Changes in version 0.2.9.5-rc - 2016-1?-??
Changes in version 0.2.9.5-alpha - 2016-11-07
Tor 0.2.9.5alpha fixes numerous bugs discovered in the previous alpha
version. We believe one or two probably remain, and we encourage
everyone to test this release.
o Major bugfixes (client performance):
- Clients now respond to new application stream requests immediately
when they arrive, rather than waiting up to one second before
starting to handle them. Fixes part of bug 19969; bugfix
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (client reliability):
- When Tor leaves standby because of a new application request, open
circuits as needed to serve that request. Previously, we would
potentially wait a very long time. Fixes part of bug 19969; bugfix
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (client, logging):
- Remove a BUG warning in circuit_pick_extend_handshake(). Instead,
assume all nodes support EXTEND2. Use ntor whenever a key is
available. Fixes bug 20472; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
- On DNSPort, stop logging a BUG warning on a failed hostname
lookup. Fixes bug 19869; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
- Fix implicit conversion warnings under OpenSSL 1.1. Fixes bug
20551; bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (relay):
- Work around a memory leak in OpenSSL 1.1 when encoding public
keys. Fixes bug 20553; bugfix on 0.0.2pre8.
- Avoid a small memory leak when informing worker threads about
rotated onion keys. Fixes bug 20401; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha.
- Do not try to parallelize workers more than 16x without the user
explicitly configuring us to do so, even if we do detect more than
16 CPU cores. Fixes bug 19968; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (testing):
- Avoid a unit test failure on systems with over 16 detectable CPU
cores. Fixes bug 19968; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
o Documentation:
- Clarify that setting HiddenServiceNonAnonymousMode requires you to
also set "SOCKSPort 0". Fixes bug 20487; bugfix on 0.2.9.3-alpha.
- Module-level documentation for several more modules. Closes
tickets 19287 and 19290.
