The trust metric tracks the quality of the peers.
|
|
When a peer exceeds a certain quality for a certain amount of time,
|
|
it is marked as vetted in the addrbook.
|
|
If a vetted peer's quality degrades sufficiently, it is booted, and must prove itself from scratch.
|
|
If we need to make room for a new vetted peer, we move the lowest scoring vetted peer back to unvetted.
|
|
If we need to make room for a new unvetted peer, we remove the lowest scoring unvetted peer -
|
|
possibly only if its below some absolute minimum ?
|
|
|
|
Peer quality is tracked in the connection and across the reactors.
|
|
Behaviours are defined as one of:
|
|
- fatal - something outright malicious. we should disconnect and remember them.
|
|
- bad - any kind of timeout, msgs that dont unmarshal, or fail other validity checks, or msgs we didn't ask for or arent expecting
|
|
- neutral - normal correct behaviour. unknown channels/msg types (version upgrades).
|
|
- good - some random majority of peers per reactor sending us useful messages
