* port across "simple_sync" changes from testnet1 branch
Cleanup direct refs to peer map or peer store
P2P server acts as a facade, handling the list of connected peers
and the storage of their information. Everything else goes through
the p2p server instead of having a peer map reference or going
straight to the store.
Fix p2p tests
* fix "monitoring peers" log msg (use connected_peers)
* add total_diff to ping/pong msgs
debug log for total_diff on each ping/pong
* expose peer addr to the handle_payload fn
so we know where it came from
* fix p2p tests for ping
* default to 0 if we cannot read total_difficulty
* updating a connected peer in place
* actually update peer info diff
* fixup p2p tests
Renamed mining parameter mode to chain type, with existing types
of CI testing, user testing, testnet1 or mainnet. The public
chains (testnet1 and mainnet) come with their fully pre-defined
genesis block.
Still need to set the nonce and cycle for testnet1 genesis.
* use HashMap internally for tracking connected peers (to avoid duplicates)
* reuse the handshake on the server so we can track our own nonce to avoid self connections correctly
* make sure we start up the clean_peers loop even in seedless mode
* logging in monitoring peers loop
* simplify monitoring for no seeds
* fixup and cleanup simulnet tests (real seeds in places)
* only start the sync if we have either seeds or peers that we know about, exit syncer safely if we have no connected peers
Moved the HTTP APIs away from the REST endpoint abstraction and
to simpler Hyper handlers. Re-established all routes as v1.
Changed wallet receiver port to 13415 to avoid a gap in port
numbers.
Finally, rustfmt seems to have ignored specific files arguments,
running on everything.
* added global slog instance, changed all logging macro formats to include logger instance
* adding configuration to logging, allowing for multiple log outputs
* updates to test, changes to build docs
* rustfmt
* moving logging functions into util crate
Configuration for a minum accept fee base for the transaction
pool. The base is multipled by a weight computed from the
transaction number of inputs, outputs and kernels. The transaction
fee is required to always be larger than the weight times the
base.
min_fee = base * (-1*input_len + 4*output_len + kernel_len)
The weight is set to never be less than one.
Also added a configurable (and fairly naive for now) max pool
capacity in number of transactions.
* 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
* Adding ability to serialise parts of the header, pre-nonce and post-nonce
* Some test integration of queueing functions in cuckoo-miner
* more cuckoo-miner async mode integration, now more or less working
* integrating async miner workflow
* rocksdb update
* u64 internal difficulty representation, and integration of latest Cuckoo-miner API
* change to cuckoo-miner notify function
* Issue in testing, and if use_async value is None in grin.toml
* making async mode explicit in tests - 2
* fiddle with port numbers for CI
* update tag to ensure cuckoo-miner build doesn't fail on windows
* change the order in which tests are run
* Adding cuckoo-miner into grin as a proper dependency now
* Defaulting to using cuckoo-miner
* Updates to tests to use cuckoo_miner by default, (using cuckoo16)
* addition of configuration file to grin executable, instructions on how it's picked up are in grin.toml
* Starting to add a configuration file, and change some elements of configuration structures to make them more consistent
* Refactoring to allow for different miner implementations. Added conditional support for compiling and loading the cuckoo-miner plugin project.
* Small changes to experimentally integrate with cuckoo-miner and compatibility with latest version of cuckoo-miner.
* Turning off inclusion of cuckoo_miner by default
* Disabling simulate_parallel_mining test for now
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.
* Beginning to add a POW description, and some minor changes to mining testing, addition of further debug information to mining output.
* Many additions to create first draft of POW documentation
* Fixes to difficult adjustments by adding a MINIMUM_DIFFICULTY consensus value. Otherwise never adjusted above 1 due to flooring.
* Starting to refactor test, adding http post to wallet sender
* Implemented ability to run servers on different ports (mostly for testing), and implemented ability to post http requests directly to receiving wallets
* Adding detailed instructions on running multiple servers on the same machine
* Changes to build.doc to outline server running process
* Removed unwanted debug statements
* WIP Local server testing framework evolution
* More refactoring of server pool, checked in because there's a problem
* Added server reference structure, and ability to return server references from tests cleanly
* Added simulate_parallel_mining test, which puts some artificial slowdown into test mining loops, and the difficulty can currently be watched in the log
* Removing the ServerRef structure placed in earlier and replaced with a ServerStats structure, that just returns relevant info about the Server state without exposing it to the world
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.
* Transactions coming from the network are now pushed to the pool
through the net adapter.
* New blocks accepted by the chain are sent to the pool for
eviction.
* The miner requests transactions from the pool to build its
blocks.
* The push API adds to the pool, removing the mock.
* Implementation of the adapter to the chain required by the pool
to get consistent UTXOs. Grossly unoptimized until we have the UTXO
MMR ready.
With the coinbase receiver daemon in place, when starting a Grin
server in mining mode, the miner will now ask the receiver for a
coinbase output. The output is then used to insert in a block when
successfully mined.
Adds a couple utility function to p2p server to check whether
we're already connected to a peer before trying again. Other
very minor fixes and logging improvements.
Moved error and configuration types from server.rs to types.rs
where they should have been from the start. Configuration types
for the server and p2p modules now derive serde Serialize and
Deserialize so we can have a simple JSON configuration file.
