Nick Mathewson 967ea67b7d Use testing_rng() in tests throughout our crates. This only affects uses of thread_rng(), and affects them all more or less indiscriminately. One test does not work with ARTI_TEST_PRNG=deterministic; the next commit will fix it.		2022-06-02 14:56:42 -04:00

tor-circmgr

tor-circmgr: circuits through the Tor network on demand.

Overview

This crate is part of Arti, a project to implement Tor in Rust.

In Tor, a circuit is an encrypted multi-hop tunnel over multiple relays. This crate's purpose, long-term, is to manage a set of circuits for a client. It should construct circuits in response to a client's needs, and preemptively construct circuits so as to anticipate those needs. If a client request can be satisfied with an existing circuit, it should return that circuit instead of constructing a new one.

Limitations

But for now, this tor-circmgr code is extremely preliminary; its data structures are all pretty bad, and it's likely that the API is wrong too.
