Upstream commit 7fac099bee.
Also, the merge commit contains the necessary decred-specific
alterations, adds a new policy parameter for AllowOldVotes to keep with
the spirit of the merged commit, modifies the RawMempoolVerbose to
accept an optional filter type to retain that functionality, and various
other cleanup intended to bring the code bases more in line with one
another.
This does the minimum work necessary to refactor the mempool code into
its own package. The idea is that separating this code into its own
package will greatly improve its testability, allow independent
benchmarking and profiling, and open up some interesting opportunities
for future development related to the memory pool.
There are likely some areas related to policy that could be further
refactored, however it is better to do that in future commits in order
to keep the changeset as small as possible during this refactor.
Overview of the major changes:
- Create the new package
- Move several files into the new package:
- mempool.go -> mempool/mempool.go
- mempoolerror.go -> mempool/error.go
- policy.go -> mempool/policy.go
- policy_test.go -> mempool/policy_test.go
- Update mempool logging to use the new mempool package logger
- Rename mempoolPolicy to Policy (so it's now mempool.Policy)
- Rename mempoolConfig to Config (so it's now mempool.Config)
- Rename mempoolTxDesc to TxDesc (so it's now mempool.TxDesc)
- Rename txMemPool to TxPool (so it's now mempool.TxPool)
- Move defaultBlockPrioritySize to the new package and export it
- Export DefaultMinRelayTxFee from the mempool package
- Export the CalcPriority function from the mempool package
- Introduce a new RawMempoolVerbose function on the TxPool and update
the RPC server to use it
- Update all references to the mempool to use the package.
- Add a skeleton README.md
