#33649: Show progress towards flags on consensus health ------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: teor | Owner: tom Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Metrics/Consensus Health | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: network-health Actual Points: | Parent ID: Points: | Reviewer: Sponsor: | ------------------------------------------+---------------------------- Relay operators often ask us why they don't have a particular flag. For example: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays/2020-March/018253.html
When a relay doesn't have a flag, we could show relay operators how close their relay is to getting that flag. Showing progress would also help us diagnose hard-to-find bugs in tor. This could be a project that we do in stages. Here's a sketch of the flag-thresholds and per-relay vote data we'd need: Fast: * bandwidth * w Measured * (what happens for relays that aren't measured?) * fast-speed Stable: * uptime * add an uptime line to votes in tor * stable-uptime * mtbf * add a mtbf line to votes in tor * stable-mtbf * show both uptime and mtbf fractions Guard: * needs Fast * needs Stable * wfu - same as uptime? * add a wfu line to votes in tor * guard-wfu * tk - what is this? * add a tk line to votes in tor * guard-tk * is there a bandwidth or mtbf requirement for guards? * show wfu and tk fractions * show if it needs Fast and Stable - are these flags implied by wfu and tk? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33649> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
