Previously, connections + serving directory information wouldn't get reactivated after the + first chunk of data was sent (usually 32KB), which would prevent + clients from bootstrapping. Fixes bug 28912; bugfix on + 0.3.4.1-alpha. Patch by "cypherpunks3". + + o Minor features (compilation): + - When possible, place our warning flags in a separate file, to + avoid flooding verbose build logs. Closes ticket 28924. + + o Minor features (OpenSSL bug workaround): + - Work around a bug in OpenSSL 1.1.1a, which prevented the TLS 1.3 + key export function from handling long labels. When this bug is + detected, Tor will disable TLS 1.3. We recommend upgrading to a + version of OpenSSL without this bug when it becomes available. + Closes ticket 28973. + + o Minor features (performance): + - Remove about 96% of the work from the function that we run at + startup to test our curve25519_basepoint implementation. Since + this function has yet to find an actual failure, we now only run + it for 8 iterations instead of 200. Based on our profile + information, this change should save around 8% of our startup time + on typical desktops, and may have a similar effect on other + platforms. Closes ticket 28838. + - Stop re-validating our hardcoded Diffie-Hellman parameters on + every startup. Doing this wasted time and cycles, especially on + low-powered devices. Closes ticket 28851. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Fix compilation for Android by adding a missing header to + freespace.c. Fixes bug 28974; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (correctness): + - Fix an unreached code path where we checked the value of + "hostname" inside send_resolved_hostname_cell(). Previously, we + used it before checking it; now we check it first. Fixes bug + 28879; bugfix on 0.1.2.7-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (testing): + - Make sure that test_rebind.py actually obeys its timeout, even + when it receives a large number of log messages. Fixes bug 28883; + bugfix on 0.3.5.4-alpha. + - Stop running stem's unit tests as part of "make test-stem", but + continue to run stem's unit and online tests during "make test- + stem-full". Fixes bug 28568; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (windows services): + - Make Tor start correctly as an NT service again: previously it was + broken by refactoring. Fixes bug 28612; bugfix on 0.3.5.3-alpha. + + o Code simplification and refactoring: + - When parsing a port configuration, make it more obvious to static + analyzer tools that we always initialize the address.
