This PR implements les.freeClientPool. It also adds a simulated clock
in common/mclock, which enables time-sensitive tests to run quickly
and still produce accurate results, and package common/prque which is
a generalised variant of prque that enables removing elements other
than the top one from the queue.
les.freeClientPool implements a client database that limits the
connection time of each client and manages accepting/rejecting
incoming connections and even kicking out some connected clients. The
pool calculates recent usage time for each known client (a value that
increases linearly when the client is connected and decreases
exponentially when not connected). Clients with lower recent usage are
preferred, unknown nodes have the highest priority. Already connected
nodes receive a small bias in their favor in order to avoid accepting
and instantly kicking out clients.
Note: the pool can use any string for client identification. Using
signature keys for that purpose would not make sense when being known
has a negative value for the client. Currently the LES protocol
manager uses IP addresses (without port address) to identify clients.
This package was meant to hold an improved 256 bit integer library, but
the effort was abandoned in 2015. AFAIK nothing ever used this package.
Time to say goodbye.
Allow the --abi flag to be given - to indicate that it should read the
ABI information from standard input. It expects to read the solc output
with the --combined-json flag providing bin, abi, userdoc, devdoc, and
metadata, and works very similarly to the internal invocation of solc,
except it allows external invocation of solc.
This facilitates integration with more complex solc invocations, such
as invocations that require path remapping or --allow-paths tweaks.
Simple usage example:
solc --combined-json bin,abi,userdoc,devdoc,metadata *.sol | abigen --abi -
* common: delete StringToAddress, StringToHash
These functions are confusing because they don't parse hex, but use the
bytes of the string. This change removes them, replacing all uses of
StringToAddress(s) by BytesToAddress([]byte(s)).
* eth/filters: remove incorrect use of common.BytesToAddress
* common/fdlimit: Move fdlimit files to separate package
When go-ethereum is used as a library the calling program need to set
the FD limit.
This commit extract fdlimit files to a separate package so it can be
used outside of go-ethereum.
* common/fdlimit: Remove FdLimit from functions signature
* common/fdlimit: Rename fdlimit functions
This adds type and struct field context to error messages.
Instead of "hex string of odd length" users will now see "json: cannot
unmarshal hex string of odd length into Go struct field SendTxArgs.from
of type common.Address".
Byte padding function should return the given slice if the length is
smaller or equal rather than *only* smaller than.
This fix improves almost all EVM push operations.
* p2p/discover, p2p/discv5: add marshaling methods to Node
* p2p/netutil: make Netlist decodable from TOML
* common/math: encode nil HexOrDecimal256 as 0x0
* cmd/geth: add --config file flag
* cmd/geth: add missing license header
* eth: prettify Config again, fix tests
* eth: use gasprice.Config instead of duplicating its fields
* eth/gasprice: hide nil default from dumpconfig output
* cmd/geth: hide genesis block in dumpconfig output
* node: make tests compile
* console: fix tests
* cmd/geth: make TOML keys look exactly like Go struct fields
* p2p: use discovery by default
This makes the zero Config slightly more useful. It also fixes package
node tests because Node detects reuse of the datadir through the
NodeDatabase.
* cmd/geth: make ethstats URL settable through config file
* cmd/faucet: fix configuration
* cmd/geth: dedup attach tests
* eth: add comment for DefaultConfig
* eth: pass downloader.SyncMode in Config
This removes the FastSync, LightSync flags in favour of a more
general SyncMode flag.
* cmd/utils: remove jitvm flags
* cmd/utils: make mutually exclusive flag error prettier
It now reads:
Fatal: flags --dev, --testnet can't be used at the same time
* p2p: fix typo
* node: add DefaultConfig, use it for geth
* mobile: add missing NoDiscovery option
* cmd/utils: drop MakeNode
This exposed a couple of places that needed to be updated to use
node.DefaultConfig.
* node: fix typo
* eth: make fast sync the default mode
* cmd/utils: remove IPCApiFlag (unused)
* node: remove default IPC path
Set it in the frontends instead.
* cmd/geth: add --syncmode
* cmd/utils: make --ipcdisable and --ipcpath mutually exclusive
* cmd/utils: don't enable WS, HTTP when setting addr
* cmd/utils: fix --identity
Metadata is provided as JSON string, rather than as JSON object. This
ensures that we can decode to a set of bytes that will be consistent
with the swarm hash embedded in the code, without worrying about
ambiguities of spacing, ordering, or escaping.
This commit makes the wrapper types more generally applicable.
encoding.TextMarshaler is supported by most codec implementations (e.g.
for yaml).
The tests now ensure that package json actually recognizes the custom
marshaler implementation irrespective of how it is implemented.
The Uint type has new tests, too. These are tricky because uint size
depends on the CPU word size. Turns out that there was one incorrect
case where decoding returned ErrUint64Range instead of ErrUintRange.
