Changes in version 0.4.4.2-alpha - 2020-07-??
This is the second alpha release in the 0.4.4.x series. It fixes a few
bugs in the previous release, and solves a few usability,
compatibility, and portability issues.
o Minor features (bootstrap reporting):
- Report more detailed reasons for bootstrap failure when the
failure happens due to a TLS error. Previously we would just call
these errors "MISC" when they happened during read, and "DONE"
when they happened during any other TLS operation. Closes
ticket 32622.
o Minor features (directory authority):
- Authorities now recommend the protocol versions that are supported
by Tor 0.3.5 and later. (Earlier versions of Tor have been
deprecated since January of this year.) This recommendation will
cause older clients and relays to give a warning on startup, or
when they download a consensus directory. Closes ticket 32696.
o Minor features (entry guards):
- Reinstate support for GUARD NEW/UP/DOWN control port events.
Closes ticket 40001.
o Minor features (linux seccomp2 sandbox, portability):
- Allow Tor to build on platforms where it doesn't know how to
report which syscall had caused the linux seccomp2 sandbox to
fail. This change should make the sandbox code more portable to
less common Linux architectures. Closes ticket 34382.
- Permit the unlinkat() syscall, which some Libc implementations use
to implement unlink(). Closes ticket 33346.
o Minor bugfixes (control port, onion service):
- Consistently use 'address' in "Invalid v3 address" response to
ONION_CLIENT_AUTH commands. Fixes bug 40005; bugfix
on 0.4.3.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (logging):
- Downgrade a noisy log message that could occur naturally when
receiving an extrainfo document that we no longer want. Fixes bug
16016; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha.
o Deprecated features (onion service v2):
- Add deprecation warning for version 2 onion services. Tor now logs
a warning when version 2 service is configured. Closes
ticket 40003.
