SERIES + BLURB GOES HERE. + + Per our support policy, we support each stable release series for nine + months after its first stable release, or three months after the first + stable release of the next series: whichever is longer. This means + that 0.4.4.x will be supported until around June 2021--or later, if + 0.4.5.x is later than anticipated. + + Note also that support for 0.4.2.x has just ended; support for 0.4.3 + will continue until Feb 15, 2021. We still plan to continue supporting + 0.3.5.x, our long-term stable series, until Feb 2022. + + Below are the changes since 0.4.4.4-rc. For a complete list of changes + since 0.4.3.5, see the ReleaseNotes file. + + o Major bugfixes (onion services, DoS): + - Correct handling of parameters for the onion service DoS defense. + Previously, the consensus parameters for the onion service DoS + defenses were overwriting the parameters set by the service + operator using HiddenServiceEnableIntroDoSDefense. Fixes bug + 40109; bugfix on 0.4.2.1-alpha. + + o Major bugfixes (stats, onion services): + - Fix a bug where we were undercounting the Tor network's total + onion service traffic, by ignoring any traffic originating from + clients. Now we count traffic from both clients and services. + Fixes bug 40117; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha. + + o Minor features (control port): + - If a ClientName was specified in ONION_CLIENT_AUTH_ADD for an + onion service, display it when we use ONION_CLIENT_AUTH_VIEW. + Closes ticket 40089. Patch by Neel Chauhan. + + o Minor features (denial-of-service memory limiter): + - Allow the user to configure even lower values for the + MaxMemInQueues parameter. Relays now enforce a minimum of 64 MB, + when previously the minimum was 256 MB. On clients, there is no + minimum. Relays and clients will both warn if the value is set so + low that Tor is likely to stop working. Closes ticket 24308. + + o Minor features (tests): + - Our "make check" target now runs the unit tests in 8 parallel + chunks. Doing this speeds up hardened CI builds by more than a + factor of two. Closes ticket 40098. + + o Minor bugfixes (guard selection algorithm): + - Avoid needless guard-related warning when upgrading from 0.4.3 to + 0.4.4. Fixes bug 40105; bugfix on 0.4.4.1-alpha. + + o Minor bugfixes (tests): + - Fix the behavior of the rend_cache/clean_v2_descs_as_dir when run + on its own. Previously, it would exit with an error. Fixes bug + 40099; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. + + Changes in version 0.4.4.4-rc - 2020-08-13 Tor 0.4.4.4-rc is the first release candidate in its series.
