o Major features (directory mirrors):
|
|
|
- Include an opt-in trial list of Default Fallback Directories in
|
|
|
- add_default_fallback_dir_servers().
|
|
|
- "Tor has included a feature to fetch the initial consensus from nodes
|
|
|
- other than the authorities for a while now. We just haven't shipped a
|
|
|
- list of alternate locations for clients to go to yet.
|
|
|
- Reasons why we might want to ship tor with a list of additional places
|
|
|
- where clients can find the consensus is that it makes authority
|
|
|
- reachability and BW less important.
|
|
|
- We want them to have been around and using their current key, address,
|
|
|
- and port for a while now (120 days), and have been running, a guard,
|
|
|
- and a v2 directory mirror for most of that time."
|
|
|
- We exclude BadExits and tor versions that aren't recommended.
|
|
|
- We include an IPv6 address for each FallbackDir (see ticket 8374).
|
|
|
- (Tor might not use IPv6 fallbacks until ticket the code for ticket6027 is merged.)
|
|
|
- The unit test ensures that we successfully load all included
|
|
|
- default fallback directories.
|
|
|
+ add_default_fallback_dir_servers(). Doing this should improve
|
|
|
+ client reliability and initial bootstrap performance, and reduce
|
|
|
+ load on the directory authorities.

o Minor features (directory system):

- Previously only relays who explicitly opened a directory port (DirPort)

- accepted directory requests from clients. Now all relays, with and without

- a DirPort, who do not disable the DirCache option accept and serve

- directory requests sent (tunnelled) through their ORPort.

o Code simplification and refactoring:

- - Extract the more complicated parts of circuit_mark_for_close into

- This change removes more than half of the functions currently
