Shutting down geth prints hundreds of annoying error messages in some
cases. The errors appear because the Stop method of eth.ProtocolManager,
miner.Miner and core.TxPool is asynchronous. Left over peer sessions
generate events which are processed after Stop even though the database
has already been closed.
The fix is to make Stop synchronous using sync.WaitGroup.
For eth.ProtocolManager, in order to make use of WaitGroup safe, we need
a way to stop new peer sessions from being added while waiting on the
WaitGroup. The eth protocol Run function now selects on a signaling
channel and adds to the WaitGroup only if ProtocolManager is not
shutting down.
For miner.worker and core.TxPool the number of goroutines is static,
WaitGroup can be used in the usual way without additional
synchronisation.
- Manager.Accounts no longer returns an error.
- Manager methods take Account instead of common.Address.
- All uses of Account with unkeyed fields are converted.
rpc: be less restrictive on the request id
rpc: improved documentation
console: upgrade web3.js to version 0.16.0
rpc: cache http connections
rpc: rename wsDomains parameter to wsOrigins
Added chain configuration options and write out during genesis database
insertion. If no "config" was found, nothing is written to the database.
Configurations are written on a per genesis base. This means
that any chain (which is identified by it's genesis hash) can have their
own chain settings.
This PR fixes a regression of the RPC where the default gas price that
was being used for transaction wasn't properly using the GPO. This PR
adds the GPO back to suggest gas prices rather than the hardcoded
default of 10000000000000.
Closes#2194
This removes the burden on a single object to take care of all
validation and state processing. Now instead the validation is done by
the `core.BlockValidator` (`types.Validator`) that takes care of both
header and uncle validation through the `ValidateBlock` method and state
validation through the `ValidateState` method. The state processing is
done by a new object `core.StateProcessor` (`types.Processor`) and
accepts a new state as input and uses that to process the given block's
transactions (and uncles for rewords) to calculate the state root for
the next block (P_n + 1).

* exit processed even with whitespace around
* all whitespace lines (not only empty ones) are ignored

common/docserver: catch http errors from response
fix rpc/api tests
common/natspec: fix end to end test (skipped because takes 8s)
registrar: fix major regression:
* deploy registrars on frontier
* register HashsReg and UrlHint in GlobalRegistrar.
* set all 3 contract addresses in code

Log filtering is now using a MIPmap like approach where addresses of
logs are added to a mapped bloom bin. The current levels for the MIP are
in ranges of 1.000.000, 500.000, 100.000, 50.000, 1.000. Logs are
therefor filtered in batches of 1.000.
Dev mode enabled some debugging flags such as:
* VM debugging mode
* Simpler proof of work
* Whisper enabled by default
* Datadir to a tmp datadir
* Maxpeers set to 0
* Gas price of 0
* Random listen port
Fixed database merge strategy to use the correct database. Due to a copy
paste fail when doing type evaluation the same database was being
iterated (chain), all others were ignored.
Removed state prefixing because {H(code): code} is stored in the same
database as the rest of the state.
* resolver -> common/registrar
* global registrar name registry interface
* add Call to resolver backend interface
* the hashReg and UrlHing contracts now initialised from global registry
* initialization of contracts uniform
* improve errors and more econsistent method names
* common/registrar/ethreg: versioned registrar
* integrate new naming and registrar in natspec
* js console api: setGlobalRegistrar, setHashReg, setUrlHint
* js test TestContract uses mining - tests fixed all pass
* eth/backend: allow PoW test mode (small ethash DAG)
* console jsre refers to resolver.abi/addr,
* cmd/geth/contracts.go moved to common/registrar
* Miners do now verify their own header, not their state.
* Changed old putTx and putReceipts to be exported
* Moved writing of transactions and receipts out of the block processer
in to the chain manager. Closes#1386
* Miner post ChainHeadEvent & ChainEvent. Closes#1388
* multiple passwords allowed in password file
* split on "\n", sideeffect: chop trailing slashes. fixes common mistake <(echo 'pass')
* remove accounts.Primary method
* do not fall back to primary account for mining
You can set the nonce of the block with `--genesisnonce`. When the
genesis nonce changes and it doesn't match with the first block in your
database it will fail. A new `datadir` must be given if the nonce of the
genesis block changes.
Removed the managed tx state from the chain manager to the transaction
pool where it's much easier to keep track of nonces (and manage them).
The transaction pool now also uses the queue and pending txs differently
where queued txs are now moved over to the pending queue (i.e. txs ready
for processing and propagation).
- backend: AutoDAG bool flag passed from cli/eth.Config to ethereum, autoDAG loop started if true
- backend: autoDAG loop start/stop, remove previous DAG
- cli: AutoDAG bool flag, off by default, but automatically ON if mining
- admin jsre: add startAutoDAG stopAutoDAG and makeDAG in miner section
- switch on/off DAG autogeneration when miner started/stopped on console
ChainManager now uses a parallel approach to block processing where all
nonces are checked seperatly from the block processing process. This
speeds up the process by about 3 times on my i7
* core: Added GasPriceChange event
* eth: When one of the DB flush methods error a fatal error log message
is given. Hopefully this will prevent corrupted databases from
occuring.
* miner: remove transactions with low gas price. Closes#906, #903
The downloader is no longer responsible for processing blocks. The
eth-protocol handler now takes care of this instead.
Added graceful shutdown during block processing. Closes#846
This commit changes the discovery protocol to use the new "v4" endpoint
format, which allows for separate UDP and TCP ports and makes it
possible to discover the UDP address after NAT.
Transactions are now propagated to peers from which we have not yet
received the transaction. This will significantly reduce the chatter on
the network.
Moved new mined block handler to the protocol handler and moved
transaction handling to protocol handler.
* Improved block propagation by sending blocks only to peers to which, as
far as we know, the peer does not know about.
* Made sub protocol its own manager
* SubProtocol now contains the p2p.Protocol which is used instead of
a function-returning-protocol thing.
The transaction pool will now some easily be able to pre determine the
validity of a transaction by checking the following:
* Account existst
* gas limit higher than the instrinsic gas
* enough funds to pay upfront costs
* nonce check
- logjson flag remove logformat flag
- passed to eth Config
- logsystem not a field of Ethereum
- LogSystem does not need to expose GetLogLevel/SetLogLevel
- message struct just implements more generic LogMsg interface
- LogMsg is a fmt.Stringer with Level()
- jsonMsg ([]byte) implements LogMsg
- remove "raw" systems
- move level logic inside StdLogSystem
- logsystems only print their kind of msg: jsonLogSystem prints jsonMsg, StdLogSystem prints stdMsg
- update blockpool td by subscribing to ChainHeadEvent
- if ahead of best peer, demote it
- addPeer now take own td as current td
- removePeer now take own td as current td
- add relevant tests to peers_test
- eth: backend now calls blockpool with eth.eventMux and chainManager.Td
- protocolversion, networkid global int flags to cli and mist
- fix bug with protocolversion check using wrong db
- log protocolversion & networkid in backend
- NodeInfo, PeerInfo types, PeersInfo(), NodeInfo() in eth/backend to support node admin IF
- start net only if MaxPeers > 0, close extraDb in Stop()
- defer s.extraDb.Close()
This avoids having to query the coinbase when creating the miner, which
in turn eliminates the dreaded startup error when no accounts are set
up. Later, this will also allow us to simply restart the miner when the
user picks a different coinbase.
This causes a lot of changes in other packages. These are included in
this commit because they're impossible to separate.
