A node_t is an abstraction over routerstatus_t, routerinfo_t, and
microdesc_t. It should try to present a consistent interface to all
of them. There should be a node_t for a server whenever there is
* A routerinfo_t for it in the routerlist
* A routerstatus_t in the current_consensus.
(note that a microdesc_t alone isn't enough to make a node_t exist,
since microdescriptors aren't usable on their own.)
There are three ways to get a node_t right now: looking it up by ID,
looking it up by nickname, and iterating over the whole list of
microdescriptors.
All (or nearly all) functions that are supposed to return "a router"
-- especially those used in building connections and circuits --
should return a node_t, not a routerinfo_t or a routerstatus_t.
A node_t should hold all the *mutable* flags about a node. This
patch moves the is_foo flags from routerinfo_t into node_t. The
flags in routerstatus_t remain, but they get set from the consensus
and should not change.
Some other highlights of this patch are:
* Looking up routerinfo and routerstatus by nickname is now
unified and based on the "look up a node by nickname" function.
This tries to look only at the values from current consensus,
and not get confused by the routerinfo_t->is_named flag, which
could get set for other weird reasons. This changes the
behavior of how authorities (when acting as clients) deal with
nodes that have been listed by nickname.
* I tried not to artificially increase the size of the diff here
by moving functions around. As a result, some functions that
now operate on nodes are now in the wrong file -- they should
get moved to nodelist.c once this refactoring settles down.
This moving should happen as part of a patch that moves
functions AND NOTHING ELSE.
* Some old code is now left around inside #if 0/1 blocks, and
should get removed once I've verified that I don't want it
sitting around to see how we used to do things.
There are still some unimplemented functions: these are flagged
with "UNIMPLEMENTED_NODELIST()." I'll work on filling in the
implementation here, piece by piece.
I wish this patch could have been smaller, but there did not seem to
be any piece of it that was independent from the rest. Moving flags
forces many functions that once returned routerinfo_t * to return
node_t *, which forces their friends to change, and so on.
The new rule is: safe_str_X() means "this string is a piece of X
information; make it safe to log." safe_str() on its own means
"this string is a piece of who-knows-what; make it safe to log".
Some *_free functions threw asserts when passed NULL. Now all of them
accept NULL as input and perform no action when called that way.
This gains us consistence for our free functions, and allows some
code simplifications where an explicit null check is no longer necessary.
See task 1114. The most plausible explanation for someone sending us weak
DH keys is that they experiment with their Tor code or implement a new Tor
client. Usually, we don't care about such events, especially not on warn
level. If we really care about someone not following the Tor protocol, we
can set ProtocolWarnings to 1.
Tor now reads the "circwindow" parameter out of the consensus,
and uses that value for its circuit package window rather than the
default of 1000 cells. Begins the implementation of proposal 168.
Fix an obscure bug where hidden services on 64-bit big-endian
systems might mis-read the timestamp in v3 introduce cells, and
refuse to connect back to the client. Discovered by "rotor".
Bugfix on 0.2.1.6-alpha.
When we used smartlist_free to free the list of succesful uploads
because we had succeeded in uploading everywhere, we did not actually
set the successful_uploads field to NULL, so later it would get freed
again in rend_service_descriptor_free. Fix for bug 948; bug
introduced in 0.2.1.6-alpha.

The subversion $Id$ fields made every commit force a rebuild of
whatever file got committed. They were not actually useful for
telling the version of Tor files in the wild.
svn:r17867
Hidden services start out building five intro circuits rather
than three, and when the first three finish they publish a service
descriptor using those. Now we publish our service descriptor much
faster after restart.
svn:r17110
Initial conversion of uint32_t addr to tor_addr_t addr in connection_t and related types. Most of the Tor wire formats using these new types are in, but the code to generate and use it is not. This is a big patch. Let me know what it breaks for you.
svn:r16435
Refactor the router_choose_random_node interface: any function with 10 parameters, most of which are boolean and one of which is unused, should get refactored like this.
svn:r16167
Patch from Christian Wilms: remove (HiddenService|Rend)(Exclude)?Nodes options. They never worked properly, and nobody seems to be using them. Resolves bug 754.
svn:r16144
Add new ExcludeExitNodes option. Also add a new routerset type to handle Exclude[Exit]Nodes. It is optimized for O(1) membership tests, so as to make choosing a random router run in O(N_routers) time instead of in O(N_routers*N_Excluded_Routers).
svn:r16061
Re-tune mempool parametes based on testing on peacetime: use smaller chuncks, free them a little more aggressively, and try very hard to concentrate allocations on fuller chunks. Also, lots of new documentation.
svn:r13484
As planned, rename networkstatus_vote_t to networkstatus_t, now that v3 networkstatuses are working and standard and v2 networkstatuses are obsolete.
svn:r13383
Refactor circuit_launch* functions to take a bitfield of flags rather than 4 separate nonconsecutive flags arguments. Also, note a possible but in circuit_find_to_cannibalize, which seems to be ignoring its purpose argument.
svn:r12948
Try to make hidden service directory lookup functions a bit more efficient: go for fewer O(n) operations, and look at the consensus rather than the routerinfo list.
svn:r12361
Tidy v2 hidden service descriptor format code: fix memory leaks, fix reference problems, note magic numbers, note questions, remove redundant checks, remove a possible stack smashing bug when encoding a descriptor with no protocols supported.
svn:r12255
Add some code to mitigate bug 393: Choose at random from multiple hidden service ports with the same virtport. This allows limited ad-hoc round-robining.
svn:r10398
Make all LD_BUG log messsages get prefixed with "Bug: ". Remove manually-generated "Bug: "s from log-messages. (Apparently, we remembered to add them about 40% of the time.)
svn:r9733
Fix bug 338: log verbose nicknames, not just keys, for intro points. Also, suppress intro point name logging when SafeLogging is 1. (The security part is a possible backport candidate.)
svn:r9041
Apply patch from Mike Perry: add more reasons for circuit destroys. (Slightly tweaked to avoid allocating a number for an "internal" reason.)
svn:r8739
Touch up last patch (to add REASON to CIRC events): make some reasons
more sensible, send reasons only to controllers that have enabled
extended events, and clean up whitespace.
svn:r8672
Disprefer exit nodes for entry, middle positions (fixes bug 200). Also, switch to using a uint64_t to hold "total bandwidth for all nodes" under consideration; crypt_rand_int would have died at 2GB/s network capacity.
svn:r8571
Refactor connection_t into edge, or, dir, control, and base subtypes. This might save some RAM on busy exit servers, but really matters most in terms of correctness.
svn:r6906
No circuit can be both an intro point and a rend point, so we can merge both the cookie and the pk digest into one "rend_token" field for or circuits. This saves another 20 bytes per or circuit.
svn:r6904
circuit_t into origin_circuit_t and or_circuit_t. I fixed some
segaults; there may be more. We still need to move more rendezvous
stuff into subtypes.
This is a trial run for splitting up connection_t; if the approach is
insane, please say so soon so we can do something smarter.
Also, this discards the old HALF_OPEN code, which nobody seems to
want.
svn:r6817
FetchServerDescriptors and FetchHidServDescriptors for whether
to fetch server info and hidserv info or let the controller do it,
and also PublishServerDescriptor and PublishHidServDescriptors.
Add AllDirActionsPrivate undocumented option -- if you set it, you'll
need the controller to bootstrap you enough to build your first circuits.
svn:r6047
picking entry guards, rather than looking at is_fast or is_stable.
Now dirservers can change how they define it and clients will
automatically use their new definition.

we screwed up the formatting in wild and unpredictable ways.
fix it before it becomes convention to format logs in wild and
unpredictable ways.
still need to do src/common/ someday.

separately. It's important to keep them separate because internal
circuits have their last hops picked like middle hops, rather than like
exit hops. So exiting on them will break the user's expectations.
- Stop cannibalizing internal circuits for general exits, and stop
cannibalizing exit circuits for rendezvous stuff.
- Don't let new exit streams attach to internal circuits.
- When deciding if we have enough circuits for internal and for exit,
don't count the wrong ones.
- Treat predicted resolves as predicted port 80 exits.
