This feature should help programs that want to launch and manage a
Tor process, as well as programs that want to launch and manage a
Tor instance in a separate thread. Right now, they have to open a
controlport, and then connect to it, with attendant authentication
issues. This feature allows them to just start with an
authenticated connection.
Bug 23900.
Stop attempting to unconditionally mirror the tor repository in GitLab
CI. This prevented developers from enabling GitLab CI on master
because the "update" job would attempt to run, causing an unuseful CI
failure. Fixes bug 23755.
Skip test_config_include_no_permission() when running as root, because
it will get an unexpected success from config_get_lines_include().
This affects some continuous integration setups. Fixes bug 23758.
Add more explanation in doc/HACKING about how to read gcov output,
including a reference to the gcov documentation in the GCC manual.
Also add details about how our postprocessing scripts modify gcov
output.
When we added HTTPTunnelPort, the answer that we give when you try
to use your SOCKSPort as an HTTP proxy became wrong. Now we explain
that Tor sorta _is_ an HTTP proxy, but a SOCKSPort isn't.
I have left the status line the same, in case anything is depending
on it. I have removed the extra padding for Internet Explorer,
since the message is well over 512 bytes without it.
Fixes bug 23678; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
Because our monotonic time interface doesn't play well with value set to 0,
always initialize to now() the scheduler_last_run at init() of the KIST
scheduler.

When a channel is scheduled and flush cells returns 0 that is no cells to
flush, we flag it back in waiting for cells so it doesn't get stuck in a
possible infinite loop.
It has been observed on moria1 where a closed channel end up in the scheduler
where the flush process returned 0 cells but it was ultimately kept in the
scheduling loop forever. We suspect that this is due to a more deeper problem
in tor where the channel_more_to_flush() is actually looking at the wrong
queue and was returning 1 for an empty channel thus putting the channel in the
"Case 4" of the scheduler which is to go back in pending state thus
re-considered at the next iteration.
This is a fix that allows the KIST scheduler to recover properly from a not
entirelly diagnosed problem in tor.

When we added single_conn_free_bytes(), we cleared the outbuf on a
connection without setting outbuf_flushlen() to 0. This could cause
an assertion failure later on in flush_buf().
Fixes bug 23690; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha.
This caused a BUG log when we noticed that the circuit had no
channel. The likeliest culprit for exposing that behavior is
d769cab3e5, where we made circuit_mark_for_close() NULL out
the n_chan and p_chan fields of the circuit.
Fixes bug 8185; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha, I think.
My current theory is that this is just a marked circuit that hasn't
closed yet, but let's gather more information in case that theory is
wrong.
Diagnostic for 8185.
This patch ensures that we return TOR_COMPRESS_BUFFER_FULL in case we
have a input bytes left to process, but are out of output buffer or in
case we need to finish where the compression implementation might need
to write an epilogue.
