Modernize codebase: C++17, remove Tor v2, add embedded Tor scaffold, IBD speedups
- Replace ~290 BOOST_FOREACH with C++11 range-for across 41+ files - Replace boost::assign::map_list_of with C++11 brace initialization - Remove PAIRTYPE macro (no longer needed without BOOST_FOREACH) - Guard OpenSSL locking callbacks for 3.x (no-ops in >= 1.1.0) - Fix Qt deprecated APIs for Qt6 compat (QStyleOptionViewItemV4, setResizeMode) - Add openssl_compat.h version string wrapper - Enable C++17 in makefile.unix and triangles-qt.pro - Delete 163 dead Tor v2 source files (~150K lines removed) - Add embedded Tor scaffold (tor_embedded.h/cpp) using tor_api.h - Add build-libtor.sh helper and CODEX-TOR-GUIDE.md - Update makefile.unix and .pro with USE_TOR_EMBEDDED optional flag - Fallback to external tor_process when not compiled with libtor - IBD pipeline refill: 100 -> 1000 blocks - Send/recv buffer limits: unlimited -> 100MB/32MB - Orphan block cap: unlimited -> 750 with random eviction - Socket poll: 10ms -> 1ms during IBD - Message handler sleep: 10ms -> 1ms during IBD - Stall detection timeout: 5s -> 2s Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Embedded Tor Rebase Notes
|
||||
|
||||
This repository currently contains a legacy Tor source snapshot under
|
||||
`src/tor/`, but the wallet target does not build most of that tree.
|
||||
|
||||
## Current state
|
||||
|
||||
- The vendored Tor headers report `0.2.5.1-alpha-dev` in:
|
||||
- `src/tor/orconfig_linux.h`
|
||||
- `src/tor/orconfig_apple.h`
|
||||
- `src/tor/orconfig_win32.h`
|
||||
- The Qt wallet target currently builds only these Tor-related sources:
|
||||
- `src/tor_embed_hooks.cpp`
|
||||
- `src/tor/onion_v3.cpp`
|
||||
- `src/tor/tor_process.cpp`
|
||||
- This means the large legacy `src/tor/` tree is mostly dormant from the
|
||||
wallet build's perspective.
|
||||
|
||||
## Rebase target
|
||||
|
||||
- Target upstream Tor line: `0.4.9.x`
|
||||
- Imported source tree: `src/tor/tor-src`
|
||||
- Imported branch: `release-0.4.9`
|
||||
- Imported commit: `1442ca4`
|
||||
|
||||
## Why this matters
|
||||
|
||||
Attempting to "upgrade embedded Tor" by rebasing the entire old source tree in
|
||||
place is unnecessarily expensive if the wallet is only relying on:
|
||||
|
||||
- process management for a bundled Tor executable
|
||||
- Tor v3 onion address/key handling
|
||||
- a few local embedding hooks
|
||||
|
||||
The migration should preserve the embedded product experience while reducing
|
||||
coupling to legacy upstream Tor internals.
|
||||
|
||||
## Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
1. Keep the product-level embedding model.
|
||||
- The wallet can still ship with Tor and launch it automatically.
|
||||
2. Separate Triangles-owned glue from vendored Tor code.
|
||||
- `src/tor_embed_hooks.*` now holds local process/bootstrap helpers that
|
||||
previously lived under `src/tor/anonymize.*`.
|
||||
3. Treat `src/tor/onion_v3.cpp` and `src/tor/tor_process.cpp` as the active
|
||||
compatibility boundary.
|
||||
4. Re-vendor a newer upstream Tor snapshot only after deciding whether the
|
||||
product truly needs upstream Tor source in-tree or only a bundled Tor
|
||||
runtime plus the wallet's own v3/onion management code.
|
||||
|
||||
## Immediate next tasks
|
||||
|
||||
1. Audit whether any live build target still includes legacy `src/tor/*.c`
|
||||
sources beyond the current wallet target.
|
||||
2. Decide whether `onion_v3.cpp` should remain wallet-owned code or be reduced
|
||||
further in favor of runtime Tor control/provisioning.
|
||||
3. Add build metadata recording the intended upstream Tor version and source.
|
||||
4. If full upstream vendoring is still required, import a fresh `0.4.8.19`
|
||||
tree side-by-side instead of trying to patch the legacy `0.2.5.1` tree.
