Changes in version 0.3.2.7-rc - 2017-12-1?
- Tor 0.3.2.7-rc fixes various bugs in earlier versions of Tor, including
- some that could affect reliability or correctness.

- This is the first release candidate in the 0.3.2 series. If we find no
- new bugs or regression here, then the first stable 0.3.2. release will be

o Major bugfixes (circuit prediction):
- - Fix circuit prediction logic so that a client doesn't treat a stream as
- being "handled" by a circuit if that circuit already has isolation
- settings on it that might make it incompatible with the stream. This
- change should make Tor clients more responsive by improving their
- chances of having a pre-created circuit ready for use when a new client
- request arrives. Fixes bug 18859; bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha.

o Minor features (logging):
- - Provide better warnings when the getrandom() syscall fails.

+ - Provide better warnings when the getrandom() syscall fails. Closes
+ ticket 24500.
o Minor features (portability):
- Tor now compiles correctly on arm64 with libseccomp-dev installed.
- (It doesn't yet work with the sandbox enabled.) Closes ticket 24424.
-
- o Minor bugfix (KIST scheduler):
- - Downgrade a warning to log info when the monotonic time diff is
- negative. This can happen on platform not supporting monotonic time. The
- scheduler recovers from this without any problem. Fixes bug 23696;
- bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
+ (It doesn't yet work with the sandbox enabled.) Closes
+ ticket 24424.
o Minor bugfixes (bridge clients, bootstrap):
- Retry directory downloads when we get our first bridge descriptor
- during bootstrap or while reconnecting to the network. Keep retrying
- every time we get a bridge descriptor, until we have a reachable bridge.
- Fixes bug 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
+ during bootstrap or while reconnecting to the network. Keep

- Stop delaying bridge descriptor fetches when we have cached bridge
descriptors. Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when we
- have at least one reachable bridge.
- Fixes bug 24367; bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.

- Instead, only delay bridge descriptor fetches when all our bridges are
- definitely unreachable.

o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
- - Fix a signed/unsigned comparison warning introduced by our

+ - Fix a signed/unsigned comparison warning introduced by our fix to
+ TROVE-2017-009. Fixes bug 24480; bugfix on 0.2.5.16.
o Minor bugfixes (correctness):
- - Fix several places in our codebase where a C compiler would be likely
- to eliminate a check, based on assuming that undefined behavior had not
- happened elsewhere in the code. These cases are usually a sign of
- redundant checking, or dubious arithmetic. Found by Georg Koppen using
- the "STACK" tool from Wang, Zeldovich, Kaashoek, and
- Solar-Lezama. Fixes bug 24423; bugfix on various Tor versions.
-
- o Minor bugfixes (hidden service v3):
- - Fix a race between the circuit close and free where the service would
- launch a new intro circuit after the close, and then fail to register it
- before the free of the previously closed circuit. This was making the
- service unable to find the established intro circuit and thus not upload
- its descriptor. It can make a service unavailable for up to 24 hours.
- Fixes bug 23603; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
-
- o Minor bugfixes (scheduler):
- - Properly set the scheduler state of an unopened channel in the KIST
- scheduler main loop. This prevents a harmless but annoying log warning.
- Fixes bug 24502; bugfix on 0.3.2.4-alpha.

o Minor bugfixes (scheduler, KIST):
- - Avoid a possible integer overflow when computing the available space on
- the TCP buffer of a channel. This has no security implications but can
- make KIST not behave properly by allowing more cells on a already

saturated connection. Fixes bug 24590; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
