Re: ShutdownWaitLength vs. 'restart' in init scripts

If the package came from Fedoras repository they may use their own
init-scripts. Contact Fedoras bugreporting.

 Hi folks,
 
 I noticed a problem with the init script I have with the tor package on
 Fedora 10.  The 'restart' command (just a start and stop) sends a -INT
 to the running process, but doesn't account for ShutdownWaitLength.  It
 looks like the old server instance unbinds, so the new one can start up,
 but then when the old one is really ready to die, it takes them all out,
 which leaves an inconsistent lockfile state and no tor running.  I first
 noticed this on a version upgrade (which runs a 'restart').
 
 Looks like this:
   Jun 22 22:09:39.260 [notice] Performing bandwidth self-test...done.
 
 
   Jun 22 22:09:57.620 [notice] Clean shutdown
 
 So, I'm curious what other folks are doing to handle this.  I'm thinking
 in order of preference:
 
  * wait for the pid file to disappear
  * extract ShutdownWaitLength from the config and wait that long
  * send a double -INT on stop()
  * wait 30 seconds
 
 or, perhaps even better: fixing the server shutdown process so the old
 server can't take out the new server.
 
 But today is the first time I've ever run a tor relay, and I don't know
 the codebase or what I don't know, so pointers appreciated from those
 who may have already figured this out.
 
 Thanks,
 -Bill

oh, sure this has been known for a long time. In fact, the CIA will even 
pay you (much like google adsense) per MB that you allow them to 
intercept upon exit.


At $0.20USD/MB I was able to supplement my regular income. Soon I'll be 
able to quit my regular job. It's like all of those emails say, let your 
computer work for you!

Tor 0.2.1.16-rc is out

2009-06-23 Thread Roger Dingledine
Tor 0.2.1.16-rc speeds up performance for fast exit relays, and fixes
a bunch of minor bugs.

https://www.torproject.org/download.html.en

Changes in version 0.2.1.16-rc - 2009-06-20
  o Security fixes:
- Fix an edge case where a malicious exit relay could convince a
  controller that the client's DNS question resolves to an internal IP
  address. Bug found and fixed by optimist; bugfix on 0.1.2.8-beta.

  o Major performance improvements (on 0.2.0.x):
- Disable and refactor some debugging checks that forced a linear scan
  over the whole server-side DNS cache. These accounted for over 50%
  of CPU time on a relatively busy exit node's gprof profile. Found
  by Jacob.
- Disable some debugging checks that appeared in exit node profile
  data.

  o Minor features:
- Update to the June 3 2009 ip-to-country file.
- Do not have tor-resolve automatically refuse all .onion addresses;
  if AutomapHostsOnResolve is set in your torrc, this will work fine.

  o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.0.x):
- Log correct error messages for DNS-related network errors on
  Windows.
- Fix a race condition that could cause crashes or memory corruption
  when running as a server with a controller listening for log
  messages.
- Avoid crashing when we have a policy specified in a DirPolicy or
  SocksPolicy or ReachableAddresses option with ports set on it,
  and we re-load the policy. May fix bug 996.
- Hidden service clients didn't use a cached service descriptor that
  was older than 15 minutes, but wouldn't fetch a new one either,
  because there was already one in the cache. Now, fetch a v2
  descriptor unless the same descriptor was added to the cache within
  the last 15 minutes. Fixes bug 997; reported by Marcus Griep.

  o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.1.x):
- Don't warn users about low port and hibernation mix when they
  provide a *ListenAddress directive to fix that. Bugfix on
  0.2.1.15-rc.
- When switching back and forth between bridge mode, do not start
  gathering GeoIP data until two hours have passed.
- Do not complain that the user has requested an excluded node as
  an exit when the node is not really an exit. This could happen
  because the circuit was for testing, or an introduction point.
  Fix for bug 984.

 Please check ReactorRelay's date and time. At present, concerning of the

moria2 is only a v2 directory authority. You are looking at obsolete
directory authorities and an obsolete directory protocol.

There does exist a torstatus that looks at v3 information. See e.g.
http://trunk.torstatus.kgprog.com/index.php

In any case, you appear to be another of those edge cases where some of
the directory authorities can reach you, and some of them can't.

moria1 can reach you:

So the pattern is America finds you reachable, and Europe finds you
unreachable.

Is your firewall set up in a funny way? Does your hosting provider have
its routing table broken?

Same pattern of authority opinions too!

If go through the log I have sent you, you can easily find out that
ReactorRelay has different statements (from Exit to Valid) on the each
directory servers at the same time.

Can you please let me know why it happens?

 I see that Roger has already answered w.r.t. the proximal cause, and
I have no way to pursue the original cause.  As he pointed out, it could
be due to some incorrect change made by your ISP/hosting company.
 My point regarding the more recent descriptor was simply to show that
a) it was more recent than the ones you showed and b) the uptime was less
than ten minutes.  However, the difference in opinion among the authorities
regarding the Running flag is troubling and suggests that restart was
likely not the source of the problem, so I'm at a loss here.

150% jump, in such a short time. Not sure
I'd welcome that so soon. I don't have a copy
of the old cache files from before the jump
began. But if someone does, consider putting
them up on a filehost or analyzing it a bit more.
This really should be looked at in more detail
before chalking it up to .ir or friendlies. And
how does this correspond to prior slashdot/digg
jumps.
