Commit e67f4441eb introduced a safeguard against
using an uninitialized voting schedule object. However, the dirvote_act() code
was looking roughly at the same thing to know if it had to compute the timings
before voting with this condition:
if (!voting_schedule.voting_starts) {
...
dirvote_recalculate_timing(options, now);
}
The sr_init() function is called very early and goes through the safeguard
thus the voting schedule is always initilized before the first vote.
That first vote is a crucial one because we need to have our voting schedule
aligned to the "now" time we are about to use for voting. Then, the schedule
is updated when we publish our consensus or/and when we set a new consensus.
From that point on, we only want to update the voting schedule through that
code flow.
This "created_on_demand" is indicating that the timings have been recalculated
on demand by another subsystem so if it is flagged, we know that we need to
ignore its values before voting.

dirvote_get_next_valid_after_time() is the only public function that uses the
voting schedule outside of the dirvote subsystem so if it is zeroed,
recalculate its timing if we can that is if a consensus exists.

Because the HS subsystem needs the voting schedule to compute time period, we
need all tor type to do that.

The exposed get_voting_schedule() allocates and return a new object everytime
it is called leading to an awful lot of memory allocation when getting the
start time of the current round which is done for each node in the consensus.

These statistics were largely ununsed, and kept track of statistical information
on things like how many time we had done TLS or how many signatures we had
verified. This information is largely not useful, and would only be logged
after receiving a SIGUSR1 signal (but only if the logging severity level was
less than LOG_INFO).
* FIXES#19871.
* REMOVES note_crypto_pk_op(), dump_pk_op(), and pk_op_counts from
src/or/rephist.c.
* REMOVES every external call to these functions.
This should be "impossible" without making a SHA1 collision, but
let's not keep the assumption that SHA1 collisions are super-hard.
This prevents another case related to 21278. There should be no
behavioral change unless -ftrapv is on.

(Despite the increased size of the consensus, this should have
approximately zero effect on the compressed consensus size, since
the "proto" line should be completely implied by the "v" line.)
This patch makes us retain the intermediate list of K=V entries for
the duration of computing our vote, and lets us use that list with
a new function in order to look up parameters before the consensus
is published.
We can't actually use this function yet because of #19011: our
existing code to do this doesn't actually work, and we'll need a new
consensus method to start using it.
Closes ticket #19012.
See ticket #19132 for the clang/llvm warning.
Since voting_schedule is a global static struct, it will be initialized
to zero even without explicitly initializing it with {0}.
This is what the C spec says:
If an object that has automatic storage duration is not initialized
explicitly, its value is indeterminate. If an object that has static
storage duration is not initialized explicitly, then:
— if it has pointer type, it is initialized to a null pointer;
— if it has arithmetic type, it is initialized to (positive or unsigned) zero;
— if it is an aggregate, every member is initialized (recursively) according to these rules;
— if it is a union, the first named member is initialized (recursively) according to these rules.
One of the last piece that parses the votes and consensus in order to update
our state and make decision for the SR values.
We need to inform the SR subsystem when we set the current consensus because
this can be called when loaded from file or downloaded from other authorities
or computed.
The voting schedule is used for the SR timings since we are bound to the
voting system.

This commit introduces two new files with their header.
"shared_random.c" contains basic functions to initialize the state and allow
commit decoding for the disk state to be able to parse them from disk.
"shared_random_state.c" contains everything that has to do with the state
for both our memory and disk. Lots of helper functions as well as a
mechanism to query the state in a synchronized way.

So, back long ago, XXX012 meant, "before Tor 0.1.2 is released, we
had better revisit this comment and fix it!"
But we have a huge pile of such comments accumulated for a large
number of released versions! Not cool.
So, here's what I tried to do:
* 0.2.9 and 0.2.8 are retained, since those are not yet released.
* XXX+ or XXX++ or XXX++++ or whatever means, "This one looks
quite important!"
* The others, after one-by-one examination, are downgraded to
plain old XXX. Which doesn't mean they aren't a problem -- just
that they cannot possibly be a release-blocking problem.
With the fix for #17150, I added a duplicate certificate here. Here
I remove the original location in 0.2.8. (I wouldn't want to do
that in 027, due to the amount of authority-voting-related code
drift.)
Closes 19073.
