Functions

func CalcDifficulty 

func CalcDifficulty(config *params.ChainConfig, time uint64, parent *types.Header) *big.Int

CalcDifficulty is the difficulty adjustment algorithm. It returns the difficulty that a new block should have when created at time given the parent block's time and difficulty.

func MakeCache 

func MakeCache(block uint64, dir string)

MakeCache generates a new VBGash cache and optionally stores it to disk.

func MakeDataset 

func MakeDataset(block uint64, dir string)

MakeDataset generates a new VBGash dataset and optionally stores it to disk.

func SeedHash 

func SeedHash(block uint64) []byte

SeedHash is the seed to use for generating a verification cache and the mining dataset.

Types

type API 

type API struct {
	VBGash *VBGash
}

API exposes VBGash related mVBGods for the RPC interface.

func (*API) GVBGashrate 

func (api *API) GVBGashrate() uint64

GVBGashrate returns the current hashrate for local CPU miner and remote miner.

func (*API) GetWork 

func (api *API) GetWork() ([4]string, error)

GetWork returns a work package for external miner.

The work package consists of 3 strings: 

result[0] - 32 bytes hex encoded current block header pow-hash
result[1] - 32 bytes hex encoded seed hash used for DAG
result[2] - 32 bytes hex encoded boundary condition ("target"), 2^256/difficulty
result[3] - hex encoded block number

func (*API) SubmitHashRate 

func (api *API) SubmitHashRate(rate hexutil.Uint64, id common.Hash) bool

SubmitHashrate can be used for remote miners to submit their hash rate. This enables the node to report the combined hash rate of all miners which submit work through this node.

It accepts the miner hash rate and an identifier which must be unique between nodes.

func (*API) SubmitWork 

func (api *API) SubmitWork(nonce types.BlockNonce, hash, digest common.Hash) bool

SubmitWork can be used by external miner to submit their POW solution. It returns an indication if the work was accepted. Note either an invalid solution, a stale work a non-existent work will return false.

type Config 

type Config struct {
	CacheDir         string
	CachesInMem      int
	CachesOnDisk     int
	CachesLockMmap   bool
	DatasetDir       string
	DatasetsInMem    int
	DatasetsOnDisk   int
	DatasetsLockMmap bool
	PowMode          Mode

	Log log.Logger `toml:"-"`
}

Config are the configuration parameters of the VBGash.

type Mode 

type Mode uint

Mode defines the type and amount of PoW verification an VBGash engine makes. 

const (
	ModeNormal Mode = iota
	ModeShared
	ModeTest
	ModeFake
	ModeFullFake
)

type VBGash 

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

VBGash is a consensus engine based on proof-of-work implementing the VBGash algorithm.

func New 

func New(config Config, notify []string, noverify bool) *VBGash

New creates a full sized VBGash PoW scheme and starts a background thread for remote mining, also optionally notifying a batch of remote services of new work packages.

func NewFakeDelayer 

func NewFakeDelayer(delay time.Duration) *VBGash

NewFakeDelayer creates a VBGash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks as valid, but delays verifications by some time, though they still have to conform to the vbgloble consensus rules.

func NewFakeFailer 

func NewFakeFailer(fail uint64) *VBGash

NewFakeFailer creates a VBGash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks as valid apart from the single one specified, though they still have to conform to the vbgloble consensus rules.

func NewFaker 

func NewFaker() *VBGash

NewFaker creates a VBGash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks' seal as valid, though they still have to conform to the vbgloble consensus rules.

func NewFullFaker 

func NewFullFaker() *VBGash

NewFullFaker creates an VBGash consensus engine with a full fake scheme that accepts all blocks as valid, without checking any consensus rules whatsoever.

func NewShared 

func NewShared() *VBGash

NewShared creates a full sized VBGash PoW shared between all requesters running in the same process.

func NewTester 

func NewTester(notify []string, noverify bool) *VBGash

NewTester creates a small sized VBGash PoW scheme useful only for testing purposes.

func (*VBGash) APIs 

func (VBGash *VBGash) APIs(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader) []rpc.API

APIs implements consensus.Engine, returning the user facing RPC APIs.

func (*VBGash) Author 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Author(header *types.Header) (common.Address, error)

Author implements consensus.Engine, returning the header's coinbase as the proof-of-work verified author of the block.

func (*VBGash) CalcDifficulty 

func (VBGash *VBGash) CalcDifficulty(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, time uint64, parent *types.Header) *big.Int

CalcDifficulty is the difficulty adjustment algorithm. It returns the difficulty that a new block should have when created at time given the parent block's time and difficulty.

func (*VBGash) Close 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Close() error

Close closes the exit channel to notify all backend threads exiting.

func (*VBGash) Finalize 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Finalize(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, header *types.Header, state *state.StateDB, txs []*types.Transaction, uncles []*types.Header)

Finalize implements consensus.Engine, accumulating the block and uncle rewards, setting the final state on the header

func (*VBGash) FinalizeAndAssemble 

func (VBGash *VBGash) FinalizeAndAssemble(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, header *types.Header, state *state.StateDB, txs []*types.Transaction, uncles []*types.Header, receipts []*types.Receipt) (*types.Block, error)

FinalizeAndAssemble implements consensus.Engine, accumulating the block and uncle rewards, setting the final state and assembling the block.

func (*VBGash) Hashrate 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Hashrate() float64

Hashrate implements PoW, returning the measured rate of the search invocations per second over the last minute. Note the returned hashrate includes local hashrate, but also includes the total hashrate of all remote miner.

func (*VBGash) Prepare 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Prepare(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, header *types.Header) error

Prepare implements consensus.Engine, initializing the difficulty field of a header to conform to the VBGash protocol. The changes are done inline.

func (*VBGash) Seal 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Seal(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, block *types.Block, results chan<- *types.Block, stop <-chan struct{}) error

Seal implements consensus.Engine, attempting to find a nonce that satisfies the block's difficulty requirements.

func (*VBGash) SealHash 

func (VBGash *VBGash) SealHash(header *types.Header) (hash common.Hash)

SealHash returns the hash of a block prior to it being sealed.

func (*VBGash) SetThreads 

func (VBGash *VBGash) SetThreads(threads int)

SetThreads updates the number of mining threads currently enabled. Calling this mVBGod does not start mining, only sets the thread count. If zero is specified, the miner will use all cores of the machine. Setting a thread count below zero is allowed and will cause the miner to idle, without any work being done.

func (*VBGash) Threads 

func (VBGash *VBGash) Threads() int

Threads returns the number of mining threads currently enabled. This doesn't necessarily mean that mining is running!

func (*VBGash) VerifyHeader 

func (VBGash *VBGash) VerifyHeader(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, header *types.Header, seal bool) error

VerifyHeader checks whVBGer a header conforms to the consensus rules of the stock vbgloble VBGash engine.

func (VBGash *VBGash) VerifyHeaders(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, headers []*types.Header, seals []bool) (chan<- struct{}, <-chan error)

VerifyHeaders is similar to VerifyHeader, but verifies a batch of headers concurrently. The mVBGod returns a quit channel to abort the operations and a results channel to retrieve the async verifications.

func (*VBGash) VerifySeal 

func (VBGash *VBGash) VerifySeal(chain consensus.ChainHeaderReader, header *types.Header) error

VerifySeal implements consensus.Engine, checking whVBGer the given block satisfies the PoW difficulty requirements.
