* Don't expose submodules of zebra_network::peer.
* PeerSet, PeerDiscover stubs.
Co-authored-by: Deirdre Connolly <deirdre@zfnd.org>
* Initial work on PeerSet.
This is adapted from the MIT-licensed tower-balance implementation.
* Use PeerSet in the connect stub.
This adds a type alias, BoxedStdError, for a boxed std::error::Error
trait object, and uses it in the where bounds for the generic service
code. In the future, we may want to standardize on using
std::error::Error exclusively, but we would then possibly lose out on
backtrace information.
* Fix authorship, license information.
I *thought* I had done a sed pass over the Cargo defaults when doing
repository initialization, but I guess I missed it or something.
Anyways, fixed now.
Add a tower-based peer implementation.
Tower provides middleware for request-response oriented protocols, while Bitcoin/Zcash just send messages which could be interpreted either as requests or responses, depending on context. To bridge this mismatch we define our own internal request/response protocol, and implement a per-peer event loop that scans incoming messages and interprets them either as requests from the remote peer to our node, or as responses to requests we made previously. This is performed by the `PeerService` task, and a corresponding `PeerClient: tower::Service` can send it requests. These tasks are themselves created by a `PeerConnector: tower::Service` which dials a remote peer and performs a handshake.
This field is called `services` in Bitcoin and Zcash, but because we use
that word internally for other purposes, calling it `PeerServices`
disambiguates the meaning to "the services advertised by the peer",
rather than, e.g., a `tower::Service`.
Prior to this commit, the tracing endpoint would attempt to bind the
given address or panic; now, if it is unable to bind the given address
it displays an error but continues running the rest of the application.
This means that we can spin up multiple Zebra instances for load
testing.
I don't feel super strongly about this change, so I'm happy to drop it,
but it makes the parsing match statements line up nicely and aligns
naming with the naming used in Bitcoin.
This removes the inventory vector structs from `zebra-chain` (as they
are really part of the network protocol) and refactors them into a
single `InventoryHash` type. This corresponds to Bitcoin's "inventory
vector" but with a different, better name (it's not a vector, it's just
a typed hash of some other item).
