Allow clients to use optimistic data when connecting to a hidden service,
which should cut out the initial round-trip for client-side programs
including Tor Browser.
(Now that Tor 0.2.2.x is obsolete, all hidden services should support
server-side optimistic data.)
See proposal 181 for details. Implements ticket 13211.
Clients are now willing to send optimistic circuit data (before they
receive a 'connected' cell) to relays of any version. We used to
only do it for relays running 0.2.3.1-alpha or later, but now all
relays are new enough.
Resolves ticket 13153.
Return an error when the second or later arguments of the
"setevents" controller command are invalid events. Previously we
would return success while silently skipping invalid events.
Fixes bug 13205; bugfix on 0.2.3.2-alpha. Reported by "fpxnns".
Stop modifying the value of our DirReqStatistics torrc option just
because we're not a bridge or relay. This bug was causing Tor
Browser users to write "DirReqStatistics 0" in their torrc files
as if they had chosen to change the config.
Fixes bug 4244; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Clients now send the correct address for their chosen rendezvous point
when trying to access a hidden service. They used to send the wrong
address, which would still work some of the time because they also
sent the identity digest of the rendezvous point, and if the hidden
service happened to try connecting to the rendezvous point from a relay
that already had a connection open to it, the relay would reuse that
connection. Now connections to hidden services should be more robust
and faster. Also, this bug meant that clients were leaking to the hidden
service whether they were on a little-endian (common) or big-endian (rare)
system, which for some users might have reduced their anonymity.
Fixes bug 13151; bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.
Tor Browser includes several ClientTransportPlugin lines in its
torrc-defaults file, leading every Tor Browser user who looks at her
logs to see these notices and wonder if they're dangerous.
Resolves bug 13124; bugfix on 0.2.5.3-alpha.
Technically, we're not allowed to take the address of a member can't
exist relative to the null pointer. That makes me wonder how any sane
compliant system implements the offsetof macro, but let's let sleeping
balrogs lie.
Fixes 13096; patch on 0.1.1.9-alpha; patch from "teor", who was using
clang -fsanitize=undefined-trap -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error -ftrapv
This fixes bug 13102 (not on any released Tor) where using the
standard SSIZE_MAX name broke mingw64, and we didn't realize.
I did this with
perl -i -pe 's/SIZE_T_MAX/SIZE_MAX/' src/*/*.[ch] src/*/*/*.[ch]
This implements the meat of #12899. This commit should simply remove the
parts of Tor dirauths used to check whether a relay was supposed to be
named or not, it doesn't yet convert to a new mechanism for
reject/invalid/baddir/badexiting relays.
Back in 078d6bcd, we added an event number 0x20, but we didn't make
the event_mask field big enough to compensate.
Patch by "teor". Fixes 13085; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
This is in preparation for a big patch series removing the entire Naming
system from Tor. In its wake, the approved-routers file is being
deprecated, and a replacement option to allow only pre-approved routers
is not being implemented.
torrc.minimal is now the one that should change as infrequently as
possible. To schedule an change to go into it eventually, make your
change to torrc.minimal.in-sample.
torrc.sample is now the volatile one: we can change it to our hearts'
content.
Closes ticket #11144
This implements a feature from bug 13000. Instead of starting a bwauth
run with this wrong idea about their bw, relays should do the self-test
and then get measured.
When a tor relay starts up and has no historical information about its
bandwidth capability, it uploads a descriptor with a bw estimate of 0.
It then starts its bw selftest, but has to wait 20 minutes to upload the
next descriptor due to the MAX_BANDWIDTH_CHANGE_FREQ delay. This change
should mean that on average, relays start seeing meaningful traffic a
little quicker, since they will have a higher chance to appear in the
consensus with a nonzero bw.
