- Remove all redundant opcode tests in favor of the JSON-based tests
in the data directory.
- Remove duplicate stack nip test
- Add new tests to data/script_invalid.json to exercise additional
negative error paths
- Remove old unneeded pubkey trace code from opcodeCheckSig
- Simplify and improve the disassembly print function
- Add new tests to directly test all individual opcode disassembly
- Add new tests to directly test opcode disabled function which does not
get invoked during ordinary execution
- Improve test coverage of opcode.go
This commit moves the opcode execution logic from the opcode type to the
engine type because execution of an opcode modifies the engine state
(primarily the main and alternate data stacks) as opposed to the state
of the opcode. Making the engine the receiver more clearly indicates
this fact.
This commit very slightly optimizes the cryptographic hashing performed
by the script opcodes by calling the hash sum routines directly (for
those that support it) rather than allocating a new generic hash.Hash
hasher instance for them.
This commit improves the way the conditional execution stack is handled in
a few ways.
First, the current execution state is now pushed onto the end of the slice
rather than the front of it. This has been done because it results in
fewer allocations and is therefore more efficient.
Second, the need for allocating and setting an initial true in the
conditional stack has been eliminated. The vast majority of scripts don't
contain any conditionals, so there is no reason to allocate a slice when
it isn't needed.
Third, a new function has been added to the engine to determine if the
current conditional branch is executing named isBranchExecuting which
handles the fact the conditional execution stack can now be empty and
improves the readability of the code.
Finally, it removes a couple of TODOs which I have verified do not apply.
This commit exports a new map named OpcodeByName which can be used to
lookup an opcode value given a human-readable opcode name.
It also modifies the test function which does short form parsing to use
the new map instead of the internal array.
Closes#267.
This commit converts the opcode map to an array to improve performance.
Benchmark of executing a standard p2pk transaction:
New: BenchmarkExecute 2000 784349 ns/op
Old: BenchmarkExecute 2000 792600 ns/op
The time is dominated by the signature checking as expected, however there
is still an increase in speed.
This commit modifies the definition of the opcodes to their hex
counterparts rather than decimal since it is far more common to see
scripts in hex. This makes it easier when manually looking at script
dumps to correlate opcodes. However, since there are also cases where it
is useful to see the decimal value of the opcode, the decimal value has
been left as a comment. Obviously converting the numbers is trivial, but
it is handy when looking at the opcode definitions to already have it
there.
In addition, it syncs the opcodes with the latest Bitcoin Core internal
opcodes for completeness and modifies the tests accordingly.
Rather than storing a separate bool for whether or not each flag is set in
every script engine instance, store the flags and check if the relevant
flag is set from each specific location.
This reduces the memory needed by each script engine instance and means
future flags will not require new fields.
This commit renames the Script type to Engine to better reflect its
purpose. It also renames the NewScript function to NewEngine to match.
This is being done because name Script for the engine is confusing since
it implies it is an actual script rather than the execution environment
for the script. It also paves the way for eventually supplying a
ParsedScript type which will be less likely to be confused with the
execution environment.
While moving the code, some additional variable names and comments have
been updated to better match the style used throughout the rest of the
code base. In addition, an attempt has been made to use consistent naming
of the engine as 'vm' instead of using different variables names as it was
previously.
Finally, the relevant engine code has been moved into a new file named
engine.go and related tests moved to engine_test.go.
The ScriptVerifyMinimalData enforces that all push operations use the
minimal data push required. This is part of BIP0062.
This commit mimics Bitcoin Core commit
698c6abb25c1fbbc7fa4ba46b60e9f17d97332ef
Remove ScriptCanonicalSignatures and use the new
ScriptVerifyDERSignatures flag. The ScriptVerifyDERSignatures
flag accomplishes the same functionality.
This commit adds two new verification flags to txscript named
ScriptVerifyStrictEncoding and ScriptVerifyDerSignatures.
The ScriptVerifyStrictEncoding flag enforces signature scripts
and public keys to follow the strict encoding requirements.
The ScriptVerifyDerSignatures flag enforces signature scripts
to follow the strict encoding requirements.
These flags mimic Bitcoin Core's SCRIPT_VERIFY_STRICTENC and
SCRIPT_VERIFY_DERSIG flags and brings the Bitcoin Core test scripts up
to date.
This commit corrects a case in the OP_CHECKMULTISIG handling where it was
possible to improperly validate a transaction that had a combination of
valid and malformed signatures.
It also adds a new test to ensure this case is properly handled and nukes
a superfluous comment.
Fixes#293.
This commit contains the entire btcscript repository along with several
changes needed to move all of the files into the txscript 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 btcscript test files have been changed to the
new location
- All references to btcscript as the package name have been chagned to
txscript
This is ongoing work toward #214.
