The memleak was occuring because of the way ExcludeNodes is handled in
that function. Basically, we were putting excluded intro points extend
infos in a special variable which was never freed. Also, if there were
multiple excluded intro points then that variable was overwritten
everytime leaking more memory. This commit should fix both issues.
This commit adds a pretty advanced test for the client-side making sure that
picking intro is done properly.
This unittest also reveals a memleak on the client_pick_intro() function which
is fixed by the subsequent commit.

Directory servers now include a "Date:" http header for response
codes other than 200. Clients starting with a skewed clock and a
recent consensus were getting "304 Not modified" responses from
directory authorities, so without a Date header the client would
never hear about a wrong clock.
Fixes bug 23499; bugfix on 0.0.8rc1.
We enrich the test_client_cache() test in two ways:
a) We check that transitioning time periods also cleans up expired
descriptors in client memory.
b) We test hs_cache_lookup_as_client() instead of
lookup_v3_desc_as_client(). The former is a higher level function
which calls the latter and allows us to test deeper into the
subsystem.
In #23466 we discovered that cached descriptors can stay around on the
client-side for up to 72 hours. In reality we only want those descs to
get cached for the duration of the current time period, since after that
TP is gone the client needs to compute a new blinded key to use for the HS.
In this commit we start using the consensus time (if available) when
cleaning up cached client descriptor entries. That makes sense because
the client uses consensus time anyway for connecting to hidden
services (e.g. computing blinded keys and time periods).
If no recent consensus is available, we consider descriptors to be
expired since we will want to fetch new ones when we get a live
consensus to avoid the Roger bug. If we didn't do that, when Roger
desuspends his laptop there would be a race between Tor fetching a new
consensus, and Tor connecting to the HS which would still cause
reachability issues.
We also turned a rev counter check into a BUG, since we should never
receive a descriptor with a strictly smaller rev counter than the one we
already have, except if there is a bug or if the HSDir wants to mess
with us. In any case, let's turn this into a BUG so that we can detect
and debug such cases easily.
This change refactors find_dl_schedule() to only call dependent functions
as needed. In particular, directory_fetches_from_authorities() only needs
to be called on clients.
Stopping spurious directory_fetches_from_authorities() calls on every
download on public relays has the following impacts:
* fewer address resolution attempts, particularly those mentioned in 21789
* fewer descriptor rebuilds
* fewer log messages, particularly those limited in 20610

But when clients are just starting, make them try each bridge a few times
before giving up on it.
These changes make the bridge download schedules more explicit: before
17750, they relied on undocumented behaviour and specific schedule
entries. (And between 17750 and this fix, they were broken.)
Fixes 23347, not in any released version of tor.
We were always incrementing bridge download statuses on each attempt,
but we were using the "increment on failure" functions to do it.
And we never incremented them on failure.
No behaviour change.
The download schedule tells Tor to wait 15 minutes before downloading
bridge descriptors. But 17750 made Tor ignore that and start immediately.
Since we fixed 17750, Tor waits 15 minutes for bridge client bootstrap,
like the schedule says.
This fixes the download schedule to start immediately, and to try each
bridge 3 times in the first 30 seconds. This should make bridge bootstraps
more reliable.
Fixes 23347.
It is possible that two descriptor upload requests are launched in a very
short time frame which can lead to the second request finishing before the
first one and where that first one will make the HSDir send back a 400
malformed descriptor leading to a warning.
To avoid such, cancel all active directory connections for the specific
descriptor we are about to upload.
Note that this race is still possible on the HSDir side which triggers a log
info to be printed out but that is fine.

This test is important because it tests that upload_descriptor_to_all()
is in synch with pick_hsdir_v3(). That's not the case for the
reachability test which just compares the responsible hsdir sets.
There was a bug in upload_descriptor_to_all() where we picked between
first and second hsdir index based on which time segment we are. That's
not right and instead we should be uploading our two descriptors using a
different hsdir index every time. That is, upload first descriptor using
first hsdir index, and upload second descriptor using second hdsir index.
Also simplify stuff in pick_hdsir_v3() since that's only used to fetch
descriptors and hence we can just always use the fetch hsdir index.
Because of the latest changes on when we rotate, longer lifetime of
descriptors and no more overlap period, the tests needed to be improved to

Because of #23387, we've realized that there is one scenario that makes
the client unable to reach the service because of a desynch in the time
period used. The scenario is as follows:
+------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| 00:00 12:00 00:00 12:00 00:00 12:00 |
| SRV#1 TP#1 SRV#2 TP#2 SRV#3 TP#3 |
| |
| $==========|-----------$===========|-----------$===========| |
| ^ ^ |
| C S |
+------------------------------------------------------------------+
In this scenario the HS has a newer consensus than the client, and the
HS just moved to the next TP but the client is still stuck on the old
one. However, the service is not in any sort of overlap mode so it
doesn't cover the old TP anymore, so the client is unable to fetch a
descriptor.
We've decided to solve this by extending the concept of overlap period
to be permanent so that the service always publishes two descriptors and
aims to cover clients with both older and newer consensuses. See the
spec patch in #23387 for more details.
Based on our #23387 findings, it seems like to maintain 24/7
reachability we need to employ different logic when computing hsdir
indices for fetching vs storing. That's to guarantee that the client
will always fetch the current descriptor, while the service will always
publish two descriptors aiming to cover all possible edge cases.
For more details see the next commit and the spec branch.

By convention, a function that frobs a foo_t should be called
foo_frob, and it should have a foo_t * as its first argument. But
for many of the buf_t functions, the buf_t was the final argument,
which is silly.
Our convention is that functions which manipulate a type T should be
named T_foo. But the buffer functions were super old, and followed
all kinds of conventions. Now they're uniform.
Here's the perl I used to do this:
\#!/usr/bin/perl -w -i -p

This fixes a serious bug in our hsdir set change logic:
We used to add nodes in the list of previous hsdirs everytime we
uploaded to a new hsdir and we only cleared the list when we built a new
descriptor. This means that our prev_hsdirs list could end up with 7
hsdirs, if for some reason we ended up uploading our desc to 7 hsdirs
before rebuilding our descriptor (e.g. this can happen if the set of
hsdirs changed).
After our previous hdsir set had 7 nodes, then our old algorithm would
always think that the set has changed since it was comparing a smartlist
with 7 elements against a smartlist with 6 elements.
This commit fixes this bug, by clearning the prev_hsdirs list before we
upload to all hsdirs. This makes sure that our prev_hsdirs list always
contains the latest hsdirs!
Our logic for detecting hsdir set changes was needlessly compicated: we
had to sort smartlists and compare them.
Instead, we can simplify things by employing the following logic:
"We should reupload our descriptor if the latest HSDir set contains
nodes that were not previously there"
Since we can't be sure that we can unlink enough files on windows
here, let's let the number of permitted entries grow huge if it
really must.
We do this by letting the storagedir hold lots of entries, but still
trying to keep the number of entries under the configured limit. We
also have to tell consdiffmgr not to freak out if it can't actually
remove enough entries.
Part of a fix for bug 22752
Some parentheses were missing making the rend_max_intro_circs_per_period()
return a lower value than it was suppose to.
The calculation is that a service at most will open a number of intro points
that it wants which is 3 by default or HiddenServiceNumIntroductionPoints. Two
extra are launched for performance reason. Finally, this can happen twice for
two descriptors for the current and next time period.
From:
2 * n_intro_wanted + 2
...which resulted in 8 for 3 intro points, this commit fixes it to:
(n_intro_wanted + 2) * 2
... resulting in 12 possible intro point circuit which is the correct maximum
intro circuit allowed per period.
Last, this commit rate limits the the log message if we ever go above that
limit else over a INTRO_CIRC_RETRY_PERIOD, we can print it often!

That check was wrong:
a) We should be making sure that the size of `key` is big enough before
proceeding, since that's the buffer that we would overread with the
tor_memeq() below.
The old check used to check that `req_key_str` is big enough which is
not right, since we won't read deep into that buffer.
The new check makes sure that `key` has enough size to survive the
tor_memeq(), and if not it moves to the next element of the strmap.
b) That check shouldn't be a BUG since that strmap contains
variable-sized elements and we should not be bugging out if we happen
to compare a small sized element (v2) to a bigger one (v3).

We refactor the descriptor reupload logic to be similar to the v2 logic
where we update a global 'consider_republishing_rend_descriptors' flag
and then we use that to check for hash ring changes during the global
hidden service callbacks.
This fixes bugs where we would inspect the hash ring immediately as we
receive new dirinfo (e.g. consensus) but before running the hidden
service housekeeping events. That was leaving us in an inconsistent
state wrt hsdir indices and causing bugs all around.
The problem was that when we went from overlap mode to non-overlap mode,
we were not wiping the 'desc_next' descriptor and instead we left it on
the service. This meant that all functions that iterated service
descriptors were also inspecting the useless 'desc_next' descriptor that
should have been deleted.
This commit refactors rotate_all_descriptors() so that it rotates
descriptor both when entering overlap mode and also when leaving it.
