* Refactor so that RetryLimit::Future is std::marker::Sync
* Make the syncer future std::marker::Send by spawning tips futures
* Download synced blocks in chain order, not HashSet order
* Improve MockService failure messages
* Add closure-based responses to the MockService API
* Move MockChainTip to zebra-chain
* Add a MockChainTipSender type alias
* Support MockChainTip in ChainSync and its downloader
* Add syncer tests for obtain tips, extend tips, and wrong block hashes
* Add block too high tests for obtain tips and extend tips
* Add syncer tests for duplicate FindBlocks response hashes
* Allow longer request delays for mocked services in syncer tests
* Tweak crawler timings so peers are more likely to be available
* Tweak min peer connection interval so we try all peers
* Let other tasks run between fanouts, so we're more likely to choose different peers
* Let other tasks run between retries, so we're more likely to choose different peers
* Let other tasks run after peer crawler DemandDrop
This makes it more likely that peers will become ready.
* checkpoint: reject older of duplicate verification requests.
If we get a duplicate block verification request, we should drop the older one
in favor of the newer one, because the older request is likely to have been
canceled. Previously, this code would accept up to four duplicate verification
requests, then fail all subsequent ones.
* sync: add a timeout layer to block requests.
Note that if this timeout is too short, we'll bring down the peer set in a
retry storm.
* sync: restart syncing on error
Restart the syncing process when an error occurs, rather than ignoring it.
Restarting means we discard all tips and start over with a new block locator,
so we can have another chance to "unstuck" ourselves.
* sync: additional debug info
* sync: handle lookahead limit correctly.
Instead of extracting all the completed task results, the previous code pulled
results out until there were fewer tasks than the lookahead limit, then
stopped. This meant that completed tasks could be left until the limit was
exceeded again. Instead, extract all completed results, and use the number of
pending tasks to decide whether to extend the tip or wait for blocks to finish.
* network: add debug instrumentation to retry policy
* sync: instrument the spawned task
* sync: streamline ObtainTips/ExtendTips logic & tracing
This change does three things:
1. It aligns the implementation of ObtainTips and ExtendTips so that they use
the same deduplication method. This means that when debugging we only have one
deduplication algorithm to focus on.
2. It streamlines the tracing output to not include information already
included in spans. Both obtain_tips and extend_tips have their own spans
attached to the events, so it's not necessary to add Scope: prefixes in
messages.
3. It changes the messages to be focused on reporting the actual
events rather than the interpretation of the events (e.g., "got genesis hash in
response" rather than "peer could not extend tip"). The motivation for this
change is that when debugging, the interpretation of events is already known to
be incorrect, in the sense that the mental model of the code (no bug) does not
match its behavior (has bug), so presenting minimally-interpreted events forces
interpretation relative to the actual code.
* sync: hack to work around zcashd behavior
* sync: localize debug statement in extend_tips
* sync: change algorithm to define tips as pairs of hashes.
This is different enough from the existing description that its comments no
longer apply, so I removed them. A further chunk of work is to change the sync
RFC to document this algorithm.
* sync: reduce block timeout
* state: add resource limits for sled
Closes#888
* sync: add a restart timeout constant
* sync: de-pub constants
