Coordinator
The coordinator is a service which communicates with all of the processors, all of the other coordinators over a secondary P2P network, and with the Serai node.
This document primarily details its flow with regards to the Serai node and processor.
New Set Event
On validator_sets::pallet::Event::NewSet, the coordinator spawns a tributary
for the new set. It additionally sends the processor
key_gen::CoordinatorMessage::GenerateKey.
Key Generation Event
On validator_sets::pallet::Event::KeyGen, the coordinator sends
substrate::CoordinatorMessage::ConfirmKeyPair to the processor.
Batch
On substrate::ProcessorMessage::Batch, the coordinator notes what the on-chain
Batch should be, for verification once published.
SignedBatch
On substrate::ProcessorMessage::SignedBatch, the coordinator publishes an
unsigned transaction containing the signed batch to the Serai blockchain.
Sign Completed
On sign::ProcessorMessage::Completed, the coordinator makes a tributary
transaction containing the transaction hash the signing process was supposedly
completed with.
Due to rushing adversaries, the actual transaction completing the plan may be distinct on-chain. These messages solely exist to coordinate the signing process, not to determine chain state.
