Specifically, if the consensus is older than the (estimted or
measured) release date for this version of tor, we assume that the
required versions may have changed in between that consensus and
this release.
Implements ticket 27735 and proposal 297.
The main.c code is responsible for initialization and shutdown;
the mainloop.c code is responsible for running the main loop of Tor.
Splitting the "generic event loop" part of mainloop.c from the
event-loop-specific part is not done as part of this patch.
In dirauth:
* bwauth.c reads and uses bandwidth files
* guardfraction.c reads and uses the guardfraction file
* reachability.c tests relay reachability
* recommend_pkg.c handles the recommended-packages lines.
* recv_descs.c handles fingerprint files and processing incoming
routerinfos that relays upload to us
* voteflag.c computes flag thresholds and sets those thresholds on
routerstatuses when computing votes
In control:
* fmt_serverstatus.c generates the ancient "v1 server status"
format that controllers expect.
In nodelist:
* routerstatus_fmt.c formats routerstatus entries for a consensus,
a vote, or for the controller.
There are now separate modules for:
* the list of router descriptors
* the list of authorities and fallbacks
* managing authority certificates
* selecting random nodes
There are three reasons we use a cached_dir_t to hold a consensus:
1. to serve that consensus to a client
2. to apply a consensus diff to an existing consensus
3. to send the consensus to a controller.
But case 1 is dircache-only. Case 2 and case 3 both fall back to
networkstatus_read_cached_consensus(). So there's no reason for us
to store this as a client. Avoiding this saves about 23% of our RAM
usage, according to our experiments last month.
This is, semantically, a partial revert of e5c608e535.
Fixes bug 27247; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
This patch adds two assertions in get_net_param_from_list() to ensure
that the `res` value is correctly within the range of the output domain.
Hopefully fixes Coverity CID #1415721, #1415722, and #1415723.

This commit won't build yet -- it just puts everything in a slightly
more logical place.
The reasoning here is that "src/core" will hold the stuff that every (or
nearly every) tor instance will need in order to do onion routing.
Other features (including some necessary ones) will live in
"src/feature". The "src/app" directory will hold the stuff needed
to have Tor be an application you can actually run.
This commit DOES NOT refactor the former contents of src/or into a
logical set of acyclic libraries, or change any code at all. That
will have to come in the future.
We will continue to move things around and split them in the future,
but I hope this lays a reasonable groundwork for doing so.
