _have_ modified a file but they don't have a program to
calculate SHA1, we try to build so we do not output digests.
