Previously, we'd just take all the nodes in EntryNodes, see which ones were already in the guard list, and add the ones that weren't. There were some problems there, though: * We'd add _every_ entry in EntryNodes, and add them in the order they appeared in the routerlist. This wasn't a problem until we added the ability to give country-code or IP-range entries in the EntryNodes set, but now that we did, it is. (Fix: We now shuffle the entry nodes before adding them; only add up to 10*NumEntryGuards) * We didn't screen EntryNodes for the Guard flag. That's okay if the user has specified two or three entry nodes manually, but if they have listed a whole subcontinent, we should restrict ourselves to the entries that are currently guards. (Fix: separate out the new guard from the new non-guard nodes, and add the Guards first.) * We'd prepend new EntryNodes _before_ the already configured EntryNodes. This could lead to churn. (Fix: don't prepend these.) This patch also pre-screens EntryNodes entries for reachableaddresses/excludenodes, even though we check for that later. This is important now, since we cap the number of entries we'll add.

o Minor bugfixes:
|
|
- When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes (as with
|
|
'EntryNodes {cc}' or 'EntryNodes 1.1.1.1/16'), choose only a
|
|
random subset to be guards, and choose them in random
|
|
order. Bugfix on 0.2.3.1-alpha; fixes bug 2798.
|
|
|
|
o Minor features:
|
|
- When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes, and there are
|
|
enough of them listed as Guard so that we don't need to consider
|
|
the non-guard entries, prefer the ones listed with the Guard flag.
