Roger Dingledine 691371b802 fix extra words in man page 2014-08-09 15:40:40 -04:00
Nick Mathewson e001610c99 Implement proposal 221: Stop sending CREATE_FAST
This makes FastFirstHopPK an AUTOBOOL; makes the default "auto"; and
makes the behavior of "auto" be "look at the consensus."

Nick Mathewson a68e6ea9c0 Fix documentation of torrc search order
We are searching @CONFDIR@ before $HOME, but the documentation
implied otherwise.

I screwed this up in f5e86bcd6c, when I
first documented the $HOME/.torrc possibility.

Fix for bug 9213; bugfix on 0.2.3.18-rc.

Nick Mathewson 532f70a807 Change documentation DirServer->DirAuthority
We renamed the option, but we didn't actually fix it in the log
messages or the docs.  This patch does that.

For #10124.  Patch by sqrt2.

Karsten Loesing 66a04a6ac3 Clarify who learns about ContactInfo.
Explicitly include bridges, and note that we archive and publish all
descriptors.

(We are not yet publishing ContactInfo lines contained in bridge
descriptors, but maybe we'll want to do that soon, so let's err on the
side of caution here.)

Related to #9854.

Nick Mathewson 72c1e5acfe Switch ECDHE group default logic for bridge/relay TLS
According to the manpage, bridges use P256 for conformity and relays
use P224 for speed. But skruffy points out that we've gotten it
backwards in the code.

In this patch, we make the default P256 for everybody.

Fixes bug 9780; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.

Nick Mathewson f8b44eedf7 Get ready to stop sending timestamps in INTRODUCE cells
For now, round down to the nearest 10 minutes.  Later, eliminate entirely by
setting a consensus parameter.

(This rounding is safe because, in 0.2.2, where the timestamp mattered,
REND_REPLAY_TIME_INTERVAL was a nice generous 60 minutes.)

Nick Mathewson 2e1fe1fcf9 Implement a real OOM-killer for too-long circuit queues.
This implements "algorithm 1" from my discussion of bug #9072: on OOM,
find the circuits with the longest queues, and kill them.  It's also a
fix for #9063 -- without the side-effects of bug #9072.

The memory bounds aren't perfect here, and you need to be sure to
allow some slack for the rest of Tor's usage.

This isn't a perfect fix; the rest of the solutions I describe on
codeable.

Nick Mathewson 74a534be15 Fix the biggest errors in doc/HACKING
We can wait for 0.2.5 for a full rewrite.  #8964
2013-06-12 21:27:30 -04:00
Nick Mathewson a3f6f3316a Remove various outdated documents.
doc/TODO and doc/spec/README were placeholders to tell people where to
look for the real TODO and README stuff -- we replaced them years ago,
though.

authority-policy, v3-authority-howto, and torel-design.txt belong in
torspec.  I'm putting them in attic there since I think they may be in
large part obsolete, but someone can rescue them if they're not.

translations.txt is outdated, and refers to lots of programs other
than Tor.  We have much better translation resources on the website
now.

tor-win32-mingw-creation.txt is pending review of a revised version
for 0.2.5 (see ticket #4520), but there's no reason to ship this one
while we're waiting for an accurate version.

the tor-rpm-creation.txt isn't obsolete AFAIK, but it belongs in
doc/contrib if anywhere.

Resolves bug #8965.

Fixes 8240.

(Don't actually increase the default guard lifetime. It seems likely to
break too many things if done precipitiously.)

Nick Mathewson 4740d2e8bc Remove some lingering tsocks cruft.
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.
