Detailed Description

feature: domain-specific modules

The "feature" directory has modules that Tor uses only for a particular role or service, such as maintaining/using an onion service, operating as a relay or a client, or being a directory authority.

Current subdirectories are:

• feature/api – Support for making Tor embeddable
• feature/client – Functionality which only Tor clients need
• feature/control – Controller implementation
• feature/dirauth – Directory authority
• feature/dircache – Directory cache
• feature/dirclient – Directory client
• feature/dircommon – Shared code between the other directory modules
• feature/dirparse – Directory parsing code.
• feature/hibernate – Hibernating when Tor is out of bandwidth or shutting down
• feature/hs – v3 onion service implementation
• feature/hs_common – shared code between both onion service implementations
• feature/keymgt – shared code for key management between relays and onion services.
• feature/nodelist – storing and accessing the list of relays on the network.
• feature/relay – code that only relay servers and exit servers need.
• feature/rend – v2 onion service implementation
• feature/stats – statistics and history
