Detailed Description

Chainstate stores and provides an API to update our local knowledge of the current best chain.

Eventually, the API here is targeted at being exposed externally as a consumable libconsensus library, so any functions added must only call other class member functions, pure functions in other parts of the consensus library, callbacks via the validation interface, or read/write-to-disk functions (eventually this will also be via callbacks).

Anything that is contingent on the current tip of the chain is stored here, whereas block information and metadata independent of the current tip is kept in BlockManager.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Chainstate()

Chainstate::Chainstate	(	CTxMemPool *	mempool,
		node::BlockManager &	blockman,
		ChainstateManager &	chainman,
		std::optional< BlockHash >	from_snapshot_blockhash = `std::nullopt`
	)

Member Function Documentation

◆ AcceptBlock()

bool Chainstate::AcceptBlock	(	const std::shared_ptr< const CBlock > &	pblock,
		BlockValidationState &	state,
		bool	fRequested,
		const FlatFilePos *	dbp,
		bool *	fNewBlock,
		bool	min_pow_checked
	)

Store a block on disk.

Parameters

[in,out]	pblock	The block we want to accept.
[in]	fRequested	A boolean to indicate if this block was requested from our peers.
[in]	dbp	If non-null, the disk position of the block.
[in,out]	fNewBlock	True if block was first received via this call.
[in]	min_pow_checked	True if proof-of-work anti-DoS checks have been done by caller for headers chain

Returns: True if the block is accepted as a valid block and written to disk.

◆ ActivateBestChain()

bool Chainstate::ActivateBestChain	(	BlockValidationState &	state,
		std::shared_ptr< const CBlock >	pblock = `nullptr`,
		avalanche::Processor *const	avalanche = `nullptr`,
		bool	skip_checkblockindex = `false`
	)

Find the best known block, and make it the tip of the block chain.

The result is either failure or an activated best chain. pblock is either nullptr or a pointer to a block that is already loaded (to avoid loading it again from disk).

ActivateBestChain is split into steps (see ActivateBestChainStep) so that we avoid holding cs_main for an extended period of time; the length of this call may be quite long during reindexing or a substantial reorg.

May not be called with cs_main held. May not be called in a validationinterface callback.

Note that if this is called while a snapshot chainstate is active, and if it is called on a background chainstate whose tip has reached the base block of the snapshot, its execution will take MINUTES while it hashes the background UTXO set to verify the assumeutxo value the snapshot was activated with. cs_main will be held during this time.

Parameters

[in] skip_checkblockindex (optional) If true, skip calling CheckBlockIndex even if -checkblockindex is true. If false (default behavior), respect the -checkblockindex arg. This is used in tests when we need to skip the checks only temporarily, and resume normal behavior later.

Returns: true unless a system error occurred

		DisconnectedBlockTransactions &	disconnectpool,
		const avalanche::Processor *const	avalanche = `nullptr`
	)

private

Connect a new block to m_chain.

pblock is either nullptr or a pointer to a CBlock corresponding to pindexNew, to bypass loading it again from disk.

The block is valid by consensus rules so now we check if the block passes all block policy checks. If not, then park the block and bail.

We check block parking policies before flushing changes to the UTXO set. This allows us to avoid rewinding everything immediately after.

Only check block parking policies the first time the block is connected. Avalanche voting can override the parking decision made by these policies.

Disconnect m_chain's tip.

After calling, the mempool will be in an inconsistent state, with transactions from disconnected blocks being added to disconnectpool. You should make the mempool consistent again by calling updateMempoolForReorg. with cs_main held.

If disconnectpool is nullptr, then no disconnected transactions are added to disconnectpool (note that the caller is responsible for mempool consistency in any case).

Update the on-disk chain state.

The caches and indexes are flushed depending on the mode we're called with if they're too large, if it's been a while since the last write, or always and in all cases if we're in prune mode and are deleting files.

If FlushStateMode::NONE is used, then FlushStateToDisk(...) won't do anything besides checking if we need to prune.

bool m_disabled Chainstate::GUARDED_BY ( ::cs_main )

inlineprotected

This toggle exists for use when doing background validation for UTXO snapshots.

In the expected case, it is set once the background validation chain reaches the same height as the base of the snapshot and its UTXO set is found to hash to the expected assumeutxo value. It signals that we should no longer connect blocks to the background chainstate. When set on the background validation chainstate, it signifies that we have fully validated the snapshot chainstate.

In the unlikely case that the snapshot chainstate is found to be invalid, this is set to true on the snapshot chainstate.

		FlatFilePos *	dbp = `nullptr`,
		std::multimap< BlockHash, FlatFilePos > *	blocks_with_unknown_parent = `nullptr`,
		avalanche::Processor *const	avalanche = `nullptr`
	)

Resize the CoinsViews caches dynamically and flush state to disk.

Returns: true unless an error occurred during the flush. Import blocks from an external file

During reindexing, this function is called for each block file (datadir/blocks/blk?????.dat). It reads all blocks contained in the given file and attempts to process them (add them to the block index). The blocks may be out of order within each file and across files. Often this function reads a block but finds that its parent hasn't been read yet, so the block can't be processed yet. The function will add an entry to the blocks_with_unknown_parent map (which is passed as an argument), so that when the block's parent is later read and processed, this function can re-read the child block from disk and process it.

Because a block's parent may be in a later file, not just later in the same file, the blocks_with_unknown_parent map must be passed in and out with each call. It's a multimap, rather than just a map, because multiple blocks may have the same parent (when chain splits or stale blocks exist). It maps from parent-hash to child-disk-position.

This function can also be used to read blocks from user-specified block files using the -loadblock= option. There's no unknown-parent tracking, so the last two arguments are omitted.

Parameters

[in]	fileIn	FILE handle to file containing blocks to read
[in]	dbp	(optional) Disk block position (only for reindex)
[in,out]	blocks_with_unknown_parent	(optional) Map of disk positions for blocks with unknown parent, key is parent block hash (only used for reindex)
