* Cluster Replicated Data Store
Separate the data storage and merge strategy from the network IO boundary.
Implement an eager push overlay for transporting recent messages.
Simulation shows fast convergence with 20k nodes.
* fix poll_gossip_for_leader() loop to actually wait
for 30 seconds
* reduce reuseaddr use to only when necessary,
try to avoid already bound sockets
* move nat.rs to netutil.rs
* add gossip tracing to thin_client and bench-tps
* remove trailing whitespace in ci/audit.sh
* code review fixups
* rename GOSSIP_PORT_RANGE => SOLANA_PORT_RANGE
* remove out-of-date TODO in localnet-sanity.sh
* remove features=test and code that was using it (localhost prohibitions in
crdt) added TODO in crdt.rs, maybe we should boot localhost in production
networks?
* boot tvu_window from NodeInfo: instead, send repair requests from the repair
socket (to gossip on peer) and answer repair requests via the sockaddr
from the repair request
* remove various unused pub functions
* banish SocketAddr parse().unwrap() to a macro that can also accept simpler stuff
* move gossip/NCP off assuming anything about its address
* use a single socket to send and receive gossip
* remove --addr/-a from CLIs
* rearrange networking utility code
* use Arc<UdpSocket> to share the Sync-safe UdpSocket among threads
* rename TestNode to Node
TODO:
* re-enable 127.0.0.1 as a valid address in crdt
* change repair request/response to a similar, single socket
* pick cloned sockets or Arc<UdpSocket> for all these (rpu uses tryclone())
* update contact_info with network truthiness instead of what the node
says?
* fixup!
* fixups!
* send the vote and count it
* actually vote
* test
* Spelling fixes
* Process the voting transaction in the leader's bank
* Send tokens to the leader
* Give leader tokens in more cases
* Test for write_stage::leader_vote
* Request airdrop inside fullnode and not the script
* Change readme to indicate that drone should be up before leader
And start drone before leader in snap scripts
* Rename _kp => _keypair for keypairs and other review fixups
* Remove empty else
* tweak test_leader_vote numbers to be closer to testing 2/3 boundary
* combine creating blob and transaction for leader/validator
