Conflicts: src/or/main.c
2014-04-24Change the logic for the default for MaxMemInQueuesNick Mathewson
If we can't detect the physical memory, the new default is 8 GB on 64-bit architectures, and 1 GB on 32-bit architectures. If we *can* detect the physical memory, the new default is CLAMP(256 MB, phys_mem * 0.75, MAX_DFLT) where MAX_DFLT is 8 GB on 64-bit architectures and 2 GB on 32-bit architectures. You can still override the default by hand. The logic here is simply trying to choose a lower default value on systems with less than 12 GB of physical RAM.
2014-04-16Educate tor on OpenBSD's use of divert-to rules with the pf firewall.dana koch
This means that tor can run without needing to communicate with ioctls to the firewall, and therefore doesn't need to run with privileges to open the /dev/pf device node. A new TransProxyType is added for this purpose, "pf-divert"; if the user specifies this TransProxyType in their torrc, then the pf device node is never opened and the connection destination is determined with getsockname (as per pf(4)). The default behaviour (ie., when TransProxyType is "default" when using the pf firewall) is still to assume that pf is configured with rdr-to rules.
2014-04-16ipfw TransPort support on FreeBSD (10267)Nick Mathewson
This isn't on by default; to get it, you need to set "TransProxyType ipfw". (The original patch had automatic detection for whether /dev/pf is present and openable, but that seems marginally fragile.)

2014-04-01Fix documentation of torrc search orderNick Mathewson
We are searching @CONFDIR@ before $HOME, but the documentation implied otherwise. I screwed this up in f5e86bcd6c06d43ff3af5acd8135bd8b577bc3, when I first documented the $HOME/.torrc possibility. Fix for bug 9213; bugfix on 0.2.3.18-rc.
2014-03-26Fix build of torify.1Nick Mathewson
The build was broken by changes in f8c45339f72525c68, but we didn't notice, since that commit also made torify.1 only get built when tor-fw-helper was turned on. Fixes bug 11321; bugfix on Tor 0.2.5.1-alpha.

2014-03-25Fix SOCKSPort documentation layoutNick Mathewson
In the end this required a slightly nasty hack using a dummy anchor as an option heading in order to make the "Other recognized __flags__" line indent properly. Fixes bug 11061; Bugfix on 61d740ed.

2014-03-03Warn if ports are specified in {Socks,Dir}PolicyNick Mathewson
We have ignored any ports listed here since 80365b989 (0.0.7rc1), but we didn't warn the user that we were ignoring them. This patch adds a warning if you put explicit ports in any of the options {Socks,Dir}Policy or AuthDir{Reject,Invalid,BadDir,BadExit}. It also adjusts the manpage to say that ports are ignored. Fixes ticket 11108.

2014-02-11Tweak DirAuthority documentationNick Mathewson
Per a comment from karsten, there is no longer v2 authority support, so stop pretending there is. Also, fix a grammar error.x
2014-02-10Remove options for configuring HS authorities.Nick Mathewson
(There is no longer meaningfully any such thing as a HS authority, since we stopped uploading or downloading v0 hs descriptors in 0.2.2.1-alpha.) Implements #10881, and part of #10841.
2014-02-03TransProxyType replaces TransTPROXY optionNick Mathewson
I'm making this change now since ipfw will want its own option too, and proliferating options here isn't sensible. (See #10582 and #10267)
