The value will be different depending on whether we've reached
the first hard fork, which allows a larger size, or not.
This fixes transactions being rejected by the daemon on mainnet
where the first hard fork is not yet active.
This ensures this will be done without fail, as the error prone
matching of every return with a call to KILL_IOSERVICE leads to
hard to debug corruption when one is missing.
- only try to stop if actually started
- print number of threads before zeroing it
This fixes the suspiciously doubled "Mining has been stopped"
message on exit.
Blockchain hashes and key images are flushed, and blocks are
pulled anew from the daemon.
The console command is shortened to match bc_height.
This should make it a lot easier on users who are currently
told to remove this particular cache file but keep the keys
one, etc, etc.
Some tests assume the first output in a transaction goes to the recipient.
However, it can be the change. When it is, the recipient's keys will not
recognize this output. To fix this, we send all we have, to ensure there
is no change, and the first output goes to the recipient.
I'm not sure why this worked with Cryptonote. The tests sent 17 coins,
which seems way smaller than the first Bytecoin block reward, so there
would have been change too. Maybe outputs were not shuffled originally.
If the block reward was too high, the verification failed flag
was set, but the function continued. The code which was supposed
to trap this flag and return failure failed to trap it, and,
while the block was not added to the chain, the function would
return success.
The reason for avoiding returning when the block reward problem
was detected was to be able to return any transactions to the
pool if needed. This is now mooted by moving the transaction
return code to a separate function, which is now called at all
appropriate points, making the logic much simpler, and hopefully
correct now.
We also move the hard fork version check after the prev_id check,
as block which does not go on the top of the chain might not
have the expected version there, without being invalid just for
this reason.
Last, we trap the case where a block fails to be added due to
using already spent key images, to set the verification failed
flag.
This fixes some double spending tests.
This may or may not be unneeded in normal (non test) circumstances,
to be determined later. Keeping these for now may be slower, but safer.
Block reward may now be less than the full amount allowed.
This was breaking the bitflipping test.
We now keep track of whether a block which was accepted by the core
has a lower than allowed block reward, and allow this in the test.
The check was explicit in the original version, so it seems
safer to make it explicit here, especially as it is now done
implicitely in a different place, away from the original check.
Since connections from the ::connect method are now kept in
a deque to be able to cancel them on exit, this leaks both
memory and a file descriptor. Here, we clean those up after
30 seconds, to avoid this. 30 seconds is higher then the
5 second timeout used in the async code, so this should be
safe. However, this is an assumption which would break if
that async code was to start relying on longer timeouts.
When the boost ioservice is stopped, pending work notifications
will not happen. This includes deadline timers, which would
otherwise time out the now cancelled I/O operations. When this
happens just after starting a new connect operation, this can
leave that operations in a state where it won't receive either
the completion notification nor a timeout, causing a hang.
This is fixed by keeping a list of connections corresponding
to the connect operations, and cancelling them before stopping
the boost ioservice.
Note that the list of these connections can grow unbounded, as
they're never cleaned up. Cleaning them up would involve
working out which connections do not have any pending work,
and it's not quite clear yet how to go about this.
The version number passed to those data's serialize function
was always 0, not the wallet's version as I had expected.
A version number now exists for these structures so they're
versioned correctly.
This prevents the intermediate thread from exiting properly, as
fork creates a child process with only one thread, so any existing
data_logger thread will not be in the child. Since this thread
sets a flag the data_logger dtor blocks on, all children threads
will hang on exit.
They were trying to send too much monero, and thus failing.
The parameters were set in such a way that the (simple) output
gathering code could fulfill them for 4 block rewards for the
original Bytecoin emission, but that does not work with monero
so we need to use smaller values.
The current monero consensus uses 0.01 per kB fees, so use enough
for 2 kB transactions for now. It'll probably have to be either
bumped further or changed to calculate the proper fee.
The core tests use the blockchain, and reset it to be able
to add test data to it. This does not play nice with the
databases, since those will save that data without an explicit
save call.
We add a fakechain flag that the tests will set, which tells
the core and blockchain code to use a separate database, as
well as skip a few things like checkpoints and fixup, which
only make sense for real data.
This fixes coretests, which does not register daemon specific arguments,
but uses core, which uses those arguments. Also gets rid of an unwanted
dependency on daemon code from core.
This is a precaution for older Berkeley DB versions.
- smooth reports an issue running with 4.7:
DB_ENV->log_set_config: DB_LOG_IN_MEMORY: method not permitted
after handle's open method
- this works just fine with 5.3
- we do not use DB_LOG_IN_MEMORY, but we use DB_LOG_AUTO_REMOVE
- libdb docs say some flags must be set before open, and some
may be set at any time, but never say some must be set after
open
- moving the call to log_set_config before open works with 5.3
Therefore, it seems best to move the call before open.
This prevents an exception from existing the loop without
calling the exit handler, if one is defined.
The daemon defines one, which stops the p2p layer, and will
only exit once the p2p layer is shut down. This would cause
a hang upon an exception, as the input thread would have
exited and the daemon would wait forever with no console
user input.
Early DB versions did not store key images for inputs if the
transaction spending them had no outputs (ie, all fee). This
is not correct, as this would allow these outputs to be double
spent. This was fixed in 533acc30ed
a few months ago, but databases having synced blocks 2021612 and
685498 with a faulty version will be missing those key images
in the spent keys database. This code checks for this, and adds
those key images if they are missing.
Berkeley DB uses 1 based indices for RECNO databases, and the
implementation of BlockchainDB for Berkeley DB assumes 1 based
indices are passed to the API, whereas the LMDB one assumes
0 based indices. This is all internally consisteny, but since
the BDB code stores 1 based indices in the database, external
users have to be aware of this, as the indices will be off by
one depending on which DB is used.
^C while in manual refresh will cancel the refresh, since that's
often an annoying thing to have to wait for. Also, a manual refresh
command will interrupt any running background refresh and take
over, rather than wait for the background refresh to be done, and
look to be hanging.
