2020-07-07Revert "config: Make clients tell dual-stack exits they prefer IPv6"David Goulet
This reverts commit bf2a399fc0d90df76e091fa3259f7c1b8fb87781. Don't set by default the prefer IPv6 feature on client ports because it breaks the torsocks use case. The SOCKS resolve command is lacking a mechanism to ask for a specific address family (v4 or v6) thus prioritizing IPv6 when an IPv4 address is asked on the resolve SOCKS interface resulting in a failure. Tor Browser explicitly set PreferIPv6 so this should not affect the majority of our users. Closes #33796 Signed-off-by: David Goulet <dgoulet@torproject.org>
2020-06-26Remove special authority semantics for AssumeReachable.Nick Mathewson
AssumeReachable should only be about whether a relay thinks that it is reachable itself. But previously, we've had it also turn off reachability checking of _other_ relays on authorities. (Technically, reachability tests were still run, but we would ignore the results.) With this patch, there is a new AuthDirTestReachability option (default 1) that controls whether authorities run reachability tests. Making this change allows us to have test networks where authorities set AssumeReachable without disabling their reachability testing entirely. Closes ticket #34445.

2020-06-25Deprecate the "--dump-config non-builtin" optionNick Mathewson
When it works, "non-builtin" doesn't do anything different from "short". (When it doesn't work, it gives an assertion failure.) Closes ticket #33398.
2020-06-24Add an AssumeReachableIPv6 autobool option.Nick Mathewson
This option tells Tor that our IPv6 orport is reachable, and doesn't need to be checked. Closes the rest of 33224.
2020-06-15Remove AssumeReachable from TestingTorNetwork.Nick Mathewson
Closes ticket 34446.

2020-04-09client: Revert setting PreferIPv6 on by defaultDavid Goulet
This change broke torsocks that by default is expecting an IPv4 for hostname resolution because it can't ask tor for a specific IP version with the SOCKS5 extension. PreferIPv6 made it that sometimes the IPv6 could be returned to torsocks that was expecting an IPv4. Torsocks is probably a very unique case because the runtime flow is that it hijacks DNS resolution (ex: getaddrinfo()), gets an IP and then sends it back for the connect() to happen. The libc has DNS resolution functions that allows the caller to request a specific INET family but torsocks can't tell tor to resolve the hostname only to an IPv4 or IPv6 and thus by default fallsback to IPv4. Reverting this change into 0.4.3.x series but we'll keep it in the 0.4.4.x series in the hope that we add this SOCKS5 extension to tor for DNS resolution and then change torsocks to use that.
