First I began with a set of candidates:
The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.2.9-stable through current
master.
The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current
master.
Everybody's _recommended_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current master.
Then I removed the protocol versions that we do not actually want to
require or recommend:
DirCache=1 (deprecated)
HSDir=1, HSIntro=1-3, HSRend=1 (deprecated)
(All HS* protocol requirements for clients)
Link=1-3 (deprecated)
LinkAuth=1 (obsolete)
Relay=1 (obsolete)
Make it possible to specify multiple ConsensusParams torrc
lines.
Now directory authority operators can for example put the
main ConsensusParams config in one torrc file and then add to it
from a different torrc file.
Closes ticket 40164.
When calling `circpad_send_padding_cell_for_callback()`, the flag
`is_padding_timer_scheduled` was not resetted to 0 which caused an issue
in the circpad simulator.
This commit fixes this problem.
Fixes#32671.
Cons=1 is the old format of consensuses, without ed25519 keys. It
is no longer required or recommended.
Cons=2 is the new format of consensuses, with ed25519 keys. It
is now required.
(Similarly for Desc=1,2 and Microdesc=1,2)
No supported client or relay versions should be affected by this
change, since these versions are supported by clients and relays
running 0.2.9 and later. It will only take effect once enough
authorities vote for it.
Closes ticket 40162.
In brief: we go through a lot of gymnastics to handle huge protover
numbers, but after years of development we're not even close to 10
for any of our current versions. We also have a convenient
workaround available in case we ever run out of protocols: if (for
example) we someday need Link=64, we can just add Link2=0 or
something.
This patch is a minimal patch to change tor's behavior; it doesn't
take advantage of the new restrictions.
Implements #40133 and proposal 318.
Tor has a feature to preserve unrecognized state file entries in
order to maintain forward compatibility. But this feature, along
with some unused code that we never actually removed, led to us
keeping items that were of no use to the user, other than at worst
to preserve ancient information about them.
This commit adds a feature to remove obsolete entries when we load
the file.
Closes ticket 40137.
If at least one service is configured as a version 2, a log warning is emitted
once and only once.
Closes#40003
