* Integrate PMMR and its persistent backend with the Chain
* Chain can set tree roots; PMMR backend discard
* Check spent and prune for each input in new block
* Handling of forks by rewinding the state
* More PMMR tests and fixes, mostly around rewind
* Rewrite get_unspent to use the sumtrees, fix remaining compilation issues
* use head_header in add_to_memory_pool
* add COINBASE_MATURITY const to consensus
* add coinbase maturity (wip) validaton rule to validate_block
* add coinbase maturity check to validate_block
* map errors in adapters - specific errors still wip
* reworked so adapter translates chain errors to pool errors (core errors not required)
* add test for spending immature coinbase in memory pool
* wip - add test to cover spending coinbase output in chain.process_block
* added test coverage around process_block - we have a problem with coinbase output commitments
* add a comment on the failing test
* process_block will now fail validation if we attempt to spend coinbase that has not yet matured
(remember to use a new reward_key for every block). test coverage in place to verify this
* Adding output stats from plugin, when available
* adding grin config
* moving pow crate from core/pow to it's own crate
* moving POW/mining stuff into pow module, and removing mining dependency from chain
* refactored most of mining into pow module...miner.rs still in server
* update grin tests
* updating genesis block mining to use configured miner, if available
* chain tests back into chain, done with pow refactor
* use tag of cuckoo-miner for pr
* minor cleanup - unused imports
* cleanup build warnings - unused vars
* make structs pub to get rid of the private_in_public lint warning
* missing docs on RangeProof
* add missing docs to store delete function
* cleaned up deprecation warning -
tokio_core -> tokio_io
complete() -> send()
* playing around with changing cuckoo sizes on the fly
* modifying tests to use global cuckoo parameters, and checking results
* check for pow size
* Changing global function names, and removing length from POW serialization
When a new block is rejected by the validation pipeline as orphan,
the chain now keeps it in a ring buffer of capped size. Anytime
a new block is accepted, all orphans in the ring buffer are
retried. This is helpful to handle all the cases where we receive
blocks out of order for networking/timing reasons.
Introduce a new Chain struct that maintains the current head,
acts as facade to the store and the block processing pipeline
and handles all appropriate locking.
All higher level components, like the overall server, REST APIs
and miner have been update to only depend on Chain. Cleaned up
some duplication and tests now that there's a single entry point
to all blockchain operations.
Integrate the new difficulty calculation into the block chain
validation, the miner and tests. As the difficulty calculation
doesn't use varying Cuckoo sizes anymore and we narrowed down
reasonable final Cuckoo Cycle parameters, removed all Cuckoo
Cycle sizes from block headers.
Formalized easier Cuckoo Cycle sizes for testing (and possibly
testnet) by introducing a test mode in configuration. Updated
all tests.
Fixes a few loose ends in the full cycle of sending coins,
accepting them, pushing that transaction to the pool and having it
mined. More specifically:
* The API output endpoint needs to be a UTXO endpoint, as the
server can't make any guarantee about having a spent output.
* Bubbling up HTTP not found errors.
* Wallet output status checker now handles spent outputs.
* Transaction pool validates the transaction before accepting it.
* Fixed the operation API routes.
* Fixed too greedy wallet coin selection loop.
Adds checks to ignore a block that's already known (can happen
if the block was saved but the chain update failed). Also saves
saves the chain slightly differently during bootstrap as the
header chain should only be updated when a header is received
(and not when we got a full block). Finally, do not broadcast
during bootstrap.
Block, Output and Kernel now have bitmasks to hold supported
features and eventually versioning. Will make adding features and
updates easier and open the possibility of soft forks.
First added feature for Output and Kernel is the marking of coinbase
related ones. Allows the validation of the coinbase part of a block.
