It sure is a good thing we can run each test in its own process, or
else the amount of setup I needed to do to make this thing work
would have broken all the other tests.
Test mocking would have made this easier to write too.
Now we can compute the hash and signature of a dirobj before
concatenating the smartlist, and we don't need to play silly games
with sigbuf and realloc any more.
This patch moves the measured_bw field and the has_measured_bw field
into vote_routerstatus_t, since only votes have 'Measured=XX' set on
their weight line.
I also added a new bw_is_unmeasured flag to routerstatus_t to
represent the Unmeasured=1 flag on a w line. Previously, I was using
has_measured_bw for this, which was quite incorrect: has_measured_bw
means that the measured_bw field is set, and it's probably a mistake
to have it serve double duty as meaning that 'baandwidth' represents a
measured value.
While making this change,I also found a harmless but stupid bug in
dirserv_read_measured_bandwidths: It assumes that it's getting a
smartlist of routerstatus_t, when really it's getting a smartlist of
vote_routerstatus_t. C's struct layout rules mean that we could never
actually get an error because of that, but it's still quite incorrect.
I fixed that, and in the process needed to add two more sorting and
searching helpers.
Finally, I made the Unmeasured=1 flag get parsed. We don't use it for
anything yet, but someday we might.
This isn't complete yet -- the new 2286 unit test doesn't build.
Instead of capping whenever a router has fewer than 3 measurements,
we cap whenever a router has fewer than 3 measurements *AND* there
are at least 3 authorities publishing measured bandwidths.
We also generate bandwidth lines with a new "Unmeasured=1" flag,
meaning that we didn't have enough observations for a node to use
measured bandwidth values in the authority's input, whether we capped
it or not.
Stop marking every relay as having been down for one hour every
time we restart a directory authority. These artificial downtimes
were messing with our Stable and Guard flag calculations.
Fixes bug 8218 (introduced by the fix for 1035). Bugfix on 0.2.2.23-alpha.
Relays used to check every 10 to 60 seconds, as an accidental side effect
of calling directory_fetches_from_authorities() when considering doing
a directory fetch. The fix for bug 1992 removes that side effect. At the
same time, bridge relays never had the side effect, leading to confused
bridge operators who tried crazy tricks to get their bridges to notice
IP address changes (see ticket 1913).
The new behavior is to reinstate an every-60-seconds check for both
public relays and bridge relays, now that the side effect is gone.
For example, we were doing a resolve every time we think about doing a
directory fetch. Now we reuse the cached answer in some cases.
Fixes bugs 1992 (bugfix on 0.2.0.20-rc) and 2410 (bugfix on
0.1.2.2-alpha).
