It was improperly implemented, as it assumed rounds had a constant time
interval, which they do not. It also is against the spec and was meant to
absolve us of issues with poor performance when post-starting blockchains. The
new, and much more proper, workaround for the latter is a 120-second delay
between the Substrate time and the Tributary start time.
It's largely unoptimized, and not yet exclusive to validators, yet has basic
sanity (using message content for ID instead of sender + index).
Fixes bugs as found. Notably, we used a time in milliseconds where the
Tributary expected seconds.
Also has Tributary::new jump to the presumed round number. This reduces slashes
when starting new chains (whose times will be before the current time) and was
the only way I was able to observe successful confirmations given current
surrounding infrastructure.
We had a race condition where'd we be informed of blocks 1 .. 3, and
immediately add 1 .. 3. Because we immediately tried to add 2 after 1, it'd
fail since the tip was still the genesis, yet 2 needs the tip to be 1.
Adding a channel, while ugly, was the simplest way to accomplish this.
Also has any added block be broadcasted. Else there's a race condition where a
node which syncs up to the most recent block does so, yet fails to add the next
block when it's committed to.
This defines the tart of a very complex series of locks I'm really unhappy
with. At the same time, there's not immediately a better solution. This also
should work without issue.
Impls a LocalP2p for testing.
Moves rebroadcasting into Tendermint, since it's what knows if a message is
fully valid + original.
Removes TributarySpec::validators() HashMap, as its non-determinism caused
different instances to have different round robin schedules. It was already
prior moved to a Vec for this issue, so I'm unsure why this remnant existed.
Also renames the GH no-std workflow from the prior commit.
Step moved a step forward after an externally synced/added block. This created
a race condition to add the block between the sync process and the Tendermint
machine. Now that the block routes through Tendermint, there is no such race
condition.
