[HSPOST was added in Tor 0.2.7.1-alpha]
+3.23. DROPOWNERSHIP
+
+ The syntax is:
+ "DROPOWNERSHIP" CRLF
+
+ This command instructs Tor to relinquish ownership of its control
+ connection. As such tor will not shut down when this control
+ connection is closed.
+
+ This method is idempotent. If the control connection does not
+ already have ownership this method returns successfully, and
+ does nothing.
+
+ The controller can call TAKEOWNERSHIP again to re-establish
+ ownership.
