* add CheckpointList::new_up_to(limit: NetworkUpgrade)
* if checkpoint_sync is false, limit checkpoints to Sapling
* update tests for CheckpointList and chain::init
This is the first in a sequence of changes that change the block:: items
to not include Block as a prefix in their name, in accordance with the
Rust API guidelines.
* checkpoint: reject older of duplicate verification requests.
If we get a duplicate block verification request, we should drop the older one
in favor of the newer one, because the older request is likely to have been
canceled. Previously, this code would accept up to four duplicate verification
requests, then fail all subsequent ones.
* sync: add a timeout layer to block requests.
Note that if this timeout is too short, we'll bring down the peer set in a
retry storm.
* sync: restart syncing on error
Restart the syncing process when an error occurs, rather than ignoring it.
Restarting means we discard all tips and start over with a new block locator,
so we can have another chance to "unstuck" ourselves.
* sync: additional debug info
* sync: handle lookahead limit correctly.
Instead of extracting all the completed task results, the previous code pulled
results out until there were fewer tasks than the lookahead limit, then
stopped. This meant that completed tasks could be left until the limit was
exceeded again. Instead, extract all completed results, and use the number of
pending tasks to decide whether to extend the tip or wait for blocks to finish.
* network: add debug instrumentation to retry policy
* sync: instrument the spawned task
* sync: streamline ObtainTips/ExtendTips logic & tracing
This change does three things:
1. It aligns the implementation of ObtainTips and ExtendTips so that they use
the same deduplication method. This means that when debugging we only have one
deduplication algorithm to focus on.
2. It streamlines the tracing output to not include information already
included in spans. Both obtain_tips and extend_tips have their own spans
attached to the events, so it's not necessary to add Scope: prefixes in
messages.
3. It changes the messages to be focused on reporting the actual
events rather than the interpretation of the events (e.g., "got genesis hash in
response" rather than "peer could not extend tip"). The motivation for this
change is that when debugging, the interpretation of events is already known to
be incorrect, in the sense that the mental model of the code (no bug) does not
match its behavior (has bug), so presenting minimally-interpreted events forces
interpretation relative to the actual code.
* sync: hack to work around zcashd behavior
* sync: localize debug statement in extend_tips
* sync: change algorithm to define tips as pairs of hashes.
This is different enough from the existing description that its comments no
longer apply, so I removed them. A further chunk of work is to change the sync
RFC to document this algorithm.
* sync: reduce block timeout
* state: add resource limits for sled
Closes#888
* sync: add a restart timeout constant
* sync: de-pub constants
* change several tests to transcript in consensus chain tests
* rename transcripts
* rename state transcript
* fix spandocs
* add timeout layer to tests
* run transcripts on the wrapped timeout service, remove ready calls
Log a message with the height when we get duplicate blocks.
Downgrade some verifier errors and warnings to info and debug, because
some peers on mainnet consistently provide bad blocks.
Reduce the amount of time that the block verifier waits for the previous
block, before polling again.
(Waiting for 2 seconds resulted in some apparent block verifier hangs.)
This is a temporary fix, until the state layer handles context checks.
We can use this network upgrade to implement different consensus rules
and chain context handling for genesis blocks.
Part of the chain state design in #682.
* make zebra-checkpoints
* fix LOOKAHEAD_LIMIT scope
* add a default cli path
* change doc usage text
* add tracing
* move MAX_CHECKPOINT_HEIGHT_GAP to zebra-consensus
* do byte_reverse_hex in a map
We had a brief discussion on discord and it seemed like we had consensus on the
following versioning policy:
* zebrad: match major version to NU version, so we will start by releasing
zebrad 3.0.0;
* zebra-* libraries: start by matching zebrad's version, then increment major
versions of each library as we need to make breaking changes (potentially
faster than the zebrad version, always respecting semver but making no
guarantees about the longevity of major releases).
This commit sets all of the crate versions to 3.0.0-alpha.0 -- the -alpha.0
marks it as a prerelease not subject to perfect adherence to compatibility
guarantees.
