This implements the getchaintips JSON-RPC and updates the associated
JSON-RPC API documentation accordingly.
It should be noted that until the entire block index is loaded into
memory, the chain tips tracking currently only works with tips that have
been seen since the daemon was started.
this adds a collection of summary total fields to the GetBalanceResult
struct which allows providing a summary of totals for all wallet
accounts when using `getbalance "*"`.
Considering that there is no method for getseed and also that your seed should be saved at wallet creation it seems best to get rid of getseed type and instance function.
modifications to the stakebase tx vin[0] required adding a stakebase
field to Vin and VinPrevOut structs as well as updating the
rpc documentation for the affected calls.
This renames the chaincfg parameter for the vote choice which represents
an abstaining vote to be named IsAbstain instead of IsIgnore since that
more accurately describes its intent and behavior.
It also updates the RPC server choice result field for isignore to be
named isabstain to match and bumps the major version accordingly.
Finally, it renames other internal variables which make use of the
choice to include the word abstain as well for clarity and renames a
couple of other internal variables.
Make GetBlockHeaderVerboseResult and GetBlockVerboseResult return
Confirmations as -1 when we are dealing with an orphan block.
While here fix confirmations in the createTxRawResult call as well.
Every user of GetBlockHeaderVerboseResult, GetBlockVerboseResult and
TxRawResult MUST change the Confirmations field to int64!
The RPCs that are affected are getblock, getblockheader and
getrawtransaction.
Propagate version and bits on the getstakeversions call. Now we can
interrogate all raw vote version/bits data in addition to cooked values.
Diff is mostly mechanical exporting the Version:Bits tuple.
The getstakeversioninfo command returns vote and stake versions tally
for N intervals. It does always start with the current top of the chain
and counts backwards.
With this change we can keep the version and the bits in blockNode.
This is used to fix an oversight where we weren't strictly enforcing
the vote version. This also adds tests that validate quorum-1, quorum,
75%-1 and 75% rules during tallying.
Also adjust getvoteinfo totals to only return the specified vote version
totals.
Port BIP0009 over from btcd. The following is an overview of the
changes:
- Add new configuration options to the chaincfg package which allows the
rule deployments to be defined per chain
- Implement code to calculate the threshold state as required by voting
- Use threshold state caches that are stored to the database in order
to accelerate startup time
- Remove caches that are invalid due to definition changes in the
params including additions, deletions, and changes to existing
entries
- Verify that PoW and PoS majorities have been reached.
- Add tests for new error type
- Add tests for threshold state
- Deployments are per stake version.
- Add human readable vote/choice infrastructure.
- Add RPC command to interrogate vote status (getvoteinfo).
