* - qos_service metrics tagged with leader thread ids to separate gossip/tpu votes and transactions;
- qos_service metrics is reported with bank slot;
- replaced timer-based reporting with signal via channel; removed async report test as qos_service now lives within a thread
* - add tpu live packets (eg, not buffered packets) states to qos metrics reporting
The indices for erasure coding shreds are tied to data shreds:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/90f41fd9b/ledger/src/shred.rs#L921
However with the upcoming changes to erasure schema, there will be more
erasure coding shreds than data shreds and we can no longer infer coding
shreds indices from data shreds.
The commit adds constructs to track coding shreds indices explicitly.
next-shred-index is already readily available from returned data shreds.
The commit simplifies the api for upcoming changes to erasure coding
schema which will require explicit tracking of indices for coding shreds
as well as data shreds.
- decouple cost_model from cost_tracker; allowing one cost_model
instance being shared within a validator;
- update cost_model api to calculate_cost(&self...)->transaction_cost

* windows: Make solana-test-validator work
The important changes to get this going on Windows:
* ledger lock needs to be done on a file instead of the directory
* IPC service needs to use the Windows pipe naming scheme
* always disable the JIT
* file logging not possible yet because we can't redirect stderr,
but this will change once env_logger fixes the pipe output target!
* Integrate review feedback
* Move transaction sanitization earlier in the pipeline
* Renamed HashedTransaction to SanitizedTransaction
* Implement deref for sanitized transaction
* bring back process_transactions test method
* Use sanitized transactions for cost model calculation
Broadcast stage and retransmit stage should arrange nodes on turbine
broadcast tree in exactly same order. Additionally any changes to this
ordering (e.g. updating how unstaked nodes are handled) requires feature
gating to keep the cluster in sync.
Current implementation is scattered out over several public methods and
exposes too much of implementation details (e.g. usize indices into
peers vector) which makes code changes and checking for feature
activations more difficult.
This commit encapsulates turbine peer computations into a new struct,
and only exposes two public methods, get_broadcast_peer and
get_retransmit_peers, for call-sites.
* Add stats and counter around cost model ops, mainly:
- calculate transaction cost
- check transaction can fit in a block
- update block cost tracker after transactions are added to block
- replay_stage to update/insert execution cost to table
* Change mutex on cost_tracker to RwLock
* removed cloning cost_tracker for local use, as the metrics show clone is very expensive.
* acquire and hold locks for block of TXs, instead of acquire and release per transaction;
* remove redundant would_fit check from cost_tracker update execution path
* refactor cost checking with less frequent lock acquiring
* avoid many Transaction_cost heap allocation when calculate cost, which
is in the hot path - executed per transaction.
* create hashmap with new_capacity to reduce runtime heap realloc.
* code review changes: categorize stats, replace explicit drop calls, concisely initiate to default
* address potential deadlock by acquiring locks one at time
* replay stage feeds back realtime per-program execution cost to cost model;
* program cost execution table is initialized into empty table, no longer populated with hardcoded numbers;
* changed cost unit to microsecond, using value collected from mainnet;
* add ExecuteCostTable with fixed capacity for security concern, when its limit is reached, programs with old age AND less occurrence will be pushed out to make room for new programs.
* Create solana-poh crate
* Move BigTableUploadService to solana-ledger
* Add solana-rpc to workspace
* Move dependencies to solana-rpc
* Move remaining rpc modules to solana-rpc
* Single use statement solana-poh
* Single use statement solana-rpc
* * Add following to banking_stage:
1. CostModel as immutable ref shared between threads, to provide estimated cost for transactions.
2. CostTracker which is shared between threads, tracks transaction costs for each block.
* replace hard coded program ID with id() calls
* Add Account Access Cost as part of TransactionCost. Account Access cost are weighted differently between read and write, signed and non-signed.
* Establish instruction_execution_cost_table, add function to update or insert instruction cost, unit tested. It is read-only for now; it allows Replay to insert realtime instruction execution costs to the table.
* add test for cost_tracker atomically try_add operation, serves as safety guard for future changes
* check cost against local copy of cost_tracker, return transactions that would exceed limit as unprocessed transaction to be buffered; only apply bank processed transactions cost to tracker;
* bencher to new banking_stage with max cost limit to allow cost model being hit consistently during bench iterations
* Move gossip modules to solana-gossip
* Update Protocol abi digest due to move
* Move gossip benches and hook up CI
* Remove unneeded Result entries
* Single use statements
For all code paths (gossip push, pull, purge, etc) that remove or
override a crds value, it is necessary to record hash of values purged
from crds table, in order to exclude them from subsequent pull-requests;
otherwise the next pull request will likely return outdated values,
wasting bandwidth:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ed51cde37/core/src/crds_gossip_pull.rs#L486-L491
Currently this is done all over the place in multiple modules, and this
has caused bugs in the past where purged values were not recorded.
This commit encapsulated this bookkeeping into crds module, so that any
code path which removes or overrides a crds value, also records the hash
of purged value in-place.
It is crucial that VersionedCrdsValue::insert_timestamp does not go
backward in time:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ec37a843a/core/src/crds.rs#L67-L79
Otherwise methods such as get_votes and get_epoch_slots_since will
break, which will break their downstream flow, including vote-listener
and optimistic confirmation:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ec37a843a/core/src/cluster_info.rs#L1197-L1215https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ec37a843a/core/src/cluster_info.rs#L1274-L1298
For that, Crds::new_versioned is intended to be called "atomically" with
Crds::insert_verioned (as the comment already says so):
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ec37a843a/core/src/crds.rs#L126-L129
However, currently this is violated in the code. For example,
filter_pull_responses creates VersionedCrdsValues (with the current
timestamp), then acquires an exclusive lock on gossip, then
process_pull_responses writes those values to the crds table:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/ec37a843a/core/src/cluster_info.rs#L2375-L2392
Depending on the workload and lock contention, the insert_timestamps may
well be in the past when these values finally are inserted into gossip.
To avoid such scenarios, this commit:
* removes Crds::new_versioned and Crd::insert_versioned.
* makes VersionedCrdsValue constructor private, only invoked in
Crds::insert, so that insert_timestamp is populated right before
insert.
This will improve insert_timestamp monotonicity as long as Crds::insert
is not called with a stalled timestamp. Following commits may further
improve this by calling timestamp() inside Crds::insert, and/or
switching to std::time::Instant which guarantees monotonicity.
Number of parity coding shreds is always less than the number of data
shreds in FEC blocks:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/6907a2366/ledger/src/shred.rs#L719
Data shreds are batched in chunks of 32 shreds each:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/6907a2366/ledger/src/shred.rs#L714
However the very last batch of data shreds in a slot can be small, in
which case the loss rate can be exacerbated.
This commit expands the number of coding shreds in the last FEC block in
slots to: 64 - number of data shreds; so that FEC blocks are always 64
data and parity coding shreds each.
As a consequence of this, the last FEC block has more parity coding
shreds than data shreds. So for some shred indices we will have a coding
shred but no data shreds. This should not cause any kind of overlapping
FEC blocks as in:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/pull/10095
since this is done only for the very last batch in a slot, and the next
slot will reset the shred index.
