Right now we only force a new descriptor upload every 18 hours.
This can make servers become unlisted if they upload a descriptor at
time T which the authorities reject as being "too similar" to one
they uploaded before. Nothing will actually make the server upload a
new descriptor later on, until another 18 hours have passed.
This patch changes the upload behavior so that the 18 hour interval
applies only when we're listed in a live consensus with a descriptor
published within the last 18 hours. Otherwise--if we're not listed
in the live consensus, or if we're listed with a publication time
over 18 hours in the past--we upload a new descriptor every 90
minutes.
This is an attempted bugfix for #3327. If we merge it, it should
obsolete #535.

Some of these were a little tricky, since they touched code that
changed because of the prop171 fixes.
For some reason, autoconf doesn't by default have an "AC_PROG_AR" for
this -- possibly it's assumed that any "ar" you have will work
everyplace.
Fixes bug 3909; found by sid77.
This fixes a build issue first present in fdbdb4dc15, but the bug
(of not using a correct ar) has been in every Tor version ever: it
just didn't matter until then.
On some platforms, with non-blocking IO, on EOF you first
get EAGAIN, and then on the second read you get zero bytes
and EOF is set. However on others, the EOF flag is set as
soon as the last byte is read. This patch fixes the test
case in the latter scenario.
After a stream reached eof, we fclose it, but then
test_util_spawn_background_partial_read() reads from it again, which causes
an error and thus another fclose(). Some platforms are fine with this, others
(e.g. debian-sid-i386) trigger a double-free() error. The actual code used by
Tor (log_from_pipe() and tor_check_port_forwarding()) handle this case
correctly.
Mainly used for testing reading from subprocesses. To be more generic
we now pass in a pointer to a process_handle_t rather than a Windows-
specific HANDLE.
For bufferevents, we had all of connection_buckets_decrement() stubbed
out. But that's not actually right! The rephist_* parts were
essential for, inter alia, recording our own bandwidth. This patch
splits out the rephist parts of connection_buckets_decrement() into their
own function, and makes the bufferevent code call that new function.
Fixes bug 3803, and probably 3824 and 3826 too. Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Previously, if you were set up to use microdescriptors, and you
weren't a cache, you'd never fetch router descriptors (except for
bridges). Now FetchUselessDescriptors causes descriptors and
mirodescs to get cached. Also, FetchUselessDescriptors changes the
behavior of "UseMicrodescriptors auto" to be off, since there's no
point in saying "UseMicrodescriptors 1" when you have full descriptors
too.
Fix for bug 3851; bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha.
Conventionally in Tor, structs are returned as pointers, so change
tor_spawn_background() to return the process handle in a pointer rather
than as return value.
