Variables ¶
var ( // ErrUnknownAncestor is returned when validating a block requires an ancestor // that is unknown. ErrUnknownAncestor = errors.New("unknown ancestor") // ErrPrunedAncestor is returned when validating a block requires an ancestor // that is known, but the state of which is not available. ErrPrunedAncestor = errors.New("pruned ancestor") // ErrFutureBlock is returned when a block's timestamp is in the future according // to the current node. ErrFutureBlock = errors.New("block in the future") // ErrInvalidNumber is returned if a block's number doesn't equal it's parent's // plus one. ErrInvalidNumber = errors.New("invalid block number") )
var ( ExtraSeal = 65 // Fixed number of extra-data suffix bytes reserved for signer seal // ErrMissingSignature is returned if a block's extra-data section doesn't seem // to contain a 65 byte secp256k1 signature. ErrMissingSignature = errors.New("extra-data 65 byte signature suffix missing") )
Functions ¶
func Ecrecover ¶ added in v0.7.0
Ecrecover extracts the Ethereum account address from a signed header.
func SigHash ¶ added in v0.7.0
SigHash returns the hash which is used as input for the proof-of-authority signing. It is the hash of the entire header apart from the 65 byte signature contained at the end of the extra data.
Note, the method requires the extra data to be at least 65 bytes, otherwise it panics. This is done to avoid accidentally using both forms (signature present or not), which could be abused to produce different hashes for the same header.
Types ¶
type Bft ¶ added in v0.7.0
type Bft interface { Engine // Returns the current consensus node address list. ConsensusNodes() ([]discover.NodeID, error) // Returns whether the current node is out of the block ShouldSeal(curTime int64) (bool, error) CalcBlockDeadline(timePoint int64) (time.Time, error) CalcNextBlockTime(timePoint int64) (time.Time, error) // Process the BFT signatures OnPong(nodeID discover.NodeID, netLatency int64) error CheckConsensusNode(address common.Address) bool IsConsensusNode() bool // At present, the highest reasonable block, when the node is out of the block, it needs to generate the block based on the highest reasonable block. HighestLogicalBlock() *types.Block HighestConfirmedBlock() *types.Block GetBlock(hash common.Hash, number uint64) *types.Block GetBlockWithoutLock(hash common.Hash, number uint64) *types.Block SetPrivateKey(privateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey) IsSignedBySelf(sealHash common.Hash, signature []byte) bool Evidences() string CommitBlockBP(block *types.Block, txs int, gasUsed uint64, elapse time.Duration) }
type BftMock ¶ added in v0.7.0
type BftMock struct { }
func (*BftMock) APIs ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) APIs(chain ChainReader) []rpc.API
APIs returns the RPC APIs this consensus engine provides.
func (*BftMock) Author ¶ added in v0.7.0
Author retrieves the Ethereum address of the account that minted the given block, which may be different from the header's coinbase if a consensus engine is based on signatures.
func (*BftMock) CalcDifficulty ¶ added in v0.7.0
CalcDifficulty is the difficulty adjustment algorithm. It returns the difficulty that a new block should have.
func (*BftMock) CheckConsensusNode ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) Close ¶ added in v0.7.0
Close terminates any background threads maintained by the consensus engine.
func (*BftMock) ConsensusNodes ¶ added in v0.7.0
Returns the current consensus node address list.

func (bm *BftMock) Finalize(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header, state *state.StateDB, txs []*types.Transaction, receipts []*types.Receipt) (*types.Block, error)
Finalize runs any post-transaction state modifications (e.g. block rewards) and assembles the final block. Note: The block header and state database might be updated to reflect any consensus rules that happen at finalization (e.g. block rewards).
func (*BftMock) GetBlockByHash ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) HighestConfirmedBlock ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) HighestLogicalBlock ¶ added in v0.7.0
At present, the highest reasonable block, when the node is out of the block, it needs to generate the block based on the highest reasonable block.
func (*BftMock) InsertChain ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) IsConsensusNode ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) NextBaseBlock ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (*BftMock) OnBlockSignature ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) OnBlockSignature(chain ChainReader, nodeID discover.NodeID, sig *cbfttypes.BlockSignature) error
Received a new block signature Need to verify if the signature is signed by nodeID
func (*BftMock) OnBlockSynced ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) OnBlockSynced()
Send a signal if a block synced from other peer.
func (*BftMock) OnNewBlock ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) OnNewBlock(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block) error
Process the BFT signatures
func (*BftMock) Prepare ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) Prepare(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header) error
Prepare initializes the consensus fields of a block header according to the rules of a particular engine. The changes are executed inline.
func (*BftMock) Seal ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) Seal(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block, results chan<- *types.Block, stop <-chan struct{}) error
Seal generates a new sealing request for the given input block and pushes the result into the given channel.
Note, the method returns immediately and will send the result async. More than one result may also be returned depending on the consensus algorithm.
func (*BftMock) SealHash ¶ added in v0.7.0
SealHash returns the hash of a block prior to it being sealed.
func (*BftMock) SetPrivateKey ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) SetPrivateKey(privateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey)
func (*BftMock) ShouldSeal ¶ added in v0.7.0
Returns whether the current node is out of the block
func (*BftMock) VerifyHeader ¶ added in v0.7.0
VerifyHeader checks whether a header conforms to the consensus rules of a given engine. Verifying the seal may be done optionally here, or explicitly via the VerifySeal method.
func (*BftMock) VerifyHeaders ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) VerifyHeaders(chain ChainReader, headers []*types.Header, seals []bool) (chan<- struct{}, <-chan error)
VerifyHeaders is similar to VerifyHeader, but verifies a batch of headers concurrently. The method returns a quit channel to abort the operations and a results channel to retrieve the async verifications (the order is that of the input slice).
func (*BftMock) VerifySeal ¶ added in v0.7.0
func (bm *BftMock) VerifySeal(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header) error
VerifySeal checks whether the crypto seal on a header is valid according to the consensus rules of the given engine.

func (bm *BftMock) VerifyUncles(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block) error
VerifyUncles verifies that the given block's uncles conform to the consensus rules of a given engine.
type ChainReader ¶
type ChainReader interface { // Config retrieves the blockchain's chain configuration. Config() *params.ChainConfig // CurrentHeader retrieves the current header from the local chain. CurrentHeader() *types.Header // GetHeader retrieves a block header from the database by hash and number. GetHeader(hash common.Hash, number uint64) *types.Header // GetHeaderByNumber retrieves a block header from the database by number. GetHeaderByNumber(number uint64) *types.Header // GetHeaderByHash retrieves a block header from the database by its hash. GetHeaderByHash(hash common.Hash) *types.Header // GetBlock retrieves a block from the database by hash and number. GetBlock(hash common.Hash, number uint64) *types.Block }
ChainReader defines a small collection of methods needed to access the local blockchain during header verification.
type Engine ¶
type Engine interface { // Author retrieves the Ethereum address of the account that minted the given // block, which may be different from the header's coinbase if a consensus // engine is based on signatures. Author(header *types.Header) (common.Address, error) // VerifyHeader checks whether a header conforms to the consensus rules of a // given engine. Verifying the seal may be done optionally here, or explicitly // via the VerifySeal method. VerifyHeader(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header, seal bool) error // VerifyHeaders is similar to VerifyHeader, but verifies a batch of headers // concurrently. The method returns a quit channel to abort the operations and // a results channel to retrieve the async verifications (the order is that of // the input slice). VerifyHeaders(chain ChainReader, headers []*types.Header, seals []bool) (chan<- struct{}, <-chan error) // VerifySeal checks whether the crypto seal on a header is valid according to // the consensus rules of the given engine. VerifySeal(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header) error // Prepare initializes the consensus fields of a block header according to the // rules of a particular engine. The changes are executed inline. Prepare(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header) error // Finalize runs any post-transaction state modifications (e.g. block rewards) // and assembles the final block. // Note: The block header and state database might be updated to reflect any // consensus rules that happen at finalization (e.g. block rewards).
