* status: needs_revision => needs_review Comment: Ok I switched to checking the purpose instead of the flag, and removed the flag. While thinking about #28634, I started to realize we may need more here. We may want to flip this back to C_GENERAL isntead of closing it. Or at least think about how we would make this circuit behave more like it was real. Not sure about hidden service circuits, but general circuits are marked dirty and allowed to sit around for 10 minutes after use before being closed. I am not sure the best way to do this, though. Maybe we do need some kind of timer that does not send a packet but just causes a state transition.. Bleh. I'm also getting more and more pessimistic about doing this or #28634 by Tuesday.. I think it is more important that what we deploy is sane and good rather than just does something. I think if we act early enough in 0.4.1 to make more reasonable machines, we'll have plenty of testing. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28780#comment:8> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
