Removing a ".auth" file revokes a client access to the service but the
rendezvous circuit is not closed service side because the service simply
doesn't know which circuit is for which client.
This commit notes in the man page that to fully revoke a client access to the
service, the tor process should be restarted.

The DormantClientTimeout option controls how long Tor will wait before
going dormant. It also provides a way to disable the feature by setting
DormantClientTimeout to e.g. "50 years".
The DormantTimeoutDisabledByIdleStreams option controls whether open but
inactive streams count as "client activity". To implement it, I had to
make it so that reading or writing on a client stream *always* counts as
activity.
Closes ticket 28429.
This updateVersions.pl script was one of the only essential perl
scripts left in out maint system, and was the only one that used
autoconf to fill in the script.
This script adds a feature to define an APPROX_RELEASE_DATE macro
that is updated when the version changes. We'll use this to
implement prop297, so that we have an accurate view of when a
release date happens.
By adding a file to the ClientOnionAuthDir and sending a HUP signal, tor would
load the new file and use it. However, that doesn't work with the Sandbox
since post initilization, nothing can be changed.
Document in the manpage that limitation within the Sandbox description.

Since the default cache directory is the same as the default data
directory, we don't want the default CacheDirectoryGroupReadable
value (0) to override an explicitly set "DataDirectoryGroupReadable
1".
To fix this, I'm making CacheDirectoryGroupReadable into an
autobool, and having the default (auto) value mean "Use the value of
DataDirectoryGroupReadable if the directories are the same, and 0
otherwise."
Fixes bug 26913; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha when the CacheDirectory
option was introduced.
This patch changes HiddenServiceExportCircuitID so instead of being a
boolean it takes a string, which is the protocol. Currently only the
'haproxy' protocol is defined.

In 24765, we said that we supported rust stable in CodingStandardsRust.md.
But we left GettingStartedRust.md saying that we support rust nightly.
Closes 27160.
This is a very gentle commit that just lays the groundwork in the
build system: it puts the include files to build libtor-app.a into
src/core, and to build the tor executable into src/app. The
executable is now "src/app/tor".
Stop saying in the manual that clients cache ipv4 dns answers from exit
relays. We haven't used them since 0.2.6.3-alpha, and in ticket 24050
we stopped even caching them as of 0.3.2.6-alpha, but we forgot to say
so in the man page.
Fixes bug 26052; bugfix on 0.3.2.6-alpha.
Apart from adding the newly created Module.md, this commit also adds all the
missing files we have in HACKING/ to the EXTRA_DIST.

Now that we update our buckets on demand before reading or writing,
we no longer need to update them all every TokenBucketRefillInterval
msec.
When a connection runs out of bandwidth, we do need a way to
reenable it, however. We do this by scheduling a timer to reenable
all blocked connections for TokenBucketRefillInterval msec after a
connection becomes blocked.
(If we were using PerConnBWRate more, it might make sense to have a
per-connection timer, rather than a single timeout. But since
PerConnBWRate is currently (mostly) unused, I'm going to go for the
simpler approach here, since usually whenever one connection has
become blocked on bandwidth, most connections are blocked on
bandwidth.)
Implements ticket 25373.
Add to the Denial of Service section of the man page an explanation about the
three different mitigation Tor has.
Fixes#25248.
