This changes the Pop method to assign the zero value before
reducing slice size. Doing so ensures the backing array does not
reference removed item values.
* p2p: new dial scheduler
This change replaces the peer-to-peer dial scheduler with a new and
improved implementation. The new code is better than the previous
implementation in two key aspects:
- The time between discovery of a node and dialing that node is
significantly lower in the new version. The old dialState kept
a buffer of nodes and launched a task to refill it whenever the buffer
became empty. This worked well with the discovery interface we used to
have, but doesn't really work with the new iterator-based discovery
API.
- Selection of static dial candidates (created by Server.AddPeer or
through static-nodes.json) performs much better for large amounts of
static peers. Connections to static nodes are now limited like dynanic
dials and can no longer overstep MaxPeers or the dial ratio.
* p2p/simulations/adapters: adapt to new NodeDialer interface
* p2p: re-add check for self in checkDial
* p2p: remove peersetCh
* p2p: allow static dials when discovery is disabled
* p2p: add test for dialScheduler.removeStatic
* p2p: remove blank line
* p2p: fix documentation of maxDialPeers
* p2p: change "ok" to "added" in static node log
* p2p: improve dialTask docs
Also increase log level for "Can't resolve node"
* p2p: ensure dial resolver is truly nil without discovery
* p2p: add "looking for peers" log message
* p2p: clean up Server.run comments
* p2p: fix maxDialedConns for maxpeers < dialRatio
Always allocate at least one dial slot unless dialing is disabled using
NoDial or MaxPeers == 0. Most importantly, this fixes MaxPeers == 1 to
dedicate the sole slot to dialing instead of listening.
* p2p: fix RemovePeer to disconnect the peer again
Also make RemovePeer synchronous and add a test.
* p2p: remove "Connection set up" log message
* p2p: clean up connection logging
We previously logged outgoing connection failures up to three times.
- in SetupConn() as "Setting up connection failed addr=..."
- in setupConn() with an error-specific message and "id=... addr=..."
- in dial() as "Dial error task=..."
This commit ensures a single log message is emitted per failure and adds
"id=... addr=... conn=..." everywhere (id= omitted when the ID isn't
known yet).
Also avoid printing a log message when a static dial fails but can't be
resolved because discv4 is disabled. The light client hit this case all
the time, increasing the message count to four lines per failed
connection.
* p2p: document that RemovePeer blocks
The dialer limits itself to one attempt every 30s. Apply the same limit
in Server and reject peers which try to connect too eagerly. The check
against the limit happens right after accepting the connection.
Further changes in this commit ensure we pass the Server logger
down to Peer instances, discovery and dialState. Unit test logging now
works in all Server tests.
