Comment (by sisbell):
I followed the steps to reproduce. It takes me about a dozen times of
configuring a new bridge and reconnecting to see the problem but it does
show up.
pid 31900 is the currently starting (original) tor process. When I
reconnected, I briefly see two new tor processes starting (not sure how we
get two here): pid 32088 and 32092. Then a second later, those new
processes die with the CookieAuth failure.
{{{
adb shell ps -ef | grep libTor
u0_a236 31900 1 11 09:52:50 ? 00:00:18 libTor.so -f
/data/user/0/org.torproject.torbrowser_alpha/app_torservice/torrc
__OwningControllerProcess 31391
u0_a236 32088 31391 2 09:55:41 ? 00:00:00 libTor.so -f
/data/user/0/org.torproject.torbrowser_alpha/app_torservice/torrc
__OwningControllerProcess 31391
u0_a236 32091 32088 0 09:55:41 ? 00:00:00 [libTor.so]
u0_a236 32092 1 0 09:55:41 ? 00:00:00 libTor.so -f
/data/user/0/org.torproject.torbrowser_alpha/app_torservice/torrc
__OwningControllerProcess 31391
adb shell ps -ef | grep libTor
u0_a236 31900 1 10 09:52:50 ? 00:00:18 libTor.so -f
/data/user/0/org.torproject.torbrowser_alpha/app_torservice/torrc
__OwningControllerProcess 31391
}}}
So we can see this is related to not cleaning up the existing tor process.
I believe this can be handled as a check: before starting any tor process,
cleanup old processes (either done in TOPL or tor-android-service).
