The disk syncer now maintains its own countdown timer, creating a new
timer only when necessary (when there is no timer running, and
something is scheduled to be written). When the timer expires, the
select loop begins selecting on a grab of the account manager's binary
semaphore, and if read, performs the sync and nils the select channel
to prevent a future grab until a new timer has expired.
Tested with a race-enabled build on Windows. No lockups or races
related to the disk syncing experienced with constant client requests
and incoming btcd notifications, and scheduled writes run as expected
once the countdown timer expires, locking out all server request and
notifiation handling.
Use the new confirmed function to test whether unspent transaction
outputs are confirmed enough to be used as a possible transaction
inputs instead of the old check (which was incorrect and required an
extra confirmation).
Modified the test to require one confirmation instead of none so the
confirmed enough check actually occurs.
The flag marking chained addresses as needing private keys be
generated on the next wallet unlock was not being correctly unset
after creating and encrypting the private key. After
serializing/deserializing the wallet, on next unlock, recreating
missing private keys would begin too early in the chain and fail due
to trying to encrypt an already encrypted address.
This change correctly unsets the flag and bumps the version so a
special case can be created for ignoring duplicate encryption attempts
when reading an old wallet file. Tests have also been added to the
chained pubkey test to test for this error case.
Previous to this commit, all change addresses were indistinguishable
from manually requested addresses. This adds a new function to return
the new address, setting a new change flag to true, and return the
change status with the AddressInfo.
This is needed as part of resolving #41 (getrawchangeaddress).
This change removes the three separate mutexes which used to lock an
account's wallet, tx store, and utxo store. Accounts no longer
contain any locking mechanism and rely on go's other synchronization
constructs (goroutines and channels) for correct access.
All accounts are now managed as a collection through the new
AccountManager, rather than the old AccountStore. AccountManager runs
as its own goroutine to provide access to accounts.
RPC requests are now queued for handling, being denied if the queue
buffer is exhausted. Notifications are also queued (instead of being
sent from their own goroutine after being received, in which order is
undefined), however, notifications are never dropped and will
potentially grow a queue of infinite size if unhandled.
Fixes several hangs cased by incorrect locking, by removing the
locking. Instead, a single goroutine manages all file writes.
The old account 'dirty' boolean flags have been removed. Instead,
anytime an account structure is modified, the portion that was
modified (wallet, tx store, or utxo store) must be scheduled to be
written.
This commit fixes two issues in the writeDirtyToDisk function:
First, closing the temporary files is now done using a defer, so they
are always closed.
Second, the various account mutexs are no longer unlocked using a
defer, preventing more than one from being held at once and causing a
deadlock caused by incorrect locking order.
Boolean options cannot be unset from a default true value on the
command line, so invert the allowfree option, renaming it
disallowfree, so attaching fees may always be forced by specifying
disallowfree = true in the configuration file, or --disallowfree on
the command line.
It may be desirable to never allow free transactions, even if the
calculated priority is high enough that a fee would not be required,
so this change adds a global configuration option to remove this check
and always attach a fee.
Now that it has been decided that all account wallets will share the
same passphrase, the walletlock and walletpassphrase RPC handlers now
go through the accountstore to lock or unlock all account wallets,
rather than only changing the default account.
This change checks for all wallet files in the account directory, and
then attempts to open each of the available accounts for those
wallets. Before, only the default account would ever be opened.
There were several places where various account files (wallet, tx, or
utxo stores) were being marked as dirty, and then not being either
immediately synced to disk or marked as a dirty account so they would
be scheduled to be synced to disk. This change adds Account functions
to mark as dirty and add the account to the map of scheduled accounts
so they won't be missed by the disk syncer goroutine.
This change allows for the use of watching-only wallets. Unlike
normal, "hot" wallets, watching-only wallets do not contain any
private keys, and can be used in situations where you want to keep one
wallet online to create new receiving addresses and watch for received
transactions, while keeping the hot wallet offline (possibly on an
air-gapped computer).
Two (websocket) extension RPC calls have been added:
First, exportwatchingwallet, which will export the current hot wallet
to a watching-only wallet, saving either to disk or returning the
base64-encoded wallet files to the caller.
Second, recoveraddresses, which is used to recover the next n
addresses from the address chain. This is used to "sync" a watching
wallet with the hot wallet, or vice versa.
This adds some missing bookkeeping which broke rescans for the root
addresses of newly created wallets (not wallets read from disk) by
marking all active addresses (which would be just the root address) as
belonging to the account with a some particular name.
While here, return an error to the caller rather than just logging the
error if the newly-created wallet cannot be immediatelly written to
disk.
The exported watching wallet would include all imported addresses'
chain indexes added to the chain index map. Imported addresses are
special as they do not belong to the address chain, and this would
cause issues when serializing the wallet.
This adds a new function, ExtendActiveAddresses, to extend the number
of active addresses, generated by the address chain, by any arbitrary
positive number. This will be used for recovering wallet addresses
from a wallet backup, as well as getting the next as many addresses as
required to keep a watching wallet in sync with an original wallet
with the private keys, or sync an original wallet with new addresses
generated by the watching wallet.
This change introduces a new function to export a wallet in memory to
a watching wallet. Watching wallets allow to watch for balance
changes and transactions to wallet addresses while only storing the
public parts of a wallet (no private keys). New addresses created by
the watching wallet will use pubkey address chaining and will allow to
receive funds to an indefinite number of new addresses, and create the
private keys for said addresses from the non-watching wallet later.
The actual exporting of a watching wallet to a file (triggered by an
RPC request) is not yet implemented.
While here, fix an issue found by new test code for the chained
address code which incorrectly set the starting index of addresses in
the chain needing private keys to be created.
Strings are immutable, so instead of copying as a new variable (like
how was needed when receiving byte slices), just pass the marshaled
JSON string to the notification processing code.
