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>
2020-06-04doc: specify C99 coding standardsc
Make clear that Tor's C code targets C99 standards. This makes it more explicit what to expect for new code, because guessing from existing code is not always reliable, especially for code that predates the change in standard.

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.
