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.
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.
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.
- Move reference tests to test package since they are intended to
exercise the engine as callers would
- Improve the short form script parsing to allow additional opcodes:
DATA_#, OP_#, FALSE, TRUE
- Make use of a function to decode hex strings rather than manually
defining byte slices
- Update the tests to make use of the short form script parsing logic
rather than manually defining byte slices
- Consistently replace all []byte{} and [][]byte{} with nil
- Define tests only used in a specific function inside that func
- Move invalid flag combination test to engine_test since that is what
it is testing
- Remove all redundant script tests in favor of the JSON-based tests in
the data directory.
- Move several functions from internal_test.go to the test files
associated with what the tests are checking
This commit moves all code related to standard scripts into a separate
file named standard.go as well as the associated tests into
standard_test.go. Since the code in address.go and address_test.go is
only related to standard scripts, it has been combined into the new
files and the old files deleted.
The intent here is to make it clear that the code in standard.go is not
related to consensus.
