This is the meat of proposal 171: we change circuit_is_acceptable()
to require that the connection is compatible with every connection
that has been linked to the circuit; we update circuit_is_better to
prefer attaching streams to circuits in the way that decreases the
circuits' usefulness the least; and we update link_apconn_to_circ()
to do the appropriate bookkeeping.
This adds a little code complexity: we need to remember for each
node whether it supports the right feature, and then check for each
connection whether it's exiting at such a node. We store this in a
flag in the edge_connection_t, and set that flag at link time.
Instead, use compare_tor_addr_to_node_policy everywhere.
One advantage of this is that compare_tor_addr_to_node_policy can
better distinguish 0.0.0.0 from "unknown", which caused a nasty bug
with microdesc users.
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!

This patch introduces a few new functions in router.c to produce a
more helpful description of a node than its nickame, and then tweaks
nearly all log messages taking a nickname as an argument to call these
functions instead.
There are a few cases where I left the old log messages alone: in
these cases, the nickname was that of an authority (whose nicknames
are useful and unique), or the message already included an identity
and/or an address. I might have missed a couple more too.
This is a fix for bug 3045.

Here I looked at the results of the automated conversion and cleaned
them up as follows:
If there was a tor_memcmp or tor_memeq that was in fact "safe"[*] I
changed it to a fast_memcmp or fast_memeq.
Otherwise if there was a tor_memcmp that could turn into a
tor_memneq or tor_memeq, I converted it.
This wants close attention.
[*] I'm erring on the side of caution here, and leaving some things
as tor_memcmp that could in my opinion use the data-dependent
fast_memcmp variant.

Now we believe it to be the case that we never build a circuit for our
stream that has an unsuitable exit, so we'll never need to use such
a circuit. The risk is that we have some code that builds the circuit,
but now we refuse to use it, meaning we just build a bazillion circuits
and ignore them all.
We've got millisecond timers now, we might as well use them.
This change won't actually make circuits get expiered with microsecond
precision, since we only call the expiry functions once per second.
Still, it should avoid the situation where we have a circuit get
expired too early because of rounding.
A couple of the expiry functions now call tor_gettimeofday: this
should be cheap since we're only doing it once per second. If it gets
to be called more often, though, we should onsider having the current
time be an argument again.
There's no reason to keep a time_t and a struct timeval to represent
the same value: highres_created.tv_sec was the same as timestamp_created.
This should save a few bytes per circuit.
A node_t is an abstraction over routerstatus_t, routerinfo_t, and
microdesc_t. It should try to present a consistent interface to all
of them. There should be a node_t for a server whenever there is
* A routerinfo_t for it in the routerlist
* A routerstatus_t in the current_consensus.
(note that a microdesc_t alone isn't enough to make a node_t exist,
since microdescriptors aren't usable on their own.)
There are three ways to get a node_t right now: looking it up by ID,
looking it up by nickname, and iterating over the whole list of
microdescriptors.
All (or nearly all) functions that are supposed to return "a router"
-- especially those used in building connections and circuits --
should return a node_t, not a routerinfo_t or a routerstatus_t.
A node_t should hold all the *mutable* flags about a node. This
patch moves the is_foo flags from routerinfo_t into node_t. The
flags in routerstatus_t remain, but they get set from the consensus
and should not change.
Some other highlights of this patch are:
* Looking up routerinfo and routerstatus by nickname is now
unified and based on the "look up a node by nickname" function.
This tries to look only at the values from current consensus,
and not get confused by the routerinfo_t->is_named flag, which
could get set for other weird reasons. This changes the
behavior of how authorities (when acting as clients) deal with
nodes that have been listed by nickname.
* I tried not to artificially increase the size of the diff here
by moving functions around. As a result, some functions that
now operate on nodes are now in the wrong file -- they should
get moved to nodelist.c once this refactoring settles down.
This moving should happen as part of a patch that moves
functions AND NOTHING ELSE.
* Some old code is now left around inside #if 0/1 blocks, and
should get removed once I've verified that I don't want it
sitting around to see how we used to do things.
There are still some unimplemented functions: these are flagged
with "UNIMPLEMENTED_NODELIST()." I'll work on filling in the
implementation here, piece by piece.
I wish this patch could have been smaller, but there did not seem to
be any piece of it that was independent from the rest. Moving flags
forces many functions that once returned routerinfo_t * to return
node_t *, which forces their friends to change, and so on.
In the first 100 circuits, our timeout_ms and close_ms
are the same. So we shouldn't transition circuits to purpose
CIRCUIT_PURPOSE_C_MEASURE_TIMEOUT, since they will just timeout again
next time we check.
Rechecking the timeout condition was foolish, because it is checked on the
same codepath. It was also wrong, because we didn't round.
Also, the liveness check itself should be <, and not <=, because we only have
1 second resolution.
Specifically, a circ attempt that we'd launched while the network was
down could timeout after we've marked our entrynodes up, marking them
back down again. The fix is to annotate as bad the OR conns that were
around before we did the retry, so if a circuit that's attached to them
times out we don't do anything about it.
Many friendly operating systems have 64-bit times, and it's not nice
to pass them to an %ld format.
It's also extremely not-nice to write a time to the log as an
integer. Most people think it's 2010 June 29 23:57 UTC+epsilon, not
1277855805+epsilon.
We need to ensure that we close timeout measurement circuits. While
we're at it, we should close really old circuits of certain types that
aren't in use, and log really old circuits of other types.
We need to record different statistics at point of timeout, vs the point
of forcible closing.
Also, give some better names to constants and state file variables
to indicate they are not dealing with timeouts, but abandoned circuits.
This should prevent some asserts and storage of incorrect build times
for the cases where Tor is suspended during a circuit construction, or
just after completing a circuit. The idea is that if the circuit
build time is much greater than we would have cut it off at, we probably
had a suspend event along this codepath, and we should discard the
value.
Specifically, there are two cases: a) are we willing to start a new
circuit at a node not in your ExitNodes config option, and b) are we
willing to make use of a circuit that's already established but has an
unsuitable exit.
Now we discard all your circuits when you set ExitNodes, so the only
way you could end up with an exit circuit that ends at an unsuitable
place is if we explicitly ran out of exit nodes, StrictNodes was 0,
and we built this circuit to solve a stream that needs solving.
Fixes bug in dc322931, which would ignore the just-built circuit because
it has an unsuitable exit.
The new rule is: safe_str_X() means "this string is a piece of X
information; make it safe to log." safe_str() on its own means
"this string is a piece of who-knows-what; make it safe to log".
A) We were considering a circuit had timed out in the special cases
where we close rendezvous circuits because the final rendezvous
circuit couldn't be built in time.
B) We were looking at the wrong timestamp_created when considering
a timeout.
Don't discard all circuits every MaxCircuitDirtiness, because the
user might legitimately have set that to a very lower number.
Also don't use up all of our idle circuits with testing circuits,
since that defeats the point of preemptive circuits.
Using CircuitBuildTimeout is prone to issues with SIGHUP, etc.
Also, shuffle the circuit build times array after loading it
in so that newer measurements don't replace chunks of
similarly timed measurements.
We were telling the controller about CHECKING_REACHABILITY and
REACHABILITY_FAILED status events whenever we launch a testing
circuit or notice that one has failed. Instead, only tell the
controller when we want to inform the user of overall success or
overall failure. Bugfix on 0.1.2.6-alpha. Fixes bug 1075. Reported
by SwissTorExit.
Previously, when we had the chosen_exit set but marked optional, and
we failed because we couldn't find an onion key for it, we'd just give
up on the circuit. But what we really want to do is try again, without
the forced exit node.
Spotted by rovv. Another case of bug 752. I think this might be
unreachable in our current code, but proposal 158 could change that.

Initial conversion of uint32_t addr to tor_addr_t addr in connection_t and related types. Most of the Tor wire formats using these new types are in, but the code to generate and use it is not. This is a big patch. Let me know what it breaks for you.

Move n_addr, n_port, and n_conn_id_digest fields of circuit_t into a separately allocated extend_info_t. Saves 22 bytes per connected circuit_t on 32-bit platforms, and makes me more comfortable with using tor_addr_t in place of uint32_t n_addr.

If you have more than one bridge but don't know their keys,
you would only learn a request for the descriptor of the first one
on your list. (Tor considered launching requests for the others, but
found that it already had a connection on the way for $0000...0000
so it didn't open another.)
If you have more than one bridge but don't know their keys, and the
connection to one of the bridges failed, you would cancel all
pending bridge connections. (After all, they all have the same
digest.)
