Now that we update our buckets on demand before reading or writing,
we no longer need to update them all every TokenBucketRefillInterval
msec.
When a connection runs out of bandwidth, we do need a way to
reenable it, however. We do this by scheduling a timer to reenable
all blocked connections for TokenBucketRefillInterval msec after a
connection becomes blocked.
(If we were using PerConnBWRate more, it might make sense to have a
per-connection timer, rather than a single timeout. But since
PerConnBWRate is currently (mostly) unused, I'm going to go for the
simpler approach here, since usually whenever one connection has
become blocked on bandwidth, most connections are blocked on
bandwidth.)
Implements ticket 25373.
We used to do this 10x per second in connection_buckets_refill();
instead, we now do it when the bucket becomes empty. This change is
part of the work of making connection_buckets_refill() obsolete.
Closes ticket 25828; bugfix on 0.2.3.5-alpha.
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.

When a relay is collecting internal statistics about how many
create cell requests it has seen of each type, accurately count the
requests from relays that temporarily fall out of the consensus.
(To be extra conservative, we were already ignoring requests from clients
in our counts, and we continue ignoring them here.)
Fixes bug 24910; bugfix on 0.2.4.17-rc.
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.
