this was causing directory authorities to send a time of 0 on all
connections they generated themselves, which means everybody reachability
test caused a time skew warning in the log for that relay.
(i didn't just revert, because the changes file has been modified by
other later commits.)
This isn't actually much of an issue, since only relays send
AUTHENTICATE cells, but while we're removing timestamps, we might as
well do this too.
Part of proposal 222. I didn't take the approach in the proposal of
using a time-based HMAC, since that was a bad-prng-mitigation hack
from SSL3, and in real life, if you don't have a good RNG, you're
hopeless as a Tor server.
For now, round down to the nearest 10 minutes. Later, eliminate entirely by
setting a consensus parameter.
(This rounding is safe because, in 0.2.2, where the timestamp mattered,
REND_REPLAY_TIME_INTERVAL was a nice generous 60 minutes.)
tor_malloc returns void *; in C, it is not necessary to cast a
void* to another pointer type before assigning it.
tor_malloc fails with an error rather than returning NULL; it's not
necessary to check its output. (In one case, doing so annoyed Coverity.)
Whenever we had an non-option commandline arguments *and*
option-bearing commandline arguments on the commandline, we would save
only the latter across invocations of options_init_from_torrc, but
take their existence as license not to re-parse the former. Yuck!
Incidentally, this fix lets us throw away the backup_arg[gv] logic.
Fix for bug 9746; bugfix on d98dfb3746,
not in any released Tor. Found by Damian. Thanks, Damian!
This just goes to show: never cast a function pointer. Found while
testing new command line parse logic.
Bugfix on 1293835440, which implemented
6752: Not in any released tor.
Fall back to SOMAXCONN if INT_MAX doesn't work.
We'd like to do this because the actual maximum is overrideable by the
kernel, and the value in the header file might not be right at all.
All implementations I can find out about claim that this is supported.
Fix for 9716; bugfix on every Tor.
