2021-10-20Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#13875: [doc] nChainTx needs to become a 64-bit earlier ↵W. J. van der Laan
due to SegWit ef72e9bd4124645fe2d00521a71c1c298d760225 doc: nChainTx needs to become a 64-bit earlier due to SegWit (Sjors Provoost) Pull request description: As of block 597,379 txcount is 460,596,047 (see `chainparams.cpp`), while `uint32` can handle up to 4,294,967,296. Pre segwit the [minimum transaction size](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Maximum_transaction_rate) was 166 bytes, so the worst case number of transactions per block was ~6000. As the original source comment for `unsigned int nChainTx` says, that should last until the year 2030. With SegWit the smallest possible transaction is 60 bytes (potentially increased to 65 with a future soft fork, see #15482), without a witness: ``` 4 bytes version 1 byte input count 36 bytes outpoint 1 byte scriptSigLen (0x00) 0 bytes scriptSig 4 bytes sequence 1 byte output count 8 bytes value 1 byte scriptPubKeyLen 1 byte scriptPubKey (OP_TRUE) 4 bytes locktime ``` That puts the maximum number of transactions per block at 16,666 so we might have to deal with this as early as a block 827,450 in early 2024. Given that it's a memory-only thing and we want to allow users many years to upgrade, I would suggest fixing this in v0.20 and back-porting it.

2021-09-15chain: add BLOCK_ASSUMED_VALID for use with assumeutxoJames O'Beirne
Instead of (ab)using the existing BLOCK_VALID_* flags to mark CBlockIndex entries which we haven't yet fully validated (but assume validity for use with UTXO snapshot loading), introduce a status flag that specifically marks an assumed-valid state. This state is then removed in RaiseValidity() when the block has actually been validated. This distinction will allow us to make the necessary changes to various parts of the system to facilitate assumeutxo/background chainstate validation but without leaking details like snapshot height, as we had done previously. Changes that actually make use of this flag follow in future commits.

2018-03-15Add static_assert to prevent VARINT(<signed value>)Russell Yanofsky
Using VARINT with signed types is dangerous because negative values will appear to serialize correctly, but then deserialize as positive values mod 128. This commit changes the VARINT macro to trigger an error by default if called with an signed value, and updates broken uses of VARINT to pass a special flag that lets them keep working with no change in behavior.

2017-01-12Replace FindLatestBefore used by importmuti with FindEarliestAtLeast.Gregory Maxwell
In spite of the name FindLatestBefore used std::lower_bound to try to find the earliest block with a nTime greater or equal to the the requested value. But lower_bound uses bisection and requires the input to be ordered with respect to the comparison operation. Block times are not well ordered. I don't know what lower_bound is permitted to do when the data is not sufficiently ordered, but it's probably not good. (I could construct an implementation which would infinite loop...) To resolve the issue this commit introduces a maximum-so-far to the block indexes and searches that. For clarity the function is renamed to reflect what it actually does. An issue that remains is that there is no grace period in importmulti: If a address is created at time T and a send is immediately broadcast and included by a miner with a slow clock there may not yet have been any block with at least time T. The normal rescan has a grace period of 7200 seconds, but importmulti does not.

2016-11-07Get rid of nType and nVersionPieter Wuille
Remove the nType and nVersion as parameters to all serialization methods and functions. There is only one place where it's read and has an impact (in CAddress), and even there it does not impact any of the recursively invoked serializers. Instead, the few places that need nType or nVersion are changed to read it directly from the stream object, through GetType() and GetVersion() methods which are added to all stream classes.

2016-04-28chain: define enum used as bit field as uint32_tWladimir J. van der Laan
Bitwise logic combined with `<` with undefined signedness will potentially results in undefined behavior. Fix this by defining the type as a c++11 typed enum. Fixes #6017.
2016-04-15Break circular dependency main ↔ txdbWladimir J. van der Laan
Break the circular dependency between main and txdb by: - Moving `CBlockFileInfo` from `main.h` to `chain.h`. I think this makes sense, as the other block-file stuff is there too. - Moving `CDiskTxPos` from `main.h` to `txdb.h`. This type seems specific to txdb. - Pass a functor `insertBlockIndex` to `LoadBlockIndexGuts`. This leaves it up to the caller how to insert block indices.
