This udpates the mining module to use the lastest module major versions.
The updated direct dependencies are as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake/v2@v2.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/v2@v2.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil/v2@v2.0.0
This updates the mining module dependencies and serves as a base for
mining/v1.1.1.
The updated direct dependencies in this commit are as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain@v1.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.2.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg/chainhash@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil@v1.4.0
The full list of updated direct dependencies since the previous
mining/v1.1.0 release are as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain@v1.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.2.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg/chainhash@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil@v1.4.0
This updates the main module to use the latest available minor and patch
versions of all modules and reverts the recent change that incorrectly
removed all of the blake256 references from the various go.sum files.
The following required direct dependencies are bumped as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.2.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake/v2@v2.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/certgen@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg@v1.5.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg/chainhash@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg/v2@v2.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil/v2@v2.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/gcs@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/hdkeychain/v2@v2.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/txscript/v2@v2.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrwallet/rpc/jsonrpc/types@v1.2.0
This updates the code to make use of the new crypto/blake256 module instead of
github.com/dchest/blake256.
* change the references in the chaincfg/chainhash and gcs modules
* update chaincfg/chainhash to use the new Sum256 API
* remove references to dchest/blake256 from all go.sum files
This updates all of the modules that still rely on v1 of the chaincfg
module to use v1.5.1 which builds correctly with the major API bump
introduced in the edwards v1.0.0 module.
While here, it also updates all references to the v0 edwards and dcrec
modules to their tagged v1 counterparts, tidies all of the modules via
go mod tidy, and removes all unnecessary indirect entries from the mod
files to keep the modules using the versions the dependencies are tested
with.
The primary motivation for this change is that the chaincfg/v2 module
requires edwards/v1 which is not API compatible with edwards/v0.
Consequently, in order for each module to be incrementally updated to
use chaincfg/v2, all of its dependencies must also be able to build with
edwards/v1 which is the case as of chaincfg v1.5.1.
This adds the go 1.11 directive to all of the modules in order to
clearly mark they build and work with that version. Go 1.12 modified
the tools such that tidy will automatically add the new version to
modules that do not already have a directive and that would prevent
builds on Go 1.11 through Go 1.11.3 which is not desirable.
This modifies all of the modules, with the exception of the root module,
to remove all replacement directives from their go.mod files and update
the requirements and module sums accordingly.
While it is nice to be able to build and test directly from each module
directory and have it pull in the latest untagged changes when
developing, having all of the overrides in each module makes it
infeasible to use the module tools to help maintain the modules and thus
makes it quite difficult to ensure they are all independently accurate
for external consumers.
By maintaining all of the overrides in the root module and invoking all
builds and tests from it, the overrides will apply to ensure the latest
code is being built and tested.
This also modifies the tests script used with in CI to run all of the
tests from the root module accordingly.
This bumps the various module versions as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrec/secp256k1@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrjson@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/database@v1.0.3
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mining@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/certgen@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/connmgr@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mempool@v1.1.0
In addition, it serves as a base for tagging releases of the following
module versions that have previous been bumped since the last release,
but not yet tagged:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/wire@v1.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg@v1.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil@v1.2.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/txscript@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/hdkeychain@v1.1.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/peer@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient@v1.1.0
Finally, it updates all of the dependencies for every module accordingly,
adds a few missing overrides for transitive dependencies, and tidies up
some of the go module sum files.
This modifies the way the unspent transaction output set is handled to
reverse its current semantics so that it is optimized for the typical
case, provides simpler handling, and resolves various issues with the
previous approach. In addition, it updates the transaction, address,
and existsaddress indexes to no longer remove entries from blocks that
have been disapproved as, in all cases, the data still exists in the
blockchain and thus should be queryable via the indexes even though
there is special handling applied which treats them as if they did not
exist in certain regards.
Prior to this change, transactions in the regular tree were not applied
to the utxo set until the next block was processed and did not vote
against them. However, that approach has several undesirable
consequences such as temporarily "invisible" utxos that are actually
spendable, disapproved transactions missing from indexes even though
they are still in the blockchain, and poor performance characteristics.
In a certain sense, the previous approach could be viewed as the
transactions not being valid until they were approved, however, that is
not really true because it was (and still is) perfectly acceptable to
spend utxos created by transactions in the regular tree of the same
block so long as they come before the transactions that spend them.
Further, utxos from a transaction in the regular tree of a block can be
spent in the next block so long as that block does not disapprove them,
which further illustrates that the utxos are actually valid unless they
are disapproved.
Consequently, this modifies that behavior to instead make the utxo set
always track the most recent block and remove the regular transactions
in the parent when a block votes against them. This approach is
significantly more efficient for the normal case where the previous
block is not disapproved by its successor.
Also, the terminology is changed in several places to refer to
disapproved blocks and transaction trees as opposed to invalid, because
invalid implies the tree/block is malformed or does not follow the
consensus rules. On the contrary, when a block votes against its
parent, it is only voting against regular transaction tree of the
parent. Both the block and transaction tree are still valid in that
case, only the regular transaction tree is treated as if it never
existed in terms of effects on the utxo set and duplicate transaction
semantics.
High level overview of changes:
- Modify the utxo viewpoint to reverse semantics as previously described
- Remove all code related to stake viewpoints
- Change all block connection code in the viewpoint to first undo all
transactions in the regular tree of the parent block if the current
one disapproves it then connect all of the stake txns followed by
the regular transactions in the block
- NOTE: The order here is important since stake transactions are not
allowed to spend outputs from the regular transactions in the same
block as the next block might disapprove them
- Change all block disconnection code in the viewpoint to first undo
all the transactions in the regular and stake trees of the block
being disconnected, and then resurrect the regular transactions in
the parent block if the block being disconnected disapproved of it
- Introduce a new type named viewFilteredSet for handling sets
filtered by transactions that already exist in a view
- Introduce a function on the viewpoint for specifically fetching the
inputs to the regular transactions
- Update mempool block connection and disconnection code to match the
new semantics
- Update all tests to handle the new semantics
- Modify the best state number of transactions to include all
transactions in all blocks regardless of disapproval because they
still had to be processed and still exist in the blockchain
- Remove include recent block parameter from mempool.FetchTransaction
since the utxoset now always includes the latest block
- This also has the side effect of correcting some unexpected results
such as coinbases in the most recent block being incorrectly
reported as having zero confirmations
- Modify mempool utxo fetch logic to use a cached disapproved view, when
needed, rather than recreating the view for every new transaction
added to it
- Update spend journal to include all transactions in the block instead
of only stake transactions from the current block and regular
transactions from the parent block
- Modify tx and address indexes to store the block index of each tx
along with its location within the files and update the query
functions to return the information as well
- Change the tx, address, and existsaddress indexes to index all
transactions regardless of their disapproval
- This also corrects several issues such as the inability to query and
retrieve transactions that exist in a disapproved block
- Update all RPC commands that return verbose transaction information
to set that newly available block index information properly
- Rename IsRegTxTreeKnownDisapproved in the mining.TxSource interface to
IsRegTxTreeKnownDisapproved
- NOTE: This will require a major bump to the mining module before
the next release
- Rename several utxoView instances to view for consistency
- Rename several variables that dealt with disapproved trees from
names that contained Invalid to ones that contain Disapproved
NOTE: This does not yet have database migration code and thus will
require a full chain download. It will exit with error in the case you
attempt to run it against an existing v4 database. The new database it
creates will be v5, so attempting to run an older version will reject
the new database to prevent corruption.
The database migration will be added in a separate commit.
This modifies the ChainTips function in blockchain to return the results
using a type defined in the blockchain package itself instead of
directly returning a dcrjson type. This is preferable since nothing
else in the module depends on dcrjson and therefore allows the
dependency on the dcrjson module to be broken.
It also updates the RPC server that makes use of the function to perform
the necessary conversions.
Finally, the associated module hierarchy documentation is updated to
properly remove the no longer required dependency.
It should be noted that this is a breaking change to the API and thus
will need a v2 major version bump of the blockchain module to be
published before the changes can be externally consumed.
This bumps the various module versions as follows:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/addrmgr@v1.0.2
- github.com/decred/dcrd/wire@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg@v1.1.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/connmgr@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil@v1.1.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/database@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/hdkeychain@v1.1.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/txscript@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/gcs@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mining@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mempool@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/peer@v1.0.1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient@v1.0.1
It also updates all of the dependencies for every module accordingly and
adds a few missing overrides for transitive dependencies.
This further refines the modules to add the following new modules
instead of depending on the entire dcrd module:
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrjson@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/gcs@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mining@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mempool@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/peer@v1.0.0
- github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient@v1.0.0
Also, it ensures modules that rely on other modules within the repo are
provided replacements to the latest repo code to ensure builds against
master and continuous integration use the latest code.
- github.com/decred/dcrd/addrmgr
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain
- github.com/decred/dcrd/blockchain/stake
- github.com/decred/dcrd/chaincfg
- github.com/decred/dcrd/connmgr
- github.com/decred/dcrd/database
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrec/secp256k1
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrjson
- github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil
- github.com/decred/dcrd/gcs
- github.com/decred/dcrd/hdkeychain
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mempool
- github.com/decred/dcrd/mining
- github.com/decred/dcrd/peer
- github.com/decred/dcrd/rpcclient
- github.com/decred/dcrd/txscript
- github.com/decred/dcrd/wire
This removes a bunch of build modules that rely on a version of dcrd
that doesn't exist and updates the root module so dcrd can be built with
the upcoming go1.11 release.
This adds module support for the versioned go toolchain. In particular,
the following packages are defined as modules:
* addrmgr
* blockchain
* certgen
* chaincfg
* connmgr
* database
* dcrjson
* dcrutil
* gcs
* hdkeychain
* mempool
* mining
* peer
* rpcclient
* txscript
* wire
It does not update the travis build environment or README since it is
experimental at this point.
This finishes separating the mining code from the mempool that was
partially done in commit 9031d85 by extending the TxSource interface to
include the new functionality required by Decred.
The following is an overview of the changes to accomplish this:
- Move the VoteTx struct out of the mempool package in the mining
package and rename it to VoteDesc instead to signify it is a vote
descriptor and be consistent with the naming of TxDesc
- Update mempool to use the new mining.VoteDesc struct
- Rename CheckIfTxsExist to HaveAllTransactions to be more consistent
with HaveTransaction in the TxSource interface as it now lives
alongside it
- Add VoteHashesForBlock, VotesForBlocks, and IsTxTreeKnownInvalid
to the TxSource interface
- Switch the mining code to call the functions on the TxSource interface
instead and remove the reference to the concrete mempool
This moves the priority-related code from the mempool package to the
mining package and also exports a new constant named UnminedHeight which
takes the place of the old unexported mempoolHeight.
Even though the mempool makes use of the priority code to make decisions
about what it will accept, priority really has to do with mining since
it influences which transactions will end up into a block. This change
also has the side effect of being a step towards enabling separation of
the mining code into its own package which, as previously mentioned,
needs access to the priority calculation code as well.
Finally, the mempoolHeight variable was poorly named since what it
really represents is a transaction that has not been mined into a block
yet. Renaming the variable to more accurately reflect its purpose makes
it clear that it belongs in the mining package which also needs the
definition now as well since the priority calculation code relies on it.
This will also benefit an outstanding PR which needs access to the same
value.
This merge commit adds the following code from the
github.com/decred/dcrutil package into a new
github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil package:
* Address handling
* Amount type
* AppDataDir func
* bitflags functions
* Block wrapper type
* Hash160 func
* Tx wrapper type
* WIF type
as well as all tests for this code.
The old github.com/decred/dcrutil/hdkeychain package has also been
merged and moved to github.com/decred/dcrd/dcrutil/hdkeychain.
dcrd packages have been updated to use the new packages and the dep
files have been updated for this change.
Contains the following commits:
- 711f33450c
- b6b1e55d1e
- Reverted because Travis is already at a more recent version
- bd4e64d1d4
Also, the merge commit contains the necessary decred-specific
alterations, converts all other references to sha to hash to keep with
the spirit of the merged commits, and various other cleanup intended to
bring the code bases more in line with one another.
This is mostly a backport of some of the same modifications made in
Decred along with a few additional things cleaned up. In particular,
this updates the code to make use of the new chainhash package.
Also, since this required API changes anyways and the hash algorithm is
no longer tied specifically to SHA, all other functions throughout the
code base which had "Sha" in their name have been changed to Hash so
they are not incorrectly implying the hash algorithm.
The following is an overview of the changes:
- Remove the wire.ShaHash type
- Update all references to wire.ShaHash to the new chainhash.Hash type
- Rename the following functions and update all references:
- wire.BlockHeader.BlockSha -> BlockHash
- wire.MsgBlock.BlockSha -> BlockHash
- wire.MsgBlock.TxShas -> TxHashes
- wire.MsgTx.TxSha -> TxHash
- blockchain.ShaHashToBig -> HashToBig
- peer.ShaFunc -> peer.HashFunc
- Rename all variables that included sha in their name to include hash
instead
- Update for function name changes in other dependent packages such as
btcutil
- Update copyright dates on all modified files
- Update glide.lock file to use the required version of btcutil
This creates a skeleton mining package that simply contains a few of the
definitions used by the mining and mempool code.
This is a step towards decoupling the mining code from the internals of
btcd and ultimately will house all of the code related to creating block
templates and CPU mining.
The main reason a skeleton package is being created before the full
blown package is ready is to avoid blocking mempool separation which
relies on these type definitions.
