commit 670d4026219534558c809c48ba36b905d18ce35f Author: teor <teor@torproject.org> Date: Fri Sep 6 16:23:58 2019 +1000 entrynodes: Make routine descriptor expiry notice logs less alarming When tor is missing descriptors for some primary entry guards, make the log message less alarming. It's normal for descriptors to expire, as long as tor fetches new ones soon after. Fixes bug 31657; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha. --- changes/bug31657 | 5 +++++ src/feature/client/entrynodes.c | 3 ++- src/test/test_entrynodes.c | 3 ++- 3 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/changes/bug31657 b/changes/bug31657 new file mode 100644 index 000000000..08e9d95fd --- /dev/null +++ b/changes/bug31657 @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ + o Minor bugfixes (guards): + - When tor is missing descriptors for some primary entry guards, make the + log message less alarming.
