[tor-bugs] #9222 [Tor]: Torrc's bandwidth entries are more flexible than documented
#9222: Torrc's bandwidth entries are more flexible than documented

According to the tor man page the permitted format for bandwidth entries
is pretty simple...
{{{
RelayBandwidthRate N bytes|KB|MB|GB
}}}
Arm parses these to check if the torrc is out of sync with tor's actual
state (ie, that the user edited their configuration without restarting or
issuing a sighup). However, a user inadvertently found that tor is
actually more flexible on these lines that what the man page documents...
{{{
12:54 < atagar> What is the exact torrc lines that you have?
12:55 < Urban_core> RelayBandwidthRate 250Kbytes # Throttle traffic to
100KB/s (800Kbps)
12:55 < Urban_core> RelayBandwidthBurst 350Kbytes # But allow bursts up
to 200KB/s (1600Kbps)
}}}
Once this is fixed in the tor man page please assign this to the arm
component and I'll fix it on my end.
