Functions

func GenerateProof

func GenerateProof(
	ctx context.Context,
	datadir string,
	labelHashFunc func(data []byte) []byte,
	merkleHashFunc func(lChild, rChild []byte) []byte,
	limit time.Time,
	securityParam uint8,
	minMemoryLayer uint,
	persist persistFunc,
) (uint64, *shared.MerkleProof, error)

GenerateProof computes the PoET DAG, uses Fiat-Shamir to derive a challenge from the Merkle root and generates a Merkle proof using the challenge and the DAG.

func GenerateProofRecovery

func GenerateProofRecovery(
	ctx context.Context,
	datadir string,
	labelHashFunc func(data []byte) []byte,
	merkleHashFunc func(lChild, rChild []byte) []byte,
	limit time.Time,
	securityParam uint8,
	nextLeafID uint64,
	parkedNodes [][]byte,
	persist persistFunc,
) (uint64, *shared.MerkleProof, error)

GenerateProofRecovery recovers proof generation, from a given 'nextLeafID' and for a given 'parkedNodes' snapshot.

func GenerateProofWithoutPersistency

func GenerateProofWithoutPersistency(
	ctx context.Context,
	datadir string,
	labelHashFunc func(data []byte) []byte,
	merkleHashFunc func(lChild, rChild []byte) []byte,
	limit time.Time,
	securityParam uint8,
	minMemoryLayer uint,
) (uint64, *shared.MerkleProof, error)

GenerateProofWithoutPersistency calls GenerateProof with disabled persistency functionality and potential soft/hard-shutdown recovery.

Types

type ReadWriterMetaFactory

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

ReadWriterMetaFactory generates Merkle LayerFactory functions. The functions it creates generate file read-writers starting from the base layer and up to minMemoryLayer-1. From minMemoryLayer and up the functions generate slice read-writers. The MetaFactory tracks the files it creates and removes them when Cleanup() is called.

func NewReadWriterMetaFactory

func NewReadWriterMetaFactory(minMemoryLayer uint, datadir string) *ReadWriterMetaFactory

NewReadWriterMetaFactory returns a new ReadWriterMetaFactory. minMemoryLayer determines the threshold in which lower layers caching is done on-disk, while from this layer up -- in-memory.

func (*ReadWriterMetaFactory) Cleanup

func (mf *ReadWriterMetaFactory) Cleanup()

Cleanup removes the files that were created by the LayerFactory functions generated by this MetaFactory.

func (*ReadWriterMetaFactory) GetFactory

func (mf *ReadWriterMetaFactory) GetFactory() cache.LayerFactory

GetFactory creates a Merkle LayerFactory function.
