`Target` now only has a `Nodes` and an `AllExcept` variant, to specify
a message's target via a whitelist or blacklist. This avoids cloning
the message content and simplifies the code in several places.
* Extract test framework into hbbft_testing crate.
Also update Rust and some dependencies.
* Rename DHB tests.
They are only called `net_dynamic_hb` because we used to have two test
frameworks and two DHB test modules.
* 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.
* 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`.
Extends all APIs so that the user doesn't need to import the
`DistAlgorithm` trait.
Also, removes the error on inputting too late into `BinaryAgreement`:
whether the input still matters is an implementation detail.
The `network` test module now verifies that correct nodes are never
reported as faulty.
The `DuplicateAck` fault is removed for now, because the same ack is
usually handled multiple times in DHB.
