sometimes we call circuit has_opened() more than 2 times on client side
We have a branch bug15618_030-testing
at https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/dgoulet/tor.git that logs a warning when we call more than 2 times circuit has_opened()
on a circuit. The patch was made to confirm the theory on legacy/trac#15618 (moved) related to a warning we see on relays. While until now I never saw the warning on relay side, I see it quite often on client side.
Based on the log messages, I think this is related to introduction point circuits and not rendezvous circuits as we thought. Basically it happens when we open a 4 hop circuit with last hop X, and immediately we extend that circuit to a 5 hop one with last hop Y, where Y is (I think) the introduction point. I got the warning 2 times in a row and the similarity between them is that they are 5 hop circuits with the last two hops 4 and 5 the same, but different hops 2 and 3.
