1 Tor for NaCl
2 =================
3 This is a port of Tor(core) to NaCl platform.
4 For details visit : https://www.torproject.org
5
6 **The port is functional albeit with some quirks, this document lists and
7 keeps track of all those.**
8
9 1. **Currently there is no reliable way of checking if another tor process is
10 running.**
11
12 **Reason:** NaCl don't support file locking(yet)
13
14 **Details:** Since Chrome 34, by default multiple windows per Chrome app
15 is not allowed,this should take care of the problem.
16 In the code, file locking is commented out altogether,
17 see /src/or/config.c [line 1379]
18
19 2. **Maximum file descriptors are hard coded to 15000**
20
21 **Reason:** getrlimit not implemented
22
23 3. **UID mismatch is ignored**
24
25 **Reason:** On NaCl, the UIDs are not preserved(properly)
26
27 **Details:** To debug/see implementation see /src/common/util.c [line 2195]
28
29 4. **Callbacks due to signals are NOT supported.**
30
31 **Reason:** nacl.io don't support POSIX signals.
32
33 **Details:** sigaction(...) and signal(...) are not(yet) implemented on
34 NaCl.io,thus the calls evsignal_add,evsignal_del,evsignal_pending should
35 be avoided,also event_add/event_del when passed with EV_SIGNAL will
36 also fail.
37
38 For details about these functions visit :
39 http://www.wangafu.net/~nickm/libevent-book/Ref4_event.html
40
41 To debug/see implementation (see libevent port)
42 Look for /event.c, /signal.c and /evmap.c
43 In /signal.c see function _evsig_set_handler and _evsig_restore_handler
44
45 Typical function call
46 event_add > event_add_internal > (if signal) evmap_signal_add > evsig_add
47
48 5. **Post build tests are skipped.**
49
50 **Reason:** There are some unresolved dependencies when compiled against
51 glibc + i686. For now they are altogether skipped for every
52 toolchain + architecture.[they work fine against clang-newlib]
53
54 6. **Build against glibc is not functional.**
55
56 **Reason:** unknown (issue de-prioritized,glibc disabled in pkg_info)
57
58 **Notes**
59
60 - Socket api is only allowed in chrome apps, remember to load
61 published directory as chrome app instead of make run / make serve
62 - The default port is 9999 instead of usual 9150,
63 thus point your (socks)proxy to 127.0.0.1:9999
64 - Once the GUI is ready, parameters can be generated/modified as per the user
