Foolscap has limitations that prevent us from accepting anything but a
TCP endpoint, but that will change in the future, so make the tahoe.cfg
syntax accept an endpoint, but then reject non-TCP ones. See the ticket
for details: refs ticket:2813.
This depends upon the new `foolscap.connections.tor.socks_port(host,
port)` API in foolscap-0.12.2, so it bumps the dependency to that (the
previous commit depended upon 0.12.1, but I hadn't gotten around to
updating the dep before now).
Note that many of the Foolscap handler-creation functions are still
stubbed out, so Tahoe won't be able to honor the full range of config
syntax until foolscap support is complete.
The node now attempts to create Tor/I2P connection handlers (if the
right libraries are available), and will use them for tor/i2p FURL hints
by default. For now it only creates default handlers: there is not yet
any code to interpret the `[tor]`/`[i2p]` sections of tahoe.cfg which
would let you override that process.
The node also parses the `[connections]` section, allowing `tcp: tor` to
use Tor for all outbound TCP connections. It defaults to `tcp: tcp`, of
course.
Static storage-server connections will now honor the `connections:`
overrides in `servers.yaml`, allowing specific servers to use TCP where
they would normally be restricted to Tor.

This adds Node._create_tub(), which knows how to make a Tub with all the
right options and connection handlers that were specified in
tahoe.cfg (the connection handlers are disabled for now, but they'll get
implemented soon).
The new Node.create_main_tub() calls it. This main Tub is used:
* to connect to the Introducer
* to host the Helper (if enabled)
* to host the Storage Server (if enabled)
Node._create_tub() is also passed into the StorageFarmBroker, which
passes it into each NativeStorageServer, to create the (separate) Tub
for each server connection. _create_tub knows about the options, and
NativeStorageServer can override the connection handlers. This way we
don't need to pass tub options or default handlers into Client,
StorageFarmBroker, or NativeStorageServer.
A number of tests create NativeStorageServer objects: these were updated
to match the new arguments. test_storage_client was simplified because
we no longer need to mock out the Tub() constructor.
This also removes the tahoe.cfg keys that would have configured the
control-port. And it deletes the logport.furl file before asking the Tub
to re-create it, because we're now using an ephemeral Tub (so we're not
persisting the private key, so the tubid will change each time).

This can be done synchronously because we now know the port number
earlier. This still uses get_local_addresses_sync() (not _async) to do
automatic IP-address detection if the config file didn't set
tub.location or used the special word "AUTO" in it.
The new implementation slightly changes the mapping from tub.location to
the assigned location string. The old code removed all instances of
"AUTO" from the location and then extended the hints with the local
ones (so "hint1:AUTO:hint2" turns into "hint1:hint2:auto1:auto2"). The
new code exactly replaces each "AUTO" with the local hints (so that
example turns into "hint1:auto1:auto2:hint2", and a silly
"hint1:AUTO:AUTO" would turn into "hint1:auto1:auto2:auto1:auto2"). This
is unlikely to affect anybody.
This is the first step towards making node startup be synchronous: the
tub.port is entirely determined (including any TCP port allocation that
might be necessary) before creating the Tub, so the portnumber part of
FURLs can be determined earlier.
This little-used debugging feature allowed you to SSH or Telnet "into" a
Tahoe node, and get an interactive Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) that
executed inside the context of the running process. The SSH
authentication code used a deprecated feature of Twisted, this code had
no unit-test coverage, and I haven't personally used it in at least 6
years (despite writing it in the first place). Time to go.
Also experiment with a Twisted-style "topfiles/" directory of NEWS
fragments. The idea is that we require all user-visible changes to
include a file or two (named as $TICKETNUM.$TYPE), and then run a script
to generate NEWS during the release process, instead of having a human
scan the commit logs and summarize the changes long after they landed.

Replaces the location 'AUTO' with the autodetected IP/port combination.

I want mode="w" (i.e. text, with newline conversion) for code that
writes newline-terminated strings (which should also be human readable)
to files. I like to use things like "cat .tahoe/permutation-seed"
without seeing the seed jammed together with the next command prompt.
Previously, test_runner sometimes fails because the _node_has_started()
poller fires after the portnum file has been opened, but before it has
actually been filled, allowing the test process to observe an empty file,
which flunks the test.
This adds a new fileutil.write_atomically() function (using the usual
write-to-.tmp-then-rename approach), and uses it for both node.url and
client.port . These files are written a bit before the node is really up and
running, but they're late enough for test_runner's purposes, which is to know
when it's safe to read client.port and use 'tahoe restart' (and therefore
SIGINT) to restart the node.
The current node/client code doesn't offer any better "are you really done
with startup" indicator.. the ideal approach would be to either watch the
logfile, or connect to its flogport, but both are a hassle. Changing the node
to write out a new "all done" file would be intrusive for regular
operations.
This introduces new client and server halves to the Introducer (renaming the
old one with a _V1 suffix). Both have fallbacks to accomodate talking to a
different version: the publishing client switches on whether the server's
.get_version() advertises V2 support, the server switches on which
subscription method was invoked by the subscribing client.
The V2 protocol sends a three-tuple of (serialized announcement dictionary,
signature, pubkey) for each announcement. The V2 server dispatches messages
to subscribers according to the service-name, and throws errors for invalid
signatures, but does not otherwise examine the messages. The V2 receiver's
subscription callback will receive a (serverid, ann_dict) pair. The
'serverid' will be equal to the pubkey if all of the following are true:
the originating client is V2, and was told a privkey to use
the announcement went through a V2 server
the signature is valid
If not, 'serverid' will be equal to the tubid portion of the announced FURL,
as was the case for V1 receivers.
Servers will create a keypair if one does not exist yet, stored in
private/server.privkey .
The signed announcement dictionary puts the server FURL in a key named
"anonymous-storage-FURL", which anticipates upcoming Accounting-related
changes in the server advertisements. It also provides a key named
"permutation-seed-base32" to tell clients what permutation seed to use. This
is computed at startup, using tubid if there are existing shares, otherwise
the pubkey, to retain share-order compatibility for existing servers.
Check for the existence of any of them and if any are found raise exception which will abort the startup of the node.
This is a backwards-incompatible change for anyone who is still using old-style configuration files.
