When processing a new block, attemps to make the scope of the
corresponding `txhashet` lock as small as possible. The idea is
to avoid bad interactions with orphan locks or block post
processing (i.e. adapter events, etc)
* Go back to db for head and header_head
* Use batch consistently for db access
* Pass active txhashset and batch in the ctx
* Only update head in db if total work increases
* Only updated header_head if total work (on header chain) increases
* cuck placeholder
* rustfmt
* cuckatoo, early days
* rustfmt
* data structures are in place, siphash key creation is consistent with @tromp
* solver in place, (not yet working)
* cuckatoo test solver working with test nonce
* rustfmt
* update solver to remove adjacency list removals
* verifier functioning
* rustfmt
* Proper error handing in Cuckatoo module, couple of tests
* modify cuckoo/cuckatoo solvers and verifiers to function identically, in advance of trait refactoring
* rustfmt
* refactor PoW context into trait, default to using cuckoo context
* rustfmt
* create macros for integer casting/unwraps
* don't instantiate structs when just verifying, add test validation vector for cuckatoo 29
* rustfmt
* don't init cuckoo structs if just validating
* test fix
* ensure BH hashing for POW is only done within miner/validators
* introduce rewindable_kernel_view
cleanup header in extension
* cleanup and docs/comments
* txhashset does not need to be mutable here
* pull validate_kernel_history out into fn
* block_sums and full kernel sum verification
* rustfmt
* add docs/comments
* docs
* rustfmt
* comment on fact total_kernel_sum is redundant now
* make sure we setup block_sums correctly on a fork
* rustfmt
* replace those asserts with errors
* rustfmt
* Move Proof and Difficulty types to pow module. Difficulty scaling calculation.
* Diffculty scaling and size shift for 2nd PoW
* Backport e7eb26ee
* Test compilation fixes
* Scaling only need to go one way, as @tromp pointed out
* fix: if block in orphans queue has a forked parent, cause infinite loop in check_orphans()
* process all orphans at a given height before go to next height
* refactor txhashset to only take a single header
no need to pass in current head_header each time
* rustfmt
* fix bug introduced in rewind with LMDB
* rustfmt
* add some comments
* Check txhashset content before zip/unzip
* Add header in txhashset verification
* Add copy function and test
* Add file util
* Now check and remove unexpected files instead of just crashing
* Refactor hash cache handling to add properly. Only add to cache if the block is definitevely accepted or rejected.
* Dedup of header processing now looks like premature optimization. Very fast anyway. Removing the header hash cache.
* Remove now unnecessary txhashset write lock
* Ring buffer of hashes the chain has already processed
* Specifically report too old blocks as peer should be banned
* Move sync check for block relay, clean TODO
* No use processing transactions when syncing
* Ignore blocks older than horizon in pruning nodes
* fix misbehaving simulnet fastsync test
cleanup redundant cutoff vs bitmap params is rewind and check_compact
* make sure we do not verify full kernel history on a writeable txhashset extension
rework simulnet simulate_fast_sync test to be more robust
* fixup store tests
* sleep for a bit longer to give nodes time to update
their sync_state correctly
* tweak timing of simulate_block_propagation
Only rewind kernels to avoid requiring proper bitmap extraction. Also avoids maintaining bitmap data for kernels by introducing a "prunable" flag on PMMR backend.
* A new sync status enum encapsulated in a state struct allows tracking of where sync is at. Leveraging it in the TUI to provide more helpful messages.
* Percentage progression for most sync steps
