2013-04-07Make sure we always have a node to do IBD fromPieter Wuille
This introduces the concept of the 'sync node', which is the one we asked for missing blocks. In case the sync node goes away, a new one will be selected. For now, the heuristic is very simple, but it can easily be extended later to add better policies.
2013-04-04Drop release times for CNodePieter Wuille
It seems there were two mechanisms for assessing whether a CNode was still in use: a refcount and a release timestamp. The latter seems to have been there for a long time, as a safety mechanism. However, this timer also keeps CNode objects alive for far longer than necessary after disconnects, potentially opening up a DoS window. This commit removes the timestamp-based mechanism, and replaces it with an assert(nRefCount >= 0), to verify that the refcounting is indeed correctly working.

2013-04-03Shutdown cleanup prep-workGavin Andresen
Create a boost::thread_group object at the qt/bitcoind main-loop level that will hold pointers to all the main-loop threads. This will replace the vnThreadsRunning[] array. For testing, ported the BitcoinMiner threads to use its own boost::thread_group.

This will result in re-requesting invs if we are under heavy inv load, however as long as we get no more than 16,000 invs in two minutes, this should have no effect on runtime behavior.
2013-03-30Process getdata invs separately until send buffer overflowsPieter Wuille
There exists a per-message-processed send buffer overflow protection, where processing is halted when the send buffer is larger than the allowed maximum. This protection does not apply to individual items, however, and getdata has the potential for causing large amounts of data to be sent. In case several hundreds of blocks are requested in one getdata, the send buffer can easily grow 50 megabytes above the send buffer limit. This commit breaks up the processing of getdata requests, remembering them inside a CNode when too many are requested at once.
2013-03-29Use per-message send buffer, rather than per connectionPieter Wuille
2013-03-29Some fixes to CNetMessage processingPieter Wuille
* Change CNode::vRecvMsg to be a deque instead of a vector (less copying) * Make sure to acquire cs_vRecvMsg in CNode::CloseSocketDisconnect (as it may be called without that lock).
2013-03-29P2P: improve RX/TX flow controlJeff Garzik
1) "optimistic write": Push each message to kernel socket buffer immediately. 2) If there is write data at select time, that implies send() blocked during optimistic write. Drain write queue, before receiving any more messages. This avoids needlessly queueing received data, if the remote peer is not themselves receiving data. Result: write buffer (and thus memory usage) is kept small, DoS potential is slightly lower, and TCP flow control signalling is properly utilized. The kernel will queue data into the socket buffer, then signal the remote peer to stop sending data, until we resume reading again.
2013-03-29P2P: parse network datastream into header/data components in socket threadJeff Garzik
Replaces CNode::vRecv buffer with a vector of CNetMessage's. This simplifies ProcessMessages() and eliminates several redundant data copies. Overview: * socket thread now parses incoming message datastream into header/data components, as encapsulated by CNetMessage * socket thread adds each CNetMessage to a vector inside CNode * message thread (ProcessMessages) iterates through CNode's CNetMessage vector Message parsing is made more strict: * Socket is disconnected, if message larger than MAX_SIZE or if CMessageHeader deserialization fails (latter is impossible?). Previously, code would simply eat garbage data all day long. * Socket is disconnected, if we fail to find pchMessageStart. We do not search through garbage, to find pchMessageStart. Each message must begin precisely after the last message ends. ProcessMessages() always processes a complete message, and is more efficient: * buffer is always precisely sized, using CDataStream::resize(), rather than progressively sized in 64k chunks. More efficient for large messages like "block". * whole-buffer memory copy eliminated (vRecv -> vMsg) * other buffer-shifting memory copies eliminated (vRecv.insert, vRecv.erase)

2013-01-16Let a node opt out of tx invs before we get a their bloom filterMatt Corallo
Note that the default value for fRelayTxes is false, meaning we now no longer relay tx inv messages before receiving the remote peer's version message.

2013-01-09Remove fClientPieter Wuille
Client (SPV) mode never got implemented entirely, and whatever part was already working, is likely not been tested (or even executed at all) for the past two years. This removes it entirely. If we want an SPV implementation, I think we should first get the block chain data structures to be encapsulated in a class implementing a standard interface, and then writing an alternate implementation with SPV semantics.
2013-01-08Parallelize script verificationPieter Wuille
* During block verification (when parallelism is requested), script check actions are stored instead of being executed immediately. * After every processed transactions, its signature actions are pushed to a CScriptCheckQueue, which maintains a queue and some synchronization mechanism. * Two or more threads (if enabled) start processing elements from this queue, * When the block connection code is finished processing transactions, it joins the worker pool until the queue is empty. As cs_main is held the entire time, and all verification must be finished before the block continues processing, this does not reach the best possible performance. It is a less drastic change than some more advanced mechanisms (like doing verification out-of-band entirely, and rolling back blocks when a failure is detected). The -par=N flag controls the number of threads (1-16). 0 means auto, and is the default.
