Removing from the bottom of a stack (nipN(depth)) would leak the first
entry in the array by slicing [1:], leaving array[0] dangling an
inaccessible (but unable to be freed until the whole slice is gone). We
left it like this for a while, but best not to leak the memory. Happens
rarely so the performance hit shouldn't matter that much. Do the same
thing for condstack.
When we do append loops, make an educated guess as to the size and make an array
with that capacity to avoid extra copying.
Doesn't affect the speed of the tests, over 4 runs the difference was lost in
the noise.
This commit modifies the code to no longer require a protocol version. It
does this by making use of the new Serialize function in btcwire.
Unfortuantely this does entail a public API change which I generally don't
like to do, but eliminating the usage of the protocol version throughout
the codebase was important enough to warrant the change.
We do this by allowing the parser to return the list of parsed objects
(it is an internal only api anyway) and then we use this in the sigops
counting and ignore the error. This change due to bitcoind
compatability.
btcscript contains an amount of debug logging that is very useful to
have. We have agreed that testing this isn't realy practical or indeed
really useful and thus is rather unlikely to grow test coverage any time
soon.
To be usd for validation. Most of the codepaths teste, a few tests
missing for cases needed tests in the validation codepaths too. To be
worked on in tree.
The only time we need to zero out scripts is for calcScriptHash which operates
on a deep copy anyway. This should make the tx passed to us unmodified now.
We were counting the number of push ops instead of the number of non
push ops. Add tests that found this (checking tha the max operations
check fires).
Use this to test the pubkey paths in checksig which return btcec errors
which we don't define. all of the other active tests know the return
code we need.
Use it to reduce code dpulication in the bip16 case.
In addition we export it so that that a user could run:
for !done && err == nil {
done, err = s.Step()
}
err = s.CheckErrorCondition()
manually instead of having to run Execute().
