We recently merged a circuit cell queue size safeguard. This commit adds the
number of killed circuits that have reached the limit to the DoS heartbeat. It
now looks like this:
[notice] DoS mitigation since startup: 0 circuits killed with too many
cells. 0 circuits rejected, 0 marked addresses. 0 connections closed. 0
single hop clients refused.
Second thing that this patch does. It makes tor always print the DoS
mitigation heartbeat line (for a relay) even though no DoS mitigation have
been enabled. The reason is because we now kill circuits that have too many
cells regardless on if it is enabled or not but also it will give the operator
a chance to learn what is enabled with the heartbeat instead of suddenly
appearing when it is enabled by let say the consensus.

This commit introduces the consensus parameter "circ_max_cell_queue_size"
which controls the maximum number of cells a circuit queue should have.
The default value is currently 50000 cells which is above what should be
expected but keeps us a margin of error for padding cells.
Related to this is #9072. Back in 0.2.4.14-alpha, we've removed that limit due
to a Guard discovery attack. Ticket #25226 details why we are putting back the
limit due to the memory pressure issue on relays.

In d1874b4339, we adjusted this check so that we insist on
using routerinfos for bridges. That's almost correct... but if we
have a bridge that is also a regular relay, then we should use
insist on its routerinfo when connecting to it as a bridge
(directly), and be willing to use its microdescriptor when
connecting to it elsewhere in our circuits.
This bug is a likely cause of some (all?) of the (exit_ei == NULL)
failures we've been seeing.
Fixes bug 25691; bugfix on 0.3.3.4-alpha
This patch changes the algorithm of compute_real_max_mem_in_queues() to
use 0.4 * RAM iff the system has more than or equal to 8 GB of RAM, but
will continue to use the old value of 0.75 * RAM if the system have less
than * GB of RAM available.
This patch also adds tests for compute_real_max_mem_in_queues().

This patch lifts the list of default directory authorities from config.c
into their own auth_dirs.inc file, which is then included in config.c
using the C preprocessor.

Next commit is addressing the circuit queue cell limit so cleanup before doing
anything else.

Previously, if "Link=1-5" was supported, and you asked protover_all_supported()
(or protover::all_supported() in Rust) if it supported "Link=3-999", the C
version would return "Link=3-999" and the Rust would return "Link=6-999". These
both behave the same now, i.e. both return "Link=6-999".
Directory authorities no longer vote in favor of the Guard flag
for relays that don't advertise directory support.
Starting in Tor 0.3.0.1-alpha, Tor clients have been avoiding using
such relays in the Guard position, leading to increasingly broken load
balancing for the 5%-or-so of Guards that don't advertise directory
support.
Fixes bug 22310; bugfix on 0.3.0.6.
Coverity found a null pointer reference in nodelist_add_microdesc().
This is almost certainly impossible assuming that the routerstatus_t
returned by router_get_consensus_status_by_descriptor_digest() always
corresponds to an entry in the nodelist. Fixes bug 25629.

This update is needed to make it consistent with the behavior of
node_awaiting_ipv6(), which doesn't believe in the addresses from
routerinfos unless it actually plans to use those routerinfos.
Fixes bug 25213; bugfix on b66b62fb75 in 0.3.3.1-alpha,
which tightened up the definition of node_awaiting_ipv6().
There was a nonfatal assertion in pathbias_should_count that would
trigger if onehop_tunnel was set, but the desired_path_length was
greater than 1. This patch fixes that. Fixes bug 24903; bugfix on
0.2.5.2-alpha.
Make sure we actually only report client channel to the geoip cache instead of
looking if it is a known relay. Looking if it is a known relay can be
unreliable because they come and go from the consensus.

Because of #25306 for which we are unable to reproduce nor understand how it
is possible, this commit removes the asserts() and BUG() on the missing
descriptors instead when rotating them.
This allows us to log more data on error but also to let tor recover
gracefully instead of dying.

This patch adds some additional logging to circuits_handle_oom() to give
us more information about which specific compression backend that is
using a certain amount of memory.

The C code and the rust code had different separate integer overflow
bugs here. That suggests that we're better off just forbidding this
pathological case.
Also, add tests for expected behavior on receiving a bad protocol
list in a consensus.
Fixes another part of 25249.
This one can only be exploited if you can generate a correctly
signed consensus, so it's not as bad as 25074.
Fixes bug 25251; also tracked as TROVE-2018-004.
In some cases we had checked for it, but in others we had not. One
of these cases could have been used to remotely cause
denial-of-service against directory authorities while they attempted
to vote.
Fixes TROVE-2018-001.
