||||
Changes in 0.10.0 (Sun Mar 01 2015)
|
||||
- Protocol and network related changes:
|
||||
- Add a new checkpoint at block height 343185
|
||||
- Implement BIP066 which includes support for version 3 blocks, a new
|
||||
consensus rule which prevents non-DER encoded signatures, and a
|
||||
double-threshold switchover mechanism
|
||||
- Rather than announcing all known addresses on getaddr requests which
|
||||
can possibly result in multiple messages, randomize the results and
|
||||
limit them to the max allowed by a single message (1000 addresses)
|
||||
- Add more reserved IP spaces to the address manager
|
||||
- Transaction relay (memory pool) changes:
|
||||
- Make transactions which contain reserved opcodes nonstandard
|
||||
- No longer accept or relay free and low-fee transactions that have
|
||||
insufficient priority to be mined in the next block
|
||||
- Implement support for the following rules specified by BIP0062:
|
||||
- ECDSA signature must use strict DER encoding (rule 1)
|
||||
- The signature script must only contain push operations (rule 2)
|
||||
- All push operations must use the smallest possible encoding (rule 3)
|
||||
- All stack values interpreted as a number must be encoding using the
|
||||
shortest possible form (rule 4)
|
||||
- NOTE: Rule 1 was already enforced, however the entire script now
|
||||
evaluates to false rather than only the signature verification as
|
||||
required by BIP0062
|
||||
- Allow transactions with nulldata transaction outputs to be treated as
|
||||
standard
|
||||
- Mining support changes:
|
||||
- Modify the getblocktemplate RPC to generate and return block templates
|
||||
for version 3 blocks which are compatible with BIP0066
|
||||
- Allow getblocktemplate to serve blocks when the current time is
|
||||
less than the minimum allowed time for a generated block template
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/209)
|
||||
- Crypto changes:
|
||||
- Optimize scalar multiplication by the base point by using a
|
||||
pre-computed table which results in approximately a 35% speedup
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcec/issues/2)
|
||||
- Optimize general scalar multiplication by using the secp256k1
|
||||
endomorphism which results in approximately a 17-20% speedup
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcec/issues/1)
|
||||
- Optimize general scalar multiplication by using non-adjacent form
|
||||
which results in approximately an additional 8% speedup
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcec/issues/3)
|
||||
- Implement optional address indexing:
|
||||
- Add a new parameter --addrindex which will enable the creation of an
|
||||
address index which can be queried to determine all transactions which
|
||||
involve a given address
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/190)
|
||||
- Add a new logging subsystem for address index related operations
|
||||
- Support new searchrawtransactions RPC
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/185)
|
||||
- RPC changes:
|
||||
- Require TLS version 1.2 as the minimum version for all TLS connections
|
||||
- Provide support for disabling TLS when only listening on localhost
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/pull/192)
|
||||
- Modify help output for all commands to provide much more consistent
|
||||
and detailed information
|
||||
- Correct case in getrawtransaction which would refuse to serve certain
|
||||
transactions with invalid scripts
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/210)
|
||||
- Correct error handling in the getrawtransaction RPC which could lead
|
||||
to a crash in rare cases
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/196)
|
||||
- Update getinfo RPC to include the appropriate 'timeoffset' calculated
|
||||
from the median network time
|
||||
- Modify listreceivedbyaddress result type to include txids field so it
|
||||
is compatible
|
||||
- Add 'iswatchonly' field to validateaddress result
|
||||
- Add 'startingpriority' and 'currentpriority' fields to getrawmempool
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/178)
|
||||
- Don't omit the 'confirmations' field from getrawtransaction when it is
|
||||
zero
|
||||
- Websocket changes:
|
||||
- Modify the behavior of the rescan command to automatically register
|
||||
for notifications about transactions paying to rescanned addresses
|
||||
or spending outputs from the final rescan utxo set when the rescan
|
||||
is through the best block in the chain
|
||||
- btcctl utility changes:
|
||||
- Make the list of commands available via the -l option rather than
|
||||
dumping the entire list on usage errors
|
||||
- Alphabetize and categorize the list of commands by chain and wallet
|
||||
- Make the help option only show the help options instead of also
|
||||
dumping all of the commands
|
||||
- Make the usage syntax much more consistent and correct a few cases of
|
||||
misnamed fields
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/305)
|
||||
- Improve usage errors to show the specific parameter number, reason,
|
||||
and error code
|
||||
- Only show the usage for specific command is shown when a valid command
|
||||
is provided with invalid parameters
|
||||
- Add support for a SOCK5 proxy
|
||||
- Modify output for integer fields (such as timestamps) to display
|
||||
normally instead in scientific notation
|
||||
- Add invalidateblock command
|
||||
- Add reconsiderblock command
|
||||
- Add createnewaccount command
|
||||
- Add renameaccount command
|
||||
- Add searchrawtransactions command
|
||||
- Add importaddress command
|
||||
- Add importpubkey command
|
||||
- showblock utility changes:
|
||||
- Remove utility in favor of the RPC getblock method
|
||||
- Notable developer-related package changes:
|
||||
- Many of the core packages have been relocated into the btcd repository
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/214)
|
||||
- A new version of the btcjson package that has been completely
|
||||
redesigned from the ground up based based upon how the project has
|
||||
evolved and lessons learned while using it since it was first written
|
||||
is now available in the btcjson/v2/btcjson directory
|
||||
- This will ultimately replace the current version so anyone making
|
||||
use of this package will need to update their code accordingly
|
||||
- The btcec package now provides better facilities for working directly
|
||||
with its public and private keys without having to mix elements from
|
||||
the ecdsa package
|
||||
- Update the script builder to ensure all rules specified by BIP0062 are
|
||||
adhered to when creating scripts
|
||||
- The blockchain package now provides a MedianTimeSource interface and
|
||||
concrete implementation for providing time samples from remote peers
|
||||
and using that data to calculate an offset against the local time
|
||||
- Misc changes:
|
||||
- Fix a slow memory leak due to tickers not being stopped
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/189)
|
||||
- Fix an issue where a mix of orphans and SPV clients could trigger a
|
||||
condition where peers would no longer be served
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/231)
|
||||
- The RPC username and password can now contain symbols which previously
|
||||
conflicted with special symbols used in URLs
|
||||
- Improve handling of obtaining random nonces to prevent cases where it
|
||||
could error when not enough entropy was available
|
||||
- Improve handling of home directory creation errors such as in the case
|
||||
of unmounted symlinks (https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/193)
|
||||
- Improve the error reporting for rejected transactions to include the
|
||||
inputs which are missing and/or being double spent
|
||||
- Update sample config file with new options and correct a comment
|
||||
regarding the fact the RPC server only listens on localhost by default
|
||||
(https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/218)
|
||||
- Update the continuous integration builds to run several tools which
|
||||
help keep code quality high
|
||||
- Significant amount of internal code cleanup and improvements
|
||||
- Other minor internal optimizations
