[arm/release] Lowering unrecognized event type logging to INFO

commit b2f278f33492ad41f5208479a0f37a96c898b395 Author: Damian Johnson <atagar(a)torproject.org> Date: Thu Apr 26 20:21:13 2012 -0700 Lowering unrecognized event type logging to INFO Unrecognized event types are neither important nor something that a user can be expected to fix. Actually, it's an issue for the controller library (torctl or stem). Dropping these below the default runlevel. Arm is currently complaining about SIGNAL and CONF_CHANGED not being recognized. If torctl doesn't add support for these then this won't be addressed until our move to stem. --- armrc.sample | 2 +- src/cli/controller.py | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/armrc.sample b/armrc.sample index 7a611c0..c38bcfc 100644 --- a/armrc.sample +++ b/armrc.sample @@ -277,7 +277,7 @@ log.torGetInfoCache NONE log.torGetConf DEBUG log.torGetConfCache NONE log.torSetConf INFO -log.torEventTypeUnrecognized NOTICE +log.torEventTypeUnrecognized INFO log.torPrefixPathInvalid NOTICE log.procCallMade DEBUG log.sysCallMade DEBUG diff --git a/src/cli/controller.py b/src/cli/controller.py index 4bef5ec..c46911c 100644 --- a/src/cli/controller.py +++ b/src/cli/controller.py @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ CONFIG = {"startup.events": "N3", "features.graph.bw.prepopulate": True, "wizard.default": {}, "log.startTime": log.INFO, - "log.torEventTypeUnrecognized": log.NOTICE, + "log.torEventTypeUnrecognized": log.INFO, "log.configEntryUndefined": log.NOTICE, "log.unknownTorPid": log.WARN}

[arm/release] Circuits wouldn't be updated when connection resolution failed
by atagar＠torproject.org 29 Apr '12

commit 5e2bc2229eafc81cc26c46529ed812add14a66f2 Author: Damian Johnson <atagar(a)torproject.org> Date: Thu Apr 26 19:31:24 2012 -0700 Circuits wouldn't be updated when connection resolution failed The connecion panel provides information from two sources: connections from system utilities and circuits from tor. We had a check that prevented the connection panel from being updated when the former didn't have any new information, which in turn broke the panel entirely when connection resolvers either failed or were disabled. The 'is new connecion results available' check was actually pretty pointless. The update method gets called every five seconds and the connection resolvers operate at a similar rate (maybe every ten seconds? it depends on resolver performance) so it didn't actually buy us much.

This is a new page or standalone prompt that gives raw control port access with several usability improvements (tab completion, history, irc style help, interpretor commands, etc).

[arm/release] Improving tor detection for BSD platforms

commit b1fce355c3661324f477e2698a08214035d09c10 Author: Damian Johnson <atagar(a)torproject.org> Date: Tue Oct 11 08:47:05 2011 -0700 Improving tor detection for BSD platforms Linux and BSD platforms (mac, openbsd, and freebsd) have distinct argument sets for their ps resolvers. Taking into account for this for tor detection, guessing the family based on uname results then trying both if we guess wrong. Adding the '-a' argument to get results for all users thanks to Jordi Espasa Clofent. Tested this ps command on Mac and OpenBSD, and just guessing that FreeBSD will behave the same. --- src/util/torTools.py | 31 +++++++++++++++++++------------ 1 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/util/torTools.py b/src/util/torTools.py index 34c9adc..a4ab70c 100644 --- a/src/util/torTools.py +++ b/src/util/torTools.py @@ -350,20 +350,27 @@ def isTorRunning(): then this returns False.
