avoids mining txes after a fork that are invalid by this fork's
rules, but were valid by the previous fork rules at the time
they were verified and added to the txpool.
Adds the following:
- "get_miner_data" to RPC API
- "json-miner-data" to ZeroMQ subscriber contexts
Both provide the necessary data to create a custom block template. They are used by p2pool.
Data provided:
- major fork version
- current height
- previous block id
- RandomX seed hash
- network difficulty
- median block weight
- coins mined by the network so far
- mineable mempool transactions
There are quite a few variables in the code that are no longer
(or perhaps never were) in use. These were discovered by enabling
compiler warnings for unused variables and cleaning them up.
In most cases where the unused variables were the result
of a function call the call was left but the variable
assignment removed, unless it was obvious that it was
a simple getter with no side effects.
A 20% fluff probability increases the precision of a spy connected to
every node by 10% on average, compared to a network using 0% fluff
probability. The current value (10% fluff) should increase precision by
~5% compared to baseline.
This decreases the expected stem length from 10 to 5. The embargo
timeout was therefore lowered to 39s; the fifth node in a stem is
expected to have a 90% chance of being the first to timeout, which is
the same probability we currently have with an expected stem length of
10 nodes.
- New flag in NOTIFY_NEW_TRANSACTION to indicate stem mode
- Stem loops detected in tx_pool.cpp
- Embargo timeout for a blackhole attack during stem phase

A newly synced Alice sends a (typically quite small) list of
txids in the local tpxool to a random peer Bob, who then uses
the existing tx relay system to send Alice any tx in his txpool
which is not in the list Alice sent
In case of a 0 tx weight, we use a placeholder value to insert in the
fee-per-byte set. This is used for pruning and mining, and those txes
are pruned, so will not be too large, nor added to the block template
if mining, so this is safe.
CID 204465
If the peer (whether pruned or not itself) supports sending pruned blocks
to syncing nodes, the pruned version will be sent along with the hash
of the pruned data and the block weight. The original tx hashes can be
reconstructed from the pruned txes and theur prunable data hash. Those
hashes and the block weights are hashes and checked against the set of
precompiled hashes, ensuring the data we received is the original data.
It is currently not possible to use this system when not using the set
of precompiled hashes, since block weights can not otherwise be checked
for validity.
This is off by default for now, and is enabled by --sync-pruned-blocks
The 98th percentile position in the agebytes map was incorrectly
calculated: it assumed the transactions in the mempool all have unique
timestamps at second-granularity. This commit fixes this by correctly
finding the right cumulative number of transactions in the map suffix.
This bug could lead to an out-of-bounds write in the rare case that
all transactions in the mempool were received (and added to the mempool)
at a rate of at least 50 transactions per second. (More specifically,
the number of *unique* receive_time values, which have second-
granularity, must be at most 2% of the number of transactions in the
mempool for this crash to trigger.) If this condition is satisfied, 'it'
points to *before* the agebytes map, 'delta' gets a nonsense value, and
the value of 'i' in the first stats.histo-filling loop will be out of
bounds of stats.histo.
