The `unreachable_pub` lint makes us aware of uses of `pub` that are not actually reachable from the crate root. This is considered good because it means reading a `pub` somewhere means it is actually public API. Some of our crates are quite large and keeping their entire API surface in your head is difficult.
We should strive for most items being `pub(crate)`. This lint helps us enforce that.
Pull-Request: #3735.
Instead of relying on `protoc` and buildscripts, we generate the bindings using `pb-rs` and version them within our codebase. This makes for a better IDE integration, a faster build and an easier use of `rust-libp2p` because we don't force the `protoc` dependency onto them.
Resolves#3024.
Pull-Request: #3312.
This commit upgrades the current gossipsub implementation to support the [v1.1
spec](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md).
It adds a number of features, bug fixes and performance improvements.
Besides support for all new 1.1 features, other improvements that are of particular note:
- Improved duplicate LRU-time cache (this was previously a severe bottleneck for
large message throughput topics)
- Extended message validation configuration options
- Arbitrary topics (users can now implement their own hashing schemes)
- Improved message validation handling - Invalid messages are no longer dropped
but sent to the behaviour for application-level processing (including scoring)
- Support for floodsub, gossipsub v1 and gossipsub v2
- Protobuf encoding has been shifted into the behaviour. This has permitted two
improvements:
1. Message size verification during publishing (report to the user if the
message is too large before attempting to send).
2. Message fragmentation. If an RPC is too large it is fragmented into its
sub components and sent in smaller chunks.
Additional Notes
The peer eXchange protocol defined in the v1.1 spec is inactive in its current
form. The current implementation permits sending `PeerId` in `PRUNE` messages,
however a `PeerId` is not sufficient to form a new connection to a peer. A
`Signed Address Record` is required to safely transmit peer identity
information. Once these are confirmed (https://github.com/libp2p/specs/pull/217)
a future PR will implement these and make PX usable.
