Constants to match up protocol versions and messages
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 SigHash ¶
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 ¶
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() (bool, error) // Received a new block signature // Need to verify if the signature is signed by nodeID OnBlockSignature(chain ChainReader, nodeID discover.NodeID, sig *cbfttypes.BlockSignature) error // Process the BFT signatures OnNewBlock(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block) error // Process the BFT signatures OnPong(nodeID discover.NodeID, netLatency int64) error // Send a signal if a block synced from other peer. OnBlockSynced() CheckConsensusNode(nodeID discover.NodeID) (bool, error) IsConsensusNode() (bool, error) // 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 SetPrivateKey(privateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey) IsPrimaryNode() bool }
type BftMock ¶
type BftMock struct { }
func (*BftMock) APIs ¶
func (bm *BftMock) APIs(chain ChainReader) []rpc.API
APIs returns the RPC APIs this consensus engine provides.
func (*BftMock) Author ¶
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) CheckConsensusNode ¶
func (*BftMock) ConsensusNodes ¶
Returns the current consensus node address list.
func (*BftMock) Finalize ¶
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) HighestConfirmedBlock ¶
func (*BftMock) HighestLogicalBlock ¶
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) IsConsensusNode ¶
func (*BftMock) OnBlockSignature ¶
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 ¶
func (bm *BftMock) OnBlockSynced()
Send a signal if a block synced from other peer.
func (*BftMock) OnNewBlock ¶
func (bm *BftMock) OnNewBlock(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block) error
Process the BFT signatures
func (*BftMock) Prepare ¶
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 ¶
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) SetPrivateKey ¶
func (bm *BftMock) SetPrivateKey(privateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey)
func (*BftMock) ShouldSeal ¶
Returns whether the current node is out of the block
func (*BftMock) VerifyHeader ¶
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 ¶
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 ¶
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.
type Broadcaster ¶
type Broadcaster interface { // Enqueue add a block into fetcher queue Enqueue(id string, block *types.Block) // FindPeers retrives peers by addresses FindPeers(map[common.Address]bool) map[common.Address]Peer }
Broadcaster defines the interface to enqueue blocks to fetcher and find peer
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). Finalize(chain ChainReader, header *types.Header, state *state.StateDB, txs []*types.Transaction, receipts []*types.Receipt) (*types.Block, 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. Seal(chain ChainReader, block *types.Block, results chan<- *types.Block, stop <-chan struct{}) (*types.Block, error) // SealHash returns the hash of a block prior to it being sealed. SealHash(header *types.Header) common.Hash // APIs returns the RPC APIs this consensus engine provides. APIs(chain ChainReader) []rpc.API // Close terminates any background threads maintained by the consensus engine. Close() error }
Engine is an algorithm agnostic consensus engine.
type Handler ¶
type Handler interface { // NewChainHead handles a new head block comes NewChainHead() error // HandleMsg handles a message from peer HandleMsg(address common.Address, data p2p.Msg) (bool, error) // SetBroadcaster sets the broadcaster to send message to peers SetBroadcaster(Broadcaster) }
Handler should be implemented is the consensus needs to handle and send peer's message
type Istanbul ¶
