Overview

Package merkletree provides tools for calculating the Merkle root of a dataset, for creating a proof that a piece of data is in a Merkle tree of a given root, and for verifying proofs that a piece of data is in a Merkle tree of a given root. The tree is implemented according to the specification for Merkle trees provided in RFC 6962.

Package merkletree also supports building roots and proofs from cached subroots of the Merkle tree. For example, a large file could be cached by building the Merkle root for each 4MB sector and remembering the Merkle roots of each sector. Using a cached tree, the Merkle root of the whole file can be computed by passing the cached tree each of the roots of the 4MB sector. Building proofs using these cached roots is also supported. A proof must be built within the target sector using a normal Tree, requiring the whole sector to be hashed. The results of that proof can then be passed into the Prove() function of a cached tree, which will create the full proof without needing to hash the entire file. Caching also makes it inexpensive to update the Merkle root of the file after changing or deleting segments of the larger file.

Examples can be found in the README for the package.

Skip implements SubtreeHasher.

type CachedTree 

type CachedTree struct {
	Tree
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A CachedTree can be used to build Merkle roots and proofs from the cached Merkle roots of smaller blocks of data. Each CachedTree has a height, meaning every element added to the CachedTree is the root of a full Merkle tree containing 2^height leaves.

func NewCachedTree 

func NewCachedTree(h hash.Hash, cachedNodeHeight uint64) *CachedTree

NewCachedTree initializes a CachedTree with a hash object, which will be used when hashing the input.

func (*CachedTree) Prove 

func (ct *CachedTree) Prove(cachedProofSet [][]byte) (merkleRoot []byte, proofSet [][]byte, proofIndex uint64, numLeaves uint64)

Prove will create a proof that the leaf at the indicated index is a part of the data represented by the Merkle root of the Cached Tree. The CachedTree needs the proof set proving that the index is an element of the cached element in order to create a correct proof. After proof is called, the CachedTree is unchanged, and can receive more elements.

func (*CachedTree) SetIndex 

func (ct *CachedTree) SetIndex(i uint64) error

SetIndex will inform the CachedTree of the index of the leaf for which a storage proof is being created. The index should be the index of the actual leaf, and not the index of the cached element containing the leaf. SetIndex must be called on empty CachedTree.

	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewDefaultHasher 

func NewDefaultHasher(h hash.Hash) *DefaultTreeHasher

type LeafHasherz interface {
	HashLeaf(leaf []byte) []byte
}

type LeafRange 

type LeafRange struct {
	Start uint64
	End   uint64
}

A LeafRange represents the contiguous set of leaves [Start,End).

type MixedSubtreeHasher 

type MixedSubtreeHasher struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields

func NewMixedSubtreeHasher(nodeHashes [][]byte, leafReader io.Reader, leavesPerNode int, leafSize int, h hash.Hash) *MixedSubtreeHasher

NewMixedSubtreeHasher returns a new MixedSubtreeHasher that hashes nodeHashes which are already computed hashes of leavesPerNode leaves and also reads individual leaves from leafReader. The behavior of this implementation is greedy in regards to using the cached nodeHashes. A nodeHash will be consumed as soon as NextSubtreeRoot or Skip are called with a size greater than or equal to leavesPerNode.

func (*MixedSubtreeHasher) NextSubtreeRoot 

func (msh *MixedSubtreeHasher) NextSubtreeRoot(subtreeSize int) ([]byte, error)

NextSubtreeRoot implements SubtreeHasher.

func (*ReaderSubtreeHasher) NextSubtreeRoot 

func (rsh *ReaderSubtreeHasher) NextSubtreeRoot(subtreeSize int) ([]byte, error)

NextSubtreeRoot implements SubtreeHasher.

func (*ReaderSubtreeHasher) Skip 

func (rsh *ReaderSubtreeHasher) Skip(n int) (err error)

Skip implements SubtreeHasher.

type SubtreeHasher 

type SubtreeHasher interface {
	// NextSubtreeRoot returns the root of the next n leaves. If fewer than n
	// leaves are left in the tree, NextSubtreeRoot returns the root of those
	// leaves and nil. If no leaves are left, NextSubtreeRoot returns io.EOF.
	NextSubtreeRoot(n int) ([]byte, error)
	// Skip skips the next n leaves. If fewer than n leaves are left in the
	// tree, Skip returns io.ErrUnexpectedEOF. If exactly n leaves are left,
	// Skip returns nil (not io.EOF).
	Skip(n int) error
}

A SubtreeHasher calculates subtree roots in sequential order, for use with BuildRangeProof.

type Tree 

type Tree struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Tree takes data as leaves and returns the Merkle root. Each call to 'Push' adds one leaf to the Merkle tree. Calling 'Root' returns the Merkle root. The Tree also constructs proof that a single leaf is a part of the tree. The leaf can be chosen with 'SetIndex'. The memory footprint of Tree grows in O(log(n)) in the number of leaves.

func New 

func New(h hash.Hash) *Tree

New creates a new Tree. The provided hash will be used for all hashing operations within the Tree.

func NewFromTreehasher 

func NewFromTreehasher(th TreeHasher) *Tree

NewFromTreehasher creates a new Tree. The provided TreeHasher will be used for all hashing operations within the Tree.

func (*Tree) Prove 

func (t *Tree) Prove() (merkleRoot []byte, proofSet [][]byte, proofIndex uint64, numLeaves uint64)

Prove creates a proof that the leaf at the established index (established by SetIndex) is an element of the Merkle tree. Prove will return a nil proof set if used incorrectly. Prove does not modify the Tree. Prove can only be called if SetIndex has been called previously.

func (*Tree) Push 

func (t *Tree) Push(data []byte)

Push will add data to the set, building out the Merkle tree and Root. The tree does not remember all elements that are added, instead only keeping the log(n) elements that are necessary to build the Merkle root and keeping the log(n) elements necessary to build a proof that a piece of data is in the Merkle tree.

func (*Tree) PushSubTree 

func (t *Tree) PushSubTree(height int, sum []byte) error

PushSubTree pushes a cached subtree into the merkle tree. The subtree has to be smaller than the smallest subtree in the merkle tree, it has to be balanced and it can't contain the element that needs to be proven. Since we can't tell if a subTree is balanced, we can't sanity check for unbalanced trees. Therefore an unbalanced tree will cause silent errors, pain and misery for the person who wants to debug the resulting error.

func (*Tree) ReadAll 

func (t *Tree) ReadAll(r io.Reader, segmentSize int) error

ReadAll will read segments of size 'segmentSize' and push them into the tree until EOF is reached. Success will return 'err == nil', not 'err == EOF'. No padding is added to the data, so the last element may be smaller than 'segmentSize'.

func (*Tree) Root 

func (t *Tree) Root() []byte

Root returns the Merkle root of the data that has been pushed.

func (*Tree) SetIndex 

func (t *Tree) SetIndex(i uint64) error

SetIndex will tell the Tree to create a storage proof for the leaf at the input index. SetIndex must be called on an empty tree.

type TreeHasher 

type TreeHasher interface {
	LeafHasherz
	NodeHasher
}
