commit bcc953307b571df5b640f9fbc299b93c74d3847f Author: Nick Mathewson nickm@torproject.org Date: Tue Oct 19 15:16:49 2021 -0400
Move "Didn't recognize cell, but circ stops here" into heartbeat.
When we looked, this was the third most frequent message at PROTOCOL_WARN, and doesn't actually tell us what to do about it. Now: * we just log it at info * we log it only once per circuit * we report, in the heartbeat, how many times it happens, how many cells it happens with per circuit, and how long these circuits have been alive (on average).
Fixes the final part of #40400. --- changes/bug40400_part3 | 7 +++++++ src/core/or/circuitlist.c | 7 +++++++ src/core/or/or_circuit_st.h | 5 ++++- src/core/or/relay.c | 13 +++++++++++-- src/core/or/status.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/core/or/status.h | 3 +++ 6 files changed, 75 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
