If unix socket was configured as listener (such as a ControlSocket or a
SocksPort unix socket), and tor was started as root but not configured
to switch to another user, tor would segfault while trying to string
compare a NULL value. Fixes bug 18261; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patch
by weasel.
When ClientPreferIPv6ORPort is auto, bridges prefer the configured
bridge ORPort address. Otherwise, they use the value of the option.
Other clients prefer IPv4 ORPorts if ClientPreferIPv6ORPort is auto.
When ClientPreferIPv6DirPort is auto, all clients prefer IPv4 DirPorts.
Modify callers to correctly handle these new NULL returns:
* fix assert in onion_extend_cpath
* warn and discard circuit in circuit_get_open_circ_or_launch
* warn, discard circuit, and tell controller in handle_control_extendcircuit
Bridge clients ignore ClientUseIPv6, acting as if it is always 1.
This preserves existing behaviour.
Make ClientPreferIPv6OR/DirPort auto by default:
* Bridge clients prefer IPv6 by default.
* Other clients prefer IPv4 by default.
This preserves existing behaviour.
ClientUseIPv4 0 tells tor to avoid IPv4 client connections.
ClientPreferIPv6DirPort 1 tells tor to prefer IPv6 directory connections.
Refactor policy for IPv4/IPv6 preferences.
Fix a bug where node->ipv6_preferred could become stale if
ClientPreferIPv6ORPort was changed after the consensus was loaded.
Update documentation, existing code, add unit tests.
node_get_all_orports and router_get_all_orports incorrectly used or_port
with IPv6 addresses. They now use ipv6_orport.
Also refactor and remove duplicated code.
Avoid using a pronoun where it makes comments unclear.
Avoid using gender for things that don't have it.
Avoid assigning gender to people unnecessarily.
Allow fallback directories which have been stable for 30 days
to work around #18050, which causes relays to submit descriptors
with 0 DirPorts when restarted. (Particularly during Tor version
upgrades.)
Ignore low fallback directory count in alpha builds.
Otherwise, relays publish a descriptor with DirPort 0 when the DirPort
reachability test takes longer than the ORPort reachability test.
Closes bug #18050. Reported by "starlight", patch by "teor".
Bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc, commit a1f1fa6ab on 27 Feb 2005.
