Right now this accounts for about 1% of circuits over all, but if you
pick a guard that's running 0.2.3, it will be about 6% of the circuits
running through that guard.
Making sure that every circuit has at least one ntor link means that
we're getting plausibly good forward secrecy on every circuit.
This implements ticket 9777,
It's possible to set your ExitNodes to contains only exits that don't
have the Exit flag. If you do that, we'll decide that 0 of your exits
are working. Instead, in that case we should look at nodes which have
(or which might have) exit policies that don't reject everything.
Fix for bug 10543; bugfix on 0.2.4.10-alpha.
My OSX laptop rightly gave a warning because of sticking strlen() into
an int, but once I took a closer look... it appears that the strlen()
was part of a needlessly verbose implementation for tor_strdup().
While I was there, I fixed the usage of tor_free() in test_hs.c: It
checks for NULL, and it zeros its argument. So instead of
if (foo) {
tor_free(foo);
foo = NULL;
}
we should just say
tor_free(foo);
Improvement on f308adf838, where we made the ntor
unit tests run everywhere... so long as a python curve25519 module
was installed. Now the unit tests don't require that module.
I'm doing this because:
* User doesn't mean you're running as root, and running as root
doesn't mean you've set User.
* It's possible that the user has done some other
capability-based hack to retain the necessary privileges.
The remaining vestige is that we continue to publish the V2dir flag,
and that, for the controller, we continue to emit v2 directory
formats when requested.
When I introduced the unusable_for_new_circuits flag in
62fb209d83, I had a spurious ! in the
circuit_stream_is_being_handled loop. This made us decide that
non-unusable circuits (that is, usable ones) were the ones to avoid,
and caused it to launch a bunch of extra circuits.
Fixes bug 10456; bugfix on 0.2.4.12-alpha.
This fixes bug 10402, where the rdrand engine would use the rdrand
instruction, not as an additional entropy source, but as a replacement
for the entire userspace PRNG. That's obviously stupid: even if you
don't think that RDRAND is a likely security risk, the right response
to an alleged new alleged entropy source is never to throw away all
previously used entropy sources.
Thanks to coderman and rl1987 for diagnosing and tracking this down.
