Closes #1798 This is done by making every mempool tx maintain a list of peers who its received the tx from. Instead of using the 20byte peer ID, it instead uses a local map from peerID to uint16 counter, so every peer adds 2 bytes. (Word aligned to probably make it 8 bytes) This also required resetting the callback function on every CheckTx. This likely has performance ramifications for instruction caching. The actual setting operation isn't costly with the removal of defers in this PR. * Make the mempool not gossip txs back to peers its received it from * Fix adversarial memleak * Don't break interface * Update changelog * Forgot to add a mtx * forgot a mutex * Update mempool/reactor.go Co-Authored-By: ValarDragon <ValarDragon@users.noreply.github.com> * Update mempool/mempool.go Co-Authored-By: ValarDragon <ValarDragon@users.noreply.github.com> * Use unknown peer ID Co-Authored-By: ValarDragon <ValarDragon@users.noreply.github.com> * fix compilation * use next wait chan logic when skipping * Minor fixes * Add TxInfo * Add reverse map * Make activeID's auto-reserve 0 * 0 -> UnknownPeerID Co-Authored-By: ValarDragon <ValarDragon@users.noreply.github.com> * Switch to making the normal case set a callback on the reqres object The recheck case is still done via the global callback, and stats are also set via global callback * fix merge conflict * Addres comments * Add cache tests * add cache tests * minor fixes * update metrics in reqResCb and reformat code * goimport -w mempool/reactor.go * mempool: update memTx senders I had to introduce txsMap for quick mempoolTx lookups. * change senders type from []uint16 to sync.Map Fixes DATA RACE: ``` Read at 0x00c0013fcd3a by goroutine 183: github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool.(*MempoolReactor).broadcastTxRoutine() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool/reactor.go:195 +0x3c7 Previous write at 0x00c0013fcd3a by D[2019-02-27|10:10:49.058] Read PacketMsg switch=3 peer=35bc1e3558c182927b31987eeff3feb3d58a0fc5@127.0.0.1 :46552 conn=MConn{pipe} packet="PacketMsg{30:2B06579D0A143EB78F3D3299DE8213A51D4E11FB05ACE4D6A14F T:1}" goroutine 190: github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool.(*Mempool).CheckTxWithInfo() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool/mempool.go:387 +0xdc1 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool.(*MempoolReactor).Receive() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool/reactor.go:134 +0xb04 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.createMConnection.func1() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/peer.go:374 +0x25b github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/conn.(*MConnection).recvRoutine() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/conn/connection.go:599 +0xcce Goroutine 183 (running) created at: D[2019-02-27|10:10:49.058] Send switch=2 peer=1efafad5443abeea4b7a8155218e4369525d987e@127.0.0.1:46193 channel=48 conn=MConn{pipe} m sgBytes=2B06579D0A146194480ADAE00C2836ED7125FEE65C1D9DD51049 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool.(*MempoolReactor).AddPeer() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/mempool/reactor.go:105 +0x1b1 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*Switch).startInitPeer() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/switch.go:683 +0x13b github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*Switch).addPeer() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/switch.go:650 +0x585 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*Switch).addPeerWithConnection() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/test_util.go:145 +0x939 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.Connect2Switches.func2() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/test_util.go:109 +0x50 I[2019-02-27|10:10:49.058] Added good transaction validator=0 tx=43B4D1F0F03460BD262835C4AA560DB860CFBBE85BD02386D83DAC38C67B3AD7 res="&{CheckTx:gas_w anted:1 }" height=0 total=375 Goroutine 190 (running) created at: github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/conn.(*MConnection).OnStart() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/conn/connection.go:210 +0x313 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/libs/common.(*BaseService).Start() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/libs/common/service.go:139 +0x4df github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*peer).OnStart() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p/peer.go:179 +0x56 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/libs/common.(*BaseService).Start() /go/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint/libs/common/service.go:139 +0x4df github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*peer).Start() <autogenerated>:1 +0x43 github.com/tendermint/tendermint/p2p.(*Switch).startInitPeer() ``` * explain the choice of a map DS for senders * extract ids pool/mapper to a separate struct * fix literal copies lock value from senders: sync.Map contains sync.Mutex * use sync.Map#LoadOrStore instead of Load * fixes after Ismail's review * rename resCbNormal to resCbFirstTime
Tendermint
Byzantine-Fault Tolerant State Machines. Or Blockchain, for short.
Branch | Tests | Coverage |
---|---|---|
master | ||
develop |
Tendermint Core is Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) middleware that takes a state transition machine - written in any programming language - and securely replicates it on many machines.
For protocol details, see the specification.
For detailed analysis of the consensus protocol, including safety and liveness proofs, see our recent paper, "The latest gossip on BFT consensus".
A Note on Production Readiness
While Tendermint is being used in production in private, permissioned environments, we are still working actively to harden and audit it in preparation for use in public blockchains, such as the Cosmos Network. We are also still making breaking changes to the protocol and the APIs. Thus, we tag the releases as alpha software.
In any case, if you intend to run Tendermint in production, please contact us and join the chat.

Versioning
Semantic Versioning
Tendermint uses Semantic Versioning to determine when and how the version changes. According to SemVer, anything in the public API can change at any time before version 1.0.0
To provide some stability to Tendermint users in these 0.X.X days, the MINOR version is used to signal breaking changes across a subset of the total public API. This subset includes all interfaces exposed to other processes (cli, rpc, p2p, etc.), but does not include the in-process Go APIs.
That said, breaking changes in the following packages will be documented in the CHANGELOG even if they don't lead to MINOR version bumps:
- crypto
- types
- rpc/client
- config
- node
- libs
- bech32
- common
- db
- errors
- log
Exported objects in these packages that are not covered by the versioning scheme
are explicitly marked by // UNSTABLE
in their go doc comment and may change at any
time without notice. Functions, types, and values in any other package may also change at any time.
Upgrades
In an effort to avoid accumulating technical debt prior to 1.0.0, we do not guarantee that breaking changes (ie. bumps in the MINOR version) will work with existing tendermint blockchains. In these cases you will have to start a new blockchain, or write something custom to get the old data into the new chain.
However, any bump in the PATCH version should be compatible with existing histories (if not please open an issue).
For more information on upgrading, see UPGRADING.md
