# Network Upgrade Skeleton in Lotus This guide will walk you through the process of creating a skeleton for a network upgrade in Lotus. The process involves making changes in multiple repositories in the following order: 1. [`ref-fvm`](#ref-fvm-checklist) 2. [`filecoin-ffi`](#filecoin-ffi-checklist) 3. [`go-state-types`](#go-state-types-checklist) 4. [`lotus`](#lotus-checklist) Each repository has its own set of steps that need to be followed. This guide will provide detailed instructions for each repository. ## Setup 1. Clone the [ref-fvm](https://github.com/filecoin-project/ref-fvm.git) repository. 2. Clone the [filecoin-ffi](https://github.com/filecoin-project/filecoin-ffi.git) repository. 3. Clone the [go-state-types](https://github.com/filecoin-project/go-state-types) repository. 4. In your Lotus repository, add `replace github.com/filecoin-project/go-state-types => ../go-state-types` to the very end of your Lotus `go.mod` file. - This ensures that your local clone copy of `go-state-types` is used. Any changes you make there will be reflected in your Lotus project. ## Ref-FVM Checklist 1. Add support for the new network version in Ref-FVM: - In `fvm/Cargo.toml` add `nvXX-dev` as a feature flag in the [features]-section. - In `fvm/src/gas/price_list.rs`, extend the `price_list_by_network_version` function to support the new network version with the `nvXX-dev` feature flag. - In fvm/src/machine/default.rs, locate the new function within your machine context. You'll find a SUPPORTED_VERSIONS constant that sets the range of supported network versions. Update this range to include the new network version. Do this by replacing the existing feature flag nvXX-dev and NetworkVersion::VXX with the new ones corresponding to your new network version. - In `shared/src/version/mod.rs`, in the `NetworkVersion` implementation, you will find a series of constants representing different network versions. To add a new network version, you need to declare a new constant: `pub const (VXX+1): Self = Self(XX+1);` You can take a look at [this Ref-FVM PR as a reference](https://github.com/filecoin-project/ref-fvm/pull/1929), which added the skeleton for network version 22. ## Filecoin-FFI Checklist 1. Update the `TryFrom` implementation for `EngineVersion` in `rust/src/fvm/engine.rs` - Add the new network version number (XX+1) to the existing match arm for the network version. 2. Patch the FVM-dependency (fvm3) in `rust/cargo.toml` to use the custom branch of the FVM created in the [Ref-FVM Checklist](#ref-fvm-checklist)) - Add `features = ["your-ref-fvm-branch"]` to tell Cargo to use you Ref-FVM branch. You can take a look at this [Filecoin-FFI PR as a reference](https://github.com/filecoin-project/filecoin-ffi/pull/438), which added the skeleton for network version 22. ## Go-State-Types Checklist 1. Follow the [go-state-types actor version checklist](https://github.com/filecoin-project/go-state-types/blob/master/actors_version_checklist.md): - Copy `go-state-types/builtin/vX` to `go-state-types/builtin/v(X+1)`. - Change all references from vX to v(X+1) in the new files. - Add new network version to `network/version.go`. - Add new actors version to `actors/version.go`. - Add `Version(XX+1) Version = XX+1` as a constant. - In `func VersionForNetwork` add `case network.Version(XX+1): return Version(XX+1), nil`. - Add the new version to the gen step of the makefile. - Add `$(GO_BIN) run ./builtin/v(XX+1)/gen/gen.go`. You can take a look at this [Go-State-Types PR as a reference](https://github.com/filecoin-project/go-state-types/pull/232), which added the skeleton for network version 22. ## Lotus Checklist 1. Import new actors: - Create a mock actor-bundle for the new network version. - In `/build/actors` run `./pack.sh vXX+1 vXX.0.0` where XX is the current actor bundle version. 2. Define upgrade heights in `build/params_`: - Update the following files: - `params_2k.go` - Set previous `UpgradeXxxxxHeight = abi.ChainEpoch(-xx-1)` - Add `var UpgradeXxxxxHeight = abi.ChainEpoch(200)` - Add `UpgradeXxxxxHeight = getUpgradeHeight("LOTUS_XXXXX_HEIGHT", UpgradeXXXXHeight)` - Set `const GenesisNetworkVersion = network.VersionXX` where XX is the network version you are upgrading from. - `params_butterfly.go` - set previous upgrade to `var UpgradeXxxxxHeigh = abi.ChainEpoch(-xx-1)` - Add comment with ?????? signaling that the new upgrade date is unkown - Add `const UpgradeXxxxxHeight = 999999999999999` - `params_calibnet.go` - Add comment with `??????` signaling that the new upgrade date is unkown - Add `const UpgradeXxxxxHeight = 999999999999999` - `params_interop.go` - set previous upgrade to `var UpgradeXxxxxHeigh = abi.ChainEpoch(-xx-1)` - Add `const UpgradeXxxxxHeight = 50` - `params_mainnet.go` - Set previous upgrade to `const UpgradeXxxxxHeight = XX` - Add comment with ???? signaling that the new upgrade date is unkown - Add `var UpgradeXxxxxxHeight = abi.ChainEpoch(9999999999)` - Change the `LOTUS_DISABLE_XXXX` env variable to the new network name - `params_testground.go` - Add `UpgradeXxxxxHeight abi.ChainEpoch = (-xx-1)` 3. Generate adapters: - Update `gen/inlinegen-data.json`. - Add `XX+1` to "actorVersions" and set "latestActorsVersion" to `XX+1`. - Add `XX+1` to "networkVersions" and set "latestNetworkVersion" to `XX+1`. - Run `make actors-gen`. This generates the `/chain/actors/builtin/*` code, `/chain/actors/policy/policy.go` code, `/chain/actors/version.go`, and `/itest/kit/ensemble_opts_nv.go`. 4. Update `chain/consensus/filcns/upgrades.go`. - Import `nv(XX+1) "github.com/filecoin-project/go-state-types/builtin/v(XX+1)/migration`. - Add Schedule. [^1] - Add Migration. [^2] 5. Add actorstype to the NewActorRegistry in `/chain/consensus/computestate.go`. - Add `inv.Register(actorstypes.Version(XX+1), vm.ActorsVersionPredicate(actorstypes.Version(XX+1)), builtin.MakeRegistry(actorstypes.Version(XX+1))`. 6. Add upgrade field to `api/types.go/ForkUpgradeParams`. - Add `UpgradeXxxxxHeight abi.ChainEpoch` to `ForkUpgradeParams` struct. 7. Add upgrade to `node/impl/full/state.go`. - Add `UpgradeXxxxxHeight: build.UpgradeXxxxxHeight,`. 8. Add network version to `chain/state/statetree.go`. - Add `network.VersionXX+1` to `VersionForNetwork` function. 9. Run `make gen`. 10. Run `make docsgen-cli`. And you're done! This should create a network upgrade skeleton that you are able to run locally with your local go-state-types clones, and a mock Actors-bundle. This will allow you to: - Have a local developer network that starts at the current network version. - Be able to see the Actor CIDs/Actor version for the mock v12-bundle through `lotus state actor-cids --network-version XX+1` - Have a successful pre-migration. - Complete Migration at upgrade epoch, but fail immidiately after the upgrade. You can take a look at this [Lotus PR as a reference](https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/pull/11432), which added the skeleton for network version 22. // TODO: Create a video-tutorial going through all the steps [^1]: Here is an example of how you can add a schedule: ```go { Height: build.UpgradeXxxxHeight, Network: network.Version(XX+1), Migration: UpgradeActorsV(XX+1), PreMigrations: []stmgr.PreMigration{{ PreMigration: PreUpgradeActors(VXX+1), StartWithin: 120, DontStartWithin: 15, StopWithin: 10, }}, Expensive: true, }, ``` This schedule should be added to the `DefaultUpgradeSchedule` function, specifically within the `updates` array.
