From 1ed52fbb4d81f7b7634fd4fb6d1d00e1478129dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Chow Date: Thu, 5 Dec 2019 16:52:18 -0500 Subject: Remove IBD check in sethdseed It is no longer necessary to wait for IBD to be complete before setting a HD seed. This check was originally to ensure that restoring an old seed on an out of sync node would scan the entire blockchain and thus not miss transactions that involved keys that were not in the keypool. This was necessary as once the seed was changed, no further keys would be derived from the old seed(s). As we are now topping up inactive seeds as we find those keys to be used, this check is no longer necessary. During IBD, each time we find a used key belonging to an inactive hd seed, we will still generate more keys from that inactive seed. --- src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp | 4 ---- 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp b/src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp index 91162d575d..913503ea2c 100644 --- a/src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp +++ b/src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp @@ -3972,10 +3972,6 @@ UniValue sethdseed(const JSONRPCRequest& request) LegacyScriptPubKeyMan& spk_man = EnsureLegacyScriptPubKeyMan(*pwallet, true); - if (pwallet->chain().isInitialBlockDownload()) { - throw JSONRPCError(RPC_CLIENT_IN_INITIAL_DOWNLOAD, "Cannot set a new HD seed while still in Initial Block Download"); - } - if (pwallet->IsWalletFlagSet(WALLET_FLAG_DISABLE_PRIVATE_KEYS)) { throw JSONRPCError(RPC_WALLET_ERROR, "Cannot set a HD seed to a wallet with private keys disabled"); } -- cgit v1.2.3
