+Nick's initial priorities for Tor 0.2.2:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+NOTE 1: I'm not looking at fiddly little stuff from TODO.021 yet. We
|
|
|
+ can do a step where we triage the nice-to-have issues.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+NOTE 2: It's easy to list stuff like this with no time estimates and
|
|
|
+ no target dates. I think we should pick a target date for
|
|
|
+ 0.2.2, figure out how long the stuff we want will take, and
|
|
|
+ triage accordingly, or vice versa.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Design
|
|
|
+ - Begin design work for UDP transition; identify areas where we need to
|
|
|
+ make changes or instrument stuff early.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Performance, mostly protocol-neutral.
|
|
|
+ - Work with Libevent 2.0's bufferevent interface
|
|
|
+ - Identify any performance stuff we need to push back into
|
|
|
+ libevent to make it as fast as we want.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Revise how we do bandwidth limiting and round-robining between
|
|
|
+ circuits on a connection.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Revise how we do bandwidth limiting and round-robining between
|
|
|
+ connections.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Better flow-control to avoid filling buffers on routers.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Split AES across cores if possible.
|
|
|
+ - Split SSL across cores (reach; may require Libevent 2.1).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Figure out good ways to instrument Tor internals so we can tell
|
|
|
+ how well our bandwidth and flow-control stuff is actually working.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Features
|
|
|
+ - Proposals to implement:
|
|
|
+ - 146: reflect long-term stability
|
|
|
+ - 147: Stop using v2 directories to generate v3 votes.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Proposals to improve and implement
|
|
|
+ - 158: microdescriptors
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Proposals to improve and implement if not broken
|
|
|
+ - IPv6 support. (Parts of 117, but figure out how to handle DNS
|
|
|
+ requests.)
|
|
|
+ - 140: Directory diffs
|
|
|
+ - 149: learn info from netinfo cells.
|
|
|
+ - 134: handle authority fragmentation (Needs more analysis)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Deprecations
|
|
|
+ - Make .exit safe, or make it off-by-default.
