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.
Calling ClusterInfo::id repeatedly in for loops or iterators is
inefficient, because it acquires a lock on ClusterInfo.my_contact_info,
and clones the entire contact-info.
filter_by_shred_version does not check the shred-version of the owner of
the crds-value. It only checks the shred-version of the node which is
relaying the value:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/5cc073420/gossip/src/cluster_info.rs#L2274-L2289
So crds-values with different shred versions can still pass through this
function as long as they are relayed by a node with matching shred
version; and so, a single node can bridge different shred values
through-out the cluster.
Crds values of nodes with different shred versions are creeping into
gossip table resulting in runtime issues as the one addressed in:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/pull/17899
This commit works towards enforcing more checks and filtering based on
shred version by adding necessary mapping and api to gossip table.
Once populated, pubkey->shred-version mapping persists as long as there
are any values associated with the pubkey.
epoch-slots may be overwritten before they are written to crds table:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/issues/17711
This commit writes new epoch-slots to crds table synchronously with
push_epoch_slots. The functions is still not thread-safe as commented in
the code, however currently only one threads is invoking this code.
