There was a previous assumption that blockindex would be quite small. With addressindex
and spentindex enabled the blockindex is much larger and the amount of cache allocated for
it should also increase. Furthermore, enabling compression should decrease the amount of
disk space required and less data to write/read. The default leveldb max_open_files is set to
1000, for the blockindex the default is set to 1000 with compression. The 64 value that is
current is kept for the utxo database and does not enable compression. Two additional options
are added here to be able to configure the values for leveldb and the block index:
- `-dbmaxopenfiles` A number of files for leveldb to keep open
- `-dbcompression` Boolean 0 or 1 to enable snappy leveldb compression
There was a bug where the spending address index could have the same key
as the receiving address index if the input and output indexes matched. This lead
to the output always overwriting the input index leading to incorrect balances
with missing spent amounts. This patch separates the two so that they have unique
keys so balances will be correctly calculated.
After discussion in #7164 I think this is better.
Max tip age was introduced in #5987 to make it possible to run
testnet-in-a-box. But associating this behavior with the testnet chain
is wrong conceptually, as it is not needed in normal usage.
Should aim to make testnet test the software as-is.
Replace it with a (debug) option `-maxtipage`, which can be
specified only in the specific case.
Remove the nType and nVersion as parameters to all serialization methods
and functions. There is only one place where it's read and has an impact
(in CAddress), and even there it does not impact any of the recursively
invoked serializers.
Instead, the few places that need nType or nVersion are changed to read
it directly from the stream object, through GetType() and GetVersion()
methods which are added to all stream classes.
We do not need to be able to calculate multiple SignatureHash versions for a
single transaction format; instead, we use the transaction format to determine
the SigVersion.
The consensus branch ID *does* need to be passed in from the outside, as only
the caller knows the context in which the SignatureHash is being calculated
(ie. mempool acceptance vs. block validation).
JoinSplit signature verification has been moved into ContextualCheckTransaction,
where the consensus branch ID can be obtained.
The argument to the sign command for zcash-tx has been modified to take a height
in addition to the optional sigtype flags.
Mempool improvements, branch ID awareness
Whenever the local chain tip is updated, transactions in the mempool which commit to an
unmineable branch ID (for example, just before a network upgrade activates, where the
next block will have a different branch ID) will be removed.
Includes commits cherry-picked from the following upstream PRs:
- bitcoin/bitcoin#6654
- Only the mempool index change.
- bitcoin/bitcoin#6776
- bitcoin/bitcoin#7020
- bitcoin/bitcoin#6915
Part of #2074.
Sets default min relay tx fee to 100, which is used to initialize
nSatoshisPerK for min fee calculation. The default z_sendmany
fee of 10000 is now sufficient to cover a tx of size 100000 bytes,
so txs will not be treated as "free" and hit the free rate limiter.
Enable high-priority alerts to put the RPC into safe mode
This reverts the changes in 986b5e257e and adds a priority check.
