* Added sizeshift to proof of work and encoding as VLQ
* Fix some loose ends to get things to compile
* Rename sizehift to min_sizeshift
* Pipeline checks for PoW Cuckoo Cycle size shift and adjustment
factor before difficulty comparison.
* Working delta+VLQ encoding of u64 PoW, unfortunately still a
little larger than u32, at least for Cuckoo30.
* Changed binary encoding of proof of work to a sequence of exact
compact bit representation of each nonce. Somewhat simpler,
shorter and matches the data to be hashed.
* Few fixes based on @tromp feedback:
* Max nonce is 2^(N-1)
* Need a separate constant for reference sizeshift
* Cuckoo implementation now conserves sizeshift. Test providing a
block at higher sizeshift.
* Last small overflow protection
* we do not need Merkle proofs to spend coinbase outputs
we only need the output_mmr_size from the block header
* tests working with no Merkle proofs in inputs
* implement prune_list as a bitmap
and simplify
* cleanup prune_list, use maximum()
* handle migration of prune_list to new bitmap prun file
* legacy filename consts
* cleanup and docs
* implement prune_list as a bitmap
and simplify
* cleanup prune_list, use maximum()
* handle migration of prune_list to new bitmap prun file
* legacy filename consts
* cleanup and docs
We used to hash the hash of the header, needlessly. This also
makes a few function signatures more explicit.
Note that this is consensus breaking and should be accompanied
with a similar change on the cuckoo-pow repository:
6fcecf516aFixes#1066
* Migrate main node store to LMDB
In preparation to using LMDB as a wallet database, migrate the
node db. There's no point in having 2 key-value stores.
In addition LMDB provides a few advantages as a node db, namely a
much faster build (compared to RocksDb), lesser dependencies and
transactions.
* Migrated p2p store to lmdb, stuff compiles
* More fixes, chain tests starting to pass
* Fixed txhashset rollback messing with block save and general batch delimitation. Chain tests passing.
* rustfmt
* LMDB max map size of 10MB isn't really workable. Half TB seems reasonable.
* Fix wallet tests
* Rather crucial commit was missing
* rustfmt
* Fixing new merged tests following lmdb changes
* rustfmt
* * Make txhashset validation read-only on fast sync to avoid having
a really long open transaction.
* Fix deadlock in new block processing, batch should always be
created within a txhashset lock (when they interact).
* Comment about batch and txhashset interlacing
* Fix store tests to use batch
* Externalize wallet config and seed
* Converted direct read access to file outputs map to an iterator
* Cleaned up and simplified wallet Backend trait:
* No more direct mutable access to internal structures (HashMap)
* Batch interface for all writes
* Remove unneeded read wrapper (read_wallet)
* rustfmt
* First (incomplete) pass at wallet LMDB backend
* Progressing on lmdb backent iml
* Added batch impl for LMDB wallet backend. Pretty much done with it, but not sure how to deal with commit (owned).
* rustfmt
* Wrapping LMDB batch around a refcell to work around borrow rules
* Compilation up to grin chain
* Add kernel commitments sum and kernel and output MMR sizes to block header
* Sum a block without including previous sums, cleanup. Blocks are now summed and validated based on their own totals and not the totals since genesis. This allows to get rid of BlockSum and simplified the setting of a new block's roots, kernel sum and MMR sizes. Fixes#116
* Additional kernel MMR validation to check all prior header roots successively
* Wallet tests fix
* only store leaves in rm_log
* cleanup
* commit
* add failing test to cover case where we compact
an already compacted data file
* fix the logic for pruning the data file
* rm_log only contains leaves
prunelist only contains non-leaf subtree roots
* cleanup
* commit
* bitmap impl running in parallel
* rustfmt
* this is better - rewind unremoves outpu pos spent by rewound inputs
* commit
* commit
* pass bitmap around when rewinding
* store and retrieve input bitmap per block from the db
* Replace the RemoveLog with the UTXO set.
* utxo set starting to pass tests
* stuff works...
* split store types out
added some tests to compare the performance of the rm_log and the proposed utxo_set
* pull prune_list out into standalone file
* cleanup, get rid of unused height param
* cleanup and add doc comments
* add support for migrating rm_log to utxo_set
* take snapshot of utxo file during fast sync
implement migration of rm_log -> utxo_set
* rename rewound_copy to snapshot
* fixup pmmr tests to reflect cutoff_pos
* cleanup unused import
* check_compact needs to rewind the utxo_set as appropriate
* fix pool tests
* fixup core tests
* cache block_input_bitmaps via LruCache in store
* cache block header on initial write to db
* rename utxo_set -> leaf_set
and remove references to "spent" in grin_store
* better document the rewind behavior
* StratumServer RPC extra-quotes fix
* better - skip intermediate string
* Fix invalid json _ok_ response
* Undo protocol-breaking change to ok response
* use RpcError structure rather than string to avoid extra quoting
Also added some minor clarifications on the setup and verification of `x*G` on other chain, as well as a more detailed section on how this would work on bitcoin.
