For 23847, we want Tor to be able to shut down and then restart in the same process. Here's a patch to make the Tor binary do that. To test it, you need to build with --enable-restart-debugging, and then you need to set the environment variable TOR_DEBUG_RESTART. With this option, Tor will then run for 5 seconds, then restart itself in-process without exiting. This only happens once. You can change the 5-second interval using TOR_DEBUG_RESTART_AFTER_SECONDS. Implements ticket 24583.

o Minor features (testing, debugging):
|
|
- For development purposes, Tor now has a mode in which it runs
|
|
for a few seconds, then stops, and starts again without exiting
|
|
the process. This mode is meant to help us debug various issues
|
|
with ticket 23847. To use this feature, compile with
|
|
--enable-restart-degbugging, and set the TOR_DEBUG_RESTART
|
|
environment variable. This is expected to crash a lot, and is
|
|
really meant for developers only. It will likely be removed in a future
|
|
release. Implements ticket 24583.
