Implementing an epoch setter for the `DynamicHoneyBadgerBuilder` enables the creation of a `DynamicHoneyBadger` that will join the consensus at a given epoch.
* started waiting for a full epoch after node removal in net_dynamic_hb
* clarified the use of the stored join plan
* go back to rejoining the node in the same epoch it was removed
* cleanup of debug prints
* clippy lints and more cleanup
* cleaned up unused methods
* review comments; cleaned up net_dynamic_hb
* relaxed the condition on the readd input epoch
* updated the fault error in tests
* impl. old validator removal from sender queue peer list
* provided current validators for sender queue peer removal
* renamed validators as nodes in the sender queue
* Revert "renamed validators as nodes in the sender queue"
This reverts commit 78e1e1569d5f624c469bf752a5bf874b434a61d2.
* cleaned up the SQ builder and moved removal of old validators to triggers
* computing participant transitions from batches in the sender queue
* added a missing comment
* removing old validators as soon as all messages are delivered up to the last epoch
* review comments

* DHB test uses the first step of the DHB algorithm on the restarted node
* changed test batch verification to account for node 0 removal
* updated net_dynamic_hb test to cope with the removal of node 0
* relaxed verification of batches to only check inclusion of node 0 transactions
* corrected test state transitions in DHB and QHB tests
* added a builder function for a joining QHB
* rejoin the pivot node instead of node 0
* changed VirtualNet::verify_batches to take a full node as an argument
* corrected a variable name
* correction: use the pivot node ID instead of indices
* corrected the pivot node ID
* simplified a find
* simplified a conditional statement
* corrected the inference of expected output in verify_batches
* WIP on DHB and QHB tests; VirtualNet::verify_batches made more general
* readded node 0 in the DHB test when InProgress change is output
* allowed node 0 to miss a few batches while it is removed in the QHB test
* edition and rebase fixes
* refactored the use of process_step
* added VirtualNet functionality of node insertion and removal
* restarting the pivot node after all validators add it as peer
* clippy lints in net_dynamic_hb
* added observer in the QHB test; removed the DHB TestNetwork test
* fixed rng usage in the QHB test
* check output length when verifying batches; comment correction
* Use `OsRng` in place of `thread_rng`.
This changes the defaults of any builder by instantiating an `OsRng` instead of
a `thread_rng`, the former being much more secure than the latter.
Additionally, all the unit tests that still instantiate RNGs manually used `OsRng`s
as well; while there is no actual need for this level of security in tests, the performance overhead is very small and random number generation complexity has such a small impact on these tests that the convenience of being able to ban `thread_rng` from the codebase altogether, setting a good example and avoid issues when refactoring later greatly outweigh the negatives.
* Instead of storing random number generators in the various consensus algorithm instances, pass them in from the outside whenever they are needed.
This changes a large amount of interfaces (and in this commit is only partially done, since `DistAlgorithm` needs to be fundamentally altered as well.
It also obsoletes parts of the `util` module.
* Added an `R: Rng` type parameter to both methods of `DistAlgorithm`, forcing callers to pass in their own Rngs.
* Fixed documentation grammar and spelling in some of the altered interfaces due to RNG refactoring.
* Move `rng` argument to the end of the argument for most functions.
Also includes a reformatting due to Rust 1.30.
* Updated tests, accomodate `rng`-API changes.
* Fixed remaining compilation issues with new RNG code.
* Fix illegal `self` import outside curly braces.
* Cleaned up comments and fixed broken definition of `broadcast_input`.
* Updated existing test cases to properly work with static dispatch randomness.
* Do not use boxed `Rng`s for key generation in test networks.
* Use the passed-in `Rng` in `ReorderingAdversary`, instead of storing a boxed one.
* Fixed clippy lints after refactoring.
* Removed some no-longer necessary manual `fmt::Debug` implementations in test framework.
* Use `OsRng` even in tests in `binary_agreement_mitm`.
* Use a proper deterministic RNG in tests `binary_agreement_mitm`.
* Refactor `examples/simulation.rs` by not using `ThreadRng`, passing generic `Rng` parameters throughout and using a type alias instead of a newtype as the `Transaction`.
* Remove `thread_rng` use from `examples/node.rs`.
* Explicitly construct `InternalContrib` in `DynamicHoneyBadger::propose`.
* Fixed typo in description of `DistAlgorithm` trait.
* added fault checking in the net framework
* check that the node in the fault report is not faulty
* simplified a condition
* made error on fault a parameter of VirtualNet
* updated the BA test to error on fault
* explained errors and refactored an assignment
* typo fix
* test expected participants when receiving a batch from a correct node
* restrict the batch participant check to correct participants
* check only for the absence of unexpected batch participants
* check the minimum number of contributors for each batch
* corrected the minimum number of batch contributions
* removed an irrelevant FIXME
* added an equivalence check for batches output in the same epoch
* comment correction
* converted the BA test to net framework
* fixed lints and corrected docs
* seeded the Rng and removed logging
* allowed pass by value of binary_agreement argument
* handling of input via proptest and doc correction
* Allow arbitrary validator set changes in DHB.
This replaces `NodeChange` with a full list of IDs and public keys,
instead of just a single to-be-added or to-be-removed node, to allow
completely replacing the set of validators by any arbitrary new set in a
single key generation step.
* Address review comments: added_nodes, comments.
* Fix MessageScheduler::First.
Make sure every node eventually gets to handle its messages.
This includes a threshold signature in each batch that can be used as a
pseudorandom value.
Also moves `EncryptionSchedule` from `threshold_decrypt` to
`honey_badger`.
* issue286: make `ThresholdSign` and `ThresholdDecryption` APIs consistent
This gives both methods a `set_message(payload)` and a `sign()` method. If `sign` is called prior to
`set_message` or if was already called, then an empty step is returned. Otherwise share messages are
sent out to peers and `try_output` is called.
* Incorporating feedback from review of pull request #316
* Fixing the stack overflow and responding to further feedback
* Updates module documentation to reflect the API change from #286
* adds a new constructor to `ThresholdSign` and `ThresholdDecryption`
The `new_with_<payloadname>` function allows setting payload on construction
instead of as a separate call.
This merges the four maps into a single map, each entry of which tracks
the progress of both the `Broadcast` and the `BinaryAgreement`
subalgorithm for an individual proposer. Two advantages:
* A slight optimization, because the `Broadcast` instance is dropped as
soon as it is not needed anymore.
* The static guarantee that certain impossible situations (inserting a
broadcast value twice) cannot happen.
The module is also split up into smaller files.
