We already had in place the blockSizeAcceptLimit as the limit
on messages, which is now the only limit.
In practice this means when the operator sets the maximum mining
size that we adjust the blockSizeAcceptLimit, if they only set the
blockSizeAcceptLimit, we use that (plus a margin) to limit messages
both on the p2p layer and on the RPC (JSON) layer we change the
limit to be twice the blockSizeAcceptLimit (copied those numbers
from BCHN).
This is a feature request following the fact that some sysops use a
symlink for the unspent dir and don't want the reindex to delete the
symlink itself.
and update the definitions of the Mainnet, Testnet (v3), and Regtest chain params accordingly. The heights for all 3 chains were taken by verifying the values in both BU and BCHN code bases.
NOTE: For TestNet v3, there is a 1 block discrepancy between BU (1378461) and BCHN (1378460) for the height of the May 2020 hardfork. I arbitrarily selected the value from BCHN, I'm not sure which is correct.
To make sure that a pair of really large transactions being used
to create a DSP doesn't cause a blocking thread, this runs a
benchmark on a pair of transactions with 300 inputs each, causing
45k comparisons to be made.
On my laptop this results in 0.6 msecs for this creation of the DSP.
* API docs
* Fix possible race condition in addOrphan()
* Reject proofs that violate simple constraints
* clear up possible confusing API (first/double spender getters).
The mempool search now shares its serialization code with the blockchain
transaction fetcher, allowing all the filtering and include flags to work
here too.
This also fixes several bugs and reverts the mempool API change.
Additionally I return the FirstSeenTime for each mempool entry.
There is a slight API breakage in the LiveTransactions service, which as
far as I know is still unused outside of Flowee.
These enum values changed:
Api::LiveTransactions::
Transaction 20 => 25
UnspentState 23 => 26
OutputScript 24 => 23
The reason for this change is to have the Blockchain namespace in
sync with the LiveTransactions namespace for similar features.
If we are past at least 2000 blocks of the items stored in a data file we
can delete the revert file and save a couple hundred megabytes of
on-disk storage for every blk file.
We seem to be having a LOT of p2sh double spends on mainnet today,
which caused confusion with people reading the logs.
This clarifies that the current version only supports p2pkh and we
need more research to support others too.
Small refactor; move the partition check away from main and the obsolete
global variables we used to use, instead now just add it to the DB which
owns the data it works on.
This fixes the bug that in various cases we'd incorrectly get a warning
about no blocks being found in the last N hours.
