When get_proxy_addrport returned PROXY_NONE, it would leave
addr/port unset. This is inconsistent, and could (if we used the
function in a stupid way) lead to undefined behavior. Bugfix on
5b050a9b0, though I don't think it affects tor-as-it-is.
Fixes a possible root cause of 11553 by only making 64 attempts at
most to pick a circuitID. Previously, we would test every possible
circuit ID until we found one or ran out.
This algorithm succeeds probabilistically. As the comment says:
This potentially causes us to give up early if our circuit ID
space is nearly full. If we have N circuit IDs in use, then we
will reject a new circuit with probability (N / max_range) ^
MAX_CIRCID_ATTEMPTS. This means that in practice, a few percent
of our circuit ID capacity will go unused.
The alternative here, though, is to do a linear search over the
whole circuit ID space every time we extend a circuit, which is
not so great either.
This makes new vs old clients distinguishable, so we should try to
batch it with other patches that do that, like 11438.
I'm doing this because:
* User doesn't mean you're running as root, and running as root
doesn't mean you've set User.
* It's possible that the user has done some other
capability-based hack to retain the necessary privileges.
Fall back to SOMAXCONN if INT_MAX doesn't work.
We'd like to do this because the actual maximum is overrideable by the
kernel, and the value in the header file might not be right at all.
All implementations I can find out about claim that this is supported.
Fix for 9716; bugfix on every Tor.
Previously we would accept relative paths, but only if they contained a
slash somewhere (not at the end).
Otherwise we would silently not work. Closes: #9258. Bugfix on
0.2.3.16-alpha.
- Rename n_read and n_written in origin_circuit_t to make it clear that
these are only used for CIRC_BW events.
- Extract new code in control_update_global_event_mask to new
clear_circ_bw_fields function.
- Avoid control_event_refill_global function with 13 arguments and
increase code reuse factor by moving more code from control.c to
connection.c.
- Avoid an unsafe uint32_t -> int cast.
- Add TestingEnableTbEmptyEvent option.
- Prepare functions for testing.
- Rename a few functions and improve documentation.
