This implements a priority queue backed by the wallet database for scan
range ordering. The scan queue is updated on each call to `put_blocks`
or to `update_chain_tip`.
Instead of calling `put_block` for each block scanned,
`scan_cached_blocks` will now defer the block writes until the scan of a
batch is complete and will perform the block writes and note commitment
tree updates all within a single transaction.
This should ordinarily be fine in terms of memory consumption, because
the block data being saved is pruned to only that spend an output
information that is related to transactions in the wallet, which will
normally be sparse enough that the block range size that is appropriate
for a given platform to run within a batch scanner adequately bounds the
memory consumption of this pruned representation.
There are cases where we wish to return informaiton that is relevant to
a specific shielded protocol and `Transparent` is an invalid case. This
is a minor preparatory refactoring that makes this distinction
expressible.
In preparation for out-of-order range-based scanning, it is necessary
to ensure that the size of the Sapling note commitment tree is carried
along through the scan process and that stored blocks are always
persisted with the updated note commitment tree size.
Local chain validation will be performed internal to
`scan_cached_blocks`, and as handling of chain reorgs will need to
change to support out-of-order scanning, the `validate_chain` method
will be superfluous. It is removed in advance of other changes in order
to avoid updating it to reflect the forthcoming changes.
This better reflects the semantics of wallet behavior. Also, this
adds a `zcash_client_backend::WalletRead::get_min_unspent_height`
method that replaces the deprecated & removed (and misleadingly
named) `get_rewind_height` method.
This change makes it possible for wallets using the
`zcash_client_backend::data_api::wallet` module to perform transaction
preparation, including input selection and fee calculation, as an
independent step prior to creating proofs and signatures. This can be
used to improve user experience by making it possible to report the
proposed effects of the transaction to the wallet user (including
privacy implications) prior to authorizing the transaction.
This allows callers to validate smaller intervals of the given
`BlockSourceT` shortening processing times of the function call at the
expense of obtaining a partial result on a given section of interest of
the block source.
`params: &ParamsT` has been removed from the arguments since they were
only needed to fall back to `sapling_activation_height` when `None` as
passed as the `validate_from` argument. Passing `None` as validation
start point on a pre-populated `block_source` would result in an error
`ChainError::block_height_discontinuity(sapling_activation_height - 1, current_height)`
With this new API callers must specify a concrete `validate_from`
argument and assume that `validate_chain` will not take any default
fallbacks to chain `ParamsT`.
The addition of a `limit` to the chain validation function changes the
meaning of its successful output, being now a `BlockHeight, BlockHash)`
tuple indicating the block height and block hash up to which the chain
as been validated on its continuity of heights and hashes. Callers
providing a `limit` aregument are responsible of subsequent calls to
`validate_chain()` to complete validating the remaining blocks stored on
the `block_source`.

The MSRVs of the component crates are left as-is, partly because our
dependencies don't require us to bump them, and partly because those
crates have no pending changes and are relatively stable. We also plan
to split the component crates out into a separate repository, where it
will be easier to have a separate MSRV.

The change selection algorithm has the most useful information for
determining whether or not a note is dust, so this adds a new error case
to `ChangeError` that allows the change selection to report the presence
of input notes without economic value back to its caller.
This adds a set of abstractions that allow wallets to provide
independent strategies for fee estimation and note selection, and
implementations of these strategies that perform these operations in the
same fashion as the existing `spend` and `shield_transparent_funds`
functions.
This required a somewhat hefty rework of the error handling in
zcash_client_backend. It fixes an issue with the error types whereby
callees needed to have a bit too much information about the error
types produced by their callers.
Reflect the updated note selection and error handling in zcash_client_sqlite.
This adds a fee calculation strategy abstraction that can be used to
dynamically compute fees so that the total fees required may be taken
taken into account during note selection, and also removes automatic
change creation from the transaction builder.
Change outputs must now be directly created by the caller by the caller.
This is a necessary prerequisite for permitting fees to adjust based
upon the contents of the transaction being constructed.
The initial implementation of the fee strategy simply uses the current
default fee.
Previously, `shield_transparent_funds` was only shielding funds
associated with the legacy default transparent address. This meant
that transparent funds sent to unified addresses could not reliably
be shielded, as a unified address will frequently be constructed
using a diversifier index greater than zero.
This modifies the `get_transparent_receivers` method to return address
metadata containing the account ID and diversifier index used to derive
each address along with the receiver.
These traits introduce a problem, in that constraints on a method cannot
be conditionally required based upon the presence or absence of a
feature flag. Instead, we make the methods previously introduced by
the removed traits present in all cases on the `WalletRead` and
`WalletWrite` traits, but ensure that their implementations return
an error if the caller attempts to use them in a wallet that has not
been configured with support for transparent inputs functionality.
This updates the data access API to provide diversified address
functionality. In order to support this change, the addresses table
is updated to store diversifier index information in big-endian order
to allow sorting by diversifier index, and account initialization
is updated to store the diversifier index accordingly. The currently
unreleased `addresses_table` migration is updated to reflect this
change.
This fixes a bug in the logic ported from the Android SDK: it was
possible to remove a transaction in the middle of a chain, which would
cause a long-spent note to become unspent and cause the wallet balance
to be over-counted. We now restrict transaction removal to unmined
transactions, which is sufficient for the Android SDK use cases.
This is to replace the database mutations in the Android SDK. It is
placed behind an `unstable` feature flag until we are satisfied that it
is suitable as a general-purpose API (or replace it).
This modifies wallet scanning to perform per-block batched
decryption. It also alters the structure of the `ScanningKey`
trait to correctly include internal (change) keys in the scan
process.
