Implements #8561.
2013-04-13Manpage: refer to ExcludeExitNodes, not the nonexistent ExcludeEntryNodesNick Mathewson

2013-03-20Per-SOCKSPort configuration for bug 8117 fix.Nick Mathewson
This might be necessary if the bug8117 fix confuses any applications. Also add a changes file.
2013-03-20Let testing networks override ABSOLUTE_MIN_VALUE_FOR_FAST_FLAGNick Mathewson
This adds a new option to fix bug 8508 which broke chutney networks. The bug was introduced by 317d16de.

2013-03-19Drop the minimum guard lifetime back down to one monthNick Mathewson
Mike believes that raising the default to 2 months with no way to lower it may create horrible load-balancing issues.
2013-03-19Document the GuardLifetime optionNick Mathewson
2013-03-19Make the guard lifetime configurable and adjustable via the consensusNick Mathewson
Fixes 8240. (Don't actually increase the default guard lifetime. It seems likely to break too many things if done precipitiously.)

2013-02-27Remove some lingering tsocks cruft.Nick Mathewson
Now the manpages no longer refer to tsocks or tsocks.conf, and we no longer have or ship a tor-tsocks.conf. The only remaining instances of "tsocks" in our repository are old ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes entries, and the torify script saying that it doesn't support tsocks. Fixes bug 8290.

2013-02-01Refactor the scaling parameter fetching into a single function.Mike Perry
Also, deprecate the torrc options for the scaling values. It's unlikely anyone but developers will ever tweak them, even if we provided a single ratio value.
2013-01-30Merge branch 'bug5956_squashed'Nick Mathewson
2013-01-30Parameterize FRAC_USABLE_NEEDED for fraction of circuitsNick Mathewson
Instead of hardcoding the minimum fraction of possible paths to 0.6, we take it from the user, and failing that from the consensus, and failing that we fall back to 0.6.

2013-01-17When excluding nodes by country, exclude {??} and {A1} tooNick Mathewson
This is ticket 7706, reported by "bugcatcher." The rationale here is that if somebody says 'ExcludeNodes {tv}', then they probably don't just want to block definitely Tuvaluan nodes: they also want to block nodes that have unknown country, since for all they know such nodes are also in Tuvalu. This behavior is controlled by a new GeoIPExcludeUnknown autobool option. With the default (auto) setting, we exclude ?? and A1 if any country is excluded. If the option is 1, we add ?? and A1 unconditionally; if the option is 0, we never add them. (Right now our geoip file doesn't actually seem to include A1: I'm including it here in case it comes back.) This feature only takes effect if you have a GeoIP file. Otherwise you'd be excluding every node.
2013-01-03Eliminate MaxOnionsPending; replace it with MaxOnionQueueDelayNick Mathewson
The right way to set "MaxOnionsPending" was to adjust it until the processing delay was appropriate. So instead, let's measure how long it takes to process onionskins (sampling them once we have a big number), and then limit the queue based on its expected time to finish. This change is extra-necessary for ntor, since there is no longer a reasonable way to set MaxOnionsPending without knowing what mix of onionskins you'll get. This patch also reserves 1/3 of the onionskin spots for ntor handshakes, on the theory that TAP handshakes shouldn't be allowed to starve their speedier cousins. We can change this later if need be. Resolves 7291.

2012-12-17Document PreferIPv6Automap in the manpageNick Mathewson
2012-12-17Build and test most of the machinery needed for IPv6 virtualaddrmapsNick Mathewson
With an IPv6 virtual address map, we can basically hand out a new IPv6 address for _every_ address we connect to. That'll be cool, and will let us maybe get around prop205 issues. This uses some fancy logic to try to make the code paths in the ipv4 and the ipv6 case as close as possible, and moves to randomly generated addresses so we don't need to maintain those stupid counters that will collide if Tor restarts but apps don't. Also has some XXXX items to fix to make this useful. More design needed.
