# ABCI

ABCI is the interface between Tendermint (a state-machine replication engine)

# ABCI Applications
|
||||
|
||||
Please ensure you've first read the spec for [ABCI Methods and Types](abci.md)
|
||||
|
||||
Here we cover the following components of ABCI applications:
|
||||
|
||||
- [State](#State) - the interplay between ABCI connections and application state
|
||||
and the differences between `CheckTx` and `DeliverTx`.
|
||||
- [Validator Set Updates](#Validator-Set-Updates) - how validator sets are
|
||||
changed during `InitChain` and `EndBlock`
|
||||
- [Query](#Query) - standards for using the `Query` method
|
||||
- [Crash Recovery](#Crash-Recovery) - handshake protocol to synchronize
|
||||
Tendermint and the application on startup.
|
||||
|
||||
## State
|
||||
|
||||
Since Tendermint maintains multiple concurrent ABCI connections, it is typical
|
||||
for an application to maintain a distinct state for each, and for the states to
|
||||
be sycnronized during `Commit`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Commit
|
||||
|
||||
Before `Commit` is called, Tendermint locks and flushes the mempool so that no new messages will
|
||||
be received on the mempool connection. This provides an opportunity to safely update all three
|
||||
states to the latest committed state at once.
|
||||
|
||||
When `Commit` completes, it unlocks the mempool.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that it is not possible to send transactions to Tendermint during `Commit` - if your app
|
||||
tries to send a `/broadcast_tx` to Tendermint during Commit, it will deadlock.
|
||||
|
||||
### Consensus Connection
|
||||
|
||||
The Consensus Connection should maintain a `DeliverTxState` -
|
||||
the working state for block execution. It should be updated by the calls to
|
||||
`BeginBlock`, `DeliverTx`, and `EndBlock` during block execution and committed to
|
||||
disk as the "latest committed state" during `Commit`.
|
||||
|
||||
Updates made to the DeliverTxState by each method call must be readable by each subsequent method -
|
||||
ie. the updates are linearizeable.
|
||||
|
||||
### Mempool Connection
|
||||
|
||||
The Mempool Connection should maintain a `CheckTxState` -
|
||||
to process pending transactions in the mempool that have
|
||||
not yet been committed. It should be initialized to the latest committed state
|
||||
at the end of every `Commit`. Note it may be updated concurrently with the
|
||||
DeliverTxState.
|
||||
|
||||
Before calling `Commit`, Tendermint will lock and flush the mempool,
|
||||
ensuring that all existing CheckTx are responded to and no new ones can
|
||||
begin.
|
||||
|
||||
After `Commit`, CheckTx is run again on all transactions that remain in the
|
||||
node's local mempool after filtering those included in the block. To prevent the
|
||||
mempool from rechecking all transactions every time a block is committed, set
|
||||
the configuration option `mempool.recheck=false`.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, the mempool will unlock and new transactions can be processed through CheckTx again.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that CheckTx doesn't have to check everything that affects transaction validity; the
|
||||
expensive things can be skipped. In fact, CheckTx doesn't have to check
|
||||
anything; it might say that any transaction is a valid transaction.
|
||||
Unlike DeliverTx, CheckTx is just there as
|
||||
a sort of weak filter to keep invalid transactions out of the blockchain. It's
|
||||
weak, because a Byzantine node doesn't care about CheckTx; it can propose a
|
||||
block full of invalid transactions if it wants.
|
||||
|
||||
### Info Connection
|
||||
|
||||
The Mempool Connection should maintain a `QueryState` for answering queries from the user,
|
||||
and for initialization when Tendermint first starts up.
|
||||
It should always contain the latest committed state associated with the
|
||||
latest commited block.
|
||||
|
||||
QueryState should be set to the latest `DeliverTxState` at the end of every `Commit`,
|
||||
ie. after the full block has been processed and the state committed to disk.
|
||||
Otherwise it should never be modified.
|
||||
|
||||
## Validator Updates
|
||||
|
||||
### EndBlock
|
||||
|
||||
Updates to the Tendermint validator set can be made by returning
|
||||
`ValidatorUpdate` objects in the `ResponseEndBlock`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
message ValidatorUpdate {
|
||||
PubKey pub_key
|
||||
int64 power
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
message PubKey {
|
||||
string type
|
||||
bytes data
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `pub_key` currently supports only one type:
|
||||
|
||||
- `type = "ed25519" and`data = <raw 32-byte public key>`
|
||||
|
||||
The `power` is the new voting power for the validator, with the
|
||||
following rules:
|
||||
|
||||
- power must be non-negative
|
||||
- if power is 0, the validator must already exist, and will be removed from the
|
||||
validator set
|
||||
- if power is non-0:
|
||||
- if the validator does not already exist, it will be added to the validator
|
||||
set with the given power
|
||||
- if the validator does already exist, its power will be adjusted to the given power
|
||||
|
||||
### InitChain
|
||||
|
||||
ResponseInitChain has the option to return a list of validators.
|
||||
If the list is not empty, Tendermint will adopt it for the validator set.
|
||||
This way the application can determine the initial validator set for the
|
||||
blockchain.
|
||||
|
||||
ResponseInitChain also includes ConsensusParams, but these are presently
|
||||
ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
## Query
|
||||
|
||||
Query is a generic message type with lots of flexibility to enable diverse sets
|
||||
of queries from applications. Tendermint has no requirements from the Query
|
||||
message for normal operation - that is, the ABCI app developer need not implement Query functionality if they do not wish too.
|
||||
That said, Tendermint makes a number of queries to support some optional
|
||||
features. These are:
|
||||
|
||||
### Peer Filtering
|
||||
|
||||
When Tendermint connects to a peer, it sends two queries to the ABCI application
|
||||
using the following paths, with no additional data:
|
||||
|
||||
- `/p2p/filter/addr/<IP:PORT>`, where `<IP:PORT>` denote the IP address and
|
||||
the port of the connection
|
||||
- `p2p/filter/id/<ID>`, where `<ID>` is the peer node ID (ie. the
|
||||
pubkey.Address() for the peer's PubKey)
|
||||
|
||||
If either of these queries return a non-zero ABCI code, Tendermint will refuse
|
||||
to connect to the peer.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Crash Recovery
|
||||
|
||||
On startup, Tendermint calls the `Info` method on the Info Connection to get the latest
|
||||
committed state of the app. The app MUST return information consistent with the
|
||||
last block it succesfully completed Commit for.
|
||||
|
||||
If the app succesfully committed block H but not H+1, then `last_block_height = H` and `last_block_app_hash = <hash returned by Commit for block H>`. If the app
|
||||
failed during the Commit of block H, then `last_block_height = H-1` and
|
||||
`last_block_app_hash = <hash returned by Commit for block H-1, which is the hash in the header of block H>`.
|
||||
|
||||
We now distinguish three heights, and describe how Tendermint syncs itself with
|
||||
the app.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
storeBlockHeight = height of the last block Tendermint saw a commit for
|
||||
stateBlockHeight = height of the last block for which Tendermint completed all
|
||||
block processing and saved all ABCI results to disk
|
||||
appBlockHeight = height of the last block for which ABCI app succesfully
|
||||
completely Commit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note we always have `storeBlockHeight >= stateBlockHeight` and `storeBlockHeight >= appBlockHeight`
|
||||
Note also we never call Commit on an ABCI app twice for the same height.
|
||||
|
||||
The procedure is as follows.
|
||||
|
||||
First, some simeple start conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight == 0`, then call InitChain.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == 0`, we're done.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, some sanity checks:
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight < appBlockHeight`, error
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight < stateBlockHeight`, panic
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight > stateBlockHeight+1`, panic
|
||||
|
||||
Now, the meat:
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight && appBlockHeight < storeBlockHeight`,
|
||||
replay all blocks in full from `appBlockHeight` to `storeBlockHeight`.
|
||||
This happens if we completed processing the block, but the app forgot its height.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight && appBlockHeight == storeBlockHeight`, we're done
|
||||
This happens if we crashed at an opportune spot.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight+1`
|
||||
This happens if we started processing the block but didn't finish.
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight < stateBlockHeight`
|
||||
replay all blocks in full from `appBlockHeight` to `storeBlockHeight-1`,
|
||||
and replay the block at `storeBlockHeight` using the WAL.
|
||||
This happens if the app forgot the last block it committed.
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight`,
|
||||
replay the last block (storeBlockHeight) in full.
|
||||
This happens if we crashed before the app finished Commit
|
||||
|
||||
If appBlockHeight == storeBlockHeight {
|
||||
update the state using the saved ABCI responses but dont run the block against the real app.
|
||||
This happens if we crashed after the app finished Commit but before Tendermint saved the state.

# ABCI Client and Server
|
||||
|
||||
This section is for those looking to implement their own ABCI Server, perhaps in
|
||||
a new programming language.
|
||||
|
||||
You are expected to have read [ABCI Methods and Types](abci.md) and [ABCI
|
||||
Applications](apps.md).
|
||||
|
||||
See additional details in the [ABCI
|
||||
readme](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/abci/README.md)(TODO: deduplicate
|
||||
those details).
|
||||
|
||||
## Message Protocol
|
||||
|
||||
The message protocol consists of pairs of requests and responses defined in the
|
||||
[protobuf file](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/abci/types/types.proto).
|
||||
|
||||
Some messages have no fields, while others may include byte-arrays, strings, integers,
|
||||
or custom protobuf types.
|
||||
|
||||
For more details on protobuf, see the [documentation](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/overview).
|
||||
|
||||
For each request, a server should respond with the corresponding
|
||||
response, where the order of requests is preserved in the order of
|
||||
responses.
|
||||
|
||||
## Server
|
||||
|
||||
To use ABCI in your programming language of choice, there must be a ABCI
|
||||
server in that language. Tendermint supports two kinds of implementation
|
||||
of the server:
|
||||
|
||||
- Asynchronous, raw socket server (Tendermint Socket Protocol, also
|
||||
known as TSP or Teaspoon)
|
||||
- GRPC
|
||||
|
||||
Both can be tested using the `abci-cli` by setting the `--abci` flag
|
||||
appropriately (ie. to `socket` or `grpc`).
|
||||
|
||||
See examples, in various stages of maintenance, in
|
||||
[Go](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/tree/develop/abci/server),
|
||||
[JavaScript](https://github.com/tendermint/js-abci),
|
||||
[Python](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/tree/develop/abci/example/python3/abci),
|
||||
[C++](https://github.com/mdyring/cpp-tmsp), and
|
||||
[Java](https://github.com/jTendermint/jabci).
|
||||
|
||||
### GRPC
|
||||
|
||||
If GRPC is available in your language, this is the easiest approach,
|
||||
though it will have significant performance overhead.
|
||||
|
||||
To get started with GRPC, copy in the [protobuf
|
||||
file](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/abci/types/types.proto)
|
||||
and compile it using the GRPC plugin for your language. For instance,
|
||||
for golang, the command is `protoc --go_out=plugins=grpc:. types.proto`.
|
||||
See the [grpc documentation for more details](http://www.grpc.io/docs/).
|
||||
`protoc` will autogenerate all the necessary code for ABCI client and
|
||||
server in your language, including whatever interface your application
|
||||
must satisfy to be used by the ABCI server for handling requests.
|
||||
|
||||
### TSP
|
||||
|
||||
If GRPC is not available in your language, or you require higher
|
||||
performance, or otherwise enjoy programming, you may implement your own
|
||||
ABCI server using the Tendermint Socket Protocol, known affectionately
|
||||
as Teaspoon. The first step is still to auto-generate the relevant data
|
||||
types and codec in your language using `protoc`. Messages coming over
|
||||
the socket are proto3 encoded, but additionally length-prefixed to
|
||||
facilitate use as a streaming protocol. proto3 doesn't have an
|
||||
official length-prefix standard, so we use our own. The first byte in
|
||||
the prefix represents the length of the Big Endian encoded length. The
|
||||
remaining bytes in the prefix are the Big Endian encoded length.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if the proto3 encoded ABCI message is 0xDEADBEEF (4
|
||||
bytes), the length-prefixed message is 0x0104DEADBEEF. If the proto3
|
||||
encoded ABCI message is 65535 bytes long, the length-prefixed message
|
||||
would be like 0x02FFFF....
|
||||
|
||||
Note this prefixing does not apply for grpc.
|
||||
|
||||
An ABCI server must also be able to support multiple connections, as
|
||||
Tendermint uses three connections.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Async vs Sync
|
||||
|
||||
The main ABCI server (ie. non-GRPC) provides ordered asynchronous messages.
|
||||
This is useful for DeliverTx and CheckTx, since it allows Tendermint to forward
|
||||
transactions to the app before it's finished processing previous ones.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, DeliverTx and CheckTx messages are sent asycnhronously, while all other
|
||||
messages are sent synchronously.
|
||||
|
||||
## Client
|
||||
|
||||
There are currently two use-cases for an ABCI client. One is a testing
|
||||
tool, as in the `abci-cli`, which allows ABCI requests to be sent via
|
||||
command line. The other is a consensus engine, such as Tendermint Core,
|
||||
which makes requests to the application every time a new transaction is
|
||||
received or a block is committed.
|
||||
|
||||
It is unlikely that you will need to implement a client. For details of
|
||||
our client, see
|
||||
[here](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/tree/develop/abci/client).

# Application Blockchain Interface (ABCI)
|
||||
|
||||
ABCI is the interface between Tendermint (a state-machine replication engine)
|
||||
and an application (the actual state machine).
|
||||
|
||||
The ABCI message types are defined in a [protobuf
|
||||
file](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/abci/types/types.proto).
|
||||
|
||||
For full details on the ABCI message types and protocol, see the [ABCI
|
||||
specification](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/docs/app-dev/abci-spec.md).
|
||||
Be sure to read the specification if you're trying to build an ABCI app!
|
||||
|
||||
For additional details on server implementation, see the [ABCI
|
||||
readme](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/abci/README.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Here we provide some more details around the use of ABCI by Tendermint and
|
||||
clarify common "gotchas".
|
||||
|
||||
## ABCI connections
|
||||
|
||||
Tendermint opens 3 ABCI connections to the app: one for Consensus, one for
|
||||
Mempool, one for Queries.
|
||||
|
||||
## Async vs Sync
|
||||
|
||||
The main ABCI server (ie. non-GRPC) provides ordered asynchronous messages.
|
||||
This is useful for DeliverTx and CheckTx, since it allows Tendermint to forward
|
||||
transactions to the app before it's finished processing previous ones.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, DeliverTx and CheckTx messages are sent asycnhronously, while all other
|
||||
messages are sent synchronously.
|
||||
|
||||
## CheckTx and Commit
|
||||
|
||||
It is typical to hold three distinct states in an ABCI app: CheckTxState, DeliverTxState,
|
||||
QueryState. The QueryState contains the latest committed state for a block.
|
||||
The CheckTxState and DeliverTxState may be updated concurrently with one another.
|
||||
Before Commit is called, Tendermint locks and flushes the mempool so that no new changes will happen
|
||||
to CheckTxState. When Commit completes, it unlocks the mempool.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, during Commit, it is safe to reset the QueryState and the CheckTxState to the latest DeliverTxState
|
||||
(ie. the new state from executing all the txs in the block).
|
||||
|
||||
Note, however, that it is not possible to send transactions to Tendermint during Commit - if your app
|
||||
tries to send a `/broadcast_tx` to Tendermint during Commit, it will deadlock.
|
||||
|
||||
## EndBlock Validator Updates
|
||||
|
||||
Updates to the Tendermint validator set can be made by returning `Validator`
|
||||
objects in the `ResponseBeginBlock`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
message Validator {
|
||||
PubKey pub_key
|
||||
int64 power
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
message PubKey {
|
||||
string type
|
||||
bytes data
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `pub_key` currently supports two types:
|
||||
|
||||
- `type = "ed25519" and`data = <raw 32-byte public key>`
|
||||
- `type = "secp256k1" and `data = <33-byte OpenSSL compressed public key>`
|
||||
|
||||
If the address is provided, it must match the address of the pubkey, as
|
||||
specified [here](/docs/spec/blockchain/encoding.md#Addresses)
|
||||
|
||||
(Note: In the v0.19 series, the `pub_key` is the [Amino encoded public
|
||||
key](/docs/spec/blockchain/encoding.md#public-key-cryptography).
|
||||
For Ed25519 pubkeys, the Amino prefix is always "1624DE6220". For example, the 32-byte Ed25519 pubkey
|
||||
`76852933A4686A721442E931A8415F62F5F1AEDF4910F1F252FB393F74C40C85` would be
|
||||
Amino encoded as
|
||||
`1624DE622076852933A4686A721442E931A8415F62F5F1AEDF4910F1F252FB393F74C40C85`)
|
||||
|
||||
(Note: In old versions of Tendermint (pre-v0.19.0), the pubkey is just prefixed with a
|
||||
single type byte, so for ED25519 we'd have `pub_key = 0x1 | pub`)
|
||||
|
||||
The `power` is the new voting power for the validator, with the
|
||||
following rules:
|
||||
|
||||
- power must be non-negative
|
||||
- if power is 0, the validator must already exist, and will be removed from the
|
||||
validator set
|
||||
- if power is non-0:
|
||||
- if the validator does not already exist, it will be added to the validator
|
||||
set with the given power
|
||||
- if the validator does already exist, its power will be adjusted to the given power
|
||||
|
||||
## InitChain Validator Updates
|
||||
|
||||
ResponseInitChain has the option to return a list of validators.
|
||||
If the list is not empty, Tendermint will adopt it for the validator set.
|
||||
This way the application can determine the initial validator set for the
|
||||
blockchain.
|
||||
|
||||
ResponseInitChain also includes ConsensusParams, but these are presently
|
||||
ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
## Query
|
||||
|
||||
Query is a generic message type with lots of flexibility to enable diverse sets
|
||||
of queries from applications. Tendermint has no requirements from the Query
|
||||
message for normal operation - that is, the ABCI app developer need not implement Query functionality if they do not wish too.
|
||||
That said, Tendermint makes a number of queries to support some optional
|
||||
features. These are:
|
||||
|
||||
### Peer Filtering
|
||||
|
||||
When Tendermint connects to a peer, it sends two queries to the ABCI application
|
||||
using the following paths, with no additional data:
|
||||
|
||||
- `/p2p/filter/addr/<IP:PORT>`, where `<IP:PORT>` denote the IP address and
|
||||
the port of the connection
|
||||
- `p2p/filter/id/<ID>`, where `<ID>` is the peer node ID (ie. the
|
||||
pubkey.Address() for the peer's PubKey)
|
||||
|
||||
If either of these queries return a non-zero ABCI code, Tendermint will refuse
|
||||
to connect to the peer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Info and the Handshake/Replay
|
||||
|
||||
On startup, Tendermint calls Info on the Query connection to get the latest
|
||||
committed state of the app. The app MUST return information consistent with the
|
||||
last block it succesfully completed Commit for.
|
||||
|
||||
If the app succesfully committed block H but not H+1, then `last_block_height = H` and `last_block_app_hash = <hash returned by Commit for block H>`. If the app
|
||||
failed during the Commit of block H, then `last_block_height = H-1` and
|
||||
`last_block_app_hash = <hash returned by Commit for block H-1, which is the hash in the header of block H>`.
|
||||
|
||||
We now distinguish three heights, and describe how Tendermint syncs itself with
|
||||
the app.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
storeBlockHeight = height of the last block Tendermint saw a commit for
|
||||
stateBlockHeight = height of the last block for which Tendermint completed all
|
||||
block processing and saved all ABCI results to disk
|
||||
appBlockHeight = height of the last block for which ABCI app succesfully
|
||||
completely Commit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note we always have `storeBlockHeight >= stateBlockHeight` and `storeBlockHeight >= appBlockHeight`
|
||||
Note also we never call Commit on an ABCI app twice for the same height.
|
||||
|
||||
The procedure is as follows.
|
||||
|
||||
First, some simeple start conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight == 0`, then call InitChain.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == 0`, we're done.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, some sanity checks:
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight < appBlockHeight`, error
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight < stateBlockHeight`, panic
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight > stateBlockHeight+1`, panic
|
||||
|
||||
Now, the meat:
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight && appBlockHeight < storeBlockHeight`,
|
||||
replay all blocks in full from `appBlockHeight` to `storeBlockHeight`.
|
||||
This happens if we completed processing the block, but the app forgot its height.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight && appBlockHeight == storeBlockHeight`, we're done
|
||||
This happens if we crashed at an opportune spot.
|
||||
|
||||
If `storeBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight+1`
|
||||
This happens if we started processing the block but didn't finish.
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight < stateBlockHeight`
|
||||
replay all blocks in full from `appBlockHeight` to `storeBlockHeight-1`,
|
||||
and replay the block at `storeBlockHeight` using the WAL.
|
||||
This happens if the app forgot the last block it committed.
|
||||
|
||||
If `appBlockHeight == stateBlockHeight`,
|
||||
replay the last block (storeBlockHeight) in full.
|
||||
This happens if we crashed before the app finished Commit
|
||||
|
||||
If appBlockHeight == storeBlockHeight {
|
||||
update the state using the saved ABCI responses but dont run the block against the real app.
|
||||
This happens if we crashed after the app finished Commit but before Tendermint saved the state.
