Changes in version 0.3.1.5-??? - 2017-08-01
|
||||
Blurb goes here
|
||||
|
||||
This release also marks the end of support for the Tor 0.2.4.x,
|
||||
0.2.6.x, and 0.2.7.x release series. Those releases will receive no
|
||||
further bug or security fixes. Anyone still running or distributing
|
||||
one of those versions should upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
o Major features (build system):
|
||||
- Tor's repository now includes a Travis Continuous Integration (CI)
|
||||
configuration file (.travis.yml). This is meant to help new
|
||||
developers and contributors who fork Tor to a Github repository be
|
||||
better able to test their changes, and understand what we expect
|
||||
to pass. To use this new build feature, you must fork Tor to your
|
||||
Github account, then go into the "Integrations" menu in the
|
||||
repository settings for your fork and enable Travis, then push
|
||||
your changes. Closes ticket 22636.
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (openbsd, denial-of-service):
|
||||
- Avoid an assertion failure bug affecting our implementation of
|
||||
inet_pton(AF_INET6) on certain OpenBSD systems whose strtol()
|
||||
handling of "0xfoo" differs from what we had expected. Fixes bug
|
||||
22789; bugfix on 0.2.3.8-alpha. Also tracked as TROVE-2017-007.
|
||||
|
||||
o Major bugfixes (relay, performance):
|
||||
- Perform circuit handshake operations at a higher priority than we
|
||||
use for consensus diff creation and compression. This should
|
||||
prevent circuits from starving when a relay or bridge receive a
|
||||
new consensus, especially on lower-powered machines. Fixes bug
|
||||
22883; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (bridge authority):
|
||||
- Add "fingerprint" line to networkstatus-bridges produced by bridge
|
||||
authorities. Closes ticket 22207.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (directory cache, consensus diff):
|
||||
- Add a new MaxConsensusAgeForDiffs option to allow directory cache
|
||||
operators with low-resource environments to adjust the number of
|
||||
consensuses they'll store and generate diffs from. Most cache
|
||||
operators should leave it unchanged. Helps to work around
|
||||
bug 22883.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (relay, performance):
|
||||
- Always start relays with at least two worker threads, to prevent
|
||||
priority inversion on slow tasks. Part of the fix for bug 22883.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor features (relay, thread pool):
|
||||
- Allow background work to be queued with different priorities, so
|
||||
that a big pile of slow low-priority jobs will not starve out
|
||||
higher priority jobs. This lays the groundwork for a fix for
|
||||
bug 22883.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (build system, rust):
|
||||
- Fix a problem with Rust toolchains not being found when building
|
||||
without --enable-cargo-online-mode, due to setting the $HOME
|
||||
environment variable instead of $CARGO_HOME. Fixes bug 22830;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. Fix by Chelsea Komlo.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (compatibility, zstd):
|
||||
- Write zstd epilogues correctly when the epilogue requires
|
||||
reallocation of the output buffer, even with zstd 1.3.0.
|
||||
(Previously, we worked on 1.2.0 and failed with 1.3.0). Fixes bug
|
||||
22927; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (compilation warnings):
|
||||
- Suppress -Wdouble-promotion warnings with clang 4.0. Fixes bug
|
||||
22915; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (Compilation):
|
||||
- Fix warnings when building with libscrypt and openssl scrypt
|
||||
support on Clang. Fixes bug 22916; bugfix on 0.2.7.2-alpha.
|
||||
- Compile correctly when both openssl 1.1.0 and libscrypt are
|
||||
detected. Previously this would cause an error. Fixes bug 22892;
|
||||
bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
- When building with certain versions the mingw C header files,
|
||||
avoid float-conversion warnings when calling the C functions
|
||||
isfinite(), isnan(), and signbit(). Fixes bug 22801; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (consensus diff):
|
||||
- test_consdiff_base64cmp would fail on OS X because while OS X
|
||||
follows the standard of (less than zero/zero/greater than zero),
|
||||
it doesn't follow the convention of (-1/0/+1). Make the test
|
||||
comply with the standard. Fixes bug 22870; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (coverity builds):
|
||||
- Avoid Coverity build warnings related to our BUG() macro. By
|
||||
default, Coverity treats BUG() as the Linux kernel does: an
|
||||
instant abort(). We need to override that so our BUG() macro
|
||||
doesn't prevent Coverity from analyzing functions that use it.
|
||||
Fixes bug 23030; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (directory authority):
|
||||
- When a directory authority rejects a descriptor or extrainfo with
|
||||
a given digest, mark that digest as undownloadable, so that we do
|
||||
not attempt to download it again over and over. We previously
|
||||
tried to avoid downloading such descriptors by other means, but we
|
||||
didn't notice if we accidentally downloaded one anyway. This
|
||||
behavior became problematic in 0.2.7.2-alpha, when authorities
|
||||
began pinning Ed25519 keys. Fixes bug 22349; bugfix
|
||||
on 0.2.1.19-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (error reporting, windows):
|
||||
- When formatting Windows error messages, use the English format to
|
||||
avoid codepage issues. Fixes bug 22520; bugfix on 0.1.2.8-alpha.
|
||||
Patch from "Vort".
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (file limits):
|
||||
- When setting the maximum number of connections allowed by the OS,
|
||||
always allow some extra file descriptors for other files. Fixes
|
||||
bug 22797; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp2 sandbox):
|
||||
- Avoid a sandbox failure when trying to re-bind to a socket and
|
||||
mark it as IPv6-only. Fixes bug 20247; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (memory leak):
|
||||
- Fix a small memory leak when validating a configuration that uses
|
||||
two or more AF_UNIX sockets for the same port type. Fixes bug
|
||||
23053; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. This is CID 1415725.
|
||||
|
||||
o Minor bugfixes (unit tests):
|
||||
- Fix a memory leak in the link-handshake/certs_ok_ed25519 test.
|
||||
Fixes bug 22803; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.

||||

||||

Changes in version 0.3.1.4-alpha - 2017-06-29
|
||||
Tor 0.3.1.4-alpha fixes a path selection bug that would allow a client
|
||||
to use a guard that was in the same network family as a chosen exit
