There was a problem hiding this comment.
I panic here because if the *RawConfig was made once, it shouldn't fail ever again. It is a pure function in that way.

Fixes #1416 probably
This adds a
Copymethod to*config.RawConfigthat performs a parallel-safe copy. The reason this is necessary is because*config.RawConfig.Interpolatehas a slight race in the way it reads from and writes tor.configat the same time.While I couldn't come up with a test case to prove it, I'm very confident this is what caused #1416. The key there being that in his repro, one of them isn't interpolated at all. I think this is because it wrote
r.configproperly but then another interpolation overwrote it with a raw version, and interpolation didnt' see those values.I can't be 100% sure. I couldn't reproduce the bug, but looking over the code this was the only shared state that I could find anywhere.
