Without this patch, Tor wasn't sure whether it would be hibernating or
not, so it postponed opening listeners until after the privs had been
dropped. This doesn't work so well for low ports. Bug was introduced in
the fix for bug 2003. Fixes bug 4217, reported by Zax and katmagic.
Thanks!
One of its callers assumes a non-zero result indicates a permanent failure
(i.e. the current attempt to connect to this HS either has failed or is
doomed). The other caller only requires that this function's result
never equal -2.
Bug reported by Sebastian Hahn.
Change the default values for collecting directory request statistics and
inlcuding them in extra-info descriptors to 1.
Don't break if we are configured to collect directory request or entry
statistics and don't have a GeoIP database. Instead, print out a notice
and skip initializing the affected statistics code.
This is the cherry-picked 499661524b.
Previously Tor would always claim to have been given a hostname
by the client, while actually only verifying that the client
is using SOCKS4A or SOCKS5 with hostnames. Both protocol versions
allow IP addresses, too, in which case the log messages were wrong.
Fixes#4094.
Previously, we wouldn't refetch an HS's descriptor unless we didn't
have one at all. That was equivalent to refetching iff we didn't have
a usable one, but the next commit will make us keep some non-usable HS
descriptors around in our cache.
Code bugfix on the release that introduced the v2 HS directory system,
because rend_client_refetch_v2_renddesc's documentation comment should
have described what it actually did, not what its behaviour happened
to be equivalent to; no behaviour change in this commit.
Otherwise, we can wind up munging our reference counts if we set it in
the middle of loading the nodes. This happens because
nodelist_set_consensus() and microdesc_reload_cache() are both in the
business of adjusting microdescriptors' references.
we don't need to check whether we don't have enough guards right after
concluding that we do have enough.
slight efficiency fix suggested by an anonymous fellow on irc.
