This cleans up the test in TestCalcSequenceLock in the following ways:
- Use calculated values instead of magic value so it is easier to update
the tests as needed
- Make tests match the comments
- Change comments to be more consistent and fix some grammar errors
- Set mempool flag for unconfirmed tx tests since they are intended to
mimic transactions in the mempool
This commit modifies the existing block validation logic to examine the
current version bits state of the CSV soft-fork, enforcing the new
validation rules (BIPs 68, 112, and 113) accordingly based on the
current `ThesholdState`.
This contains a bit of cleanup and additional logic to improve the
recently-added ability to specify additional checkpoints via the
--addcheckpoint option.
In particular:
- Improve error messages in the checkpoint parsing
- Correct the mergeCheckpoints function to weed out duplicate height
checkpoints while using the most-recently provided one as described by
its comment
- Add an assertion to blockchain.New that the provided checkpoints are
sorted as required
- Keep comments to 80 columns and use two spaces after periods in them to
be consistent with the rest of the code base
- Make the entry in doc.go match the actual btcd -h output
This adds a full-blown testing infrastructure in order to test consensus
validation rules. It is built around the idea of dynamically generating
full blocks that target specific rules linked together to form a block
chain. In order to properly test the rules, each test instance starts
with a valid block that is then modified in the specific way needed to
test a specific rule.
Blocks which exercise following rules have been added for this initial
version. These tests were largely ported from the original Java-based
'official' block acceptance tests as well as some additional tests
available in the Core python port. It is expected that further tests
can be added over time as consensus rules change.
* Enough valid blocks to have a stable base of mature coinbases to spend
for futher tests
* Basic forking and chain reorganization
* Double spends on forks
* Too much proof-of-work coinbase (extending main chain, in block that
forces a reorg, and in a valid fork)
* Max and too many signature operations via various combinations of
OP_CHECKSIG, OP_MULTISIG, OP_CHECKSIGVERIFY, and OP_MULTISIGVERIFY
* Too many and max signature operations with offending sigop after
invalid data push
* Max and too many signature operations via pay-to-script-hash redeem
scripts
* Attempt to spend tx created on a different fork
* Attempt to spend immature coinbase (on main chain and fork)
* Max size block and block that exceeds the max size
* Children of rejected blocks are either orphans or rejected
* Coinbase script too small and too large
* Max length coinbase script
* Attempt to spend tx in blocks that failed to connect
* Valid non-coinbase tx in place of coinbase
* Block with no transactions
* Invalid proof-of-work
* Block with a timestamp too far in the future
* Invalid merkle root
* Invalid proof-of-work limit (bits header field)
* Negative proof-of-work limit (bits header field)
* Two coinbase transactions
* Duplicate transactions
* Spend from transaction that does not exist
* Timestamp exactly at and one second after the median time
* Blocks with same hash via merkle root tricks
* Spend from transaction index that is out of range
* Transaction that spends more that its inputs provide
* Transaction with same hash as an existing tx that has not been
fully spent (BIP0030)
* Non-final coinbase and non-coinbase txns
* Max size block with canonical encoding which exceeds max size with
non-canonical encoding
* Spend from transaction earlier in same block
* Spend from transaction later in same block
* Double spend transaction from earlier in same block
* Coinbase that pays more than subsidy + fees
* Coinbase that includes subsidy + fees
* Invalid opcode in dead execution path
* Reorganization of txns with OP_RETURN outputs
* Spend of an OP_RETURN output
* Transaction with multiple OP_RETURN outputs
* Large max-sized block reorganization test (disabled by default since
it takes a long time and a lot of memory to run)
Finally, the README.md files in the main and docs directories have been
updated to reflect the use of the new testing framework.
This modifies the blockchain.ProcessBlock function to return an
additional boolean as the first parameter which indicates whether or not
the block ended up on the main chain.
This is primarily useful for upcoming test code that needs to be able to
tell the difference between a block accepted to a side chain and a block
that either extends the main chain or causes a reorganize that causes it
to become the main chain. However, it is also useful for the addblock
utility since it allows a better error in the case a file with out of
order blocks is provided.
This moves several of the chain constants to the Params struct in the
chaincfg package which is intended for that purpose. This is mostly a
backport of the same modifications made in Decred along with a few
additional things cleaned up.
The following is an overview of the changes:
- Comment all fields in the Params struct definition
- Add locals to BlockChain instance for the calculated values based on
the provided chain params
- Rename the following param fields:
- SubsidyHalvingInterval -> SubsidyReductionInterval
- ResetMinDifficulty -> ReduceMinDifficulty
- Add new Param fields:
- CoinbaseMaturity
- TargetTimePerBlock
- TargetTimespan
- BlocksPerRetarget
- RetargetAdjustmentFactor
- MinDiffReductionTime
This is mostly a backport of some of the same modifications made in
Decred along with a few additional things cleaned up. In particular,
this updates the code to make use of the new chainhash package.
Also, since this required API changes anyways and the hash algorithm is
no longer tied specifically to SHA, all other functions throughout the
code base which had "Sha" in their name have been changed to Hash so
they are not incorrectly implying the hash algorithm.
The following is an overview of the changes:
- Remove the wire.ShaHash type
- Update all references to wire.ShaHash to the new chainhash.Hash type
- Rename the following functions and update all references:
- wire.BlockHeader.BlockSha -> BlockHash
- wire.MsgBlock.BlockSha -> BlockHash
- wire.MsgBlock.TxShas -> TxHashes
- wire.MsgTx.TxSha -> TxHash
- blockchain.ShaHashToBig -> HashToBig
- peer.ShaFunc -> peer.HashFunc
- Rename all variables that included sha in their name to include hash
instead
- Update for function name changes in other dependent packages such as
btcutil
- Update copyright dates on all modified files
- Update glide.lock file to use the required version of btcutil
Rather than making the caller to pass in the median time source on
ProcessBlock and IsCurrent, modify the Config struct to include the
median time source and associate it with the chain instance when it is
created.
This is being done because both the ProcessBlock and IsCurrent functions
require access to the blockchain state already, it is a little bit safer
to ensure the time source matches the chain instance state, it
simplifies the caller logic, and it also allows its use within the logic
of the blockchain package itself which will be required by upcoming
rule change warning logic that is part of BIP9.
This commit contains the entire btcchain repository along with several
changes needed to move all of the files into the blockchain directory in
order to prepare it for merging. This does NOT update btcd or any of the
other packages to use the new location as that will be done separately.
- All import paths in the old btcchain test files have been changed to
the new location
- All references to btcchain as the package name have been changed to
blockchain
