+Changes in version 0.3.5.7 - 2019-01-07
+ Blurb.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (relay, directory):
+ - Always reactivate linked connections in the mainloop so long as
+ any linked connection has been active. 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. Closes
+ ticket 28881.
