We've been seeing problems with destroy cells queues taking up a
huge amount of RAM. We can mitigate this, since while a full packed
destroy cell takes 514 bytes, we only need 5 bytes to remember a
circuit ID and a reason.
Fixes bug 24666. Bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha, when destroy cell queues
were introduced.
With extra_space negative, it means that the "notsent" queue is quite large so
we must consider that value with the current computed tcp_space. If we end up
to have negative space, we should not add more data to the kernel since the
notsent queue is just too filled up.
Fixes#24665

Instead of using INT_MAX as a write limit for KISTLite, use the lower layer
limit which is using the specialized num_cells_writeable() of the channel that
will down the line check the connection's outbuf and limit it to 32KB
(OR_CONN_HIGHWATER).
That way we don't take the chance of bloating the connection's outbuf and we
keep the cells in the circuit queue which our OOM handler can take care of,
not the outbuf.
Finally, this commit adds a log_debug() in the update socket information
function of KIST so we can get the socket information in debug.

Retry directory downloads when we get our first bridge descriptor
during bootstrap or while reconnecting to the network. Keep retrying
every time we get a bridge descriptor, until we have a reachable bridge.
Stop delaying bridge descriptor fetches when we have cached bridge
descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when we
have at least one reachable bridge.
Fixes bug 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
In KIST, we could have a small congestion window value than the unacked
packets leading to a integer overflow which leaves the tcp_space value to be
humongous.
This has no security implications but it results in KIST scheduler allowing to
send cells on a potentially saturated connection.
Found by #24423. Fixes#24590.

Previously, circuit_stream_is_being_handled incorrectly reported
that (1) an exit port was "handled" by a circuit regardless of
whether the circuit was already isolated in some way, and
(2) that a stream could be "handled" by a circuit even if their
isolation settings were incompatible.
As a result of (1), in Tor Browser, circuit_get_unhandled_ports was
reporting that all ports were handled even though all non-internal
circuits had already been isolated by a SOCKS username+password.
Therefore, circuit_predict_and_launch_new was declining to launch
new exit circuits. Then, when the user visited a new site in Tor
Browser, a stream with new SOCKS credentials would be initiated,
and the stream would have to wait while a new circuit with those
credentials could be built. That wait was making the
time-to-first-byte longer than it needed to be.
Now, clean, not-yet-isolated circuit(s) will be automatically
launched ahead of time and be ready for use whenever a new stream
with new SOCKS credentials (or other isolation criteria) is
initiated.
Fixes bug 18859. Thanks to Nick Mathewson for improvements.
