Log Message:
update tor to 0.2.2.5
Changes in version 0.2.2.5-alpha - 2009-10-11
o Major bugfixes:
- Make the tarball compile again. Oops. Bugfix on 0.2.2.4-alpha.
o New directory authorities:
- Move dizum to an alternate IP address.
Changes in version 0.2.2.4-alpha - 2009-10-10
o Major bugfixes:
- Fix several more asserts in the circuit_build_times code, for
example one that causes Tor to fail to start once we have
accumulated 5000 build times in the state file. Bugfixes on
0.2.2.2-alpha; fixes bug 1108.
o New directory authorities:
- Move moria1 and Tonga to alternate IP addresses.
o Minor features:
- Log SSL state transitions at debug level during handshake, and
include SSL states in error messages. This may help debug future
SSL handshake issues.
- Add a new "Handshake" log domain for activities that happen
during the TLS handshake.
- Revert to the "June 3 2009" ip-to-country file. The September one
seems to have removed most US IP addresses.
- Directory authorities now reject Tor relays with versions less than
0.1.2.14. This step cuts out four relays from the current network,
none of which are very big.
o Minor bugfixes:
- Fix a couple of smaller issues with gathering statistics. Bugfixes
on 0.2.2.1-alpha.
- Fix two memory leaks in the error case of
circuit_build_times_parse_state. Bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
- Don't count one-hop circuits when we're estimating how long it
takes circuits to build on average. Otherwise we'll set our circuit
build timeout lower than we should. Bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
- Directory authorities no longer change their opinion of, or vote on,
whether a router is Running, unless they have themselves been
online long enough to have some idea. Bugfix on 0.2.0.6-alpha.
Fixes bug 1023.
o Code simplifications and refactoring:
- Revise our unit tests to use the "tinytest" framework, so we
can run tests in their own processes, have smarter setup/teardown
code, and so on. The unit test code has moved to its own
subdirectory, and has been split into multiple modules.
Changes in version 0.2.2.3-alpha - 2009-09-23
Tor 0.2.2.3-alpha fixes a few crash bugs in 0.2.2.2-alpha.
o Major bugfixes:
- Fix an overzealous assert in our new circuit build timeout code.
Bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha; fixes bug 1103.
o Minor bugfixes:
- If the networkstatus consensus tells us that we should use a
negative circuit package window, ignore it. Otherwise we'll
believe it and then trigger an assert. Bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
Changes in version 0.2.2.2-alpha - 2009-09-21
Tor 0.2.2.2-alpha introduces our latest performance improvement for
clients: Tor tracks the average time it takes to build a circuit, and
avoids using circuits that take too long to build. For fast connections,
this feature can cut your expected latency in half. For slow or flaky
connections, it could ruin your Tor experience. Let us know if it does!
o Major features:
- Tor now tracks how long it takes to build client-side circuits
over time, and adapts its timeout to local network performance.
Since a circuit that takes a long time to build will also provide
bad performance, we get significant latency improvements by
discarding the slowest 20% of circuits. Specifically, Tor creates
circuits more aggressively than usual until it has enough data
points for a good timeout estimate. Implements proposal 151.
We are especially looking for reports (good and bad) from users with
both EDGE and broadband connections that can move from broadband
to EDGE and find out if the build-time data in the .tor/state gets
reset without loss of Tor usability. You should also see a notice
log message telling you that Tor has reset its timeout.
- Directory authorities can now vote on arbitary integer values as
part of the consensus process. This is designed to help set
network-wide parameters. Implements proposal 167.
- Tor now reads the "circwindow" parameter out of the consensus,
and uses that value for its circuit package window rather than the
default of 1000 cells. Begins the implementation of proposal 168.
o Major bugfixes:
- Fix a remotely triggerable memory leak when a consensus document
contains more than one signature from the same voter. Bugfix on
0.2.0.3-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes:
- Fix an extremely rare infinite recursion bug that could occur if
we tried to log a message after shutting down the log subsystem.
Found by Matt Edman. Bugfix on 0.2.0.16-alpha.
- Fix parsing for memory or time units given without a space between
the number and the unit. Bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha; fixes bug 1076.
- A networkstatus vote must contain exactly one signature. Spec
conformance issue. Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
- Fix an obscure bug where hidden services on 64-bit big-endian
systems might mis-read the timestamp in v3 introduce cells, and
refuse to connect back to the client. Discovered by "rotor".
Bugfix on 0.2.1.6-alpha.
- We were triggering a CLOCK_SKEW controller status event whenever
we connect via the v2 connection protocol to any relay that has
a wrong clock. Instead, we should only inform the controller when
it's a trusted authority that claims our clock is wrong. Bugfix
on 0.2.0.20-rc; starts to fix bug 1074. Reported by SwissTorExit.
- We were telling the controller about CHECKING_REACHABILITY and
REACHABILITY_FAILED status events whenever we launch a testing
circuit or notice that one has failed. Instead, only tell the
controller when we want to inform the user of overall success or
overall failure. Bugfix on 0.1.2.6-alpha. Fixes bug 1075. Reported
by SwissTorExit.
- Don't warn when we're using a circuit that ends with a node
excluded in ExcludeExitNodes, but the circuit is not used to access
the outside world. This should help fix bug 1090, but more problems
remain. Bugfix on 0.2.1.6-alpha.
- Work around a small memory leak in some versions of OpenSSL that
stopped the memory used by the hostname TLS extension from being
freed.
- Make our 'torify' script more portable; if we have only one of
'torsocks' or 'tsocks' installed, don't complain to the user;
and explain our warning about tsocks better.
o Minor features:
- Add a "getinfo status/accepted-server-descriptor" controller
command, which is the recommended way for controllers to learn
whether our server descriptor has been successfully received by at
least on directory authority. Un-recommend good-server-descriptor
getinfo and status events until we have a better design for them.
- Update to the "September 4 2009" ip-to-country file.
