+Changes in version 0.4.1.7 - 2019-12-09
+ This release backports several bugfixes to improve stability and
+ correctness. Anyone experiencing build problems or crashes with 0.4.1.6,
+ including all relays relying on AccountingMax, should upgrade.
+
+ o Major features (directory authorities, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Directory authorities now reject relays running all currently
+ deprecated release series. The currently supported release series
+ are: 0.2.9, 0.3.5, 0.4.0, 0.4.1, and 0.4.2. Closes ticket 31549.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (embedded Tor, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Avoid a possible crash when restarting Tor in embedded mode and
+ enabling a different set of publish/subscribe messages. Fixes bug
+ 31898; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Relays now respect their AccountingMax bandwidth again. When
+ relays entered "soft" hibernation (which typically starts when
+ we've hit 90% of our AccountingMax), we had stopped checking
+ whether we should enter hard hibernation. Soft hibernation refuses
+ new connections and new circuits, but the existing circuits can
+ continue, meaning that relays could have exceeded their configured
+ AccountingMax. Fixes bug 32108; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (torrc parsing, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Stop ignoring torrc options after an %include directive, when the
+ included directory ends with a file that does not contain any
+ config options (but does contain comments or whitespace). Fixes
+ bug 31408; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (v3 onion services, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Onion services now always use the exact number of intro points
+ configured with the HiddenServiceNumIntroductionPoints option (or
+ fewer if nodes are excluded). Before, a service could sometimes
+ pick more intro points than configured. Fixes bug 31548; bugfix
+ on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor features (continuous integration, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - When building on Appveyor and Travis, pass the "-k" flag to make,
+ so that we are informed of all compilation failures, not just the
+ first one or two. Closes ticket 31372.
+
+ o Minor features (geoip, backport from 0.4.2.5):
+ - Update geoip and geoip6 to the December 3 2019 Maxmind GeoLite2
+ Country database. Closes ticket 32685.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (Appveyor CI, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Avoid spurious errors when Appveyor CI fails before the install step.
+ Fixes bug 31884; bugfix on 0.3.4.2-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (client, onion service v3, backport from 0.4.2.4-rc):
+ - Fix a BUG() assertion that occurs within a very small race window
+ between when a client intro circuit opens and when its descriptor
+ gets cleaned up from the cache. The circuit is now closed early,
+ which will trigger a re-fetch of the descriptor and continue the
+ connection. Fixes bug 28970; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (connections, backport from 0.4.2.3-rc):
+ - Avoid trying to read data from closed connections, which can cause
+ needless loops in Libevent and infinite loops in Shadow. Fixes bug
+ 30344; bugfix on 0.1.1.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (error handling, backport from 0.4.2.1-alpha):
+ - On abort, try harder to flush the output buffers of log messages.
+ On some platforms (macOS), log messages could be discarded when
+ the process terminates. Fixes bug 31571; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
+ - Report the tor version whenever an assertion fails. Previously, we
+ only reported the Tor version on some crashes, and some non-fatal
+ assertions. Fixes bug 31571; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
+ - When tor aborts due to an error, close log file descriptors before
+ aborting. Closing the logs makes some OSes flush log file buffers,
+ rather than deleting buffered log lines. Fixes bug 31594; bugfix
+ on 0.2.5.2-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (logging, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Add a missing check for HAVE_PTHREAD_H, because the backtrace code
+ uses mutexes. Fixes bug 31614; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha.
+ - Disable backtrace signal handlers when shutting down tor. Fixes
+ bug 31614; bugfix on 0.2.5.2-alpha.
+ - Rate-limit our the logging message about the obsolete .exit
+ notation. Previously, there was no limit on this warning, which
+ could potentially be triggered many times by a hostile website.
+ Fixes bug 31466; bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (logging, protocol violations, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Do not log a nonfatal assertion failure when receiving a VERSIONS
+ cell on a connection using the obsolete v1 link protocol. Log a
+ protocol_warn instead. Fixes bug 31107; bugfix on 0.2.4.4-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (mainloop, periodic events, in-process API, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Reset the periodic events' "enabled" flag when Tor is shut down
+ cleanly. Previously, this flag was left on, which caused periodic
+ events not to be re-enabled when Tor was relaunched in-process
+ with tor_api.h after a shutdown. Fixes bug 32058; bugfix
+ on 0.3.3.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (multithreading, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Avoid some undefined behaviour when freeing mutexes. Fixes bug
+ 31736; bugfix on 0.0.7.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (process management, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Remove overly strict assertions that triggered when a pluggable
+ transport failed to launch. Fixes bug 31091; bugfix
+ on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
+ - Remove an assertion in the Unix process backend. This assertion
+ would trigger when we failed to find the executable for a child
+ process. Fixes bug 31810; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Avoid crashing when starting with a corrupt keys directory where
+ the old ntor key and the new ntor key are identical. Fixes bug
+ 30916; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (testing, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - When testing port rebinding, don't busy-wait for tor to log.
+ Instead, actually sleep for a short time before polling again.
+ Also improve the formatting of control commands and log messages.
+ Fixes bug 31837; bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (tests, SunOS, backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Avoid a map_anon_nofork test failure due to a signed/unsigned
+ integer comparison. Fixes bug 31897; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (tls, logging, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Log bugs about the TLS read buffer's length only once, rather than
+ filling the logs with similar warnings. Fixes bug 31939; bugfix
+ on 0.3.0.4-rc.
+
+ o Documentation (backport from 0.4.2.2-alpha):
+ - Explain why we can't destroy the backtrace buffer mutex. Explain
+ why we don't need to destroy the log mutex. Closes ticket 31736.
+
+ o Testing (continuous integration, backport from 0.4.2.3-alpha):
+ - Disable all but one Travis CI macOS build, to mitigate slow
+ scheduling of Travis macOS jobs. Closes ticket 32177.
+ - Run the chutney IPv6 networks as part of Travis CI. Closes
+ ticket 30860.
+ - Simplify the Travis CI build matrix, and optimise for build time.
+ Closes ticket 31859.
+ - Use Windows Server 2019 instead of Windows Server 2016 in our
+ Appveyor builds. Closes ticket 32086.
+
+ o Testing (continuous integration, backport from 0.4.2.4-rc):
+ - In Travis, use Xcode 11.2 on macOS 10.14. Closes ticket 32241.
+ - Use Ubuntu Bionic images for our Travis CI builds, so we can get a
+ recent version of coccinelle. But leave chutney on Ubuntu Trusty,
+ until we can fix some Bionic permissions issues (see ticket
+ 32240). Related to ticket 31919.
+ - Install the mingw OpenSSL package in Appveyor. This makes sure
+ that the OpenSSL headers and libraries match in Tor's Appveyor
+ builds. (This bug was triggered by an Appveyor image update.)
+ Fixes bug 32449; bugfix on 0.3.5.6-rc.
+
+ o Testing (continuous integration, backport from 0.4.2.5):
+ - Require C99 standards-conforming code in Travis CI, but allow GNU gcc
+ extensions. Also activates clang's -Wtypedef-redefinition warnings.
+ Build some jobs with -std=gnu99, and some jobs without.
+ Closes ticket 32500.
