* Keypair: implement clone()
This was not implemented upstream in ed25519-dalek to force everyone to
think twice before creating another copy of a potentially sensitive
private key in memory.
See https://github.com/dalek-cryptography/ed25519-dalek/issues/76
However, there are now 9 instances of
Keypair::from_bytes(&keypair.to_bytes())
in the solana codebase and it would be preferable to have a function.
In particular since this also comes up when writing programs and can
cause users to either start messing with lifetimes or discover the
from_bytes() workaround themselves.
This patch opts to not implement the Clone trait. This avoids automatic
use in order to preserve some of the original "let developers think
twice about this" intention.
* Use Keypair::clone
* Remove UseQuic type
Move to storing the UdpSocket on ConnectionCache and accepting a bool
* Remove use_quic from ConnectionCache constructor
Replace with separate with_udp constructor to force callers to choose
Shred slot and parent are not verified until window-service where
resources are already wasted to sig-verify and deserialize shreds.
This commit moves above verification to earlier in the pipeline in fetch
stage.
* Make sure to root local slots even with hard fork
* Address review comments
* Cleanup a bit
* Further clean up
* Further clean up a bit
* Add comment
* Tweak hard fork reconciliation code placement
* Connection pool in connection cache and handle connection errors
1. The connection not has a pool of connections per address, configurable, default 4
2. The connections per address share a lazy initialized endpoint
3. Handle connection issues better, avoid race conditions
4. Various log improvement for help debug connection issues
* client: Remove static connection cache, plumb it instead
* Add TpuClient::new_with_connection_cache to not break downstream
* Refactor get_connection and RwLock into ConnectionCache
* Fix merge conflicts from new async TpuClient
* Remove `ConnectionCache::set_use_quic`
* Move DEFAULT_TPU_USE_QUIC to client, use ConnectionCache::default()
Add in some CPU utilization metrics such as: number of vCPUs, clock frequency, average load across different time intervals, and number of total threads
#### Problem
blockstore_db.rs has a mutual dependency between blockstore_metrics.rs.
#### Summary of Changes
This PR removes the mutual dependency by moving the option-related stuff
out from blockstore_db.rs to its new home --- blockstore_options.rs.
By doing this, we address the mutual dependency and also make the code cleaner.
Refactor the thin_client::create_client to take addresses separately instead of as a tuple

This PR renames BlockstoreAdvancedOptions to LedgerColumnOptions, as we will
pass-down this struct to LedgerColumn to allow it to perform metric reporting.
#### Summary of Changes
This PR further enables group by operation on storage type in blockstore_rocksdb_cfs metrics.
Such group-by allows us to further compare the performance metrics between rocks-level and
rocks-fifo.
To make things extensible, this PR introduces BlockstoreAdvancedOptions and move shred_storage_type.
All fields in BlockstoreAdvancedOptions will support group-by operation in blockstore_rocksdb_cfs.
Dependency: #23580
* Add quic-client module to send transactions via quic, abstracted behind the TpuConnection trait (along with a legacy UDP implementation of TpuConnection) and change thin-client to use TpuConnection
#### Summary of Changes
This PR adds two hidden arguments to the validator that allow users to use RocksDB's FIFO compaction for storing shreds.
--shred-storage <SHRED_STORAGE>
EXPERIMENTAL: Controls how RocksDB compacts shreds. *WARNING*: You will lose your ledger data
when you switch between options. Possible values are: 'level': stores shreds using RocksDB's default (level)
compaction. 'fifo': stores shreds under RocksDB's FIFO compaction. This option is more efficient on
disk-write-bytes of the ledger store. [default: level] [possible values: level, fifo]
--shred-storage-size <SHRED_STORAGE_SIZE_BYTES>
The shred storage size in bytes. The suggested value is 50% of your ledger storage size in bytes. [default:
268435456000]
* Add feature gate for new vote instruction and plumb through replay
Add tower versions
* Add check for slot hashes history
* Update is_recent check to exclude voting on hard fork root slot
* Move tower rollback test to flaky and ignore it until #22551 lands
Support using connection pooling and use multiple threads to do Postgres db operations. The performance is improved from 1500 RPS to 40,000 RPS measured during validator start.
Support multiple plugins at the same time.
Summary of Changes
Create a plugin mechanism in the accounts update path so that accounts data can be streamed out to external data stores (be it Kafka or Postgres). The plugin mechanism allows
Data stores of connection strings/credentials to be configured,
Accounts with patterns to be streamed
PostgreSQL implementation of the streaming for different destination stores to be plugged in.
The code comprises 4 major parts:
accountsdb-plugin-intf: defines the plugin interface which concrete plugin should implement.
accountsdb-plugin-manager: manages the load/unload of plugins and provide interfaces which the validator can notify of accounts update to plugins.
accountsdb-plugin-postgres: the concrete plugin implementation for PostgreSQL
The validator integrations: updated streamed right after snapshot restore and after account update from transaction processing or other real updates.
The plugin is optionally loaded on demand by new validator CLI argument -- there is no impact if the plugin is not loaded.
This is the 2nd installment for the AccountsDb replication.
Summary of Changes
The basic google protocol buffer protocol for replicating updated slots and accounts. tonic/tokio is used for transporting the messages.
The basic framework of the client and server for replicating slots and accounts -- the persisting of accounts in the replica-side will be done at the next PR -- right now -- the accounts are streamed to the replica-node and dumped. Replication for information about Bank is also not done in this PR -- to be addressed in the next PR to limit the change size.
Functionality used by both the client and server side are encapsulated in the replica-lib crate.
There is no impact to the existing validator by default.
Tests:
Observe the confirmed slots replicated to the replica-node.
Observe the accounts for the confirmed slot are received at the replica-node side.
#### Problem
Snapshot names are overloaded, and there are multiple terms that mean the same thing. This is confusing. Here's a list of ones in the codebase that I've found:
```
- snapshot_dir
- snapshots_dir
- snapshot_path
- snapshot_output_dir
- snapshot_package_output_path
- snapshot_archives_dir
```
#### Summary of Changes
For all the ones that are about the directory where snapshot archives are stored, ensure they are `snapshot_archives_dir`. For the ones about the (bank) snapshots directory, set to `bank_snapshots_dir`.

While reviewing PR #18565, as issue was brought up to refactor some code
around verifying the bank after rebuilding from snapshots. A new
top-level function has been added to get the latest snapshot archives
and load the bank then verify. Additionally, new tests have been
written and existing tests have been updated to use this new function.
Fixes#18973
While resolving the issue, it became clear there was some additional
low-hanging fruit this change enabled. Specifically, the functions
`bank_to_xxx_snapshot_archive()` now return their respective
`SnapshotArchiveInfo`. And on the flip side,
`bank_from_snapshot_archives()` now takes `SnapshotArchiveInfo`s instead
of separate paths and archive formats. This bundling simplifies bank
rebuilding.
This commit also renames `snapshot_interval_slots` to
`full_snapshot_archive_interval_slots`, updates the comments on the
fields, and make appropriate updates where SnapshotConfig is used.
This commit adds high-level functions for creating and loading-from
incremental snapshots, plus all low-level functions required to perform
those tasks. This commit **does not** add taking incremental snapshots
as part of a running validator, nor starting up a node with an
incremental snapshot; just laying ground work.
Additionally, `snapshot_utils` and `serde_snapshot` have been
refactored to use a common code paths for the different snapshots.
Also of note, some renaming has happened:
1. Snapshots are now either `full_` or `incremental_` throughout the
codebase. If not specified, the code applies to both.
2. Bank snapshots now are called "bank snapshots"
(before they were called "slot snapshots", "bank snapshots", or
just "snapshots"). The one exception is within `Bank`, where they
are still just "snapshots", because they are already "bank
snapshots".
3. Snapshot archives now have `_archive` in the code. This
should clear up an ambiguity between bank snapshots and snapshot
archives.
