The github markdown interpreter has been changed such that it no longer
allows spaces in between the brackets and parenthesis of links and now
requires a newline in between anchors and other formatting. This
updates all of the markdown files accordingly.
While here, it also corrects a couple of inconsistencies in some of the
README.md files.
Now that glide is used for version management and a specific commit of
the upstream repository can be locked it is no longer necessary to
maintain a fork of the package specifically to keep a stable dependency.
While here, update the glide dependency for btcutil as well since it was
switched to use the upstream path as well.
This simplifies the code based on the recommendations of the gosimple
lint tool.
Also, it increases the deadline for the linters to run to 10 minutes and
reduces the number of threads that is uses. This is being done because
the Travis environment has become increasingly slower and it also seems
to be hampered by too many threads running concurrently.
ScriptVerifyNullFail defines that signatures must be empty if a
CHECKSIG or CHECKMULTISIG operation fails.
This commit also enables ScriptVerifyNullFail at the mempool policy
level.
This updates the data driven transaction script tests to use the most
recent format and test data as implemented by Core so the test data can
more easily be updated and help prove cross-compatibility correctness.
In particular, the new format combines the previously separate valid and
invalid test data files into a single file and adds a field for the
expected result. This is a nice improvement since it means tests can
now ensure script failures are due to a specific expected reason as
opposed to only generically detecting failure as the previous format
required.
The btcd script engine typically returns more fine grained errors than
the test data expects, so the test adapter handles this by allowing
expected errors in the test data to be mapped to multiple txscript
errors.
It should also be noted that the tests related to segwit have been
stripped from the data since the segwit PR has not landed in master yet,
however the test adapter does recognize the new ability for optional
segwit data to be supplied, though it will need to properly construct
the transaction using that data when the time comes.
This converts the majority of script errors from generic errors created
via errors.New and fmt.Errorf to use a concrete type that implements the
error interface with an error code and description.
This allows callers to programmatically detect the type of error via
type assertions and an error code while still allowing the errors to
provide more context.
For example, instead of just having an error the reads "disabled opcode"
as would happen prior to these changes when a disabled opcode is
encountered, the error will now read "attempt to execute disabled opcode
OP_FOO".
While it was previously possible to programmatically detect many errors
due to them being exported, they provided no additional context and
there were also various instances that were just returning errors
created on the spot which callers could not reliably detect without
resorting to looking at the actual error message, which is nearly always
bad practice.
Also, while here, export the MaxStackSize and MaxScriptSize constants
since they can be useful for consumers of the package and perform some
minor cleanup of some of the tests.
The CSV consensus rules dictate that the opcode fails when the
transaction version is not at least version 2, however that only applies
if the disable flag is not set in the sequence.
This is not an issue at the current time because we do not yet enforce
CSV at a consensus level, however, I noticed this discrepancy when doing
a thorough audit of the CSV paths due to the ongoing work to add full
consensus-enforced CSV support.
As a result, this must be merged prior to enabling consensus enforcement
for CSV or it would open up the potential for a hard fork.
This modifies the NewMsgTx function to accept the transaction version as
a parameter and updates all callers.
The reason for this change is so the transaction version can be bumped
in wire without breaking existing tests and to provide the caller with
the flexibility to create the specific transaction version they desire.
This modifies the recently-added NullDataScript function in several
ways in an effort to make them more consistent with the tests in the
rest of the code base and improve/correct the logic:
- Use the hexToBytes and mustParseShortForm functions
- Consistently format the test errors
- Replace the valid bool flag with an expected error and test against it
- Ensure the returned script type is the expected type in all cases
This adds a new function named NullDataScript to the txscript package that returns a provably-pruneable OP_RETURN script with the provided data. The function will return an error if the provided data is larger than the maximum allowed length for a nulldata script to be be considered standard.
Putting the test code in the same package makes it easier for forks
since they don't have to change the import paths as much and it also
gets rid of the need for internal_test.go to bridge.
Also, do some light cleanup on a few tests while here.
This corrects the isNullData standard transaction type test to work
properly with canonically-encoded data pushes. In particular, single
byte data pushes that are small integers (0-16) are converted to the
equivalent numeric opcodes when canonically encoded and the code failed
to detect them properly.
It also adds several tests to ensure that both canonical and
non-canonical nulldata scripts are recognized properly and modifies the
test failure print to include the script that failed.
This does not affect consensus since it is just a standardness check.
This exposes a new function on the ScriptBuilder type named AddOps that
allows multiple opcodes to be added via a single call and adds tests to
exercise the new function.
Finally, it updates a couple of places in the signing code that were
abusing the interface by setting its private script directly to use the
new public function instead.
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
This changes the script template parsing function to use a pointer into
the constant global opcode array for parsed opcodes as opposed to making
a copy of the opcode entries which causes unnecessary allocations.
Profiling showed that after roughly 48 hours of operation, this
copy was the culprit of 207 million unnecessary allocations.
Profiles discovered that lookups into the signature cache included an
expensive comparison to the stored `sigInfo` struct. This lookup had the
potential to be more expensive than directly verifying the signature
itself!
In addition, evictions were rather expensive because they involved
reading from /dev/urandom, or equivalent, for each eviction once the
signature cache was full as well as potentially iterating over every
item in the cache in the worst-case.
To remedy this poor performance several changes have been made:
* Change the lookup key to the fixed sized 32-byte signature hash
* Perform a full equality check only if there is a cache hit which
results in a significant speed up for both insertions and existence
checks
* Override entries in the case of a colliding hash on insert Add an
* .IsEqual() method to the Signature and PublicKey types in the
btcec package to facilitate easy equivalence testing
* Allocate the signature cache map with the max number of entries in
order to avoid unnecessary map re-sizes/allocations
* Optimize evictions from the signature cache Delete the first entry
* seen which is safe from manipulation due to
the pre image resistance of the hash function
* Double the default maximum number of entries within the signature
cache due to the reduction in the size of a cache entry
* With this eviction scheme, removals are effectively O(1)
Fixes#575.
This modifies the conversion of the output index from the JSON-based
test data for valid and invalid transactions as well as the signature
hash type for signature hash tests to first convert to a signed int and
then to an unsigned int. This is necessary because the result of a
direct conversion of a float to an unsigned int is implementation
dependent and doesn't result in the expected value on all platforms.
Also, while here, change the function names in the error prints to match
the actual names.
Fixes#600.
500 tests with various transactions and scripts, verifying that
calcSignatureHash generates the expected hash in each case.
This requires changing SigHashType to uint32; that won't affect the
standard use-cases, but will make calcSignatureHash behave more like the
Core counterpart for non-standard SigHashType settings, like those in
some of these tests.
First, it removes the documentation section from all the README.md files
and instead puts a web-based godoc badge and link at the top with the
other badges. This is being done since the local godoc tool no longer
ships with Go by default, so the instructions no longer work without
first installing godoc. Due to this, pretty much everyone uses the
web-based godoc these days anyways. Anyone who has manually installed
godoc won't need instructions.
Second, it makes sure the ISC license badge is at the top with the other
badges and removes the textual reference in the overview section.
Finally, it's modifies the Installation section to Installation and
Updating and adds a '-u' to the 'go get' command since it works for both
and thus is simpler.
isMultiSig was not verifying the number of pubkeys specified matched
the number of pubkeys provided. This caused certain non-standard
scripts to be considered multisig scripts.
However, the script still would have failed during execution.
NOTE: This only affects whether or not the script is considered
standard and does NOT affect consensus.
Also, add a test for this check.

We've already been generating lowS sigs for quite a while. This removes
the malleability vector.
This mimics Bitcoin Core commit 49dd5c629df0a08cf3b1ea8085c03312d1a81696
Introduce an ECDSA signature verification into btcd in order to
mitigate a certain DoS attack and as a performance optimization.
The benefits of SigCache are two fold. Firstly, usage of SigCache
mitigates a DoS attack wherein an attacker causes a victim's client to
hang due to worst-case behavior triggered while processing attacker
crafted invalid transactions. A detailed description of the mitigated
DoS attack can be found here: https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2013/01/23/fixed-bitcoin-vulnerability-explanation-why-the-signature-cache-is-a-dos-protection/
Secondly, usage of the SigCache introduces a signature verification
optimization which speeds up the validation of transactions within a
block, if they've already been seen and verified within the mempool.
The server itself manages the sigCache instance. The blockManager and
txMempool respectively now receive pointers to the created sigCache
instance. All read (sig triplet existence) operations on the sigCache
will not block unless a separate goroutine is adding an entry (writing)
to the sigCache. GetBlockTemplate generation now also utilizes the
sigCache in order to avoid unnecessarily double checking signatures
when generating a template after previously accepting a txn to the
mempool. Consequently, the CPU miner now also employs the same
optimization.
The maximum number of entries for the sigCache has been introduced as a
config parameter in order to allow users to configure the amount of
memory consumed by this new additional caching.
While current existing numeric opcodes are limited to 4 bytes, new
opcodes may need different limits.
This mimics Bitcoin Core commit 99088d60d8a7747c6d1a7fd5d8cd388be1b3e138
This commit modifies the DisasmString function to use a bytes buffer for
constructing the disassembled string instead of naive string
concatenation. This makes a huge difference when disassembling scripts
with large numbers of opcodes.
IsUnspendable takes a public key script and returns whether it is
spendable.
Additionally, hook this into the mempool isDust function, since
unspendable outputs can't be spent.
This mimics Bitcoin Core commit 0aad1f13b2430165062bf9436036c1222a8724da
