Comment:
Now that I've read connection_dir_client_reached_eof(), where we also warn
about inaccurate clocks, I think it would be nice to make both messages
consistent.
We could also refactor the message generation so that it's in a common
function.
Here's the current code from connection_dir_client_reached_eof():
{{{
log_fn(trusted ? LOG_WARN : LOG_INFO,
LD_HTTP,
"Received directory with skewed time (server '%s:%d'): "
"It seems that our clock is %s by %s, or that theirs is %s. "
"Tor requires an accurate clock to work: please check your
time, "
"timezone, and date settings.",
conn->base_.address, conn->base_.port,
delta>0 ? "ahead" : "behind", dbuf,
delta>0 ? "behind" : "ahead");
}}}
