Fixes bug + 31898; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (torrc): + - Stop ignoring torrc options after an %include directive, when the + included directory ends with a file that does not contain any config + options. (But does contain comments or whitespace.) + Fixes bug 31408; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor features (authority): + - Directory authorities now reject relays running all currently + deprecated release series. The currently supported release series + are: 0.2.9, 0.3.5, 0.4.0, 0.4.1, and 0.4.2. Closes ticket 31549. + + o Minor features (auto-formatting scripts): + - When annotating C macros, never generate a line that our check-spaces + script would reject. Closes ticket 31759. + - When annotating C macros, try to remove cases of double-negation. + Closes ticket 31779. + + o Minor features (continuous integration): + - When building on Appveyor, pass the "-k" flag to make, so that + we are informed of all compilation failures, not just the first + one or two. Closes part of ticket 31372. + - When building on Travis, pass the "-k" flag to make, so that + we are informed of all compilation failures, not just the first + one or two. Closes part of ticket 31372. + + o Minor features (geoip): + - Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 1 2019 Maxmind GeoLite2 + Country database. Closes ticket 31931. + + o Minor features (maintenance scripts): + - Add a coccinelle script to detect bugs caused by incrementing or + decrementing a variable inside a call to log_debug(). Since + log_debug() is a macro whose arguments are conditionally evaluated, it + is usually an error to do this. One such bug was 30628, in which SENDME + cells were miscounted by a decrement operator inside a log_debug() + call. Closes ticket 30743. + + o Minor features (onion services v3): + - Assist users who try to setup v2 client authorization in v3 onion + services by pointing them to the right documentation. Closes ticket + 28966. + + o Minor bugfixes (Appveyor CI): + - Avoid spurious errors when Appveyor CI fails before the install step. + Fixes bug 31884; bugfix on 0.3.4.2-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (best practices tracker): + - When listing overbroad exceptions, do not also list problems, + and do not list insufficiently broad exceptions. Fixes bug 31338; + bugfix on 0.4.2.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (controller protocol): + - Fix the MAPADDRESS controller command to accept one or more + arguments. Previously, it required two or more arguments, and ignored + the first. Fixes bug 31772; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging): + - Add a missing check for HAVE_PTHREAD_H, because the backtrace code uses + mutexes. Fixes bug 31614; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha. + - Disable backtrace signal handlers when shutting down tor. + Fixes bug 31614; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha. + - Rate-limit our the logging message about the obsolete .exit notation. + Previously, there was no limit on this warning, which could potentially + be triggered many times by a hostile website. Fixes bug 31466; + bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha. + - When initialising log domain masks, only set known log domains. + Fixes bug 31854; bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (logging, protocol violations): + - Do not log a nonfatal assertion failure when receiving a VERSIONS + cell on a connection using the obsolete v1 link protocol. Log a + protocol_warn instead. Fixes bug 31107; bugfix on 0.2.4.4-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (modules): + - Explain what the optional Directory Authority module is, and what + happens when it is disabled. Fixes bug 31825; bugfix on 0.3.4.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (multithreading): + - Avoid some undefined behaviour when freeing mutexes. + Fixes bug 31736; bugfix on 0.0.7. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay): + - Avoid crashing when starting with a corrupt keys directory where + the old ntor key and the new ntor key are identical. Fixes bug 30916; + bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (tests, SunOS): + - Avoid a map_anon_nofork test failure due to a signed/unsigned integer + comparison. Fixes bug 31897; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha. + + o Code simplification and refactoring (onion services): + - Interface for function `decrypt_desc_layer` cleaned up. Closes ticket 31589. + + o Code simplification and refactoring: + - Refactor connection_control_process_inbuf() to reduce the size of a + practracker exception. Closes ticket 31840. + - Refactor the microdescs_parse_from_string() function into smaller + pieces, for better comprehensibility. Closes ticket 31675. + - Use SEVERITY_MASK_IDX() to find the LOG_* mask indexes in the unit + tests and fuzzers, rather than using hard-coded values. + Closes ticket 31334. + + o Documentation: + - Document the signal-safe logging behaviour in the tor man page. Also + add some comments to the relevant functions. Closes ticket 31839. + - Explain why we can't destroy the backtrace buffer mutex. Explain why + we don't need to destroy the log mutex. + Closes ticket 31736. + - The Tor source code repository now includes a (somewhat dated) + description of Tor's modular architecture, in doc/HACKING/design. + This is based on the old "tor-guts.git" repository, which we are + adopting and superseding. Closes ticket 31849. + + Changes in version 0.4.1.6 - 2019-09-19 This release backports several bugfixes to improve stability and correctness.
