OpenBSD removes this function, and now that Tor requires Libevent 2,
we should also support the OpenBSD Libevent 2.
Fixes bug 19904; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
To maintain precision, to get nanoseconds, we were multiplying our
tick count by a billion, then dividing by ticks-per-second. But
that apparently isn't such a great idea, since ticks-per-second is
sometimes a billion on its own, so our intermediate result was
giving us attoseconds.
When you're counting in attoseconds, you can only fit about 9
seconds into an int64_t, which is not so great for our purposes.
Instead, we now simplify the 1000000000/1000000000 fraction before
we start messing with nanoseconds. This has potential to mess us
up if some future MS version declares that performance counters will
use 1,000,000,007 units per second, but let's burn that bridge when
we come to it.
* Raise limit: 16k isn't all that high.
* Don't log when limit exceded; log later on.
* Say "over" when we log more than we say we log.
* Add target version to changes file
This code uses QueryPerformanceCounter() [**] on Windows,
mach_absolute_time() on OSX, clock_gettime() where available, and
gettimeofday() [*] elsewhere.
Timer types are stored in an opaque OS-specific format; the only
supported operation is to compute the difference between two timers.
[*] As you know, gettimeofday() isn't monotonic, so we include
a simple ratchet function to ensure that it only moves forward.
[**] As you may not know, QueryPerformanceCounter() isn't actually
always as monotonic as you might like it to be, so we ratchet that
one too.
We also include a "coarse monotonic timer" for cases where we don't
actually need high-resolution time. This is GetTickCount{,64}() on
Windows, clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE) on Linux, and falls
back to regular monotonic time elsewhere.
If we did not find a non-private IPaddress by iterating over interfaces,
we would try to get one via
get_interface_address6_via_udp_socket_hack(). This opens a datagram
socket with IPPROTO_UDP. Previously all our datagram sockets (via
libevent) used IPPROTO_IP, so we did not have that in the sandboxing
whitelist. Add (SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_UDP) sockets to the sandboxing
whitelist. Fixes bug 19660.
We introduded a shadowed variable, thereby causing a log message to
be wrong. Fixes 19578. I believe the bug was introduced by
54d7d31cba in 0.2.2.29-beta.
I grepped and hand-inspected the "it's" instances, to see if any
were supposed to be possessive. While doing that, I found a
"the the", so I grepped to see if there were any more.
Only some very ancient distributions don't ship with Libevent 2 anymore,
even the oldest supported Ubuntu LTS version has it. This allows us to
get rid of a lot of compat code.
Validate that tv_usec inputs to tv_udiff and tv_mdiff are in range.
Do internal calculations in tv_udiff and tv_mdiff in 64-bit,
which makes the function less prone to integer overflow,
particularly on platforms where long and time_t are 32-bit,
but tv_sec is 64-bit, like some BSD configurations.
Check every addition and subtraction that could overflow.
Make sure to memset(0) the destination buffer so we don't leave any
uninitialized data.

base16_decodes() now returns the number of decoded bytes. It's interface
changes from returning a "int" to a "ssize_t". Every callsite now checks the
returned value.

realloc()ing a thing in order to try to save memory on it just
doesn't make sense with today's allocators. Instead, let's use the
fact that whenever we decompress something, either it isn't too big,
or we chop it up, or we reallocate it.
zlib 1.2 came out in 2003; earlier versions should be dead by now.
Our workaround code was only preventing us from using the gzip
encoding (if we decide to do so), and having some dead code linger
around in torgzip.c
The Autoconf macro AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS defines preprocessor macros
which turn on extensions to C and POSIX. The macro also makes it easier
for developers to use the extensions without needing (or forgetting) to
define them manually.
The macro can be safely used because it was introduced in Autoconf 2.60
and Tor requires Autoconf 2.63 and above.
There's accessors to get at things, but it ends up being rather
cumbersome. The only place where behavior should change is that the
code will fail instead of attempting to generate a new DH key if our
internal sanity check fails.
Like the previous commit, this probably breaks snapshots prior to pre5.
