In theory it would be better to detect this bug in advance, but this
approach is much simpler, and therefore safer to backport.
This closes tor issue 28973.
Linked connections aren't woken up by libevent due to I/O but rather
artificially so we can, by chunks, empty the spooled object(s).
Commit 5719dfb48f (in 0.3.4.1-alpha) made it
that the schedule_active_linked_connections_event would be only called once at
startup but this is wrong because then we would never go through again the
active linked connections.
Fortunately, everytime a new linked connection is created, the event is
activated and thus we would go through the active list again. On a busy relay,
this issue is mitigated by that but on a slower relays or bridge, a connection
could get stuck for a while until a new directory information request would
show up.
Fixes#28717, #28912
The point of this function is to make sure that the ed25519-based
implementation of curve25519_basepoint() actually works when we
start tor, and use the regular fallback implementation if it
doesn't. But it accounts for 9% of our startup time in the case
when we have directory information, and I think it's safe to make
the test shorter. After all, it has yet to find any actual bugs in
curved25519_scalarmult_basepoint_donna() on any platforms.
Closes ticket 28838.
Add the bootstrap tag name to the log messages, so people
troubleshooting connection problems can look up a symbol instead of a
number. Closes ticket 28731.
Merge Phoul's two lists into teor's list.
Replace the 150 fallbacks originally introduced in Tor 0.3.3.1-alpha in
January 2018 (of which ~115 were still functional), with a list of
157 fallbacks (92 new, 65 existing, 85 removed) generated in
December 2018.
