[tor-bugs] #19129 [Core Tor/Tor]: Allow Fallback Directories with no DirPort
#19129: Allow Fallback Directories with no DirPort
------------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: teor | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new

------------------------------+--------------------------
In #12538, we made almost every relay support begindir-style directory
fetches. In #18483, we made clients never use DirPorts. Both of these
features are scheduled for 0.2.8.
Eventually, we can allow fallback directories with no DirPort.
(Perhaps this works already with a zero DirPort?)
If we implement #7798, we might want this feature, but only for directory
guards in the state file.
If we want to include fallback directories with no DirPort in the default
fallback list, we will need to make some some changes to the fallback
directory checks in scripts/maint/updateFallbackDirs.py. In particular,
stem can't do begindir, so it will be harder to verify these fallback
directories have connectivity and support begindir. So maybe we should
require a DirPort for fallback directories for the moment.
